Worship

Worship is by dictionary definition, "the feeling or expression of reverence and adoration of a deity". It is declaring the worth of something. It is not at all about us. It is about how much we love and need God. Worship reflects our relationship with God, it is not our entire relationship with Him. An example of worship includes S.M. Lockridge's "That's My King" message. I recommend you look it up and listen to it, it really does create an impact.

Worship is something that has always been and always will be very important. The Bible even commands us to do it. Psalm 148:5 and 13, "Let them praise the name of the LORD, for he commanded an they were created. Let them praise the name of the LORD, for his name alone is exalted; his splendor is above the earth and the heavens." We were created to worship God with our whole being. Have you ever worshiped God with such passion that you saw nothing else around you? If you have you know that it's in those moments you feel most alive, when you feel the most complete. For those of you that haven't, that's how it feels, it's the most incredible feeling that's ever been experienced here on Earth, it's incomparable. So, what's stopping us from always worshiping God with that passion?

A lot of us live in a self-absorbed state. We tend to ask the question, "How does this benefit me?". Worship just isn't about us, it's God who is the audience, so it's the completely wrong approach to worship. We also concentrate so much on the music and those around us that we get nervous about really letting ourselves go to God. We look around at others around us and feel like they are all watching us, for that I recommend you go to a separate area by yourself so that you can just be alone with God and not have to worry about all the others.
