Use Your Weapon

In a world riddled with violence, why would I encourage readers to use their weapon? Because the weapon that I am referring to is not a gun, or a bomb, or weapons of mass destruction. But the weapon that I am talking about is your WORSHIP!

Your breakthrough, your healing, your deliverance, the breaking of generational curses, your obedience, revelation, the joy and peace of God is orchestrated through your worship. Worship gives us a direct connection to our heavenly Father. A true worshiper, worships God in spirit and in truth. “But the hour is coming, and now is, when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and in truth; for the Father is seeking such to worship Him. God is Spirit and those who worship Him must worship in spirit and in truth.” (John 4:24 NKJV) This is the first characteristic to define a true believer. When your worship comes from the heart, then you can tap into what you need. We have to get to a point where we understand that worship is ABSOLUTELY necessary.

What weapon do you use now when doubt, fear, anxiety, or worry come around. How about when you have a prodigal son/daughter that you’ve been praying for or a spouse that has abandoned the family. When you are in a stressful situation or when you have reached your wits end? Well I have good news and I have bad news for you. The bad news is that we live in a fallen world so problems are inevitable. The good news is that we have access to the response of our problems. As Christ-followers, worship is our main weapon against life’s problems.  When we worship, our problems don’t go away, but what the devil threatens to do in our lives through those problems goes away.
Worship is not only a weapon but it is a lifestyle too. Worship helps us endure trials and empowers us for witnessing. The worship of Almighty God gives us victory over the enemy.

Worship focuses us on the Lord. When we truly worship, we take "every thought into captivity to the obedience of Christ." We can't worship and be tempted to sin. We can't worship and lust. We can't worship and lie, hate, covet, gossip, cheat, etc… Worship brings about the Victory. It worked for Israel. It worked for Peter. It worked for Paul and Silas and it will work for you!!!

Don't stand at a distance; enter in! Refuse to agree with the circumstances of life and the deceptions of the enemy; bring your voice into agreement with the unchanging Word of the Lord. Choose this day that you will lift your eyes and enter into God's presence using the password of WORSHIP. Truly, one of the greatest weapons that you can ever put into action is the worship of God in your mouth!

Keep Calm and DIVA On!
