Worship Thought

When we enter worship, we ought to press through until the weights have been exchanged: Exchange the weights that easily beset us for the weight of His glory.

Worship until we've felt a release- that's when He is glorified. The only thing that gets between God and His people is ourselves.

Worship is throwing our crown at His feet. Worship is getting ourselves off the throne. Worship is getting our eyes affixed on Him. Worship is kneeling before sovereignty. Worship is reestablishing His kingship in our lives.

Agree!!

In speaking about a typical worship service setting,
Mark King has been talking to the worship team about worship and my perspective has changed dramatically. There's alot he said but this goes with what you've blogged. We've based our worship on feelings instead of focusing on God being the abosolute center. We say, 'It's a good worship service!!' if the music was tight and people danced a bit and WE got out of it what we wanted out of it; when in reality God is saying, "Wait, worship is about giving Me what I deserve regardless of how you feel and how things go." God sees it as a good worship service if WE have completely poured out our alabaster box regardless of how we feel.

Great post, Scott!

Thanks Vren.

Worship is a such lifeline... I've felt clarity and communicative breakthrough so many times in worship... sometimes even when my prayers weren't feeling effective.

Keep leading... your music and passion inspires us all! =)
