So how is your worship preparation going for Sunday? Our conversation on passionate worship raised the correlation between our personal spiritual preparation and experience of meaningful worship. Prayer life, scripture study, Christian fellowship are ways we enter into the presence of the Lord before worship. If those are part of what we carry into worship, then doesn’t it make sense we will be more sensitive and ready to the movement of the Spirit during worship?
As you get ready for worship this Sunday, let me share something with you. I asked three members of the church to share their stories with the congregation. Tonight, we met to talk about what they felt God was laying on their hearts to share. I can honestly tell you I was blessed and humbled as I listened to them. It is going to be an amazing Sunday you will not want to miss.
We are also sharing the sacrament of Holy Communion Sunday. This is World Wide Communion Sunday, a day when the global church comes together at the table of the Lord. I hope you are prayerfully considering what to bring with you to the table and what to leave there with the Lord. Think about the image of the global church making space for you at the table where the grace of Christ is given through his body and blood. Prepare to worship. Come to be blessed and to receive God’s grace.
That is a recipe for passionate worship. Don’t miss out.
