How should the wicked worship?

By ElShaddai Edwards | Published: November 18, 2008

1 Samuel 12.20-22 (REB):

Do not be afraid; although you have been so wicked, do not give up the worship of the Lord, but serve him with all your heart. Do not turn to the worship of sham gods which can neither help nor save, because they are a sham. For his great name’s sake the Lord will not cast you off, because he has resolved to make you his own people.

God knows that our thoughts and inclinations are naturally wicked (Genesis 6:5), yet we are not to give up worshiping him in our state of despair and wretchedness.
