The Heart Of Worship


Lord with humility I write this, Father I ask for Your Holy Spirit to speak and move through this entry, touch everyone who reads this, open their eyes of understanding I ask, may Your Will be done, glory and honor be to Your Name, in the Name of Jesus Christ I pray, Amen.

Many people have wrote about true worship and expounded on what worship really means, but I believe there's always more in the things of God, and we can only receive more when we have the right attitude and heart which God will fixed His eyes on.

What is a heart of worship?
Ps 51:17
The sacrifices of God [are] a broken spirit, A broken and a contrite heart-- These, O God, You will not despise.

A humble heart is a heart of worship, humility is a very general word, let me explain in God's term.

Humility is recognizing that God's Holy, and after realising we're nothing but just a man, and that we're undone, we submit to Him and His Will, and follow His ways, it gives us an unquenchable thirst and hunger to seek and adore Him, and an unexplainable trust in God.

It's His Holiness, that makes Him so worthy to be praise, it's because of His Holiness that's He's deserving of all blessing and honor and glory, it's His Holiness that makes His sacrifice on the cross means something, because He was without blemish so that He can have victory over death, hence setting us free from eternal death, giving a remedy for our sins, if we believe in His work on the cross and confess that He is God.

Isa 6:1-3
[In the year that King Uzziah died, I saw the Lord sitting on a throne, high and lifted up, and the train of His robe filled the temple. Above it stood seraphim; each one had six wings: with two he covered his face, with two he covered his feet, and with two he flew. And one cried to another and said: "Holy, holy, holy [is] the LORD of hosts; The whole earth [is] full of His glory!"

Isaiah saw God's Holiness, and it results in a true attitude of worship and it completely changes his life.

Isa 6:5
So I said: "Woe [is] me, for I am undone! Because I [am] a man of unclean lips, And I dwell in the midst of a people of unclean lips; For my eyes have seen the King, The LORD of hosts."

A revelation of God's Holiness, humbles and transforms a persons spirit into a broken and contrite heart hence God can touch his life, enables a person to have fellowship with God, and makes the worship a person gives acceptable and pleasing in God's sight.

The only character of God that is sounded so ever loudly from the beginning of the Genesis to the end of Revelation is "I AM HOLY".

Rev 4:8
[The] four living creatures, each having six wings, were full of eyes around and within. And they do not rest day or night, saying: "Holy,* holy, holy, Lord God Almighty, Who was and is and is to come!"

It's the beauty of His Holiness that compels us to worship and adore Him, that makes Him worthy.

A heart of worship is a heart humbled by His Holiness, a heart that sees the Holy God, a heart that cries Holy Holy Holy, because of His Holiness, He loves unconditionally, His glory is everlasting, His faithfulness is unquestionable. He cannot deny Himself or go against Himself because He is Holy.

A heart of worship is found in every true worshipper. A true worshipper is always found in His presence, His tabernacle.

A worshipper with a heart of worship, is a perfect man, pleasing in God's sight. Perfect doesn't mean sinless, but is a man like David, a man after God's own heart.

What do you mean a perfect man?
James 3:2
For we all stumble in many things. If anyone does not stumble in word, he is a perfect man, able also to bridle the whole body.

What do you mean stumble in word?
James 3:9-10
With it we bless our God and Father, and with it we curse men, who have been made in the similitude of God. Out of the same mouth proceed blessing and cursing. My brethren, these things ought not to be so.

Matt 15:11
Not what goes into the mouth defiles a man; but what comes out of the mouth, this defiles a man."

Many fall into this category.
Matt 15:8-9

'These people draw near to Me with their mouth, And honor Me with [their] lips, But their heart is far from Me. And in vain they worship Me, Teaching [as] doctrines the commandments of men.'

It's only when we have a heart of worship, and we tame our tongue, purifies our worship and songs to God, creating a sweet aroma unto God, it's only then can we truely please God with our worship.

And we ought to repent and cleanse ourselves everytime we enter into a time of worship, how many times do we do that? No wonder we only get a tiny bit of God's presence, we need to do it lest we offend the Holiness of God's presence, and I can tell you for sure if you honor God's Holy presence, your worship will be in a deeper and more intimate level, when you'll be in the fullness of His presence.

God bless all who reads this.

yeeeehhhhh. hey guys, ok. so worship. wait lets start with synergiz. so seeing Jeff Deyo and the band was awesome, i mean talk about true worshipers! it was also a very encouraging and inspiring few days. this ears synergiz was great man. visions tht i had like a year ago, and kinda forgot, were shared by others, close friends actually. rite now i can go into it and talk aout it coz we agreed to keep in on the low. just be ready coz we're coming haha.
rite worship. about 2hrs ago, i felt prompted so i went into my room and sang a song of worship and sure enough, i was spoken to. this is the verse; John 3:14. "and as Moses lifted up the serpant in the wilderness, even so the Son of Man be lifted up." WOW! worship. acknowledging God, saying you love him, thanking him, praising his name. it comes from the heart and it need not necessarily be in song, it can be in prayer as well, simply spoken. if its from the heart, and your connected with God, talking to him, thanking him, then, even though you may not notice it, you are worshiping....well that is at least to me.
i really believe that understanding worship and growing in it connects you better with God's own heart. his plan for your life becomes a reality and you start to see things happen.
now, the first thing however, is to make sure we're right with God. sin is everywhere and its not easy growing up in this day and age trying to overcome it. but let me encourage u all. our strength comes fom God himself! we are not of this world. we do not belong to it. we are not ruled by our flesh. when i get tempted, i tell myself this over and over again. it works. when we get that and put it forward in our daily life, no power in hell can stand against us!
THERE CAN BE NO VICTORY WITHOUT A BATTLE FIRST!
this is what a leader in our church told me. this is so true. there can be no victory if we dont have to struggle. let us rise and take up the challenge. we are the chosen generation and we will see our generation changed! amen!
hahaha my spirit is just so excited because i know that great things are to come. very soon.
God bless you all.

yoyoyo. hey ppl. ok so we lost the competition. and i got the lowest score, was kinda discouraging but that night so many other, greater things happened that it really isnt that big a deal anymore. my apologies to wei qin however for going off key on the final note. my bad.
ok, so i haven't done this in a while; the reason being that i was not in a good place for a while. like kinda confused about stuff but now its good so yeh.
we just finished this years synergiz conference and it was awesome. Jeff Deyo and the band were just rockin. lots of thing to learn from them and the speakers. so it was an awesome week. ill go into like details on the various things another time. but for now;
i believe ive found a part of my ministry. Worship. its like the most awesome aspect and privilege that we have as Christians. You pour out your heart, through song or prayer and for a time there is a connection between you and God. wow, so thats what my life is going to be focused around from now. another thing about it is that we can just dwell in his awesomeness and the realization hits us, God starts revealing things to you. anyway gotta cut this short. take care guys and God bless.
