Why We Worship II

Text: John 4:21-24

Bible Reading in One Year: 2Sam.16-18

A great and dynamic tool that can connect mere mortals to the supernatural power of the spirit is the medium of worship. All religions on earth no matter their beliefs admit to one thing that there is God and He is to be connected with through prayer and worship. The very fiber of the human soul is designed to desire connection with a supernatural intelligence which is God. True satisfaction streams from a life that is connected to God in continuous worship and praise. Genuine worship is extremely powerful because it takes our focus off the problems, pressures and frustrations of this world and fixes our gaze on Jesus. And as we concentrate on the goodness of Jesus, the burdens and pains we feel are lifted. This is the reason why it is easy to be healed and delivered from the works of Satan under the thick anointing in worship atmospheres or meetings. Satan cannot stand the character of a worshipper. (Psa 22:3)

Worship cleanses us from satanic activities and activates us towards the things of God. It is easier to hear the voice of the sweet Holy Spirit, be inspirited in righteousness and exercise deeper levels of spiritual authority in worship because worship is a tuner; it is a doorway to encounter God. A true worshipper is always renewed and revived, full of joy and peace because there is no better place to be than where God is praised.

When the Bible admonishes all that have breathe to praise the Lord, it actually means that praise should be spontaneous to the believer as breathing is to all living. In all the miraculous signs and wonders that the children of Israel saw and witnessed in their exodus from Egypt to Canaan, they didn't learn to worship God for His wondrous acts enough. Consequently most of them didn't get to the Promised Land; not because God lied on He promise but because they murmured against Him instead of praising Him. When we worship we accelerate the promises of God over our lives.

Worship makes it easy for God to bless us. I tell you, the good life is for the worshipper. I don't care what you are going through now, I dare you to praise God anyways. I dare you to lift those hands even in that struggle and give Him all the glory because He is good and His goodness isn't any less just because you had a bad day. This is what David meant when he said in Psa. 34:1 I will bless the LORD at all times: his praise shall continually be in my mouth.

Prayer/Action
* Thank The Lord because no matter what you're going through, he is still faithful.
* Ask the Lion of the tribe of Judah to ride on your praise and destroy the enemy of your destiny fulfillment.
* Pray that the miracles, signs and wonders that follow true worshippers will be your daily experience.
* Declare that every sin, guilt and the spirit of condemnation that dilutes the power of praise and worship is dismantled and dislodged now, by the blood of Jesus.
