What Is Worship, Why Do We Worship, How to Worship

January Fasting Debrief

by Leave a Comment

We just came through a wonderful time of fasting and prayer. God has spoken to us in ways we’ve not heard him before. Our Pastor has said that we are in a season of living under an open heaven and that we need to be asking for specific, big things in this time. And I believe it!! I’m asking for some very specific things in these next few weeks and months and I’m believing for AUDACIOUS things!            So what is He saying to you? Have you been on a fast in January?

What has God said to you?

Please share with us!

A Lifestyle of Worship?

1Samuel 13:14 states that “the Lord has sought out a man after His own heart…”

We know, of course that Samuel is speaking about the young King David. So, here’s the question… What does it mean to be “a man after God’s own heart?”

Some say it was the fact that David was always quick to repent when confronted with his sin. Some believe that it was his humility in his dealings with King Saul. Some say it was his willingness to abandon himself and “worship the Lord with all his might.”

The theological offerings could go on and on but I’d like to know what you think.

I hear people constantly making statements like “We’ve gotten church all wrong!”, or “Most church leaders are crooks!”, or; I think the popular one right now is “We shouldn’t be worried about GOING to church, we should just concentrate on BEING the church.”

I only have one rule for this discussion: POSITIVE STATEMENTS ONLY!

I want us to look at this as a body (if you believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God and that He came to earth, lived a perfect life, died on a cross, and rose again on the third day, then we are in the same boat) and see if we can define what it is that the church is supposed to be. I want to find out what it means to “be the church.” I am asking God this year to make me one of those people to whom He would refer as “a man after His own heart.”

Ok… Here we go… What do you think?
