Worship Team!

Personal Worship and Corporate Worship One cannot replace the other

Leading Worship You cannot lead people to a place you haven’t been to

yourself… unless you are the vessel that THE greatest and highest Leader (God) is leading people through.

How do I lead Worship? Seek, Watch, Learn, Pray, Practice, Grow, Translate (what God

spoke to you through music, prayer, words, sound, etc)… And the list goes on… really.

So About Worship…

It’s not about what you have, It’s about what you are willing to have

and give

Worship is not just a form of serviceIt’s a lifestyle

"I appeal to you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, to present your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and acceptable to God, which is your spiritual worship.“ – Romans 12:1

God answers prayer; there is power in prayer.“This is the confidence we have in approaching God:

Service Ministry42And Jesus called them to him and said to

them, "You know that those who are considered rulers of the Gentiles lord it

over them, and their great ones exercise authority over them. 43But it shall not be

so among you. But whoever would be great among you must be your servant, 44and whoever would be first among you must be slave of all. 45For even the Son of Man came not to be served but to serve,

and to give his life as a ransom for many.“

-Mark 10:42-45
