30 LETTERS TO MY CHURCH on DISCIPLESHIP - LETTER 11




LETTER 11 - A DISCIPLE WORSHIPS THE LORD

I want you to learn and grow in worship to our Lord.

1984. In a forest preserve outside Lansing, Michigan. When I was assured that no one was looking. I raised both my hands high over my head. And I worshiped God.

This was the beginning of something new. I was learning more about worship. I am an ever-growing student, and Jesus is my all-wise Teacher.

I had already been a worshiper for fourteen years. I began by experiencing joy as I sang new songs to the Lord. Often, especially when alone, my joy flowed in tears. I learned that, not only was it OK to cry before the Lord, but my joy was a vessel that contained worship.

Worship is a lifelong learning experience.

Real worship springs from the spirit, and expresses truth. Disciples of Jesus learn to worship in spirit and in truth. (John 4:24) 

Today is the day when authentic worshipers are being released, across the world. I am one of them.

So are you.

Remember - It’s all going to end in worship. 

Then I heard what sounded like a great multitude, like the roar of rushing waters and like loud peals of thunder, shouting:

“Hallelujah!
    For our Lord God Almighty reigns.
Let us rejoice and be glad and give him glory!
- Revelation 19:6-7



Love,

PJ



DECLARATIONS

I am a true worshiper of Christ.

Sometimes I break out in spontaneous worship.

My spirit overflows in worship.

My worship today is preparing me for an eternity of worship.

When I think of all Christ has done for me, worship expands my spirit.
