    Revelation 15:3-4, " They sang the song of God's servant Moses and of the Lamb: Great and marvelous are your deeds, Lord God Almighty. Just and true are your ways, King of the nations. Who will not fear you, Lord, and bring glory to your name? For you alone are holy. All nations will come and worship before you, for your righteous acts have been revealed."

    Think

    "Everything we do, say, touch, and feel is an act of worship." Did you know that we're not supposed to come to church to worship? We're to come to church worshipp ing. Worship is more than words we sing, it's a lifestyle. Worship is responding to who God is and what he is doing in our lives and the lives of others. Revelation 15 describes events that will lead up to a time when God will carry out his final judgment. There are Christ-followers who have survived incredible battles and they break out in song, declaring the greatness of God. They acknowledge that God stands apart from everything because he is the creator of everything. He alone is to be worshipped and he alone will be worshipped when the final chapter of history is written. Pretty incredible stuff, isn't it? The Book of Revelation is important because it gives us a glimpse of an incredible story that is unfolding across the stage of history. It's a reminder that no matter what we face, God is the ultimate winner. And when we choose to obey him, we are choosing today to worship the God who will one day be worshipped by everyone.

    Act

    For the next 24 hours, consciously choose to worship God through your attitude, your decisions, your reactions. See how a lifestyle of worship changes your perspective!

    Pray

    Heavenly Father, I declare that you and you alone are my God. I want worship to be a lifestyle, not a once-a-week event. Help me to obey and honor you in everything I do this week. In Jesus' name, Amen.
