The other day as I was preparing for worship, I asked myself this question…Why do I worship Jesus? Now, I know what some of you may be thinking…’aren’t you a worship pastor…why are you asking yourself this?’ YES…I am. I think it is healthy for one to ask themselves why they worship, so they are continually thinking about what Christ did. Jesus died a brutal death for me; therefore I should have no other choice than to worship.
Here’s why I worship:
I worship Jesus because He is my victory. I have been through many battles in life where I don’t see how I made it. There were many times when I wanted to give up or give in to the situations that were surrounding me. Yet I can look back and truly say that God was with me the whole time fighting for me. I am reminded of the verse in Deuteronomy 1:30, ‘The LORD your God, who is going before you, will fight for you, as he did for you in Egypt, before your very eyes…’. If God is the same God yesterday as He is today, then God will fight for you and cause you to be the Victor…not the victim…(I stole that last line from Joel Osteen lol)…wait, I just wrote lol…
Jesus conquered the freaking grave!!!!!! I want to encourage you to worship our Victorious Savior.
I’m really going to get into some hot topics over the next few posts on this subject matter. I hope to blog more than once-in-a-when-I-feel-like-it…
