This is an excerpt from the booklet to their cd 'Enter the Worship Circle.' All I have to say is...AMEN!!!
How do we worship God?
Worshiping God cannot be borrowed or "faked". Singing christian songs with enthusiasm is not worship, and neither is bowing reverently in a chapel...they are only outward exercises. True worship can never be a rehearsal of someone else's experience or tradition...we must hunger to touch God for ourselves.
So how do we meet God? Jesus sums up the radical message of the whole Bible when he says, "Anyone who has seen me has seen the Father" (John 14:9). He also said that He was THE doorway for us to enter the Presence of God (John 14:6). However, Jesus didn't speak of a single, momentary encounter with the Presence of God because it was His heart that we learn to have an ongoing, supernatural relationship with... a continual encounter!
Are you exp0eriencing God? Surely you are not satisfied with only one encounter... one touch!? Through worship we can interact with God" we can ask Him for help to love Him more, we can reflect His passionate pursuit, we can hunger for more of His presence! And when He meets us... and we respond with love... then we can truly call it worship!
I can be guilty of being a copycat. No more, I want to touch you for myself! I am not going to cheat myself any longer!!
