Sunday Post~Worship as a Weapon of Warfare.

2 Corinthians 10: 3 - 5 ~ Church members were engaged in a physical battle. For instance, when saw someone would go astray, they would beat him up, thinking they were engaged in a physical battle.

Our battle is however not physical...

Ephesians 6: 12 ~ We wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities...that's the war we are engaged in day and night.

Our weapons include: Prayer, Love and Worship, amongst others.

Worship is to adore.

Ephesians 5: 19, Colosians 3: 16

True worship proclaims that Jesus is above everything else; causing you to be released of what is letting you down.

We worship the ones we love. When we love God, we will sing to Him. God deserves our worship.

Worship invites the presence of the Lord in any situation. Daniel, Meshach and Abednego refused to bow down and worship the statue of Nebuchadnezzar. God was present in their fire.

Worship brings comfort and healing. King Soul was possessed by a spirit, which would leave when David played the harp (1 Samuel 16:14-17)

When should we worship the Lord?

• .     When you see trouble coming, praise the Lord, it could be difficult to praise the Lord when you are down cast.
•     Exodus 15: 1 - 21, they sang to the Lord because of the victory. Remember, the battle is the Lord's and the victory is ours.
•     Worship the Lord at all times (Psalms 96:1 - 2). Worship ought to be on a daily basis. Let a song of worship be on your heart everyday.

In conclusion meditate on Psalms 95:1 - 7.
