"The inner essence of worship is to know God truly and then respond from the heart to that knowledge by valuing God, treasuring God, prizing God, enjoying God, being satisfied with God above all Earthly things... and then that deep, restful, joyful satisfaction in God overflows in demonstrable acts of praise from the lips, and demonstrable acts of love and serving others for the sake of Christ" John Piper

Worship is not done mentally but it is an act of obeying how God wants us to live.

Jesus paid the price for our sins so we wouldn’t have to! So trust in Jesus as Lord and Savior. Also repent so you don’t perish!

Was Jesus talking about an empty heart, or was he talking about an adulteress heart, that preferred the tradition of men over the WORD of God? Only obedience to God's word, is the authentic valuation of God. That is exactly what Jesus accused the scribes and Pharisees of not doing. Mat 15:1-9 Then the scribes and Pharisees who were from Jerusalem came to Jesus, saying, 2 Why do your disciples transgress the tradition of the elders? For they do not wash their hands when they eat bread. 3 But He answered and said to them, Why do you also transgress the commandment of God by your tradition? 4 For God commanded, saying, "Honor your father and mother"; and, "He who speaks evil of father or mother, let him die by death." 5 But you say, Whoever says to his father or mother, Whatever you would gain from me, It is a gift to God; 6 and in no way he honors his father or his mother. And you voided the commandment of God by your tradition. 7 Hypocrites! Well did Isaiah prophesy of you, saying, 8 "This people draws near to Me with their mouth, and honors Me with their lips, but their heart is far from Me. 9 But in vain they worship Me, teaching for doctrines the commandments of men." Unless you have an obedient life, no amount of obedience in all other parts of your life will make you a good worshiper, all attempts will be just lip service
