WEEK 1


What would you like to gain from this study?

I encourage you to begin each session with prayer, asking the Father to reveal what He desires from you in regard to worship and your relationship to Him. Because prayer is an essential part of worship, spend at least 5 -10 minutes in prayer before you continue.

Take a few minutes to answer the questions below. Plan to share your answers with your group . When the study is finished you will be asked to answer these questions again and to compare the two results.

In your own words give your definition of worship.

"Let everything that hath breath praise the Lord"

What is the place of worship in a Christian's life as you understand it?



What is the place of worship in your life now?



"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." John 4:23



What does this verse mean to you? What does the Lord want from each of us more than anything else?



Do you feel you are a worshiper?


Yes
No
Not Sure


The Father is not seeking worship itself, but worshipers. When we offer our worship to the Father it is not worship He seeks but the interactive relationship with His children. In John 4:23, the word "seeking" is zeteo in the Greek. In its context it has the added connotation of "require" or "demand." So our Father is requiring or demanding us to worship Him in spirit and truth.
