WORSHIP IN MUSIC (Pt.1)

August 19, 2013 · Lanre Oyeleke · 3 views

Eph5:19- Speaking to yourselves in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody in your heart to the Lord

There's an adage that says, 'Music is food to the soul' which is partially true but looking critically at the make – up of man; Man is a Spirit that lives in a body and has a soul…. Hence you're a Spirit that has a soul (the soul is the seat of emotions, intelligence etc.)

If as a minister or even a worshipper, when you "sing songs to God" all that is affected is your emotions, you cry, you scream, you feel goose bumps, you feel good (which are all fantastic) but your Spirit which is the real YOU doesn't get anything…I'm sorry!!!! You just wasted time…

All the actions of emotions has to be a product of a Spirit that is getting something tangible in worship. When these actions come aloof then it is not yet worship.

Action point

Father, help me to give you quality worship In Jesus Name.
