WORSHIP IS LIKE A PRECIOUS OIL
FROM OUR HEARTS
FROM OUR HEARTS
I believe that sometimes people do not understand the importance of worship. There are some who think it is just to save time in a meeting and are never interested to sing outside the church building. There are Christian leaders who do not understand it and some stop worship leaders after five minutes and say that is enough.
There are other leaders who understand some importance of it now, but hopefully will understand more later. People want to do things for Yeshua but sometimes do not understand the importance of the relationship with God. The relationship ought to be first. We need to be home too, and have time to seek God. We worship because that is having a relationship to God. It is giving your heart to Him. This is not a law but it is as between a bride and a bridegoom. As in Song of Solomon, anyone who loves you will want to express your love in words. You can use the song to express your love to Yeshua.
God wants our worship from our hearts. He loves us and He love to hear our voice singing worship to Him. In Song of Solomon 2:14 is written, "Let me hear your voice." He loves to hear us worship Him. We need worship in the church building but God lives in people's hearts. The ones who have received Yeshua are the temple of the Holy Spirit and we can sing in other places and at home. David was singing much outside with the sheep. It is written much about thanksgiving and to sing to God in the Bible.
In Ps.106 is written " Oh, gives thank to the Lord, for He is good! For His mercy endureth forever."
Sometimes we forget to thank God. It is good to remind each other about it. In Ps.100:4 we can read, "Enter into His gates with thanksgiving and into His courts with praise. Be thankful to Him and bless His name."
Worship is important and it is good to give thanks to Yeshua. I think dance to God can be like worshiping Him with your body. In the Bible we can see that David danced to God. Miriam did also. Worship is important and it is good to give thanks to Yeshua. I think dance to God can be like worshiping Him with your body.
David and Miriam understood the importance of dance and did it from the hearts because they wanted to lift up God with dance and song. When we are in difficult circumstances we need worship. Sometimes we can be in very difficult circumstances and then we need to worship. To rejoice in the Lord is our strength. When we worship we become glad. We rejoice in Him.
I have noticed that when you dance to God that you become joyful. Worship and dance to God does not have to be done if we only feeling like it. You can feel sad or discouraged but it is good to worship when you do not feel well also. It is a sacrifice of praise. Instead of complaining, it is good to turn it and gives thanks to God. It is good to read about how much He suffered before the cross and at the cross - to read more of it to get more revelation about how much He suffered for us personally because of His love to us.
Yeshua faced the hate, rejection and the biggest suffering while nailed at the cross. He showed His love for us. You can worship thinking about that. He knows what suffering is and He suffered so much for me at the cross because He loves me. We can always praise Him for what He has done for us at the cross - His immense suffering for us. We can thank Him for His love for us. We can thank God for that He is good and that His mercy endureth forever.
In Acts. 16:25 we can read, "But at the midnight Paul and Silas were praying and singing hymns to God, and the prisoners were listening to them." In the prison I do not think it was nice. It was a hard place to be in. Their strength then was to worship. When they worshiped I think spiritual things happened.
When you lift up God with worship it is also spiritual war against darkness. We can read in verse Acts 16:26 that things happened as prisoners were released. When we worship it causes things to happens. In meetings the presence of God can come. We can also worship in our homes. It is nice when someone plays guitar for instance, in addition to singing in a home. I think unsaved can get saved by hearing worship.
I have heard about people who have been healed in worship and it is good for your soul to worship. Yeshua is wonderful and worthy our worship!
Worship can be like giving God roses from your heart to Him. It is also like worship when you give your life in His hand. Your life is as symbolic as a rose you keep in your hand and give to Him. One time I danced with a rose to symbolize this.
Worship is like a precious oil from our hearts to Yeshua. The woman at his feet was crushed by His love and wanted to give something from her heart. She gave Him precious oil.
Yeshua loves to hear our voices and love to hear us worshiping Him! He is wonderful and worthy all our praise!
