As we kick of this 12 day study I encourage you to really listen to what the Holy Spirit is saying to you! Read the scriptures and see how you best connect with God! Let the Word of God speak to you!
You connect best with God through adoration. You feel closest to God when you minister to His heart through worship. When you worship, you forget others are in the room because your attention and affection are focused on the King. Sounds, rhythms, cadence, and songs usher you into a deeper place. You can sing a lyric, but digest the lyrics by meditating and focusing on the One whom your soul loves. This leads you to see more aspects of God and grow in intimacy with Him. You encounter Him the most when you worship because this is what He has created you for. You worship God with your voice and instruments, but you also worship Him by stopping throughout the day to tell Him how much you love Him. You connect best with God through adoration by keeping your heart bent towards the Holy Spirit and keeping your ears open to hear what He says to you.
In Exodus 32, the Levites were one of the 12 Tribes of Israel. They were set apart by their loyalty and zeal for the Lord. When the rest of Israel bowed to an idol, the Levites stood firm to only worship the one true living God. Because they were set apart, they were tasked with the responsibility of the Tabernacle and to usher in God’s tangible presence through worship. Like the Levites, you minister to the Lord through music and focus on welcoming His Presence in every environment you are in. Meaning your focus is on serving and honoring Him rather than seeking something in return. Looking to Jesus is the easiest way into the throne room. Worship is how you enter into His Presence. To worship Him is to live, so worship in Spirit and Truth, in music and action, in sorrow and joy.
Suggested Activities:
- Write songs, poems, or love letters to God.
- Create a playlist of worship songs that get you into the Presence of God for your daily encounters.
- Sing Scripture. When you sing Scripture, it can help you understand it.
- Picture the Lord in front of you as you worship. How does He want to reveal himself to you?
- Spend time with your instrument or voice with the Lord. Offer this to Him. Even one note moves His heart.
- Sing your heart to Him - sing spontaneous songs.
- When you worship, put your mind on seeing the face of Jesus so you can sing directly to Him. Worship is not for you! Sing about what He has done and who He is.
- Sing or declare the Psalms.
- Sing in your spirit.(1 Corinthians 14:15)
- While reading your Bible, listen to worship music or worship pads (digital audio layer that provides an atmospheric or ambient background sound).
Encouragement:
In your worship, put your focus and adoration on the Lord instead of on what is grabbing your attention. When you worship Him, you are magnifying the Lord over everything in your life. Some think worship is a response to a feeling, but worship is a response to who He is. Don’t hold back your worship based on what you are feeling.
Worship the Lord at all times! The reason you can bless the Lord at all times is because He is worthy of worship at all times. You can give to Him before you receive. He is a rewarder of those who seek after Him (Hebrews 11:6). Find the way to give adoration to Him in the season you are in. Worship is a heart posture. Whether you can sing or you’re not musically inclined, you don’t need to perform. Your adoration moves God’s heart, no matter what you sound like.
In addition to the Scripture references attached to this day, the entire book of Psalms is a reference as well.
