Our Lives, Our Service Worship Leaders



Our lives and worship services should be place where we get to see the move and work of God. Our lives should be the place where we create, cleanse, prepare the messenger in anticipation for the Message. Our primary place and reason of being anointed as worship leaders is to bring man to the feet of Jesus, to bring man to the place where they connect with the presence of God.


One of the most technical things I learnt is that you cannot give away what you don't have. You can never take people to the place where you have never been either can you direct them. So many worshippers, we want to give want we don't have and if we endeavour to give away something then we ought to have it within us. At times we underestimate the real work we do when we lead worship.


"The law of the LORD is perfect, converting the soul: the testimony of the LORD is sure, making wise the simple. The statutes of the LORD are right, rejoicing the heart: the commandment of the LORD is pure, enlightening the eyes".Psalms 19:7-8


"And now, brethren, I commend you to God, and to the word of his grace, which is able to build you up, and to give you an inheritance among all them which are sanctified". Acts 20:32


We learn from this scripture that the word of God

1. Perfect - converts the soul (brings life)

2. Makes wise those who are foolish

3. Rejoicing in the heart

4. Pure word brings light to the eyes, - guides us and directs us to Him

5. It builds us.


As Worshippers we want to see the move of God, we would like to see people small in love with God, we want to see the beautiful exchange happen, we would like to see, receive answers and soak in his presence as we lead worship, as we play music, as we do that solo, as we serve. Then if you are crying and desiring for such a move of God we need to adequately prepare for it.


Then can I tell you that it starts with you, it start with you building yourself, growing in Him, overflowing with Him. God comes and inhabits himself where there is his word. His word cannot be broken and God wherever He is given a seat and a platform to stay he inhabits, willing and open vessels God uses.


We want to see a move of God, let's be made pure by his word because only the pure will see Him, we want to see a move of God then let's allow him to direct us and guide us through his word. We desire to see man connect with God then let's allow the Life of God just flow from our lives and permeate those who are suffocating, lifeless and struggling.

We want to see the move God then let's allow God to move in our lives first.

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 daily

Worship and Spiritual Warfare Part 2

In Part 1 of this series Worship and Spiritual Warfare we dealt with the power of worship and its effect in spiritual.  Warfare is effected when God unleashes his power upon us as we worship him in earnestness and with a heart to lift him up, that he falls upon a church, gathering, crusade, team or a cell meeting, wherever God is called He comes and dwells. “When I am lifted up I will draw man unto me” and I inhabit the praises of my people. We know that when you lift up God what happens is that he draws us into his power and anointing then darkness falls away. “But the prince of the kingdom of Persia withstood me one and twenty days: but lo, Michael, one of the chief princes, came to help me; and I remained there with the kings of Persia…. Then said he, knowest thou for what cause I come to thee? and now will I return to fight with the prince of Persia: and when I am gone forth, lo, the prince of Grecia shall come. But I will show thee that which is noted in the scripture of
