“Oh come, let us worship and bow down; let us kneel before the LORD our Maker.”

You cannot worship God apart from being filled with the Holy Spirit. If you’re not saved, you cannot worship. If you’re not Spirit filled, you will not worship. If you have trouble with worship, if you have no desire to worship, if worship to you is boring and tedious—you’re either not saved or not Spirit filled. And how can you be Spirit filled? Agree with the Spirit about the desire and purpose of the Spirit: to glorify the Lord Jesus Christ.
When your one goal and aim is to glorify Jesus above everything else; when He’s more precious to you than silver, more costly than gold; and when you want to adore Him, the Holy Spirit of God within you will join you and praise will come up out of you. When you become Spirit filled, you cannot help but worship.
I know when I am Spirit filled. When I eat or when I’m in the car alone, I just want to say, “Jesus, I love you.” When I’m studying, I want to say, “O God, how great you are.” Out of my innermost being flows a river of living water. Anybody who is filled with the Holy Spirit knows exactly what I’m talking about. You must be regenerated by the Father, and you must be motivated and energized by the Holy Spirit of God.
Add a new routine of worship to each day.
Learn to walk with Jesus moment by moment each day.
