Heart of Worship


Bro. El'berd did a wonderful job at church today teaching the church music team on Worship. He also played a video clips of Paul Baloche teaching on music and worship.

I was expecting all the Leviticus & priestly responsibilities and blah, blah, blah.. but I did hear from the Lord during the teaching. Both Bro. El'berd and Paul Baloche stressed on Rom 12.1.

Rom 12:1

I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service.

The part that speaks very strongly to me is "which is your reasonable service". I really cannot articulate it but it tells me that God really looks so deep within, He requires each of us, sacrificial living, a lifestyle that is poured out for the Lord as a sacrifice, in every little bit we do daily, our speech, our little actions, submitting to the Lord in worship. And it boils down to our heart, the condition of our heart, we truly need a heart of worship. If we have a heart of worship, we will render that true worship to our dear Lord. And hence "our reasonable service" will come easy. And this time no pride can destroy it.
