Worship

It's no secret that we were made to worship Him. And everyone worships the Lord differently. People have different views on worship also. Worship is an area that God is working with me on. The deeper my walk with God gets, the more I want to worship Him and the more willing I am to do it.

There was a time when it took all of me to simply raise my hands in submission to God. But now, I feel awkward if I don't. The Bible says to let every thing that have breath worship the Lord.

I used to think that it was all about a "feeling." I wouldn't do it unless I was touched by what the Pastor said. But I see now that we need to worship God at all times. Worship Him when you don't feel like it. Worship Him when things are going well. Worship Him when things are going bad. Worship Him when you're happy. Worship Him when you're sad. Worship. We were made to Worship Him.

The more I worship God, the more I want to do it. lol! Can one become addicted to worship?? I love feeling His presence. And yes, I know that sometimes you won't feel a thing. But we have to trust and have faith that He is indeed there.

Last night, I had a wonderful worship experience. I just let it all go and worshipped Him. It was a great feeling. The presence of God was all throughout that sanctuary. And I'm just so glad that I experienced it.

Some people are quiet worshippers. Others are more open. I don't think that one person's praise is better than the other; or that one person's praise is favored over the next person's in God's eyes. And I say that regarding the manner in which one worships. My Co-Pastor talked about worshipping in "spirit and in truth." This is talked about in the Bible in John 4:21-23.

Quiet worship doesn't mean that the worship isn't coming from a true place. It doesn't mean that the person is not worshiping God in "spirit and in truth". And if one feels the need to break out in a sprint, that doesn't mean that their worship is fake or for show.

If I feel the need to step out in the aisle, I'm going to step out. I don't care who is around or what anyone thinks. No one knows my testimony. No one truly knows just how long that "mighty long way" is for me. He's brought me from a mighty long way and I will bless His name.
