DO IT IN HIS WAY

TEXT: Leviticus 17:1-7

KEY VERSE:

“And they shall no more offer their sacrifices unto devils, after whom they have gone a whoring. This shall be a statute for ever unto them throughout their generations.” – (Leviticus 17:7).

In the book, Habits of the Heart, Robert Bellah and his colleagues interviewed a young nurse who represents the experience and views of the modern man about his relationship with God. Her thinking emphasises an individualistic way of coming to God, where everyone does according to their own preferences and offers their services anywhere it pleases them. This approach dominates spirituality in the modern world, yet it is not the biblical pattern of becoming right with God.

God established the proper place for the children of Israel to bring their sacrifices: the tabernacle of meeting. To worship and honour Him, an Israelite could not simply be individualistic and follow his heart, feelings or opinions. They were not permitted to slaughter their sacrificial animals outside the camp. It must be done with an officiating priest. Those who did not comply would be regarded as sacrificing “unto devils, after whom they have gone a whoring.”

Service to God in worship through the talents, skill and time, which believers offer are incomplete until we present them where He exercises His unquestionable prerogative to choose for us. We may claim to be the possessors of these resources; but man would miss the latent blessings of worship through them if he does not submit to the approval of the One who would decree the blessings He has appointed His Church for corporate worship.

Man should honour his Creator in the place of the Lord’s choice of worship in order not to be “cut off” from His presence. Christians in the modern age must not be carried away by the doctrine of religious libertarianism, which says God is everywhere and can be worshipped everywhere, including dance halls and gambling centres. God is not present there, even if your lavish offerings are brought there.

THOUGHT FOR THE DAY:

Let your worship be in His way.
