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

The Ignorant Worshipper Part 2

God is not just a push over, a worship thirsty God, holding a three ponged fork growing fat from the worship and if we don’t worship Him he dies of thirst, God isn’t the God portrayed in TV with instant everything and quick fix deals and all, the one with unending wrath and anger.   His name is Jehovah King, He Is Lord. ·          The LORD most high is terrible Psalms 66:3 ·            King over all the earth Psalms 47:2 ·          God who sits upon the throne of his holiness Psalms 47:8 My bible tells me “ For God is the King of all the earth: sing ye praises WITH understanding ”. Psalms 47:7. So think for a while, we are to sing praise with understanding, what is understanding, how does it come about? Worship today has become a huge debate in churches and in other places they call it worship wars. Worship is the foundation of a Christian life; I’m not here to stir that pot I’m here to allow you to weigh where you are with what the word of God which is the m

Choosing Songs For A Worship Session or A Songlist

Different places sing different songs, different churches use different genre of music or no music at all and its challenging as a worship leader because one thing that stands out in any place of worship are the songs of worship. A great worship leader is one who knows how to use worship songs to glorify God. It’s easy to stand in a room full of people and sing songs of worship and people either connect with them or people are baffled. It’s easy to choose songs that you know that anytime, any day you will “kill it” or you will deliver or we choose songs that won’t work.  We get in frantic mode to pick the best songs everyone will like, that every church is doing, the ones on the radio or songs that make everyone jump. Then, when it comes time to lead worship, we sing through the same songs. Leading worship is about creating a platform for people to meet their maker; it’s about us fading into the background and God being visible. In order to lead, you must know wher

The Decline Of A Worshipper

Worship calls not for an outward show or lip service but an inbuilt desire and passion which you express to Him in so many ways. Worship allows us to know God and connect with his presence in a deeper way. In the process of us worshipping God that he in turns adorns our lives with his glory and align us to his will and blessing. Such is not a 1hour programme, sporadic or regular routine but it is a lifestyle of worship that one daily lives and walks in. Worship in its nature requires certain characteristics from the worshipper, it sets a certain level of consecration and separation of the worshipper no matter who you are and what level you are. If you are a Worship Leader these characteristics of separation are to a certain level, a deeper one because of the office you would be holding. A lot of worship leaders that God has called, He separated them for his work and If you have just received your call in worship start working on these characteristics and qualities in your li

So You Call Yourself A Worshipper

Studying the books of Isaiah, Ezekiel, Revelations, Daniel and Job one thing that stood out was the detailed explanations of how these man of God had numerous encounters with God and in detail they explained how their whole experiences set a platform to know God from that place forward ad that revelation became the basis of their worship. God is a good God and the way that He appears to me and you is totally different especially determined by our level of comprehension of who He is and it’s true that we have not been all called in the same way but today we want to focus on your walk with Him by self introspection to gauge where we are. We are not comparing but looking from the start of our walk with Christ and our lives today. Questions To A Worshipper Is the presence of God (face of God) evident in your life    “And it came to pass, when Moses came down from Mount Sinai with the two tables of testimony in Moses' hand, when he came down from the mount, that
