What is worship?

Worship is the most single important thing or activity a person can do on  earth that would bring forth everything that is within him or her.. Who you worship is who you become like in life and what you worship is who you serve.  God is looking for true worshippers who know Him for who He really is. God is calling His people to a deeper level to walk with Him; it’s time for us to experience the Glory of God in our lives like never before.

The bible says in (John 4:19-24

) Sir,” the woman said, “I can see that you are a prophet. Our fathers worshiped on this mountain, but you Jews claim that the place where we must worship is inJerusalem. Jesus declared, “Believe me, woman, a time is coming when you will worship the Father neither on this mountain nor inJerusalem. You Samaritans worship what you do not know; we worship what we do know, for salvation is from the Jews. Yet a time is coming and has now come when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and truth, for they are the kind of worshipers the Father seeks. God is spirit, and his worshipers must worship in spirit and in truth. ”

The bible tells us that God is the only one we should worship and serve. “Thou shall worship the Lord your God and Him only shall thou serve” (Matt 4:10

).  “Thou shall worship no other god, for Jehovah whose name is jealous, is a jealous God” (Ex 34:14

). Worship is a principle that has been from the creation of man, and it is only attributed to God and no other gods. This is the primary duty of man on earth; God alone is worthy to be worshipped.

Do you need healing? Don’t just seek healing, worship the Healer. Do you need provision? Don’t just seek provision, worship the Provider. Do you need deliverance? Don’t just seek deliverance, worship the Deliverer. Get in love with the King, not just the promises of the Kingdom. That’s when the Glory shows up. Let it pour from your heart. Tell Him that you love Him and worship Him for His goodness, His faithfulness, His patience, His Holiness, His mercy and His long suffering towards you. Ask the Holy Spirit to help you worship God. He will and you will find yourself caught up in the Glory.

There is no greater time than now to truly begin to have an intimate relationship with God, for we are in a season of His presence and in the days of His glory. We should want a deeper revelation of who He is so that we can relate to Him on that level. When we relate to Him on the level of where He is then things will begin to be clearer to us about the things of God. For us to really want to worship God we need to have a desire for Him. When life is not going well for a person, he or she desires to have a better life than what they are experiencing. Such a person will need to desire Him in their life before He can come in and abide so as to improve the person’s situation. And be assured He would not force Himself on us because of who he is.

King David desired more of God that is why he was able to be close to God the way he was and that is why God said David is a man after my own heart. Paul the apostle also had a desire to know Jesus Christ more than the other apostles did. He said ‘that I may know Him which shows his desire in wanting to know more of God and know Him for who He really is. It’s our desire that starts us off on our journey of worship with God.

For your ministry to flourish your worship life must improve on a daily basis in order to have an excellent ministry. The reason i say this is because if you don’t have a personal worship life you cannot lead others in worship. This does not just relate to the worship team but to every single Christian. Your worship life tells how well you know your God, you must be able to know God on a daily basis and not just on Sundays. This is very important if you want your ministry to go far. You must cultivate a very powerful worship life from now. Your worship determines your destiny in life because who you worship determines where you spend eternity and for us God is who we worship and heaven is our destination.

I am challenging you to get to know God better than you have ever known Him before and to experience His presence and glory in your life like never before. 

My prayer is that you would be drawn into a deeper fellowship and communion with God who invites you to dwell in the secret place of His presence and grow in the knowledge and revelation of His glory.
