The Place of the Word of God in Worship


God uses his word within us to speak to us, God always builds on his word. The more the word of God you have in you, the more God speaks to you.  As you read and know the word, God builds you on the inside and speaks to you more and in the process this changes your personal walk with Him revolutionizing your worship. I have seen worship leaders who look like nothing on the exterior or those that don’t meet the profile and not vocally talented but when they sing heavens open for them. Why?

"The entrance of thy words giveth light; it giveth understanding unto the simple".  Psalms 119:130. If we can live in a place where our worship is based on his word then we walk and lead people in the light because the word of God leads and guides us. His word brings understanding to us and as worship leaders we have access to understanding because we know his word, “to know his word is to know Him”.



It’s not just about singing songs or leading people it’s about creating an experience for the audience to experience his presence. If God is the word, then we should worship Him based on what He says He is. Someone once said that worship is our opportunity to remind God of what He says He is and allowing Him to respond to that word.

Worship leaders you don’t have to have a perfect pitched voice with the high ranges and an awestruck tune and melody but you need learn to pull on the heavens by his word, declaring and reminding Him of His word because God responds to His word more than anything.

It’s when we worship Him for who is He is that he descends upon the place.  The most powerful worship times are when we worship God through and by his word. The most powerful songs on earth are just simply songs taken from scripture.

“Sanctify them through thy truth: thy word is truth”.  John 17:17. Jesus was asking the Father “Set them apart through thy word for the word is truth”. Think about it, the word of God makes us Holy; the word of God makes us clean and pure. Our offering becomes pure because it comes from a sanctified place which is acceptable.

Heaven responds to the calling and adoration of men, when worship comes from the depth, heaven responds with depth. When worship is based upon the word then heaven responds with revelation. As a worship leader if you desire to move form okay worship to a different level of worship in life, have the word of God in you and in your heart.

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. It is then asking the question is how do we hear God’s voice or train my ear to hear God’s vo...

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...
