Join us today as Pastor CJ shares the first part of a six part series: 6 Super Powers of the Supernatural Church: Worship

Key Scripture: John 4: 19-26

– The first super power is Worship
– We see false worship in the world today
– False worship is selective worship
– People pick and choose who/what to worship…only take the food that taste good off the buffet
– Jesus said we have to worship in spirit and truth
– Can’t just be spirit and no truth
– Can’t just be truth and spirit
– Spirit of God is always moving…we just choose to engage or not
– Do you worship as fire insurance or love for Him?
– God is trying to break you done (through worship) so he can put us back together the way he intended – How do we worship in spirit and truth:

1. Declaring who God is to you (Psalms 47:7-8)
2. Thanksgiving for God’s provisions (Psalms 126:2-3)
3. Celebrating God’s promises (Psalms 31:19)
4. Acknowledging God’s presence (Psalms 139:7-10)
5. Rejoicing in God’s path to life (Psalms 16:9-11)
6. Responding to God’s personal call (Psalms 37:39-40)

– When God calls…We have to respond
– If we don’t we will often create our own problems
– When we worship so that we can STAND (Sprint [and] Truth And Now Different)
– Worship is a sacrifice…used to take their most prized possession and sacrifice it before God…are you willing to bring your prized lamb to sacrifice in worship today
– Stop looking for man-made substitutes
– Instead allow yourselves to be fill with what will truly fulfill us

Notes:

– Naaman had to humble himself to be healed
– Through being healed Naaman says, “Now I know that there is no God in all the world except in Israel.” (2 kings 5:15)
