Today, I was the lead worshiper at my church. Now I have to tell you…I am a background kind of person when it comes to church. At least that is what I believe. I will work all day if I need to doing any job you need me to do…outside of the pulpit.

The thing is, that is not what God has called me to. 

He keeps pushing me to shake that spirit of fear, and move in whatever direction He tells me. I have delivered the word many times, but there is always a special anointing that God gives us when it comes to preaching. I think it’s because we know it’s not us who is speaking…it’s the Spirit of the Lord speaking through us.

When you are leading worship, people have certain expectations, and the louder you are, the better. 

I don’t know if that’s true, I just know that is what I like when I am sitting in the congregation. I like it when the worshiper brings the fire. I like it when the air is charged with anticipation for what is about to come. I know it is not about that, and it’s not about us. That it is all about God. And God uses us just the way we are. I understand that.

I just want to be able to project on the outside…what I am feeling on the inside.

I just believe that we serve a prayer answering God, and I believe the next time I am called to that assignment, God is going to give me exactly what I have been praying for. I will allow His Spirit to take control, and it won’t be me praising, but it will be the Holy Spirit praising through me.

Until next time…

Be blessed
