Living To Worship…

Sacred Journey Devotionals: A Journey To Wholeness2 Comments

Good morning, Precious Family:

May the Peace of God be with you at all times and in all places.

Family, as followers of Christ, we know that we were created to worship the Lord in mind, body, soul, and strength. There is no situation that we will ever be in that is not an act of worship.

When we wake up in the morning, there is an opportunity to worship.

When we greet our family in our home, there is an opportunity to worship.

When we go out to eat, there is an opportunity to worship.

When we are sitting in traffic, there is an opportunity to worship.

When we are alone with God, in our secret place/prayer closet, there is an opportunity to worship.

We must be in the habit of being in a state of continual worship. Heaven will be a place where worship never ceases. We better start practicing now.

Holy Scriptures

Revelation 4:8-11

Tree of Life Version

8 The four living creatures, each having six wings, were full of eyes all around and within.[a] They do not rest day or night, chanting,

“Kadosh, kadosh, kadosh
    Adonai Elohei-Tzva’ot,[b]
    asher haya v’hoveh v’yavo!
Holy, holy, holy
    is the Lord God of Hosts,
    who was and who is
    and who is to come!”

9 And whenever the living creatures give glory and honor and thanks to the One seated on the throne, who lives forever and ever, [c] 10 the twenty-four elders fall down before the One seated on the throne and worship Him who lives forever and ever. And they throw their crowns down before the throne, chanting,

11 “Worthy are You, our Lord and God,
    to receive glory and honor and power,
For You created all things,
    and because of Your will
    they existed and were created!”

Family, I have a question for you. If someone spends the day with you, how do you think they would describe your life?

Does your life have the holy fragrance of Christ? Do you love before you judge? What if you have different political views? What if you encounter someone who is from a different culture?

What fragrance will you have? Yours? God’s?

Think on these things…

I love you, All, with the redeeming and everlasting love of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.

Your sister,

The Throne Room…

Sacred Journey Devotionals: A Journey To Wholeness2 Comments

Good morning, Precious Family:

I pray this letter finds you resting well in God’s perfect Peace. My prayer is that the peace of the Lord be with you always.

This week has had its highs and lows. I had the pleasure of ministering this past Sunday with my stepfather, who I call Papa. He brought the preached Word (Sermon) and asked me if I would minister in song.

I’m always humbled and overjoyed to be called into service for the Lord. This particular time, the Holy Spirit did not lead me to sing a certain song. Instead, I was led to teach on worshiping by way of a Throne Room experience.

I shared, with the congregation, the gift and purpose of Worship. More importantly, I taught on the “why” of Worship. As I taught, I gave examples through singing from my heart, as if I were one of the angles and elders bowing before the Throne of God, as mentioned in Revelations 4.

Worship is an experience and a destination. Before we ask for anything, for ourselves or anyone else, we must acknowledge the pure holiness of God. My peculiar anointing and calling, as a servant of the Cross, is Worship.

I want to help the body of Christ understand that worship is not about singing words on a page or words scrolling across a screen. Worship is about relationships and humble reverence in how we approach and usher in the presence of God.

Holy Scriptures

Revelation 4:6-11

International Standard Version

6 In front of the throne was something like a sea of glass as clear as crystal. In the center of the throne and on each side of the throne were four living creatures full of eyes in front and in back. 7 The first living creature was like a lion, the second living creature was like an ox, the third living creature had a face like a human, and the fourth living creature was like a flying eagle. 8 Each of the four living creatures had six wings and were full of eyes inside and out. Without stopping day or night they were saying,

“Holy, holy, holy
    is the Lord God Almighty,
        who was, who is, and who is coming.”

9 Whenever the living creatures give glory, honor, and thanks to the one who sits on the throne, who lives forever and ever, 10 the 24 elders bow down and worship in front of the one who sits on the throne, the one who lives forever and ever. They throw their victor’s crowns in front of the throne and say,

11 “You are worthy, our Lord and God,
    to receive glory, honor, and power,
        because you created all things;
they came into existence
and were created because of your will.”

I ask for your prayers, as God sends me out to different churches teaching on worship and intimacy with God. May I also ask a special prayer for my Papa, who right now is in the Intensive Care Unit at a local hospital here in Georgia.
