God is actively seeking worshipers. Jesus declares, “The true worshipers will Worship the Father in spirit and truth, for such the Father seeks to worship him” (John 4:23).

Scripture is filled with examples of God’s efforts to initiate, restore, and maintain fellowship with His children. God is like the father of the prodigal who upon seeing his son a long way off, rushed to welcome him home. Worship is our response to the overtures of love from the heart of the Father.

The words of the chorus, “Set my spirit free that I may worship Thee,” reveal the basis of worship.

Singing, praying, praising all may lead to worship, but worship is more than any of them. Our spirit must be ignited by the divine fire.
