MOUNTAIN TOP LIFE, MFM DAILY DEVOTIONAL, THURSDAY 22 JULY 2021: The power of worship

TOPIC FOR TODAY: 22-7-21: The power of worship

By Dr D.K Olukoya General Overseer MFM worldwide

  

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Psalms 126, Psalms 127, Psalms 128, psalms 129, Psalms 130, Psalms 131, Psalms 132

FIRE SCRIPTURE: Mark 5:2-9

Memory verse: Luke 4:8

 And Jesus answered and said unto him, Get thee behind me, Satan: for it is written, Thou shalt worship the Lord thy God, and him only shalt thou serve.

Motivational Quote: Whatever you worship becomes your God. God’s true worshippers are carriers of His power and Glory.

Prophetic Word: Anything that has been designed to hinder your worship is thereby destroyed, in the name of Jesus.

Worship is both an attitude and an act. It is an attitude of reverence to a deity, a person or thing. It is an act of giving reverent honour and homage to God. Christians are to worship only the Almighty God.

He must be worshipped in spirit and truth. You can worship God with musical instruments, with your offering, with songs, with your life etc. When you worship, you are reminding yourself of His holiness, peace, wisdom and power.

Whatever you worship, you attract. When you worship God, He shows up. The example of the mad man of Gadara in the text above shows the power of worship. The major power of worship is that it brings divine intervention.

It attracts God’s presence and causes Him to arise. It brings His searchlight into deep-rooted problems and terminates the reign of darkness. It brings about deliverance and makes the impossible possible.

Worship is an essential part of Christian faith. Part of our Christian service is to worship God with our lives in spirit and in truth. Do you have deep-rooted and long-term challenges? Are you bound by sickness or demons? Look away from yourself and look unto God; offer Him quality worship and see Him in your situation.

However, if you have not surrendered your life to Jesus, your worship will be abominable to God. Giving your life to Christ is the basic form of worship before any other. Surrender your life today and see the intervention of God in your matter. Come let us worship the Lord.
