How To Get Our Wicked Heart to Bow Down, Adore, & Worship
How are we to get our desperately wicked, wild hearts to bow down, adore, and worship Him who is altogether lovely? How are we to educate our ignorant hearts that Chrsit alone is “fullness of joy, pleasures forever” (Psalm 16:11)? First there must be a work of regeneration by the Holy Spirit (new life is imparted). All men are spiritually dead until God graciously gives spiritual life to those He has chosen from the foundation of the world. With this new life comes the ability to express faith in Christ’s work on eth cross, His atoning sacrifice for sin, and His perfect obedience to the law on behalf of His children. As with any living, growing entity, this new spiritual life must be nurtured. Thus we have the beginning of the lifelong process of sanctification.
