Called to Worship - August 24, 2008

August 24th - Called to worship: Pastor Kenny Koger
Worship is a lifestyle. Who you are and what you do, when it's directed to the love of God, is worship. Corporate worship at a church service is very important - but there is so much more to worshipping God. Isaiah 58 says "Is not this the kind of fasting I have chosen: to loose the chains of injustice and untie the cords of the yoke, to set the oppressed free and break every yoke. Is it not to share your food with the hungry and to provide the poor wanderer with shelter when you see the naked, to clothe him, and not to turn away from your own flesh and blood?" This passage is about true fasting - you could replace that with true prayer, true calling and true worship. When we are helping others to be free, breaking chains of hurt from people, sharing their physical needs - we are worshipping God indeed? What is the toothache or your heart? What injustices do you see that you feel something must be done about this? We are called to make a difference in peoples lives, and there is no truer expression of worship than doing just that...
