God wants us to worship Him in spirit and in truth.Do you spend more time watching tv, than you do with God each day? If so, then you are not worshipping Him in spirit. God has to be first in your life every day, not just once a week, but EVERYDAY. Christ gave His life for you. Are you giving your life for Him? You should be, if you are worshipping Him in spirit.
Jesus made the comment about worshipping God in spirit and in truth when he talking to a Samaritan woman at the well of Jacob (Israel). At the end of his conversation with her he states:
" . . . Woman, believe me, the hour cometh, when ye shall neither in this mountain, nor yet at Jerusalem, worship the Father. Ye worship ye know not what: we know what we worship: for salvation is of the Jews. But the hour cometh, and now is, when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and in truth: for the Father seeketh such to worship him. God [is] a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship [him] in spirit and in truth." (John 4:21-24) Our family worship should bring the spirit of God into our midst.We must be careful because the enemy wants to hinder worship. He doesn’t want us to have the closeness with God that we need.
If God has revealed the truth to you about something in the Bible, but you choose to ignore it, because it does not fit in with what you like, and because it doesn't 'feel' nice, then you are rejecting the Holy Spirit's guidance.
The Holy Spirit alive in us, growing into a beautiful fruit tree. The fruit that the Holy Spirit produces is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control. Making use the fruits of the spirits one can worship god in spirit and truth.
