The Life Of A Worship LeaderSample

Unconditional Love/Unconditional Worship

Worship is not about what we get from God, but rather what we give to God. He does not answer our concerns/prayers based on how much we praise Him. This would be conditional. What He wants from us is genuine praise - no strings attached - that is reflective of His unconditional love. (Isaiah 55:6)

Psalm 28:7 says: “The LORD is my strength and my shield; my heart trusts in him, and I am helped. My heart leaps for joy and I will give thanks to him in song.” Our worship is changed when our hearts are changed. As our hearts are changed, so are our lives and the songs we sing. (Psalm 3:3)

We approach God with a heart of trust, with a soul of humility and with a mind that brings every thought captive into the obedience of Christ. In this exchange, we find true freedom, true significance, true acceptance and, most of all, unconditional love. (Hebrews 4:16; Deuteronomy 4:29)

The changing of our hearts is also God's way of rescue. He causes our hearts to sing for joy because of Jesus Christ. Every song is new because every day is new and filled with His unconditional love that keeps us singing. (Psalm 16:9)

Reflection: Do you see yourself in the same way the Father sees you? How does unconditional love change your view of worship? Are you willing to allow God to have His way with you? Will you give Him your unlimited worship today?
