Worship outside the box!

I've been stressed lately......really tense, like something really needs to be released.  And a lot of that was released last night in one of the most worshipful moments that I have experienced in a long, long time.  It didn't happen at a church service in "worship set a, song number 2".  It didn't happen in an auditorium packed with Christians united in voice singing along with Steve Fee .  Nope.  It was at a small church, in a small town at 1:00am.

A good friend of mine was helping me by making signs for the Easter Egg Hunt Outreach we are doing at my home church .  We sat in the sanctuary of the church where he leads worship, making signs.  It did my heart good to hear how God is moving in his life.  After the signs were made, he picked up his Taylor guitar, his wife got on the piano, and my wife got on one of the mics.  Then God's Spirit rested on the building.

What I heard next was some of the most beautiful and genuine lifting of voices and instruments to the Lord God Almighty!  The first song made tears run down my cheeks.  I felt free and released.  There is power in worship.  Power to change lives, move souls and allow for rest.

Open up and give God some authentic worship!

God is a Spirit (a spiritual Being) and those who worship Him must worship Him in spirit and in truth (reality). John 4:24
