Devotional Worship Begins In Heaven

Monday 3-3-25 2nd. Day Of The Weekly Cycle, Adar 2 5785/5989 73rd. Winter Day

The phrase "worship begins in heaven" signifies that the ultimate model and purest form of worship is found in the heavenly realm, where all creation is completely devoted to praising God without any distractions or imperfections, as described in the Bible, particularly in the book of Revelation, which provides vivid imagery of heavenly worship with angels and saints continually praising God on the throne; essentially, earthly worship should strive to reflect this perfect heavenly worship.

Key points about "worship begins in heaven":

  • Biblical basis:
    The Book of Revelation, particularly chapters 4 and 5, offers detailed descriptions of heavenly worship, including the 24 elders casting their crowns before God and singing praises.
    Meaning:
    This phrase emphasizes that the most authentic and complete worship is directed solely towards God, without any earthly limitations or distractions.
    Application:
    Christians are encouraged to strive for a similar level of devotion and focus in their earthly worship, understanding that it is a reflection of the worship that occurs in heaven.
