Why is it essential to focus on Christ in worship?

Worship is primarily about glorifying God in Christ, as emphasized in Colossians 3:11. When we come together as believers, our focus should be on honoring Christ rather than ourselves. True worship reflects an understanding that all our hope, praise, and adoration must center around Jesus. It is not about our feelings, preferences, or achievements; instead, it is about responding to the truth of who Christ is and what He has done. This results in a deep, meaningful fellowship and connection among believers and aligns our hearts with God’s purposes, reinforcing the idea that Christ is central to all aspects of our Christian lives, including worship.
