“I wish one of you would close the Temple doors so that you would not light useless fires on my altar! I am not pleased with you and will not accept your gifts,” says the LORD All-Powerful. “From the east to the west I will be honored among the nations.

You say about the Lord’s altar, ‘It is unclean, and the food has no worth.’ You say, ‘We are tired of doing this,’ and you sniff at it in disgust,” says the LORD All-Powerful. “And you bring hurt, crippled, and sick animals as gifts.

I am a great king,” says the LORD All-Powerful, “and I am feared by all the nations.

If this is the definition of worship, then Jesus is the only one who deserves worship, no one else and nothing else. Worship is not just the songs we sing at church or the raising of our hands but worship as defined by the Bible is giving our lives as living sacrifice to God who is the object, the reason and the meaning of our worship.
