So Samuel said: "Has the LORD as great delight in burnt offerings and sacrifices, as in obeying the voice of the LORD? Behold, to obey is better than sacrifice, And to heed than the fat of rams.” (1 Samuel 15:22)
- It is one thing to worship and praise God at church.
- It is quite another to move out into the real world and worship Him through daily obedience.
- Do we confine our worship to church?
- Or do we continue to worship Him by obeying Him in our daily life, looking for opportunities to serve?
- Saul was asked by the Lord to do a task.
- But he used worship (sacrifice) as an excuse for his failure to obey God.
- God’s response was, “To obey is better than sacrifice”.
- It is good to be involved in worship at church.
- But let us also ask God to show us ways to continue to give Him the praise He deserves through our obedience.
- May our worship of God extend beyond the walls of our church.
- May we listen to God’s prompting and serve others wherever we can, no matter what day it is.
- Our worship should not be confined to times and places.
- It should be the spirit of our lives.
