Extravagant Worship

Scripture

( Matthew 26:10 Nkjv)

6 And when Jesus was in Bethany at the house of Simon the leper,
7 a woman came to Him having an alabaster flask of very costly fragrant oil, and she poured it on His head as He sat at the table.
8 But when His disciples saw it, they were indignant, saying, “Why this waste?
9 For this fragrant oil might have been sold for much and given to the poor.”
10 But when Jesus was aware of it, He said to them, “Why do you trouble the woman? For she has done a good work for Me.
11 For you have the poor with you always, but Me you do not have always.
12 For in pouring this fragrant oil on My body, she did it for My burial.
13 Assuredly, I say to you, wherever this gospel is preached in the whole world, what this woman has done will also be told as a memorial to her.”


Observation

The disciple of Jesus was offended when a woman at Bethany offering her extravagant worship and devotion to the Lord by pouring expensive fragrant oil on His body.


Application

We ought not to rashly condemn that which is not orderly done toward Jesus. What is done for Christ from love of Christ is always a good work. We are extravagantly blessed just because of knowing Yeshua, the Messiah, and in return, we should always offer our extravagant worship and devotion toward the King of Kings, the Lord of Lords.


Response

Holy Spirit, teach me to offer my extravagant worship and devotion toward Heavenly Father. I will not limit you to ask me to do something outrageous and seems not order in the eye of man in order to pursuing more of You, pouring out my heart, my mind, my strength to worship You in spirit and in truth. and I believe that You will come down with your mighty 'Kavod " as a Cloud of Glory. I want to see The Tabernacle of David that you will restored in this last day. I bless you and thank you, let my life to be a worship onto you. Amen
