Singing My Praises to God (4 of 5)
Series: Deep Waters
Pastor Frank Damazio
Intro: Going deeper into worship is easy when you are in love with Jesus and your heart is being pulled by Him. We are wading out into deeper waters and it is so exciting to see so many launching out. We are born to be worshippers and we are desirous to please God with our worship. We know now that lifting hands is a God-idea and singing our praise to God is a God-idea!

A. "GOING DEEPER" DEFINED
1. I will push past my personal hindrances and distractions and wade into the deep waters of God's presence with my praise, worship and an open heart of expectation.
