Religion may say the right things, but, if we don’t really
mean what we say, our words will not make any difference to the way we
live. This kind of religion is worthless. What does God say to us about
this kind of religion? - “God warned them in a dream not to go back to
Herod” (Matthew 2:12). God is still warning His people to steer clear of
empty religion. When we come to the Lord, we must not come with empty
words - words that we don’t really mean. Our worship is to shape our
life. How is our worship to change our way of living? Real worship
arises out of salvation. This is very different from religion. Religion
says more about ourselves than it says about our Saviour.
Salvation is not about us. It’s about Jesus, our Saviour. When He is the
focus of our attention, we will learn to worship Him and live for Him.
