Recently, I have started to consider in what ways that WOTO (Worship on the Outside) can take worship outside our normal Sunday routine. Don’t get me wrong. The corporate worship of God that takes place in the local church is very important, but I think we have become complacent and not willing to move beyond that once-a-week experience.
Obviously worship goes way beyond music, Sunday morning, etc… There is so much more to worshipping God in a Romans 12:1 kind of way. “Therefore, I urge you, brothers, in view of God’s mercy, to offer your bodies as living sacrifices, holy and pleasing to God—this is your spiritual act of worship”. This means that our act of worship is lived out in our everyday lives. We are living sacrifices!
Whether it be praising God through music, feeding the homeless, raising our kids, working at our jobs, etc…—our whole lives should be lived to glorify God!
Please pray with me for God to birth in us new, fresh and creative ways to step beyond our cozy and comfortable box that we call “worship” and begin to live it. What ways can you glorify and honor God today?
