‘All places are places of worship to the Christian. Wherever he is, he ought to be in a worshiping frame of mind.’ – Charles Spurgeon
As Christ was torn on the cross, so was the curtain (Matt 27:51). Christ was torn and God’s people are welcomed through Christ into the presence of the Father (Eph 2:18). Worship not in a location – but in Spirit and Truth (Jn 4:24).
Every Christ follower is now a sanctuary of worship, because we are Christ’s and Christ is God’s (1 Cor 3:23). Every sorrow and joy becomes an altar of sacrifice – a fragrance of gratitude and awe. And every inch of earth becomes holy ground, for we are surrounded in song, followed by goodness and mercy, and pursued by the endless delight of our Father (Zeph 3:17, Ps 23:6).
Jesus, it is You that we worship. And it is through You that we worship. Would you open our eyes to the sacred spaces of worship today – for You are worthy. In Your name we pray, amen.
Worshiping,
