Peter was called by Jesus to follow Him and help others grow in faith. He became a leader among Jesus’ disciples and shared the message of Jesus with many. Like Peter, we are called to deny ourselves, take up our cross, follow Jesus, and lead others to know Him.

Jesus teaches us that simply calling Him “Lord” is not enough. We are called to walk in obedience and maintain communion with God throughout our lives. Our top priority is to love God wholeheartedly. Church, are we being transformed to be more like Christ each day?

The way of the Lord may be regarded as a narrow path: counter-cultural, "unsafe" and uncomfortable. The way of the world is a wide path: a majority choice, seemingly assured. Come, it's time to be reconciled to Christ Jesus today and trust in the narrow way.

In today’s message, we reflected on the true essence of worship. We learned that worship begins with surrender to God. Despite dark circumstances, we find light in His presence. Worship is complete when we make sacrifices for God, and in our weaknesses, He grants us strength. He is Totally God.

Our God is a holy God and He requires our worship towards Him to be one of reverence and holy fear. Let us worship the way He has dictated us to, and lay down our worldly desires and temptations as we approach the holy of holies.

Worship offers a way for us to develop a healthy inner garden. It prepares us to catch a vision of God that transforms us. Cultivating the disciplines of corporate and private worship will lead us to a deeper experience of the Holy Spirit’s life-giving power.

Have you recognised the splendour of the Most High King? Come, align your posture of worship: with a sincere offering from your lips, worshipping in holiness and proclaiming His sovereignty over all.

Our lives are fraught with spiritual warfare but in God, we have victory over our personal limitations, over our spiritual enemies and over sin. So surrender to God in humility and let Him do the transforming work in our lives.

The Lord has given the breath of life. When God gives you something, take it to the full term. Engage in prayer with the Lord and find yourselves renewed, refreshed and inspired for more of His kingdom.
