I need to spend time in His presence first and connect with His heart . I do this by singing praises to him and pouring out my love on him in songs. what the Lord is after is a surrendered heart that is poured out to him. Like Mary of Bethany who poured out the costly ointment at his feet. this much Lord , I love you. https://worshipwarriorsministry.com.au/ Edited July 17, 2019 by George Removed Video -- All videos need to be posted in the Videos section.

Whether that be thanks for the surprise visitor, or the extending literally a cup of cool water to a stranger in the name of Jesus matters not; for it all is submission born of appreciation that God the Holy Spirit first called specifically to me and turned me about from my sin against God to my submission to Him through His Son Jesus who is my Lord God and personal savior. That was done by God alone without any merit within me. God has chosen to reveal himself and call me to him as His own child, to be born again. Not restored for I was born totally depraved, but born again adopted into the household of God. I also worship in song alone or in the presence of my wife, or most anyone that happens to overhear, with many tunes hymns and praises. At my age I do love a couple of simple songs, not full of great doctrine but full of accurate promise; "Ain't No Grave" and "I'll Flyaway". As I have the promise that is certin that I will go one way or the other to be with my Lord Jesus in the presence of God the father for eternity with the Holy Spirit. Ha, I am sure a few people have thought where's the net needed to take that guy to the booby hatch asylym. when they see this crusty looking old dude singing I'll Fly Away, or especially Claude Ely's version of Ain't No Grave going to hold this body down" And yes I do give thanks to God for that good parking space that opened up, and also the nearly full parking lot that makes me get some exercise walking the hot asphalt. - Giving literally thanks in all things, a form of appreciative worship, the trust in God. There are many things that happen that are awful hard to take in this life in the flesh! There are things that hurt deeply that I do not understand the need of, but I give thanks even in the matters which hurt deeply. For all thing do work together for good for those that are in and of Christ Jesus with the God granted privilege of worshipping in song, from It IS Well to Joy Comes In The Morning. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
