Wont He Do It

Image
We stand on the altar of God Sunday in, Sunday out singing about God's faithfulness, grace, power and love but then do you believe in His faithfulness. We stand on the same place and more on Sunday, during midweek services and at practices talking and singing songs we have written or songs we like but do we believe the words we sing but most important do we believe the God we sing about. Do we believe the power of God to show up in your space, time and touch his people or you believe that the Holy Spirit can show up make the church believe you are deep worshippers who brings down the presence of God rather than show and direct that Glory to him. What do you believe in? Do you believe? The ministry you were called into? Do you believe in the words you sing unto God? Do you believe in his power to deliver, heal and bless? Do you believe in God himself? Do you believe in God that he can do what he has planned? " So he fed them according to the

Living In The Presence of God

Image
We have been taught how to worship and we have been taught how to praise regardless of how and when, we worship because we love to but at the same time there is the presence of God that very few people have been taught about and know about. Pst Bonnie Deuschle calls the Great Connection that is entering his courts with praise and entering his gates with thanksgiving. In church we know how to get into the presence of God and as soon as we enter into his goodness we stop so that the Pastor can preach the message. Once we are in the presence of God we don’t know what to do.   I had never seen these scriptures before when I saw them I was amazed. “ Keep thy foot when thou goest to the house of God, and be more ready to hear , than to give the sacrifice of fools: for they consider not that they do evil. Be not rash with thy mouth , and let not thine heart be hasty to utter anything before God: for God is in heaven, and thou upon earth: therefore let thy words be few . Fo

The Worship Is Not In The Bowing.

So the big question was why do I have to do it, they say raise your hand and bow down but I don’t think that matter you know. God is looking at my heart and he is not worried about what I do. So I thought of it and just searched about this presumption and this is what I found out.  The worship is not in the bowing but the worship is in the condition of the heart that the whole story here. God sees your worship in the attitude of bowing. In my culture bowing Is a sing to show respect to the elders, when you enter a courtroom you are supposed to bow and address the judge as your worship think about that, Asians bow as a sign of respect and they say the depth of your respect is seen in how low you bow. Universal cultures and traditions show us that when you bow you are showing respect and reverence of the person you are meeting or respect to the seat they occupy and then we come to Christ and we say that our worship is not in the bowing.  Hebrews are very expressive in their

What’s Gone Wrong With The Worship Of Today

Image
Worship or act of worship with time developed and has become better and in that same place we have lost the potency of worship. God’s ways always bring grace and  Worship is the place where God meets man, which is the point of contact as men lift him up He dwells in the praise Psalms 22:3. When he is lifted up He draws all men unto himself and our worship today lacks that element of God. As the church, with a capital “C” body of Christ we are slowly losing the potency of worship. What are some of the things that we are losing grip on that actually allow us to see the face of God ·          Disregard of the people we serve A Worshipper leader is there to serve God and also serve men, as worshipper we are minister and not the big boss. We are meant to bring the face of God to the doorstep of the congregation but we have come to the place where we exalt ourselves and we forget that we are servants of the people. We look at them with disdain and treat them like client

Worship Is and Can Be Dangerous Part 4

Worship is and can be dangerous to everyone around you especially if it is bounces from heaven. We have to take time to learn how to handle a knife before we can use it. Worship is a great blessing to the body of Christ as it allows us direct access to the throne room anytime of the day but it can also destroy us if handled wrongly just like knife. Today we start in 1 Samuel 13 where we meet King Saul facing war with the Philistines and they set a very huge army “thirty thousand chariots, and six thousand horsemen, and people were like the sand which was on the sea shore in multitude”. Saul brought all Israel to the war ground, so that they could fight with the Philistines, one huge problem was that Israel was in terror and was frightened of the huge Philistines army that was against them. “And he tarried seven days, according to the set time that Samuel had appointed: but Samuel came not to Gilgal; and the people were scattered from him. And Saul said, Bring hithe

Worship Is and Can Be Dangerous Part 3

In Genesis 4 we meet the two sons of Adam and Eve, Cain and Abel, this story hasn’t set well with me and it sill is. God brought me to a certain revelation about how serious he is about worship and its still bringing a lot of elements out of it and I pray that God may reveal to you more about this chapter beyond what he has revealed to me so far. “One has to dig into the heart attitude, what God requires from you, not what you feel like doing for Him” Wilhelm Olivier Cain was the 1 st born son of Adam and Eve and he was a farmer or agriculturalist, the bible say he was a was a tiller of the ground. Cain brought to God an offering which was from the fruit of the ground   Abel was the 2 nd son of Adam and Eve and was a keeper of sheep in simple terms he was a rancher, He was the younger brother to Cain and Abel also brought of the firstlings of his flock and of the fat thereof.   It all starts with Cain and Abel bringing an offering before God and the turning
