Shout

"Shout to the North and the South
Sing to the East and to the West
Jesus is savior to all
He's Lord of Heaven and Earth"

From Shout to the North, Passion Band (Martin Smith)

I like this song. I'm listening to a song right now that says "You and I were made to worship"

..................

In a loud voice they sang: "Worthy is the Lamb, who was slain, to receive power and wealth and wisdom and strength and honor and glory and praise!"
Revelation 5:12, NIV.


Have you ever thought about worship "postures"? By this I mean in Scripture we see examples of the physical posture of those worshipping God (of course, what matters most is our heart - see Isaiah 29:13, and we come to God with "gladness" (Psalm 100:1), with "joyful songs" (Psalm 100:1), with "thanksgiving" (Psalm 100:4) and with "praise (Psalm 100:4)), but we can allow our posture to reflect our heart.

Here are some postures I see in Scripture: "falling down" (Rev 5:14), "standing" (Rev 7:11, Nehemiah 9:3), "dancing" (Psalm 50:4, 1 Chronicles 15:29), "bowing down" (Psalm 95:6), "kneeling" (Psalm 95:6).

My challenge is this: be intentional in your worship posture. Be engaged. Don't be in "neutral" in your worship to God. Your worship "audience" is God. Respond to Him.
