The Heart of Worship (Music) - Devotional

Read This: “Shout out praises to the Lord, all the earth! Worship the Lord with joy! Enter his presence with joyful singing! Acknowledge that the Lord is God! He made us and we belong to him; we are his people, the sheep of his pasture. Enter his gates with thanksgiving, and his courts with praise! Give him thanks! Praise his name!” (Psalm 100:1-4)


Watch This:

Think: It’s amazing how many of us turn into "American Idol" judges when it comes to worship music. Everyone has an opinion—it’s too loud or it wasn’t loud enough, there should be more back-up singers or there shouldn’t be any, the lights should be on or off, and on and on the discussion goes.

We become such critics of the music that we forget this whole thing is really about God, not us. Worship is an offering of praise to the Lord. It’s what we were created to do. Worship is about the state of your heart, not the style of music. You can sing your heart out to your favorite worship band, but if your heart isn’t focused on God, it’s meaningless.

 

Ask: How can you keep your heart focused on the true purpose of worship?

 

Pray: Ask God to open your heart so you are prepared to worship Him whenever and however the opportunity arises.
