Words or Worshiper?

We must be careful not to lose sight of Who we believe in by

getting caught up in What we are doing. 

There is a vast difference in knowing Something, 

and experiencing Someone intimately.

Do we simply have the right Words 

or are we a true Worshiper?

What are the marks of those who are true worshipers?

They are those gazing intently upon the face of 

Jesus, focusing upon the glory of God being seen in 

Him. These are the ones being transformed into 

the very same image from glory to glory. This 

transformation will then be seen by all those in 

our life who know us well.

Worshipers are always the most dynamic 

witnesses because their testimonies are not 

mere theories but living demonstrations of the 

work of the Spirit of God in a life. 

This is what really amazes men about those who are 

filled with the Spirit of Jesus. It's not really words 

that attract them; instead, men are drawn to see is what 

has taken place in a life that has been transformed 

before their eyes. They are captivated by the visible fruit 

of righteousness produced by the abiding worshiper 

and it results in men glorifying the Father.

May we become so transformed in worshiping the Father 

and His Son that men begin to look in the same direction 

that they can see we are gazing. There they will see what 

has so captured our hearts and it will likely capture their own 

as well. ~Alan

mold your minds from within, so that you may prove in 

practice that the plan of God for you is good, meets all his 

demands and moves towards the goal of true maturity.”
