| The Ministry of Worship
Worship is a life-style. It's a life lived in total submission to
God and His will. It isn't something we just do on Sunday mornings,
it's a daily attitude..
The praise worship on Sunday morning is a spiritual exercise to get us
ready for our week of living Worship!
Worship is a spiritual act demanding sacrifice as in the story of
Abraham and Isaac. (Genesis 22:1-15)
It is an act of the will, not an emotion. When we enter into worship, our emotions will follow.
Corporate worship should lead to the experience of being in His presence. This is accomplished through song,
reading scripture, prayer,
and the Word of God that leads us by...
- Invitationbeing called into the sanctuary
- Engagementthe attention is turned towards God
- Exaltationfocus is on the Mighty God
- Adorationmoving from transcendence to His imminence
- Intimacyexperiencing the "holy kiss"
of our Heavenly Father
