"Lift up your hands in the sanctuary and praise the Lord." Psalm 134:2

Futile Searches

“In the Old Testament, a priest could not offer a sacrifice until he had been anointed with oil, symbolic of the Spirit of God. No man can worship out of his own heart. Let him search among the flowers, let him search among the bird nests and tombs and wherever he chooses to worship God. Such a search will be futile and lead to spiritual frustration…only the Holy Spirit can worship God acceptable, and He must in us reflect back to God His own glory. If it does not reach our hearts, there is no reflecting back and no worship” A.W. Tozer

Father, lead me away from futile searches to worship You. Keep me from spiritual frustration. Teach me to worship You in truth and in the anointing of Your Holy Spirit. Amen.
