YOU_ARE_THE_PLACE_TO_WORSHIP_GOD

Our worship to God is not time, day or place restricted. In other words, you don't need a time, day or place to worship the Father (God). You don't need a well decorated building neither do you need any mountain before you can worship God. It is a big lie to think or believe that God responds quickly to worship at a particular time, day or place. Religion has corrupted many minds and destroyed many souls. Please if you are a victim, then the time is now to unlearn and relearn.

Many people lack the knowledge behind the death of Jesus. Or you think what happened on the cross was just for forgiveness of sin? The purpose of Jesus' death on the cross goes beyond forgiveness. Jesus fixed our broken relationship with God on the cross. He made our encounter with the Father so simple. He broke every barrier between God and us by His blood. So nothing can hinder us from seeing God apart from UNBELIEF. No more do we need even priests and not to talk of a particular building or place before we can worship God.

Before Christ, God's Spirit dwelt in the Ark in the tabernacle made by man. And only priests were allowed in there even on conditions (Hebrews 9). Obviously, worship of God was restricted. However, from the time Jesus gave up His spirit on the cross until now God's Spirit dwells not in the Ark anymore but in anyone who believes in the Gospel. God's Spirit has left the Ark two thousand years ago and now dwells in believers in Christ Jesus. Let's read:

Matthew 27:50-51 (NKJV)
50 And Jesus cried out again with a loud voice, and yielded up His spirit.
51 Then, behold, the veil of the temple was torn in two from top to bottom; and the earth quaked, and the rocks were split,

Acts 2:2-4 (NKJV)
2 And suddenly there came a sound from heaven, as of a rushing mighty wind, and it filled the whole house where they were sitting.
3 Then there appeared to them divided tongues, as of fire, and one sat upon each of them.
4 And they were all filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them utterance.

You see that? Now our worship is not restricted to Jerusalem where the Ark of God was. We are now the chosen Ark of God. If you believe in Christ, you're God's sanctuary. You're His temple. Switch from the Old testament worship to the New testament worship. Christ Jesus is the new testament.

Don't waste your precious time and energy searching for place to worship God. Your are the place. I said, you are the place to worship God. You can meet (fellowship) with other believers at any day or place that suits you to study God's Word and encourage each other. Religious people are those debating on the motion, "Which day is a right day to worship, Saturday or Sunday?"

Don't be restricted by what religion has taught. Nothing restricts anyone from worshiping God apart from unbelief in Christ. Going to your denomination at specific times and days is not the definition of worship. Worship is appreciating the presence (Spirit) of God in you. You're a walking temple full of set of instruments for worship. Worship because you carry God's Spirit. Worship for you're His presence. Worship the Father anytime, any day, and anyplace in spirit and in truth.

Let's conclude by reading what transpired between a religious woman and Jesus,

John 4:19-24 (NKJV)
19 The woman said to Him, “Sir, I perceive that You are a prophet.
20 Our fathers worshiped on this MOUNTAIN, and you Jews say that in JERUSALEM is the place where one ought to worship.”
21 Jesus said to her, “Woman, believe Me, the hour is coming when you will NEITHER ON THIS MOUNTAIN, NOR IN JERUSALEM, WORSHIP THE FATHER.
22 You worship what you do not know; we know what we worship, for salvation is of the Jews.
23 But the hour is coming, and NOW IS, WHEN THE TRUE WORSHIPERS WILL WORSHIP THE FATHER IN SPIRIT AND TRUTH; FOR THE FATHER IS SEEKING SUCH TO WORSHIP HIM.
24 God is Spirit, and those who worship Him must worship in spirit and truth.”

Stay inspired and blessed!
