Miraculous Worship
They say
that heartfelt worship you will find is in jail or in a hospital because the
focus of such people is totally God alone. These are the places where people
are hungry and are really looking for God. Sometimes we don’t have that sense
of abandonment that they have when they worship because of their earnestness miracles
do follow them because of their abandonment that is what opens the miraculous
over their heads.
In Acts 16
we meet Paul and Silas and I have written quite a few articles about them but
this time it spoke something deep within me. At midnight they were singing
praise, their focus wasn’t the jail, their wounds, their ill treatment, the
stocks, the fetters, the darkness or anything but their focus was to praise God
in everything. Their focus was God and lifting him up and they were so loud
that other prisoners heard them. Most times when we are in such places we have
a exit strategy planned for God, this is the way I think God will do it, he did
it so for a friend of mine.
God showed
up in a miraculous manner, the way I know Paul and Silas weren’t thinking or had
planned or thought in their heads. The
focus of their worship wasn’t the miracle it was the God of the miracle. “When we worship God with our focus on Him
we create room for Him to do the unimaginable things in life”.
The worship that comes from our lives should
be so loud and plain that man can say that the fruit of his lips, works surely
he is a child of God and he is blessed. Can man say such of your life? No
condemnation.
In 1 Chronicles
20:21 we meet Israel faced with a several kings and being set for battle. They
set worshippers in the front line of the battle and their focus was to
“praise the beauty of holiness”. The focus wasn’t the battle but they set their
hearts to look and lift up God and bless the Beauty of Holiness.
God showed
up in the battlefield and fought for Israel, by the time Israel got to the
battle ground the enemy was already dead, all they had to do was pick up war
spoils. Their focus was to praise God He showed up and did a miracle for them.
So many
times we expect God to show up in our lives in a certain manner and he doesn’t
do it that way, he shocks us by doing something extraordinary. If you want the
miraculous in your life then let God be God, let
your focus be God when you worship and believe that He will show up to do His
will
What your
focus? Because level of your focus will draw the miraculous from within God,
you choose where you want to stand. The miraculous or the usual same old same
old.
The
miraculous kicks in when the focus of your worship isn’t the challenges that
brought you into his presence but your total focus and energy and even telling
your challenges that I Worship a big God. I have realized it’s the focus and
heart attitude.
Worship
that says even if things get worse or bad I will still worship him with 100%
focus such worship provokes God to do the miraculous. I desire that our worship
bring answers to those who need them, healings to those who need them and so
many things.
Our worship
should pull down the miraculous over our lives and people around us
Worship Him
In The Beauty Of His Holiness.
