Preparing For A Move Of God: Part 2 - Power Over Sin


As worshippers our desire and heart is to see the move of God, is to see people connect and fall in love with God. To see mankind basking in his presence and God touching people's hearts and he in turn dwelling on our praises. We shouldn't be driven by comments about how we did or played or how well we executed the new song more than being focused on hearing God and bringing people to his feet.

 It's easy to be in a crew, dance troupe, band or choir and hide away in it but when it comes to worship time before God you are standing alone before him alone. Not with anyone else but just alone. There is this one thing that you get to see happen when we take our time and invest in knowing the word of God and not just knowing the word but understanding its impact in our lives all around.  


 The manual we have says this, "Now ye are clean through the word which I have spoken unto you", John 15: 3. As we read the word of God it makes us clean by the washing that comes from the water if the word of God and it also bolsters within us a heart that chases purity. "Thy word have I hid in mine heart, that I might not sin against thee", Psalm 119:11 KJV.

 No matter how great the message is, so long it comes from the wrong messenger then that word is tainted. Worshippers struggle with sin just like everybody else Kelvin but then we know that there are certain sins that are predominant amongst musicians, worship leader and all but the word of God isn't just a sin cleanser but a sin inhibitor. It helps us to know truth and when you know truth from evil you make better choice and become better person. 

 Our value as worshipper is in our purity and uprightness.

 "Moreover by them is thy servant warned: and in keeping of them there is great reward. Who can understand his errors? cleanse thou me from secret faults. Keep back thy servant also from presumptuous sins; let them not have dominion over me: then shall I be upright, and I shall be innocent from the great transgression". Psalms 19:11-13

 The word of God when we keep it
     1. Cleanse sin and secret faults
     2. Brings caution when it comes to sin
     3. Dominion over sin and bring uprightness
     4. Warning

 These are four things we see that happen we keep and obey the word. As worshippers we don't have a passport to sin so that grace can carry us and help us, God honours people who choose to lives such lives, who are guided and molded by the word.

 When we individually live life like this and then we corporately there is bound to be a move of God because the word of God has space in the place that man is. God inhabits and moves in a place where his word is honored and celebrated and the more we honour and celebrate the word of God, the more we see God breaking through in our lives all around.

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
