			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Today I am trying to answer the question, Why should we worship God?  This is a hard question for me to answer, yet an easy one at the same  time. It is hard because I want to say, because he is God, duh&#8230; but I  know that for us reading this we want more out of the blog post then  just, because he is God.</p>
<p>Lets pause and think for a moment. Have you ever worshiped anything?  Anything at all. If you answered no to that question, than your lying.  How do I know, because we were created to be worshipers. When this world  began God created us to honor him as the king of the universe. The  first humans did that. They loved God and feared him. Until one day  when, well you know the story Adam and Eve ate the fruit and sin entered  the world and our worship became tainted. Back to the have you ever  worshiped anything before part. Since we are created to worship and our  worship is no longer always toward our creator let&#8217;s look at things we  do worship.</p>
<p>We worship humans in sports games. Think about it if a man throws a  ball thirty yards we stand, clap and scream for him. Or what about when a  actor has a great roll in a film we go crazy over them. That is  worship. Another form is when we give all of our attention to something.  For me it is electronics. Again we were made to worship.</p>
<p>In the Bible God talks about worship and how we are to worship him  alone. Let&#8217;s pull out the Bible together and see what it says.</p>
<p>Here are a few verses on Worship.</p>
<h4><a href="http://www.biblestudytools.com/nehemiah/9-6.html">Nehemiah 9:6 NIV</a></h4>
<div>You alone are the LORD.  You made the heavens, even the highest heavens, and all their starry  host, the earth and all that is on it, the seas and all that is in them.  You give life to everything, and the multitudes of heaven worship you.</div>
<div>
<h4><a href="http://www.biblestudytools.com/psalms/86-9.html">Psalms 86:9 NIV</a></h4>
<div>All the nations you have made will come and worship before you, O LORD; they will bring glory to your name.</div>
</div>
<div>
<h4><a href="http://www.biblestudytools.com/psalms/95-6.html">Psalms 95:6 NIV</a></h4>
<div>Come, let us bow down in worship, let us kneel before the LORD our Maker;</div>
</div>
<div>
<h4><a href="http://www.biblestudytools.com/matthew/4-10.html">Matthew 4:10 NIV</a></h4>
<div>Jesus said to him, &#8220;Away from me, Satan! For it is written: &#8216;Worship the LORD your God, and serve him only.&#8217; &#8220;</div>
</div>
<div>
<h4><a href="http://www.biblestudytools.com/john/4-24.html">John 4:24 NIV</a></h4>
<div>God is spirit, and his worshipers must worship in spirit and in truth.&#8221;</div>
</div>
<h4><a href="http://www.biblestudytools.com/job/1-20.html">Psalms 29:2 NIV, </a></h4>
<h4><a href="http://www.biblestudytools.com/job/1-20.html">Job 1:20 NIV</a></h4>
<p>Let us pause and think about who we are. <span style="text-decoration: line-through;"><em>WHO ARE YOU GOING TO WORSHIP?</em></span></p>

<p><a rel="attachment wp-att-14" href="http://jointhecall.org/?attachment_id=14"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-14" title="GodMichelangelo" src="http://jointhecall.org/wp-content/uploads/2010/09/GodMichelangelo-214x300.jpg" alt="" width="159" height="222" /></a>When we look into the Bible to see who God is there is so much to read through. It makes it hard for us to just open the Bible and find what we are looking for. We can&#8217;t just type in a search on the side cover and have it pull up all the references of who God is. I know like many of us, we pull down our Bible from time to time dust it off and say we are going to read through it in a year, Yet here we are still searching for the answer of &#8220;Who is God&#8221;. If we would have opened the Bible years ago, it would have taken sometime, but we would have eventually found the answer.</p>
<p>People that have read through the Bible have pointed out that God is a very angry God. People say that he does not know love and he is unfair. Many believe that the God of Christianity is three gods not one. So many people believe so may things so how can we find the Truth. The way to know the truth is to ask the people with the ideas and beliefs &#8220;where can I find the information for myself to read?&#8221; and then read it.</p>
<p>Opening up the Bible and reading the biblical answer can, simply answer the question that we have of who God is. That is what we are going to do first.</p>
<p>Here are a few things that the Bible says about who God is.</p>
<p>- God is a loving God. <a href="http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=1%20John%204:16&amp;version=NIV">1 John 4:16</a><br />
- God is Just. <a href="http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=1%20Thessalonians%201:5-10&amp;version=NIV">1 Thessalonians 1:5-10</a><br />
- God is Pure. (Sinless) <a href="http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Habakkuk%201:13&amp;version=NIV">Habakkuk 1:13</a><br />
- God is a Jealous God. <a href="http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Exodus%2020:5&amp;version=NIV">Exodus 20:5</a><br />
- God has always been<a href="http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Isaiah%2040:28-31&amp;version=NIV"> Isaiah 40:28-31</a><br />
- There is only one God. <a href="http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Deuteronomy%206:4-9&amp;version=NIV">Deuteronomy 6:4</a>, <a href="http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Isaiah%2045:5&amp;version=ASV">Isaiah 45:5</a></p>
<p>God is the one who created you. He knew who you were before your mom and dad conceived you (Jeremiah 1:5). God is a spirit, meaning that he is not bound to time like we are. God can be with you and me and my Grandma all at the same time (John 4:24). God is a personal friend. He not only sent his son Jesus The Christ to pay the penalty for our sins but God also reviled himself through out history to us. God did this by telling us his names, showing us love, and staying in out lives (Exodus 17:15, Isaiah 42:8, Psalms 18:2, Psalms 91:9, John 3:16, 1 John 4:8, Jeremiah 23:23-24).</p>
<p>The question still remains who is God. God is! That really is the answer.</p>
<p>God is my</p>
<p>Friend, Creator, Savior, Healer, Teacher, Master, Lover, Helper, Judge, Comforter, Joy, Counselor, and much, much more.</p>
