Everyday Worship

So… at first Romans 12:1 sounds a little weird. Does the New International Version of the Bible really say to, um, offer your bodies as a living sacrifice? That sounds a little creepy doesn’t it? But when you seriously think about it and look at it, it’s an awesome way to live life.

Because God send His Son, Jesus, to die for you—because God loves you so much—because God has done great things in our lives—our only natural response to all of that should be our everything. Our whole lives.

So what should living your life worshiping God all the time look like? It can be as intense as spending an hour every day in quiet time listening and talking to God. It can be something as simple as when you step out on the field or in the gym or on the stage, you thank God for what you get to do! You realize that it’s because of Him that you get to do it, and you want to do it so well because He’s allowed you to do it.

Worshiping God in your everyday life could look like befriending that kid at school everyone else makes fun of because you know God loves that kid just as much as He loves anyone else. Worshiping God in everyday life could look like setting an example for your siblings because you want to lead them in how you know God desires for you all to live.

The reality is, worshiping God and putting Him first will look different for each and every person. You need to spend time with God, pray to Him, and ask Him to show you what your life’s worship should look like. Pay attention to His leadings and promptings in your life, and respond to them. Learn to prioritize your life and put Him first. Think about Him often. Pay attention to the things God is doing in your life, and get excited about them—and share that excitement with others!

Worshiping God daily isn’t something you do. It’s the way you live.
