The Center of the Worship Service is Worship!

Worship is to God! Worship is for God. God speaks to us in worship. God deigns to own our worship, if He would, but the center of worship is not preaching, it is worship. Preaching is when we look to God, in worship. But we ascribe glory to God in singing and reading and prayer and all of that together is worship. "The Spirit and the Bride say...Come!" Them that come to God must believe that He is and is the rewarder of them that diligently seek Him. Seeking Him, will have some great portion of receiving preaching, but it will first be giving Him the glory. We sometimes think that our contribution is the greatest, when we are, either the "singer" or the "preacher". Neither is preeminent. Worship, is the greatest portion of worship. The Father seeks such to worship Him in spirit and in truth. God grant us eyes to see that when we ascribe the glory to You and receive Your ownership of our worship and fellowship with us; as we give or render worship to God, we will be transformed from our self-serving attitude to an attitude that wants to please You and not just do what is comfortable to our flesh.
What shall I render, unto God for all of His benefits...I will take the cup of salvation and call upon the name of the Lord. Halleluia what a Savior!
