What Worship Is

Pastor Shane is teaching the last part of a 3-week series on "Worship".  This week the youth are being taught, "What Worship Is":

There are 3 Types of People in this Church Service:
  1. The Chilled -- you go to service and go through the motions.
  2. The Thrilled -- service was a great show...the next service has to be greater or it becomes boring.
  3. Came To Be Filled -- came out of service life changed...filled with the Holy Spirit!
Where are you tonight? (Chilled, Thrilled, or did you Come to Be Filled) In 1Kings 18: 16-39, we learn from Elijah:

4 Ways You Worship God Best:
  1. Gage in a real living relationship with Him. (1Kings 18:22)
  2. Approach Him with genuine repentance. (1Kings 18:37) What is keeping your heart cold?
  3. You submit to His rulership in your life. (1Kings 18:39)
  4. When you allow Him to renew your life.
Where does God want you to be in Worship? Let's empty ourselves and fill up with God.

When We Worship God This is What it Does:
  1. Brings a new perspective. (We see things differently)
  2. Brings a desire to obey God.
  3. Helps us see that God is in control. (Worship gives us a physical, emotional and spiritual rest)
  4. Brings us power. (Worship empowers God's people)
What is Worship to You?
