Admiration! Totally Lost in Worship

Worship is giving, offering, presenting glory, honour, majesty, power and worth to Him who seats on the throne and this is done in various ways. One would use music, one could serve God, one would minister to God, surrender his or her life towards God, one would kneel, one would dance and one would live his life consecrated for God. There are many ways to express our worship. Worship starts from the heart and we use whatever we have to express it to God.

Today when I read this scripture in Ezekiel 46, it took me aback and this came out of this scripture.

“And thou shalt daily offer a burnt-offering unto Jehovah, of a yearling-lamb without blemish: thou shalt prepare it morning by morning”, Ezekiel 46: 13. Basically hear God is instructing Israel that they offer a lamb which a year old every morning of their lives to God.

Theologists agree that on this chapter God did not demand an evening sacrifice as he had done in the past. Sacrifices in the Old Testament were mostly done in the as a morning sacrifice and then an evening sacrifice. There were several types of sacrifices such as the Sin offering, burnt offering, a sacrifice of peace offering, meat offering and drink offerings.

It’s the aspect of worship, worship is a daily lifestyle, it is not something you do but it is the important thing that you live for. Worship goes beyond singing, worship is bigger and better without words. It’s the aspect of glorifying God that makes all the difference. Look at your life are you a Sunday Worshipper or you worship God daily, it’s your personal lifestyle, a huge part of your character and manner. Do you live daily just to bless God?

Living to bless God as a daily lifestyle, it should be a way you live daily, I am taken to the story of Noah “And Noah builded an altar unto the LORD; and took of every clean beast, and of every clean fowl, and offered burnt offerings on the altar. And the LORD smelled a sweet savour; and the LORD said in his heart, I will not again curse the ground any more for man's sake; for the imagination of man's heart is evil from his youth; neither will I again smite any more every thing living, as I have done”, Genesis 8:20-21 (KJV).

Though Noah’s experience happened once it is the effect of the sacrifice that I want us to look at 
               1. God smelt the offering
              2. Spoke to self
              3. Made a covenant with Noah for the whole earth.



It is the power of sacrifice that I want us to look at, worship is a sacrifice and when done daily and always it yield such a blessing to God. With the right motives and heart in the manner that God looks at. Our worship will bring glory to God always and he will find pleasure in our lives. Would you not want such a life where

As the verse states that they offered worship (sacrifices) to God daily, what I am here to talk about is the state and to bring an understanding of the power of our worship when it is done in a manner that blesses God. Look at the worship and sacrifice of Noah. Our worship should make God blessed when we offer it to him.

Let’s not get lost in worshipping God on Sunday may we be madly in love, stare and admire him daily

“Worship Him in the Beauty of His Holiness”

Hearing God As A Worshipper

Don’t you have those kinds of friends and relatives who tell you amazing stories of their vision with the Lord Jesus or the dreams they had walking with Jesus or people who hear God’s voice and can see God in literary everything they walk in? Even the ones who see God in odd things, colors, incidences and they hear God speaking to them.  You could be like me, I haven’t heard God’s audible voice or see him in a vision or trance, I try and read things and I usually fail and suck at those things. It is then asking the question is how do we hear God’s voice or train my ear to hear God’s voice because we always told God is always speaking we just not listening enough. How many have tried to listen and you heard nothing.  You could be like me, I haven’t heard God’s audible voice or see him in a vision or trance, I try and read things and I usually fail and suck at those things.

Being a child of God and being called a Christian qualifies a person to be a worshipper, whether you have a sweet voice or a horsey voice, whether you can dance or you have CRD (Caucasian Rhythm Disorder) in God’s books you qualify as a worshipper. The name of a person reveals their character and the quality of worship reveals the character of a worshipper . Just like the names of God reveal his character and a worshipper is known his or her character. Characteristics of a Worshipper Brokenness and Humility   “ The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit: a broken and a contrite heart, O God, thou wilt not despise” Psalms 51:17  “The LORD is nigh (near) unto them that are of a broken heart; and saveth such as be of a contrite spirit” Psalms 34:18 “Because your heart was tender, and thou didst humble thyself before God, when thou heard his words against this place, and against the inhabitants thereof, and humbled thyself before me, and didst rend thy clot...

The Priesthood of A Worshipper Part 2

Caution! The words in this article may offend some people, please take no offence it’s what the bible says and we are just interpreters. Looking at the lives of Old Testament who were sold out, lived their whole lives separated and living their live for the call of God. As you read this, God called you a priest whether you are a worship leader, singer or you don’t have the ability to sing but you are good at SMI (shower ministries international) or may term yourself an ordinary Christian. We are all called to worship, so we are all Priests after the order of the Lion of Judah . “Neither shall they shave their heads, nor suffer their locks to grow long; they shall only poll their heads” Ezekiel 44:20 As you read this verse many will tell you that “God looks at the heart”, but reading these chapters of Ezekiel 44, worship is more than just having the  heart. The heart matters a lot in addition to the heart there is also presentation, there is dressing, consecration, our d...
