The Ignorant Worshipper Part 1




Every king has glory and honour is honored in a big way, Prince Charles or the Queen of England are honored in a certain way and if that’s the case why don’t we honour do the same and when we worship God, we see him as a friend and we honor Him ignorantly but He is King and Lord, the Lord who is in charge of armies and hosts. We don’t even honour Him like the way we honour and respect the Queen of England.
 
“And those servants went out into the highways, and gathered together all as many as they found, both bad and good: and the wedding was filled with guests. But when the king came in to behold the guests, he saw there a man who had not on a wedding-garment: and he saith unto him, Friend, how camest thou in hither not having a wedding-garment? And he was speechless. Then the king said to the servants, Bind him hand and foot, and cast him out into the outer darkness; there shall be the weeping and the gnashing of teeth”. Matthew 22:10-13.

Being an ignorant worshipper I believe is not different from the parable that Jesus taught that I have just quoted above and it’s amazing how many times we are found wanting in our worship and God still loves and accepts us for who we are. The king walked in and asked why He wasn’t wearing the wedding garment because they were being provided to everyone who was at the wedding, he was found speechless. 

May we be found speechless in his sight because we are in awe of Him and what He is doing? There is a garment won in a wedding, a garment that you wear to meet the president, a garment that you wear to work and there is a garment that you wear in worship and that garment is spelt understanding.
The only way to leave ignorant worship behind is to come to a place for understanding. 

Understanding is sought off, Understanding is searched for, understanding is mined like a diamond or platinum. Unless you are Solomon with a thousand cattle offering which can cause the King of Kings to visit you regardless it did cost him something (a huge sacrifice of thanksgiving)

“At the entrance of thy words giveth light; it giveth understanding unto the simple”.  Psalms 119:130
“Through thy precepts I get understanding: therefore I hate every false way”. Psalms 119:104

“Get wisdom, get understanding: forget it not; neither decline from the words of my mouth”.  Proverbs 4:5

Wisdom and understanding won’t come whilst you are seated at home but it’s something that you chase after, the scripture in Proverbs says get understanding at all cost, it’s the glory of kings to search out hidden things. To leave being an ignorant worshipper you have to take time and study the scriptures as the bible states that at the entrance of thy word there is understanding, God’s word hold understanding for me. If I’m to get understanding and wisdom it will come by listening to His word whether written or spoken word.
 
The word of GOD will change your ignorance and it will change the dimension and the depth of your worship to God. One businessman once said to me the difference between rich and poor people is just, understanding. The rich understand what the poor cannot understand and I believe the difference between worshippers worldwide is simply understanding.

Let’s Pray:

Father I Pray to you and I ask that you may help us not to be ignorant worshippers but to be a worshipper who worship you in understanding and doing all I can to worship you from the place of revelation and faith in you. Thank you for the gift of worship that you have given me and thank you for everything in Jesus Name. Amen

"Worship Him In The Beauty Of His Holiness"

Hearing God As A Worshipper

Image
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...

Characteristics Of A Worshipper

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

Image
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...
