Worship what comes to mind

-some love a new song
-some love a powerful promise
-some love a song from christian radio
-some love the songs of their faith journey
-some don’t really love singing at all

“Every time on sundays I never want to miss the worship music because I feel it prepares my heart to receive the message.”
D.M

What are other ways to worship?

Worship is a way of life, but is what we worship good?

-The human heart is a worship factory.

“just like a toddler throws a tantrum over a toy or something colorful, us adults do the same over money, power, sex, popularity, drugs, alcohol….”

-our loyalty and passion chases what we believe to be the greatest most worthy object in all of life.

“Don’t you know that when you offer yourselves to someone as obedient slaves, you are slaves of the one you obey—whether you are slaves to sin, which leads to death, or to obedience, which leads to righteousness?”
‭‭Romans‬ ‭6:16‬ ‭NIV‬‬

4 commons areas we chase and worship

1 Power
Mark 9:33-34

2 control
Mark 10:35-37

3 applause
Matthew 16:16

4 pleasure
Luke 22:4-6

Are we chasing our own kingdom or the Kingdom of God?

-We are full of worldly worship, God says put your faith on the things of above. During this situation I have seen where my worship lays. Yes i love God, I have faith in Him but because I see the world I tend to believe in the things I’m m seeing, but God says “Blessed are those who have not seen and yet still believe”
D.M
