Track 4: Living Sacrifice

Scripture: Romans 12:1-2

“Therefore, I urge you, brothers and sisters, in view of God’s mercy, to offer your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and pleasing to God—this is your true and proper worship. Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is—his good, pleasing and perfect will.”

Devotion:

Romans 12:1-2 calls us to a radical way of living: “Therefore, I urge you, brothers and sisters, in view of God’s mercy, to offer your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and pleasing to God—this is your true and proper worship. Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is—his good, pleasing and perfect will.”

This passage urges us to offer our entire lives to God as an act of worship. A living sacrifice means that our whole being—our thoughts, actions, and desires—are continually offered up to God. It’s a call to live in a way that is set apart for Him, dedicated to His purposes, and reflective of His holiness.

The concept of a living sacrifice contrasts with the dead sacrifices of the Old Testament. We are called to be alive in Christ, actively living out our faith in a way that honors God. This involves a daily choice to surrender our will to His, to lay down our desires, and to seek His glory above all else.

Renewing our minds is a critical aspect of this call. The world around us constantly tries to shape our thinking and values, but we are called to be transformed by the renewal of our minds. This means immersing ourselves in God’s Word, allowing His truth to reshape our perspectives, and aligning our thoughts with His.

As we live as living sacrifices, we are able to discern God’s will. This is not about following a set of rules, but about cultivating a deep relationship with God where we understand His heart and His desires for us. It’s about walking in intimacy with Him, being sensitive to His leading, and responding in obedience.

Reflect on your own life. Are there areas where you need to surrender more fully to God? Are there patterns of thinking that need to be renewed by His Word? Commit to living as a living sacrifice, holy and pleasing to God, and experience the joy of true and proper worship.

“Fruit of the Spirit” celebrates the transformative work of the Holy Spirit within us, producing the beautiful qualities listed in Galatians 5:22-23. This track emphasizes that these fruits—love, joy, peace, forbearance, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control—are the natural result of a life surrendered to God.

Track 3: Fruit of the Spirit

Scripture: Galatians 5:22-23

Devotion:

Galatians 5:22-23 outlines the fruit of the Spirit: “But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, forbearance, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control. Against such things there is no law.”

These attributes are the natural result of the Holy Spirit’s work within us. They are the evidence of a life surrendered to God and transformed by His power. Each fruit represents a facet of God’s character and His kingdom, and they are the qualities that should define us as believers.

Love is the foundation of all the fruits. It is the greatest commandment and the essence of God’s nature. As we grow in love, we reflect God’s heart to those around us.

Joy is a deep, abiding sense of gladness and contentment that comes from knowing God and trusting in His promises. It is not dependent on our circumstances but is rooted in our relationship with Him.

Peace is the tranquility and rest that we find in God. It comes from trusting Him completely and knowing that He is in control.

Forbearance, or patience, is the ability to endure difficult situations and people with a calm and steady heart. It is a reflection of God’s patience with us.

Kindness is the expression of God’s love through our actions. It is being considerate, compassionate, and generous to others.

Goodness is moral excellence and virtue. It is living a life that is pleasing to God and reflecting His goodness to the world.

Faithfulness is being reliable, trustworthy, and loyal. It is being committed to God and His purposes, and steadfast in our walk with Him.

Gentleness is strength under control. It is being humble, meek, and considerate in our interactions with others.

Self-control is the ability to govern our desires and impulses. It is living a disciplined life that honors God.

As you meditate on these fruits and this song, invite the Holy Spirit to cultivate these qualities in your life. Ask Him to reveal any areas where you need growth and to help you bear more fruit. Remember that these fruits are not produced by our efforts but by the Spirit’s work within us. Surrender to His leading and allow Him to transform you from the inside out.

Lyrics

Scripture: Galatians 5:22-23

In the garden of our hearts, Your Spirit grows,
With seeds of love, joy, and peace it sows,

In every season, in every need,

Track 2: We Are Your Temple

Description:

“We Are Your Temple” delves into the profound truth that believers are the living temples of God, where His Spirit dwells. Inspired by 1 Corinthians 3:16, this track invites listeners to reflect on their identity and the privilege of hosting God’s presence within them. The lyrics highlight the call to live a life of holiness and purity, honoring the indwelling Spirit through our thoughts, actions, and words. This song serves as a powerful reminder of our role as vessels of God’s love and grace, encouraging us to shine His light wherever we go and live in a way that glorifies Him.

Track 2: We Are Your Temple

Scripture: 1 Corinthians 3:16

Devotion:

1 Corinthians 3:16 says, “Don’t you know that you yourselves are God’s temple and that God’s Spirit dwells in your midst?” This verse is a powerful reminder of our identity and the profound truth that God Himself dwells within us.

In the Old Testament, the temple was the place where God’s presence resided, and it was a sacred space set apart for worship and communion with God. Today, through the finished work of Jesus Christ, we have become the living temples of God. His Spirit dwells within us, making our bodies the holy sanctuary where He resides.

This truth has significant implications for how we live our lives. As God’s temples, we are called to live in a way that honors and reflects His presence within us. This means living a life of holiness, purity, and dedication to God. It means allowing the Holy Spirit to lead and guide us in all things, submitting our will to His and seeking to glorify Him in all that we do.

Being God’s temple also means that we carry His presence wherever we go. We are vessels of His love, grace, and power, and we have the privilege and responsibility to represent Him in the world. This calls for a life of intentionality and purpose, knowing that our actions and words can either draw others to God or push them away.

Reflecting on this truth, take time to evaluate your life. Are there areas where you need to align more closely with God’s holiness and purity? Are you living in a way that honors the presence of the Holy Spirit within you? Seek God’s help to live as His temple, a holy and living sacrifice, pleasing to Him.

Let this song be a declaration of your commitment to be a dwelling place for God, allowing His Spirit to fill and transform you, and shining His light to the world around you.

Lyrics

Track 2: We Are Your Temple

Scripture: 1 Corinthians 3:16

“Don’t you know that you yourselves are God’s temple and that God’s Spirit dwells in your midst?”

Verse 1:

Do you not know, we are the temple of God,
His Spirit dwells within, as we walk this sod,
With every heartbeat, His presence we proclaim,
A sacred dwelling, in Jesus’ name.

Chorus:

We are Your temple, Lord, a holy place,
Filled with Your Spirit, covered by Your grace,
Every breath we take, every step we make,
We are Your temple, for Your name’s sake.

Verse 2:

In our hearts, You’ve made Your home,
We’re never alone, no need to roam,
Your Spirit guides us, in truth and light,
In Your presence, we find our might.

Chorus:

We are Your temple, Lord, a holy place,
Filled with Your Spirit, covered by Your grace,
Every breath we take, every step we make,
We are Your temple, for Your name’s sake.

Bridge:

With open hearts, we welcome You,
Spirit of God, make all things new,
In Your presence, we are renewed,
We are Your temple, pure and true.

Chorus:

We are Your temple, Lord, a holy place,
Filled with Your Spirit, covered by Your grace,
Every breath we take, every step we make,
We are Your temple, for Your name’s sake.

Outro:

In Your temple, we find our rest,
In Your Spirit, we are blessed.

Track 1: The Call to Worship

Description:

“The Call to Worship” sets the tone for the album by drawing listeners into the profound invitation that Jesus extends to worship in spirit and truth. Based on John 4:23-24, this track emphasizes that true worship transcends physical locations and rituals, focusing instead on a heartfelt connection with God. The lyrics encourage believers to lay aside their distractions and come before God with open hearts, allowing the Holy Spirit to lead them into genuine worship. This song is a reminder that God seeks worshipers who are fully surrendered and engaged in a relationship with Him, making it the perfect opening for a journey into deeper worship.

Track 1: The Call to Worship

Scripture: John 4:23-24

Devotion:

In John 4:23-24, Jesus speaks profound words to the Samaritan woman: “Yet a time is coming and has now come when the true worshipers will worship the Father in the Spirit and in truth, for they are the kind of worshipers the Father seeks. God is spirit, and his worshipers must worship in the Spirit and in truth.”

These verses illuminate the essence of true worship. It is not confined to a location or a ritual, but it is an intimate encounter with God that transcends physical boundaries. True worshipers are those who engage with God on a spiritual level, allowing the Holy Spirit to guide and transform their worship.

To worship in spirit means to engage with God with our entire being, led by the Holy Spirit. It involves a heart that is open and surrendered to God, allowing His Spirit to move within us and through us. This kind of worship is not about external expressions alone but about an internal posture of reverence, love, and obedience to God.

Worshiping in truth involves aligning our worship with the truth of who God is as revealed in His Word. It means understanding His nature, His character, and His will, and letting this understanding shape our worship. Worship in truth also means living a life that reflects the truth of the gospel, walking in obedience to God’s commands, and bearing the fruit of the Spirit.

This call to worship in spirit and truth invites us into a deeper relationship with God. It challenges us to move beyond mere rituals and lip service and to seek a genuine, transformative encounter with God. It is a call to surrender our hearts, minds, and lives to Him fully.

As you reflect on these verses and this song, consider how you can engage more deeply with God in your worship. Ask the Holy Spirit to guide you and to reveal areas in your life that need to be aligned with the truth of God’s Word. Seek to worship God with your whole heart, in spirit and in truth, and allow His presence to transform you.

Lyrics

Scripture: John 4:23-24

“Yet a time is coming and has now come when the true worshipers will worship the Father in the Spirit and in truth, for they are the kind of worshipers the Father seeks. God is spirit, and his worshipers must worship in the Spirit and in truth.”

Verse 1:

A time is coming, it has now arrived,
True worshipers in spirit will arise,
Not on this mountain, nor in temples made by hands,
But in hearts surrendered, we’ll stand.

Chorus:

We worship You, in spirit and in truth,
Our hearts laid bare, our souls renewed,
Father, seek us now, Your worshipers we become,
In spirit and in truth, Your kingdom come.

God is spirit, and we worship in His light,
Our hearts united, shining ever bright,
In every moment, in every breath we take,
We honor You, O Lord, for Your name’s sake.

Our hearts laid bare, our souls renewed,
Father, seek us now, Your worshipers we become,

In holy reverence, our hands we raise,
Spirit of God, fill this place,
We worship You, we seek Your face.

Chorus:

We worship You, in spirit and in truth,
Our hearts laid bare, our souls renewed,
Father, seek us now, Your worshipers we become,
In spirit and in truth, Your kingdom come.

Our hearts as offerings, to You alone.
