Matthew 28:9 ” Suddenly Jesus met them. ‘Greetings,’ He said. They came to Him, clasped His feet and worshiped Him.”

The women had just left the empty tomb when they were confronted by the risen Jesus.  They did not flee but rather fell prostrate at His feet.  There will be a time in all our lives when we too will come face to face with Jesus…and the decision becomes ours…do we turn our back and run…or do we worship at His feet.

John 4:24 ” God is spirit, and His worshipers must worship in spirit and in truth.”

How’s your prayer life?  For many of us,  it’s either a repetitive little petition we rattle off without even thinking about what we’re saying…or we simply forget to pray at all.  This scripture says we must worship in spirit and in truth…we must come before the Lord with informed minds and kindled hearts…but how?  By allowing the Holy Spirit to guide and direct our prayer time, He will bring people to mind that we may intercede on their behalf.  When the Holy Spirit is leading our prayers, our minds have good knowledge of what to pray for, as our hearts are ignited by the love of Christ.
