7/22/2015 0 Comments Jesus in DisguiseWorship is a tool that we can use to be able to hear the voice of God, our Shepard. Psalm 95:7 says, “For he is our God and we are the people of his pasture, the flock under his care.” And because we are the people of His pasture the flock under His care, worship is the appropriate response to God’s care for us. It’s the way we recognize Him as our God, it’s the way we respond to His care for us. And for us to respond to his care we need to be able to hear recognize Him and His voice. But I think at times we fail to recognize Jesus in the ordinary, and we must open our eyes in those divine appointments and opportunities He gives us. Many times our Father speaks to us in many different ways, through his Word, through others, and sometimes through experiences that we may not prefer to go through. Many times when we go through trials and tribulations we may think that God is not with us, we pray and ask God "where are you?" when in reality, It is just "Jesus in disguise" trying to speak to us and send us a message through the relationship, the trial and tribulation. We never know where Jesus may show up, or how He will speak to us! To be in the know, we must be in a constant state of worship so that we come to develop the attitude and relationship where we really hear God’s voice and knowing who He is. Being in worship puts you in a place where you can hear his voice. We come into God’s presence through our praise and thanksgiving. When we are in his presence, it would not be surprising if he has something to say to us! In worship, we position ourselves in front of God in such a way that understands that He is God and we are not – that He is the ruler of the universe and we are not. This is the type of fear that we are to have – not terror, but awe and respect. This puts us on the path to hearing his wisdom and understanding. Worship attunes us to God. Our praise and thanksgiving opens us up to receive all that God has for us. Worship is about knowing who He is when we hear and see Him. When you go into worship, consciously enter into God’s presence and be open to hearing and knowing Him in the innermost parts of your soul! Enter into Worship

What is Worship?
The Apostle Paul described true worship perfectly in Romans 12:1:
“I urge you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God to present your bodies a living and holy sacrifice, acceptable to God which is your spiritual service of worship." Worship is first of all an experience. It may express itself through certain forms, but it is not primarily a form. It is an experience. It is a consciousness of the presence of God and a response to that consciousness. Worship expresses itself as an outreach of the deepest emotions of the soul in adoration, reverence, homage, exaltation, and praise to the Almighty. We hope that our Worship Wednesday creates a deeper more meaningful worship experience for you. Visit our other inspirational blog
