Product Description
There have been many books written about how to be an effective leader of a worship-team, how to run a worship team, and even how to hear the voice of God, but no one seems to have broached the subject of how to follow the Holy Spirit during worship. While it is true that this should be a natural ability for any worship leader, (for "My Sheep hear My voice" - John 10:27), putting this process into words, is nonetheless a necessary endeavour to assist those who struggle in this area. Worship must be Spirit led. Jesus, speaking of the Holy Spirit, explains: "14 He will glorify me, for He will take what is mine and declare it to you." - John 16:14 ESVIt is the Holy Spirit who reveals God's glory to us, and thus, not only is there none better to lead us into perfect praise, but to follow Him should be a priority for every worship leader. Karen M Gray discusses in a well balanced and thorough manner, just what true Spirit Led Worship looks like, and goes further by calmly scrutinizing much of the negativity and controversy often attributed to modern worship. This is a "must read" for any worship leader.Description by Dr Mark VirklerSpirit Led Worship by Karen M. Gray is training that is much in demand in the church of Christ. I believe we all understand there is a difference between singing songs to God, and entering into His presence where we worship before His throne, and are touched and transformed by His presence. People come to church wanting to have an encounter with God. Will we offer them one? This heavenly encounter should be experienced in every part of the service. This includes the preaching, the worship, the body ministry and the release of the gifts of the Holy Spirit.Karen's book trains you how to effectively be a Spirit-led worshipper who can lead a congregation into the presence of God to be touched and healed by Him. This book is both practical and spiritual. Karen covers every aspect of Spirit-led worship from the pre-service prayer, to the what and why we are even singing. We are here to come before His throne and worship along with the heavenly hosts. John saw this heavenly host worshipping in Revelation chapter four. The nice thing about the Bible is that it is meant to be lived. If John can do this, so can we. Spirit-led worship will train you how to fix your eyes upon Jesus as you worship, sense the moving of His Spirit both individually and corporately, and move with His leading. Now church becomes fun, because it is a living encounter with the living God Read, learn, and practice the principles Karen shares and make your personal and corporate worship times encounters with your heavenly Father.Thank you, Karen, for this very unique, very special and much needed book on the "how to's" of Spirit Led Worship. May you as a reader of this book be led to participate in Spirit-led worship.Dr. Mark VirklerPresident of Communion With God MinistriesAuthor of 4 Keys to Hearing God's Voice
