Tehillah Worship

What is Worship According to the word of God, its God intended purpose and how we can then offer to God acceptable worship

Part 2 of the importance of worshipping at the feet of the Lord and going through scripture to see the kind of gates that are opened being at his feet with the focus is to understand what we are doing Being at the feet of the Lord from the last issue we saw that at his feet we find grace and mercy, his feet are a place of healing and also that his feet are a place reverence and honour simply a perfect place to worship.   The feet of the Lord also represent ·           Feet represent a  place of healing: “And great multitudes came unto him, having with them those that were lame, blind, dumb, maimed, and many others, and cast them down at Jesus' feet; and he healed them”,  Matthew 15:30 “For a certain woman, whose young daughter had an unclean spirit, heard of him, and came and fell at his feet”,  Mark 7:25 “Came behind him, and touched the border of his garment: and immediately her issue of blo...

A lot of scripture references in the bible speak about feet, especially during the ministry of Jesus a lot of people threw themselves at his feet and worshipped him. My question came around onto why did they focus at his feet or why did they have to throw themselves at his feet. “In Israel a lot of the people wear sandals more so in bible and the fact that much of the land there is arid to desert conditions and with little or no protective cover their feet would accumulate lot of dust. Custom was when someone enters your house you either provide water or your servant would wash their feet. It is a general rule with the Jews “that whoever anoints his feet, is obliged to washing or dipping.'' and  neglect of washing, disrespectful to guest. “ ... Behold, I will make them to come and worship before thy feet, and to know that I have loved thee”.  Revelations 3:9  I pray that God may teach us the importance of worshipping at his feet and use that avenue to open d...

 “ When it comes to being broken before the Lord, which is best: asking the Lord to break us or breaking ourselves before the Lord. Do we either ask God to break us or we choose to break us? “The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit: a broken and a contrite (smitten, broken in pieces) heart, O God, thou wilt not despise”, Psalms 51:17.   Brokenness is a state of being living a smitten or shattered life and when you look at all the references of brokenness in the bible you will find out that God speaks of a brokenness of heart and also speaks of brokenness of the Spirit.  A lifestyle where your heart and mind are in awe or God and then we break our bodies through fasting and praying where your will is no longer that which rules but the will of God is supreme. “The LORD is near unto them that are of a broken heart; and saveth such as be of a contrite spirit”, Psalms 34:18 . This verse also says that the Lord is near the broken hearted, ready to hear...

Brokenness is a pivotal part of a worshipper lifestyle and that is one thing that separates worshippers apart. To break simply means to destroy, shatter into pieces. Brokenness also speaks about humility and a repentant heart and lifestyle “Whosoever shall fall upon that stone shall be broken; but on whomsoever it shall fall, it will grind him to powder”,  Luke 20:18.   This verse for me embodies brokenness and it explains the life of a worshipper. By reading this we see that brokenness is a choice we have in life either we allow God to fall upon us or we fall upon the rock and this explains a question that I was asked . “ When it comes to being broken before the Lord, which is best: asking the Lord to break us or breaking ourselves before the Lord. Do we either ask God to break us or we choose to break us? A crushed heart is a fragrant heart , have you ever been in a church where the Pastor or Worship leader are just broken people, there is just a sweet ta...
