PRAY IN THE SPIRIT

Friday, October 29, 2010
Philippians 3:3
For we are the circumcision, who worship GOD in the spirit, and rejoice in Christ JESUS, and have no confidence in the flesh.

WORSHIP IN THE SPIRIT; LED BY THE SPIRIT

Deuteronomy 10 16,17 says: " Circumcise, therefore, the foreskin of your heart, and be no more stiff-necked. For the LORD your GOD is GOD of gods, and LORD of lords, a great GOD, a mighty, and an awesome, who regardeth not persons, nor taketh reward."

The circumcision of the heart is the opening of the door to pure worship. That foreskin of the heart is flesh that blocks the way for Spiritual Worship. GOD will not be fully honored and highly exalted until all fleshly blocks are removed. Our confidence must be in the Spirit and not in the flesh. Deuteronomy 10:20,21 says this: " Thou shalt fear the LORD thy GOD; Him shalt thou serve, and to Him shalt thou cleave, and swear by His Name. He is thy praise, and He is thy GOD, who hath done for thee these great and awe-inspiring things which thine eyes have seen." HE IS THE HOLY ONE.

When the heart worships, heaven hears and joins in the high praise of GOD. The Holy Spirit leads in worship and the Father and the Son are glorified. All prayer, all worship; all forms of prayer and all manner of worship must be in Spirit and in Truth. John 4:23,24 says: " But the hour cometh, and now is, when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and in truth; for the Father seeketh such to worship Him. GOD is a Spirit; and they that worship Him must worship Him in spirit and in truth."
