The Heart of a Worshiper

I know that it has been sometime since my last post. It is not entirely my fault. Schedule got jammed. I also began working on a blog centered around the controversy surrounding Chris Brown. I could not articulate my thoughts the way that I wanted to but it will be coming soon. During the month of July, I was led to preach a sermon series on Worship. I think it profoundly changed my congregation and myself. I admit without reservation or hesitation, that I am a Worshiper. I love being in the presence of God. Nothing gives me more joy and pleasure than to reverance God through worship. I believe that we are in the season where God is beginning to elevate willing and available, authentic and sincere vessels who worship in Spirit and in Truth. Worship is ones heart desiring and yearning after God. It is not only shouting but also sacrifice. This past month has been a refreshing revelatory reminder to me of the importance of just staying in God's presence. That is through morning morning devotions, continual prayer and fellowship with other believers. I have begun again to take my spiritual disciplines to a higher dimension, not just to manipulate God to move, but simply because I long to be closer.When was the last time you laid on your face for God? When was the last time your prayers talked about more than what you want God to do for you? I woke up this morning and simply told the Lord, "I Love You More Than Anything".....My prayer and desire for the people of God is that in this season you long and run after God like never before. God wants to be found by you. It does not have to be another conference or TV marathon, but if you want to experience the uncompromising and unconditional love of God, just want Him more than anything.
