How does doubt affect our ability to worship God?

Doubt acts as a significant barrier to worship. It can lead to a lack of assurance in one's relationship with Christ, which impedes genuine worship. As the sermon points out, 'true worship is not going to come out of that kind of heart.' When one is plagued with doubt, they may question their love for Christ or their standing before Him, preventing them from entering into true worship. This doubt can be rooted in focusing too much on oneself and one's failures rather than on the completed work of Christ. Overcoming doubt requires looking unto Jesus, the author and finisher of our faith, which cultivates a heart that is confident and ready to worship.
