Day 273. Can you worship and serve God perfectly? (2024)

Today is day 273 and we are studying The First Commandment. 273. Can you worship and serve God perfectly? No. Only our Lord Jesus Christ worshiped and served God perfectly; but I can seek to imitate Christ, knowing that my worship and service are acceptable to God through him. (1 Kings 15:9–14; Psalm 53:1–3; Luke 4:1–13; Ephesians 5:1–2; Hebrews 7:23–28) We will conclude today by praying First Prayer for Mission found on page 51 of the Book of Common Prayer (2019).
