Worship Out the Problem!

Man Praying - smallWe all go through stuff in life.  Somtimes it is good and you feel like you're on top of the world, but we all experance days when things just seem so wrong, and you are totally fed up.


Over the last year I have learnt a lot about dealing with those 'blue' days that come upon you so unexpectedly.  But God has a gift that he has given to all of us, so we are able to face days like that and be able to pick ourselves up and hold our heads high thought the storm - and the gift is called worship.


This sort of worship is not something that has to be confined to Sundays, but can be experanced any where at any time.  The last thing on our minds may be to sing or play, listen to a CD, or whatever; but when we do, our sprit stirs and begins to lift us out of our doom and gloom.  God intended our sprits to rule our lives, not our bodies taking over our sprit.  We must always remember that our lives are spirit, mind and then body.  When we worship our sprit starts to come alive telling our mind and then our body that everything's okay and God is really is in control.  God can pull us through any situation though worship! 

 

Worship is a gift that will continue into heaven, and although it's good, and wonderful to do,  we need to train ourselves to worship,whenever things go wrong, and worship out the problem!  We don't need to part of a worship team to do this, as God gave the gift of worship to everyone.  Thank God that he does give us ways and means to avoid the devastating effects of out of contol worry.   Worry is not from him but of the devil, and with God's Word and Worship active in our lives, those problems will fade and Gods will can once again be seen in even the darkest valley!
