The Art – and Science – of Worship


But the hour comes, and now is, when the true worshipers shall worship the Father in spirit and in truth: for the Father seeks such to worship him. – John 4:23

Worship is the feeling and expression of reverence and adoration to God. It’s our natural response as Believers to God for who He is and what He’s done. We are nothing without worship. Without an opportunity for us to commune with our maker our spiritual lives become shrivelled and our minds atrophied.

We’d appreciate the importance of worship to our vitality when we observe the correlation between its discontinuation and the seasons of drought and dryness in our lives. We all must worship; as a matter of fact, Rev 4:11 tells us that we were created for worship. Hallelujah!

Nevertheless, there must be a system to our worship. As much as worship flows from our heart it must be in correlation with our heads.

Worship is not a mindless, mechanical act we perform because we’re “Christian”, it is a conscious expression of ourselves to God. And as much as it feels emotional, worship is actually an intellectual exercise. That is why Ps 47:7 says because God is the King of all the earth, we should praise Him “with understanding.”

God is not just seeking those who’ll worship in spirit, but also in Truth. (John 4:23)

AMEN.
More Blessings await you today; you’ll not miss them in Jesus’ Name.
