I love to worship God. I love to praise Him for who He is and for what He has done in my life. I love to be in His presence to adore the One who dramatically changed me forever. The good news? I have the opportunity to worship God all day long, every day. It isn\u2019t reserved for Saturday evening or Sunday morning.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"IMAG1492\"<\/a>As a matter of fact, Romans 12:1 (NIV) tells us, \u201cTherefore, I urge you, brothers, in view of God\u2019s mercy, to offer your bodies as living sacrifices, holy and pleasing to God\u2014this is your spiritual act of worship.\u201d<\/em> Our daily lives are to be our worship!<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Over the past eleven years, I\u2019ve had the privilege of being on staff at two of our brotherhood\u2019s mega churches. I have been blown away by the work and mechanics that goes into preparing a worship service. There are lyrics to consider. There are dynamics and mood of the song to take into account. There is much going on weeks ahead of any given worship service I\u2019ve attended at either of these churches, and I suspect it is the same at any church across the nation.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Because I know what worship leaders (and the Holy Spirit) have been up to, I believe I enjoy worship so much more. I know the time and effort the team must expend each week for our worship services to be as they are.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

I also praise God regularly for the song writers who have been given the talent to obey the Holy Spirit\u2019s prompting and write worship songs for me to sing. These men and women use their talents to help spread the Gospel! These worship songs just might be the only way someone will hear the message of Christ.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

So today as you read and listen to this beautiful song from the 1980\u2019s, I pray that you will spend time in worship, pray for those who are preparing worship services in your church, and ask the Lord to bless song writers with inspiration.<\/p>\n
