The Heart Of Worship.

Something else occurred to me today, during worship.

For a long time, I've been really been motivated by worship. But I realized, I'm being motivated by the wrong things.

Lyrics, riffs, beats. All these musical aspects aren't what worship is about. That's what many of us get wrong.

Worship, in the simplest terms, is to praise the Lord, in anyway possible. It's just that the most prevalent form is musical, and that's where the lines begin to blur.

We can just be humming, or speaking words. As long as we have the right motive, to praise God, it's still considered worship.

We can have great guitarists, drummers, vocalists, bassists and all that, but if we're just there to sing the songs, and not realize the true meaning of worship, we're no different from an audience at a rock concert.

Bringing ourselves back to the heart of worship. To truly praise God, through anyway available to us, be it song, dance, poems, or even thoughts. To not get emotionally enchanted by the music, and forget the true meaning behind it all.


We always forget that the Devil is always lurking, even in "holy" places such as churches. He manipulates us, making us believe in the song instead of the praise.

We need to have that heart, that willpower to see through everything, and to find the true heart of worship.

Finding a heart to truly, bless His name.
