Passage: Malachi 1:6-14 Speaker: Pastor Lukus Counterman Series: Malachi
Speaker: Lukus Counterman - Have you ever found yourself just going through the motions when it comes to worshipping God? Maybe you read a passage of scripture in the morning simply because that’s your habit, but it’s become dry and boring. Perhaps you show up to church and it’s wearisome; you just try to endure for an hour and a half. I wonder if you’ve ever felt like your singing is even in a slump. Praise songs just don’t make the playlist these days. If you’ve ever struggled with worship, then the second half of Malachi chapter one is for you. God doesn’t want fake worship or hypocritical sacrifice. He doesn’t want praise to be a drudgery. He wants his people to receive his love and worship him wholeheartedly. May the Lord teach us about worship and help us offer the sacrifice of praise from our lips in a way that pleases him.
