No Work, Worship

"Speak to the sons of Israel and say to them, 'The Lord’s appointed times which you shall proclaim as holy convocations—My appointed times are these:'" -Leviticus 23.2

God has set aside times for His people the proclaim as holy gatherings. They are times when the people were to be fully focused on worshiping God. They were times, sometimes a day, sometimes multiple days, that were to be set aside to fully focus on God.

Men, we need times like this in our lives. There have to be times in our life when we set everything aside and fully focus on God. We need to cease from the daily tasks and pour everything into God. We need to take time and remove all the distractions and allow ourselves to be fully immersed in God.

If we would be men of God, we have to take time to simply worship God and nothing else. Let take the time, daily, to set aside all of our responsibilities and obligations and focus fully on God. Let us take the time each week to gather with the body to worship our Father. Let us make time throughout the year to escape and be alone with God, sometimes alone, sometimes with a group of brothers.

Let us set work aside, and simply worship.

"Iron sharpens iron, so one man sharpens another."

To God alone be the Glory!

Strength and Honor
