Pastor Coran preach another excellent Word of God to emphasize that..
Just as praise is important, worship is a must. 1 Chronicles 16:23-25, 29 (NASB) speaks specifically to this… Sing to the Lord, all the earth; Proclaim good news of His salvation from day to day. Tell of His glory among the nations, His wonderful deeds among all the peoples. For great is the Lord, and greatly to be praised; He also is to be feared above all gods. Ascribe to the Lord the glory due His name; Bring an offering, and come before Him; Worship the Lord in holy attire.
You must worship on the journey. When you worship on the journey, you will remind yourself that you need God. It will change your negative attitude. You can center yourself on Jesus. You will align your heart to God. It will authenticate your faith. You can surrender to God. You can acknowledge the holiness of God. It will honor God, as well as help you live holy. Above all else, you will remember God’s promises to you.
On the journey…
- Listen to worship music
- Sing worship songs
- Praise God out loud
- Keep a gratitude list or journal
- Pray constantly
- Read your Bible regularly
- Listen to the Holy Spirit
- Confess your sins often and repent
- Serve others at your local church and in the community
- Give to your church and others
- Be excited about your journey and your purpose
Remember…
This is your journey. Have a FUN ADVENTURE, filled with JOY. Focus on your PURPOSE. Remain true to your FAITHFULNESS. Trust God through the ANXIETY, FEAR, GRIEF, and PAIN. Adhere to godly WISDOM. Maintain HOPE in Jesus, and you will have the VICTORY.
Blessings,
