Words or No Words, Lyrics or No Lyrics, I Can Worship God

Personally I love one thing that I have been noticing in the body of Christ that people are starting to understand that worship isn’t just singing songs or playing music but that Worship is beyond lyrics. We then have a crop of people in the same space who don’t know what to do if they don’t have music or words, yes they know that worship is beyond that but then what else can they do.

“For ye are bought with a price: therefore glorify God in your body, and in your spirit, which are God's”. 1 Corinthians 6:20

John Wesley said this in response to this verse “Yield your bodies and all their members, as well as your souls and all their faculties, as instruments of righteousness to God. Devote and employ all ye have, and all ye are, entirely, unreservedly, and forever, to his glory.”

Our bodies are meant to glorify God, outside words, lyrics and music our lives can minister glory, our bodies can bless the Lord through the way we live daily and the way we carry ourselves in his place.
“Neither yield ye your members as instruments of unrighteousness unto sin: but yield yourselves unto God, as those that are alive from the dead, and your members as instruments of righteousness unto God”. Romans 6:13

Our bodies are instruments of life and let us surrender our hands, feet and minds to his service, dedicate them to bless and glorify God. Let our bodies be a place to edify God’s kingdom and glory on earth. We were redeemed so that we can live for God and not be a slave to sin hence we can bless God in all we do. We cannot surrender our bodies to sin but surrender our bodies to bless the Lord.

Beyond words, lyrics and music our bodies can worship God, beyond singing the way you dress should bless God, the way you conduct yourself with your body does it give Glory to God. Beyond words, lyrics and music yielding our bodies to God is actually our worship to God. Our bodies are instruments of righteousness and worship to God.

What will be your excuse then? If you say I can’t sing, dance or play an instrument.

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.

What Worship Is All About

Worship is the central part of God and heaven but is the most misunderstood part of human life. Someone once wrote if it’s a pattern of heaven then we should emulate it in our lives but when we look around creation in worshipping but man is walking with worship of self or desire to worship God but do not know why. www.cyberbrethren.com Worship isn’t just an idea, a person, or a thing it is a lifestyle that God has called us to leave. Genesis 1 speaks about the mandate of man multiply, subdue and fill the earth, I’m very curious person God wouldn’t just create us to make children, rule earth and then he has heaven full of multiplies angels, subduing all the three heaven and filling the galaxy and centering everything around worship. Kingdom of God resembles all these mandate of man but they are wrapped around worship, we have received the mandate but we didn’t receive the core of the mandate, Worship “O Lord, open thou my lips; and my mouth shall shew forth thy praise

What is worship?

http://partners.kingdomfaith.com Chad Marriott Posted on: Thursday 15 December 2011 As musical directors at Kingdom Faith Church, Chad Marriott and Pete Norman are passionate about seeing people meet with God through worship and work tirelessly to train up and release others in their musical gifting. This is a transcript of a recent interview with them on the subject of “What is worship?” What is worship? Chad : I would say that worship is what you give out or your heart. It’s your heart expression towards God and that expression is expressed through your lifestyle and basically your relationship with God. And of course we know that people tend to think that worship is just the music side of things, but that is just one of many expressions. So if I was to put it down to one thing I would say worship is your own heart expression towards God. Pete: I would second that and say worship is your lifestyle. Worship is a lifestyle that honours God, in one part, a
