God is Spirit, and His worshipers must worship in spirit and in truth.
Bowing down, raising hands, singing praises-there are innumerable forms of worship throughout the world. Some groups worship on certain days of the week or during particular months of the year. There are people who believe they should only worship in a certain location and those who feel they have the freedom to worship anywhere in the world. While many individuals take worship very seriously, others are rather lukewarm in their approach to worship. The most important question concerning worship, however, is not how you worship, when you worship, or where you worship. The vital question surrounding worship is distinctly, Who do you worship?
God is the only One we should worship. The time to worship Him is now. Jesus said, ‘The time is coming-indeed it’s here now-when true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and in truth. The Father is looking for those who will worship him that way’ (John 4:23). God is seeking individuals who will glorify Him through everything they do. Worship is not a spectator sport. Worship is a way of life. Our purpose on this earth is to bring glory to our Creator as we worship Him in spirit and in truth!
Worshiping God in Spirit and in Truth is a book that will enlighten your understanding as to what God desires, but also inspire your heart to live a life filled with praise.

In Worshiping God in Spirit and in Truth, we are reminded that worship is not a show put on by an entertaining band on a Sunday morning. It is about establishing a genuine connection with the only One who deserves our praise. Almighty God, shake us and stir us, as we allow You to shift us from the status quo, and let this generation truly worship You in spirit and in truth.
- Pastor Eddie Luke, Sanderson Christian Revival Center
