Let's talk about WORSHIP



  Hi everyone! It's me Steff and this is a new blog...this time I write in English only. ;) My biggest desire is to talk and write about worship...so here we start. Today I will share some answers I received from different worship leaders, just leaders or simply worshipers.

 WHAT DOES "WORSHIP" MEAN TO YOU?

  Worship?...is not just music. Worship is not about talent. Worship is that attitude of heart...when you bring all that you have to the altar of sacrifice(just like the woman that brought her last two tiny coins in offerings for God) and He will pour out the blessings. Worship is when your heart sings with the angels ' Holy, Holy, Holy is the Lord God!' and the place fills with His presence and His fragrance. Worship is that attitude of your heart before Him... that sincerity and inner beauty He can't resist it, but to love you back and He will overflow you with His love and He'll reveal His beautiful secrets to you. Worship changes you, and makes you more and more alike the One that is the source of you worship- like Jesus Christ. Worship doesn't talk about you and what you can do, but it speaks through you about WHO He is and WHAT He can do. Luminita Ciuciumis(worship leader)


 In my opinion...worship is happiness. The God I worship is a God of Happiness. Iuliu Centea(pastor)


 To me worship is all about having an honest heart towards God. Not putting on a show, but sincere devotion to God through whatever we are going through in our everyday life. Andy Smith(worship leader)


 Worship is my life.Worship as a life style is the ability to make an act of worship out of every word, every action or thought. It's getting my life in order, having the right perspective regarding the spiritual things. It's my invitation for God to come and bless every part and aspect of my life and family. Nick Decean (worship leader)

 Anything you do for God's glory is worship. Aron Atamba(worship leader)


Worship is the response of my heart to God's love for me. It's also having a meal with Jesus, the love of my heart(Rev.3:20). Only to lay in His arms allowing His love to fill my heart till it overflows. Worship is the moment when I can hear His voice and I can speak privately to Him...it's the moment I choose to trust Him no matter what's happening around me, no matter what my circumstances are. And He gives me wings like eagles and fills me with supernatural dunamis power. Calin Ciuciui(leader) 


I worship when I pray to God. David Anthony( a little boy)



  I love the verse from John4:24   “God is spirit, and those who worship Him must worship in spirit and in truth.” 
 Another translation says : 
 "It's who you are and the way you live that count before God. Your worship must engage your spirit in the pursuit of truth. That's the kind of people the Father is out looking for: those who are simply and honestly themselves before him in their worship. God is sheer being itself—Spirit. Those who worship him must do it out of their very being, their spirits, their true selves, in adoration."The Message (MSG)

Worship is not just an awesome trend in christian music, is not a specific holy ritual, is not just a beautiful program we make every Sunday in church, is not my personal time with God...worship is who I am and how I live every single minute of my life. Worship involves everything we are. Our mind and heart, thoughts, words and actions...everything!  To worship is to live a life that is holy and pleasing to God.


 We'll talk more about worship, but keep this in mind for the moment- Worship is who you are and the way you live.
