WORSHIP IS NOT ABOUT US—IT’S ABOUT HIM First, worship is not about us; it’s about Him. Do you really believe that? Perhaps we say, “Yes, I do believe that.” But what, then, happens when the worship leader announces a hymn that’s new to you or a song you don’t like? What happens when some element of Sunday’s worship service isn’t exactly to your preference? I want to tell you humbly and sincerely that if we focus more on the Object of our worship, we’ll be less agitated by the style of worship.

As members of God’s kingdom, we’re called to conquer the barriers between who we are and who God wants us to be. Our goal is to “come over” from where we are today, and to flourish as the person God made us to be. The obstacles we must overcome fall into three main categories: sin, the world, and the devil.

squandering his entire life in utterly selfish pursuits. He trembled, knowing he would soon face God’s judgment. But the pastor explained how Christ had paid the penalty for Joe’s sin, and on that basis, He offered forgiveness and eternal life if Joe would only receive it. Joe gladly accepted the gift and died in peace shortly afterward.8 Joe’s case is what we commonly call “deathbed repentance.” It is neither the most noble nor the safest way to come to Christ. But God, in His infinite love and desire to have us with Him throughout eternity, accepts even those who come in at the last minute. Jesus promised salvation

Even today, we must choose. Will we be marked as God’s own in our hearts and in our actions? Or will we be marked as Satan’s own? Will we stand for Christ, His Son, no matter the personal cost?

contrast between His first and second comings. He entered the world the first time in swaddling clothes; He will reign the second time in majestic purple. He came the first time as a weary traveler; He will return the second time as the untiring God. Once when He came, He had nowhere to lay His head;

When He comes back, He will be revealed as the heir of all things. Once He was rejected by tiny Israel; When He returns, He will be accepted by every single nation. Once He was a lowly Savior, acquainted with grief; Then He will be the mighty God, anointed with the oil of gladness.

Once He was smitten with a reed; Then He will rule the nations with a rod of iron. Once wicked soldiers bowed the knee in mockery; Then every knee will bow and every tongue confess that He is Lord. Once He received a crown of thorns; Then He will receive a crown of gold.

Quite often the Lord uses the adversity in our lives as a lens through which He can be seen! In the process of it all, He is developing our character so that we can be worthy reflectors of His glory. Paul teaches us that character cannot be developed in ease and quiet. Only through experiences of trials and suffering can the soul be strengthened.

Peter suggests that we never forget one fact: 'That with the Lord one day is as a thousand years, and a thousand years is as one day.' Translation: God sets His watch to a time zone not accessible to us. Once again we need to remember that He is the one who created time, like everything else, and He uses it for His own purposes. I like the little story about the foolishness of quantifying God's timing. A little boy asked God, 'How long is a second in heaven?' God said, 'One million years.' The boy asked, 'How much is a penny in heaven?' God answered, 'One million dollars.' The boy said, 'Could I have a penny?' To which God answered, 'In just a second.

We do not see into the world in which God lives, but He definitely sees into ours.

Like the many others who have suffered after him, Paul allowed his adversity to become a platform for the gospel. What the Enemy hoped would thwart the gospel actually advanced it. If for no other reason than this, we should think twice before we complain about our difficult situations. It just might be that God is up to something eternal!
