DAY 12 OF 40
GENUINE WORSHIP
True Worshipers know that ministry to the Lord always comes before ministry for the Lord.When serving God takes the place of God,know that your heart has started backsliding.Genuine Worship changes the worshiper into the image of One worshiped.You look like what you worship.Whenever the method of Worship becomes more Important than the Person of Worship,We have already prostituted Our Worship.
There are entire congregations who worship praise and worship but who have not yet learned to worship God.To worship or not to worship has never been the question for men we are inherently worshipers,it is more a question of who and what we worship.Most guest worship leaders have mastered the art of crying tears with their eyes yet their hearts are dry!It has become more of a career than a ministry,may God give us grace to go after him not opportunities!
Worship is forgetting about what's wrong with you and remembering what's right with God.Worry is worship focused on a problem.Worry and worship cannot exist in the same space.One always displaces the other.Choose worship.
Worship is a revelation of your private intimacy with God,your worship is limited to a level of your intimacy with God.When you pray God sends angels,when you worship he inhabits your space.Worship transcends songs yet it may involve songs,worship is an attitude of the heart...
Benefits of worship
1.It Guarantees God's manifest presence for you - God doesn't manifest where he is tolerated but where he is genuinely worshiped.
2.Divine Encounters - When Solomon dedicated the temple the Glory descends to a crescendo that religion became a relationship.
3.He fights your battles - 2 Chro 20;..your worship is your warfare.
4.Open doors - Acts 16:25-26...your next level in the spirit is determined by the quality of your worship.
5.Deliverance - No man worships God and remains in bondage..in Mark 5...6000 demons where not powerful enough to stop a man from worshipping,your healing,breakthrough,job,provision is tired to your worship!
