Psalm 92
Why would a person not want to make worship a priority in life? I can assure you it is not a problem with God. It is because we are not adequately impressed with God's greatness. Sometimes the problem is those who lead worship aren't impressed with God. They put together poor-quality, dull, and dry worship services out of their laziness and the low priority of God in their lives. Sometimes worship leaders aren't impressed with God, feeling that He isn’t hip or relevant enough, so they feel they need to add cool, fun, and exciting stuff. They feel Jesus is not enough, so they have to add stuff like light shows, smoke, movie clips, or dance routines. Some do not worship because they feel Jesus is only okay, a sort of side dish to life but not a priority. “If there's nothing better to do, then I'll worship”. The enemy will gladly provide a list of other supposedly better things to do.
Verses 5-7 describe this scenario. Verse 5: God’s works and person are the ultimate reality of greatness. Verse 6 describes the man who doesn't worship, first as an animal with no spirit and second as an animal with neither spirit nor mind. In verse 7 is their doom. If we are not inspired with God, then we are without hope.
“Help me, Lord, out of my understanding of your greatness to worship you. AMEN.”
