Are There Any Worshippers in the House? (4 of 4)
Worship

John 4:19-24
In this day and time we live in, people do and respond to things based on popularity, perception, and emotion. Some people want to be popular, while others will only do things based on what they think or perceive what others may have to say about them. Some people will only do some things after they have consulted others and gotten their advice concerning the matter. Mind you, there's nothing wrong with being liked and popular, but not at the expense of your relationship with the Lord. The matter at hand right now is worship and we don't need to consult anybody but the Lord as it pertains to that!

If something special has taken place in your life, and you know that you know that only God could have brought you through that situation, that's a great time to praise God! You don't have to wait until you get to the church house to give Him that praise.

- Jehovah-Rapha: The Lord Our Healer;
- Jehovah-Nissi: The Lord Our Banner;
- Jehovah-Shalom: The Lord Our Peace;
- Jehovah-Rohi: The Lord Our Shepherd;
- Jehovah-Elyon: The Lord Most High!
When you know God to be these things in your life, your worship will have no problem coming out and you won't be c ...
