Today,
reply is on worship as necessary to continue human existence and
life. The living require ongoing relationship and uninterrupted
contact with the Creator wherein their needs for health,
nourishment, and increase of sacred content will be acknowledged and
addressed. It is written: Psalms
43: 3-5, King James Version (KJV): 3 O send out thy light and thy
truth: let them lead me; let them bring me unto thy holy hill, and
to thy tabernacles. 4 Then will I go unto the altar of God, unto God
my exceeding joy: yea, upon the harp will I praise thee, O God my
God. 5 Why art thou cast down, O my soul? and why art thou
disquieted within me? hope in God: for I shall yet praise him, who
is the health of my countenance, and my God. A fighter in the

What
is the purpose of worshipping god?
Is
it so you can go to heaven regardless of the situation your in, even
if your in a bad situation and he doesnt help you. Or is it so god
can help make your life better? What if a innocent young person was
sentenced to death and he never gave his life to god, hell
automatically go to hell?
THE
GOLDEN ARROW: O worship the LORD in the beauty
of holiness: fear before him, all the earth. Say among the heathen
that the LORD reigneth: the world also
shall be established that it shall not be moved: he shall judge the
people righteously. Let the heavens rejoice, and let the earth be
glad; let the sea roar, and the fulness thereof. Let the field be
joyful, and all that is therein: then shall all the trees of
the wood rejoice Before the LORD: for he
cometh, for he cometh to judge the earth: he shall judge the world
with righteousness, and the people with his truth. (Psalms 96:
9-13, KJV)

“????”,
the duration of existence and life within created beings and living
creatures depend on their having contact with the origin and source
of their process and substance. To exist as more than an abstraction
or material object, and to experience freedom and an acceptable
quality of life, the living must know GOD, and be known by GOD.
Divine fullness (we also say, divinity; the Creator; the Godhead; the
Father, Son, and Holy Spirit) may be understood as a singular entity
made up of all spirit matter that is. Inseparable aspects of
divinity include balance, direction, faith, holiness, hope, joy,
longsuffering, lovingkindness, oneness without sameness, personhood,
purpose, righteousness, truth, wisdom, and wrath against sin.
Therefore, for there to be meaningful communication, exchange and
interaction between divinity and Creation that are uninterrupted by
death or the operations of sin, mankind and other living creatures
(e.g., animals, angels, sacred beasts of heaven) must contain
deposits and endowments of life essence imparted from the
makeup of GOD (we also say, breath; divine DNA; sacred “seed”;
spirit; word). Mutual acknowledgment and ongoing relationship with
GOD—who is immortal, immutable,
ineffable, invisible, unchanging, and without dimension and
measurable form—appear and are set
forth through declarations of divine law, and fixed patterns,
practices, principles, proclamations, and promises. Worship is the
living display of sacred spirit abiding and indwelling those who
willingly serve as eternal life companions with divinity. Judgment
is the examination of records maintained by divinity (the book of
life) that detail attitudes, conduct, spirit content, and responses
to divinity shown by the living. Judgment will be carried out before
the dead and the living undergo a final transformation to exist as
immortal and incorruptible. The lake of fire (the
second death) expressing the
displeasure of divinity and wrath against sin will continue to burn
until it no longer has fuel (i.e., until everything put in it is
burned up, and even ashes and residue no longer exist). Thus,
acceptable worship also includes confession, gratitude, humility,
prayer, praise, rejoicing, repentance, sacrifice, service, sharing,
silence, suffering, and waiting. Consider again the following that
uses language from the Bible, and a presentation from the music
ministry of the Winans with Donnie McClurkin:
(1.)
Matthew 7: 18-23, King James Version (KJV): 18 A good tree cannot
bring forth evil fruit, neither can a corrupt tree bring forth good
fruit. 19 Every tree that bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn
down, and cast into the fire. 20 Wherefore by their fruits ye shall
know them. 21 Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall
enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my
Father which is in heaven. 22 Many will say to me in that day, Lord,
Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast
out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works? 23 And then
will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that
work iniquity.
(2.)
Colossians 2: 8-15, KJV: 8 Beware lest any man spoil you through
philosophy and vain deceit, after the tradition of men, after the
rudiments of the world, and not after Christ. 9 For in him dwelleth
all the fulness of the Godhead bodily. 10 And ye are complete in
him, which is the head of all principality and power: 11 In whom also
ye are circumcised with the circumcision made without hands, in
putting off the body of the sins of the flesh by the circumcision of
Christ: 12 Buried with him in baptism, wherein also ye are risen
with him through the faith of the operation of God, who hath raised
him from the dead. 13 And you, being dead in your sins and the
uncircumcision of your flesh, hath he quickened together with him,
having forgiven you all trespasses; 14 Blotting out the handwriting
of ordinances that was against us, which was contrary to us, and took
it out of the way, nailing it to his cross; 15 And having spoiled
principalities and powers, he made a shew of them openly, triumphing
over them in it.
There
is far more that should be said, correctly examined, and spiritually
apprehended. (For example (3.)

Even so, I trust
this fragment will be useful. Be it unto you according to your
faith.
