Look Busy - Pastor Johnnie Simpson Jr.


In this powerful message, we're challenged to examine the authenticity of our worship and faith. The prophet Isaiah's words to ancient Israel resonate deeply with us today, reminding us that God desires more than just ritualistic observance. We're called to stop merely 'looking busy' in our faith and start truly living it out. The key scripture, Isaiah 1:1, 10-20, paints a vivid picture of God's dissatisfaction with empty rituals and His longing for genuine righteousness. This passage invites us to reflect on our own spiritual practices: Are we simply going through the motions, or are we truly seeking to align our hearts with God's will? The message emphasizes that true faith is demonstrated through action – by stopping evil, learning to do good, seeking justice, and defending the oppressed. It's a powerful reminder that our faith should transform not just our Sunday mornings, but every aspect of our lives.
