Theme: "Worshiping God in Spirit and Truth"
Text: Revelation 22:8-9
8. I, John, have heard and seen these things. And when I had heard and seen, I fell down to worship him at the feet of the angel who showed me. 9. But he said to me, See that you do it not. I am your fellow servant, and of your brothers the prophets, and of those who keep the words of this book. Worship God.
Remember:
It is very easy to fall into the trap of worshiping angels. But he who loves to read the Word of God, he who meditates on it day and night, he will know that the angel is a fellow servant. Angels are responsible for bringing us the instructions that God wants to transmit to us. They are sent out to strengthen us, to tell us hidden things. Again, let us not confuse the mission of angels with the work of the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit is not an angel, it is God who has deployed himself in us. As for angels, they are our missionaries, they serve us. Let us not worship angels even if they shine like the sun, even if they are giant like the Eiffel Tower. Let us not worship them, let us not bow down before them. They are our traveling companions. They are celestial creatures who work alongside God. He sends them to us from time to time so that they can intervene in certain circumstances that require God's intervention in our lives. An angel is not a God. Let us not worship angels because they are creatures of God. We also know that Satan transforms himself into an angel of light to seduce the children of God. It is therefore dangerous to worship an angel, at the risk of worshiping Satan. So, worshiping God in spirit and in truth begins with discernment, true rigor in selecting and understanding who we should worship. Let us thank God who sends us angels to help us get through exceptional times without flinching. Excellent Tuesday. Amen
