Some Things To Ponder For Worship Service

Thought I would share the verses the Lord put upon my heart for tommorrow. Be thinking about them and praying upon them. Many people have the misguided idea that being a Worship Minister, all you do is pick some songs and play them on Sunday morning. Yes... Some do that, but not me and so many other leaders just don't "play songs". I pray and seek the Lord about what He wants to do in worship. I prepare for a worship service just as I do when I preach or teach. 

I like to share, or educate those in the worship ministry about why we do we do it. Give a listen to the audio message I posted (it is about 14 min long) about the concept of singing praise in Psalms 105:2. And how having a right understanding of why we do something can have a mighty effect during worship. 

Audio Message 

Going with The Flow... Is It Biblical?

Verses

Psalms 105:1-4 (NKJV)  
Oh, give thanks to the Lord! Call upon His name; Make known His deeds among the peoples!
Sing to Him, sing psalms to Him; Talk of all His wondrous works!
Glory in His holy name; Let the hearts of those rejoice who seek the Lord!
Seek the Lord and His strength; Seek His face evermore!

Hosea 6:1 (NKJV)  Come, and let us return to the Lord; For He has torn, but He will heal us; He has stricken, but He will bind us up.

Change is Good

I want to thank everyone for making me feel so welcome as the new Worship Pastor. I know change can be difficult and sometimes uncomfortable. Trust me, I know what that is like. In the early 90's I got to be apart of some very awesome worship teams in the Houston area. And I have had the pleasure of being under and working with some great Worship Pastors. And there was a lot of change that went on during those years.

As we seek to expand our worship experience at Impact, no doubt there will be change in the way we do things... but change is a good thing when we seek to change or adapt to doing Bible things Bible ways. The art and science of worship is simply doing things the way God wants them done. And when we do things God's ways, blessings and prosperity follow. The science part of worship is digging into God's word, and seeing the way He wants things done. And then when we put those principles into action, the art or expression part kicks in.

So as we seek to do things God's ways in regards to worship, there will be times of discomfort and uncertainty. But, as long as we seek out God's counsel do it His ways, things will work out. Always keep in mind, you are ministers first and musicians second.

In His Service,

Rory
