Worship Ministry
Praise God for His wonderful presence. God definitely wants to see His people worshiping and exalting His Holy Name, and welcoming His Holy Spirit to continually dwell in the church and most of all is our personal intimacy with Him alone.
This is what a many of us have lost because of the pattern of the world that has diverted us from knowing His Will for each of us. I have to confess I face this and I believe many of us too. We have put our trust in man and the systems of this world rather than in God. Uniquely Psalm 118:8 was put right in the center of the Bible. Why is it so? You ask yourself and ask God. God knows our weakness, that's why He want us to fully trust Him at this time of life where believers have gone astray and has turned away from God.
We, the church that has experienced His Power and His Presence must continue to humble ourselves and continually asking Him to dwell in our church and our lives so that people from other churches can come and experience the same.
The Worship Ministry in the church had gone through thick and thin in the past years and yet we still need to rely on God's strength continually. We have reached this level because He chose to dwell in the presence of His people who earnestly seek Him with all our hearts, with all our minds and all our strength. Praise God!
A few areas that I personally feel which can help us are:
1. Humble ourselves
2. Seek God
3. Turn from our wicked ways.
4. And guess what? Visitations from God, healing, restoration, breakthrough etc.
I thank God for giving us talented musicians, dancers, singers and the rest of the worship team who are teachable, committed and submissive. Two persons that have led us into this spontaneous worship are our Pastor Felix and Bro. Jeffrey.
God has given Jeffrey so much in his musical and worship talent that the songs he picks are so anointed. Praise God! And of course, it is through our Pastor's leading and his personal intimacy with God that has brought us to this level. As he continues to encourage us to hold on, I believe there will be more to come, Amen!
Brothers and sisters, just to remind ourselves: Sometime things that happen in the church may seem illogical to our minds but to God, they are right and wonderful. God is not a disorderly God. His ways are higher than our ways and His thoughts are higher than our thoughts. What we need to do is to tap on to Him as the source of our strength. Remember! Psalm 118:8.
What the worship team is doing is for God and God alone. No other agendas. If you feel that God want you to serve in the worship team, come with the willingness to serve others, commit yourself and your time with us and I believe the talent that is given you will not be wasted. Who knows, God may lead and guide you to greater heights in the near future. Everything has to start from somewhere. Are you ready to commit? We are waiting.
Lastly, I encouraged all church members, friends and visitors to continually worship Him without ceasing until we see Him come back. Praise His Name forever.
