LastCall: Noah builded an altar unto the LORD -Jon Courson


And Noah builded an altar unto the LORD; and took of every clean beast, and of every clean fowl, and offered burnt offerings on the altar.

 

Genesis 8:20

 

“Noah, what are you doing?” the world would say. “There’s a whole planet to repopulate, and you’re burning up limited, valuable resources. It’s a waste, Noah. Be practical.” 

Whenever I find myself thinking this, I realize I’m in very bad company. 

A woman poured an alabaster box full of perfume upon Jesus. “Wait a minute,” said Judas. “That’s a waste of resources. The poor could be helped with that money.” 

“What she has done, she has done unto Me,” said Jesus (see Matthew 26:12).

And in this I begin to understand that God values worship more than work. 

“Thou shalt worship the Lord thy God, and him only shalt thou serve,” declared Jesus (Matthew 4:10). Did you notice the order? Worship comes first, service second. You might not be a missionary to Africa, an evangelist in a big stadium, or a singer on the radio, but every person can do that which most blesses God, for the highest priority of ministry is not work, but worship. 

Worship is the highest, most precious ministry you will ever perform. 

Worship will bless you the most, and honor God in the greatest way. 

Worship will “altar” your life—it will change who you are.
