What is God's definition of Praise and Worship?
Mr. Noah Webster was a Godly man,
anointed by The Holy Spirit, to bring a dictionary form definition of
the English language. From the written information below, you may
search out in your heart What is true Praise and Worship to God? In
prayer, which gives revelation to God's truths, He will show you His
meaning of praise and worship in your personal life. I am but one part
of the Body of Christ. Individually we are different parts, working
together as one to edify Jesus and to be His Church. Thus, I can not
relate an exact musical form to you in individually praising and
worshiping. The word speaks "You shall worship me in Spirit and
in Truth". Jesus is our pure example to follow. As you ask God
how He desires you to Praise and Worship, I guarantee He shall teach
you. In each culture, many forms of music driven praise and worship
are acceptable to God. Yet as God desires Truth Holy Spirit driven
praise and worship, there is a definitive flow in Spiritualism that
draws worship and praise from man that is not acceptable to God. This
is where an individual or church assembly falls away from the true
Holy Spirit and from the Truth of Jesus and the true Word. Satan is an
imposter, He deceives mankind, then accepts all praise and worship
offerings that cannot enter into the purity of God's presence heaven.
Satan is very happy when He leads any person away from the Lord's
truth via the fake anti-Spirit that imitates Jesus. In our world, this
is a very present apostasy, an anti-Christ spiritual flow is very
apparent. For even "the elect shall be deceived" as true
Christians accept false teachings that lead to destruction. Grace
covers this today but seasons shall change. God is the same yesterday,
today and forever so we must relate our love for Him in life. The
importance of Godly lifestyles and remaining pure from sin allows your
praise and worship to be pleasing unto God. In each individual, praise
and worship must become a 24/7 lifestyle. This means each believer
totally submitted to God as living sacrifices, in 100% obedience only
to His written word, following only His commandments and always doing
and living within the will of the Lord. We must confess all sins and
remain as Children submitted to a father. One could write a book on
this subject yet at present please read the dictionary definitions
below and ask God in prayer and meditation how He desires YOU to
praise and worship only Him. Follow your heart, His word and live for
Jesus! Selah.
praise
\Praise\, v. t. [imp. & p. p. Praised; p. pr. & vb. n. Praising.] [OE. preisen, OF. preisier, prisier, F. priser, L. pretiare to prize, fr. pretium price. See Price, n., and cf. Appreciate, Praise, n., Prize, v.] 1. To commend; to applaud; to express approbation of; to laud; -- applied to a person or his acts. ``I praise well thy wit.'' --Chaucer. Let her own works praise her in the gates. --Prov. xxxi. 31. We praise not Hector, though his name, we know, Is great in arms; 't is hard to praise a foe. --Dryden. 2. To extol in words or song; to magnify; to glorify on account of perfections or excellent works; to do honor to; to display the excellence of; -- applied especially to the Divine Being. Praise ye him, all his angels; praise ye him, all his hosts! --Ps. cxlviii. 2. 3. To value; to appraise. [Obs.] --Piers Plowman. Syn: To commend; laud; eulogize; celebrate; glorify; magnify. Usage: To Praise, Applaud, Extol. To praise is to set at high price; to applaud is to greet with clapping; to extol is to bear aloft, to exalt. We may praise in the exercise of calm judgment; we usually applaud from impulse, and on account of some specific act; we extol under the influence of high admiration, and usually in strong, if not extravagant, language.
General Update: Over 3 years ago the Lord spoke to my heart about a season which reflected "40 months in the wilderness". As we remember Jesus was lead into the wilderness for 40 days, I praise God for the strength and dedication of our Savior. I praise God that he chose me to serve and to face similar situation as Jesus did. The past several years, especially the last of these 40 months have been difficult. As similar to Job, satan was allowed to enter into our pathways to bring both physical pain and adversity. I consider 'refinement' required for each Christian. Christ was required to be separated 40 days to give us the example of perseverance in the midst of spiritual war. The power to overcome the powers which are of satan, the one in whom he spoke as the "prince of this world" come through the gift of faith. The fire of refinement is often painful. For without Jesus, the power of His sacrifice, we would be consumed by the flames. Though the same fires which when submitted under satan can destroy, are used by God to refine. The purity which comes from extended refinement allows God to use us in the next seasons of ministry. Becoming worthy vessels is the outcome. (see James Chapter 1) God's command was in entering the wilderness was "all old things shall pass and all things shall become new". Losing the last trace of man made religion, losing the things of this world, losing my former life yields God's true blessings , spiritual gifts. Being able to see all things through the Lord's eyes under a greater awareness what is occurring in the heavens and in the world is such an honor. Simply put, We are spiritual beings, and in becoming refined, molded into what God wants us to be, we are made able to serve God. The TRUE GLORY of the Lord is appearing over the horizon as the "Son rises". As we realize the Biblical passages of Revelation 1-4 coming to pass, we worship the Lord for His forgiveness, His cleansing, His grace. love and mercy. As we enter into our next season of ministry our hearts reflect upon God's love and judgment. We must accept the coming suffering in the US and around the world. We must be prepared to use our gifts to serve others. God's love allows adversity and pain in the church and the world to come. Every person, including you and I, are given the question "choose this day in whom you will serve". I am sad yet overwhelmed by joy knowing the changes that are upon us as seasons change. The blindness of many now flowing in their "material blessing" will yield correction as the Lord builds his Church on His Spiritual foundation. Why must the Lord act? The fear of God lacks in most lives. Many church leaders preach a material based message as they add to, ignore and take away from God's Word. Few people now have the fear of judgment as they flow into anti-Christ (the material based Christ) . For even within the church, people are blatantly breaking God's law, His 10 commandments. Hedonism, self love, hidden spiritual forces at work manifest darkness. In God's time, as true repentance and cleansing does not occur, judgment has historically always come. Many still hold on to the old and don't allow the blood to cover their sin, so they choose to remain in Sodom and Gomorrah. God's anger stirs as it was in the days of Noah. As this rebellion against God's word occurs, satan is allowed to move into the Temples. The spiritual flow of the anti-Christ, an imitation of that which is true, is apparent in many assemblies. Angels of darkness parading as angels of light are in the midst of many churches. Hidden to most people, these demonic forces are driven to destroy the very foundation of the church. Paul speaks "no wonder satan parades around as an angel of light". Yet with Jesus as the chief cornerstone, as the written Word of God is the foundation of truth, God will once again bring His children into restoration, in preparation for the judgment that comes to our world. In God's time schedule we first must see judgment and cleansing within the church which is now. Referred often as the separation of the wheat from the chaff, Jesus comes to prepare His Bride. Those who chose to remain in the false beliefs (the anti-Christ flow away from the Biblical foundation) will be spiritually unworthy to serve God. God can judge them and determine their fate as the knowledge of Christ does not give salvation. Reflect upon Judas, we see that the gospels speak "and satan entered into Him". Thus, the choices of many will allow the darkness now Hidden to be seen as what it truly is very soon. As this cleansing of the Church occurs, the person who is the True Anti-Christ is prepared. Many men who throughout the ages could have been considered a form of the anti-Christ. Historically their actions yield great abomination to their societies in due season. You must remember these men started out appearing as good, a great person who would bring restoration and 'flesh comfort' freedoms - "personal blessing" to the people they lead. Yes, a man today whom is coming into political power can be the anti-Christ. As judgment comes to the world, this man will be allowed great power to appear as the one whom can bring the world out of its hardship. As the Lord allows this information to be released, we will share what He desires us to share with to you. I mention all of this to then ask you to please not focus upon the future of the world when now is the time for personal refinement and preparation. Do not follow after the words of the so called Prophet ministries as most of them walk in a form of Godliness. They have no idea of what they are speaking is wrong. With the Bible and their personal interpretation, they give many aspects of Revelation without the true Holy Spirit's interpretation of the scripture. Thus, they lead many astray in the pathway of deception which they chose. Please, in this season of change, allow the Lord to speak to and change your heart. Before any war or battle, the troops are prepared. Today is the day of preparation, individual life changes which the Lord will mold you to become. We choose to serve Christ and to follow only the Biblical word to be made ready for battle. The Lord seeks your heart to be opened as you dedicate to sacrificial service. Praise and Worship is a lifestyle, remember disciplined prayerful lifestyles based upon God's Word is mandatory in your personal being. We at A.M.I. / FeedTheNeedy.com Ministries pray that as you read the song lyrics below that you will go out , care and share as Gospel Messengers, allowing the Holy Spirit to guide you in service to Jesus. Our example in sacrificial obedience is written and planted in our hearts. The Heavenly Father's will shall bring you into the streets, into the forgotten places, as you reach out to the Children of the Night. Choose to serve while it is still called today!
Poem- The BattleThe act of confusion is ringing in the air Prayers in vain rise into the troops deep despair The shadow is rising from the valley of sin A battle is raging, what time is it going to end The Prince takes mount on a heavenly steed His intentions are to protect His warriors in need The angels of darkness have seemed to overcome Though the soldiers grow weary, His battle has not yet begun The field of victory shows scars from years in this pain Oh the doubt of the soldiers has placed them in chains As the enemy still contemplates the fall of each man The Prince arrives to fulfill His Father’s battle plan His sword is then raised and the dark enemies flee The soldiers cry upward and shout with great glee This time is now the troops choose to overcome As the darkness becomes light, by the power of God’s Son The enemies are bound into the eternal lake of fire The aura of sin is replaced by faith and desire Our prince has brought peace to this battle today In His ride from this field we all heard him say: Your cries have shed tears on this battles field Through trials you’ve found the pain that you yield Did you believe the parable each reaps what is sown How could you show defeat when your victory was known Belief is Childlike faith; my Spirit shall guide your way With my Word as your sword, victory is yours every day ã1994 Tom Chapman / Apostle Ministries International
