July 9, 2009 ~ CHALLENGE

I continue to be amazed at the Lords faithfulness to us as his! I was listening to Jason Upton's cd, Faith today as I was traveling to and from the university. I was taken back to a few months ago when I was standing in my kitchen listening to the song, Where the Spirit of the Lord Is, from that cd and the Lord's power poured over me and ministered in a great and mighty way: where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is Freedom!

CHALLENGE: Worship the Lord your God with your life. Approach your time of worship with the Lord actively remembering that worship means to ascribe worth to something/someone. I say this because it is important that we understand that worship is not a time to focus on our wants, our desires, our hardships and joys. Rather, worship is when we approach the throne room of our God and give thanksgiving for all He has done and all that He is doing, and all that He is going to do. Give thanks for the attributes and character of God. Our time of worship should not be a 'shopping cart' experience. No, it should be a time where we focus our hearts on on giving thanks and praise and honor and glory and power unto our Lord and King. Actively pursue the worship experience and be blessed!
