Thoughts From the Word - Bob Morton
Which do you worship, which do you burn?
WE THINK IT IS FOOLISH the way that the ancient people used to worship gods. Even Isiah thought it was funny. He talks about a carver of wood that goes out and cuts down a tree.
"He burneth part thereof in the fire; with part thereof he eateth flesh; he roasteth roast, and is satisfied: yea, he warmeth himself, and saith, Aha, I am warm, I have seen the fire:
And the residue thereof he maketh a god, even his graven image: he falleth down unto it, and worshippeth it, and prayeth unto it, and saith, Deliver me; for thou art my god.
They have not known nor understood: for he hath shut their eyes, that they cannot see; and their hearts, that they cannot understand.
And none considereth in his heart, neither is there knowledge nor understanding to say, I have burned part of it in the fire; yea, also I have baked bread upon the coals thereof; I have roasted flesh, and eaten it: and shall I make the residue thereof an abomination? shall I fall down to the stock of a tree?"
Isaiah 44:16-19
I think it is funny. How did he know which part to cook with and which to carve? We would never do anything as stupid as this would we.
Where do we put our time? Do we compartmentalize our time? Is our time of worship relegated to a few minutes reading a devotional and Sunday mornings? How do you know when to worship God and when not to? God wants us to spend all of our time with Him in worship. It is not hard to do. Just be aware of Him as you go about your business. Talk to Him as if He is right there. He is you know. He wants to be with you more than you know.
Full of Joy
AND THESE THINGS WRITE we unto you, that your joy may be full.
1 John 1:4
God wants us to all have a good time. You do not have to take my word for that, take the word of John, the apostle that Jesus loved. He writes to us so that our joy can be full. Now many people will say, yes our joy will be full when we get to heaven. There we will be with Jesus and there will be no more sorrow. That to me is a bunch of garbage. Did not Jesus tell us in the sample prayer that things should be the same on earth as they are in
