We are created to worship Him...!

Psalms 50:14-17 NKJV

Offer to God thanksgiving, And pay your vows to the Most High. Call upon Me in the day of trouble; I will deliver you, and you shall glorify Me.” But to the wicked God says: “What right have you to declare My statutes, Or take My covenant in your mouth, Seeing you hate instruction And cast My words behind you?

Shalom! Day #231. Do you know that the rights to declare the statutes of God is given to the children's of God and the wicked has no place in it? Let's pray. Father, we count it as a privilege to serve You and to be Your son's and daughter's. Thank You for giving us the privilege to come to You and offer our sacrifices. In Jesus name we ask and pray, amen!

The only reason we are created is to be the worshippers of God. The word worship I can explain in this term if you agree. The act of worshipping is an act devotion towards the things you love the most and you are willing to do anything for it. For example if you love your spouse, you would adore him/her, you would do anything so that they would look good. With this in mind, if you say you love God, you would do anything just  to be in His presence. Worshipping is an act of adoring God and proclaiming His wondrous works. Worship is not just in Sunday service, but it's a lifestyle. The act of thanksgiving is an act of worship. To us, the children's of God is given the privilege to come to Him and worship Him, to glorify Him, to magnify Him, to adore Him.

In today's verse we will learn something new, not out of doctrine, but it's biblical. I was shocked at first yet when I meditate on it, I then understood the context. It's written that  But to the wicked God says: “What right have you to declare My statutes, Or take My covenant in your mouth, Seeing you hate instruction And cast My words behind you?" The wicked people aren't given the privilege to proclaim the statutes of God. There's two categories of this wicked people.

1. Wicked people, unbelievers.
- The group of people are like the sons of Sceva. They tried to use the name of God to cast out demons and do many things yet their hearts was filled with wickedness and evil plots. They used the name of God for their own gain and what happened? The devil questioned them "Jesus I know, Paul I know, but who are you?" Even the devil knows whether you belongs to God or not. So to this group of people, God detest them. They have no right to proclaim and teach the statutes of God unless and until they confess their sins and accept Jesus as their Lord and Saviour.

2. People who know the truth yet they twist it for their gain.
- Now, this second group of people, they are the one who know the truth yet they twist it for their own benefits and gain. For example, wolf in the lambs skin. This people, they use a ministry or their titles (pastor, reverend, evangelist, and so on) for their financial gain. No, not all are like that. There are some of genuine heart. But some as I have encountered a few, using their ministry to gain financial support in the name of ministry. They declare that the Lord is this and that, but the fact is there's no signs and wonders are accompanied by their ministry. Yes, they do pray but there's no power in their prayers. Be aware of such wolves. This group of people they hate instructions and rebukes. They seem to have a heart to learn, but no. They aren't willing to be corrected. This are those who do ministry for the glorification of their name and ministry and God is left out of the picture.

Which category we are? Are we sincerely serving God or we fall into either one of the two categories? God bless you.

Let this day be the day of the Lord!
