Where No Man Has Gone Before
The process was not a quick fix. I did not all the sudden become a great worshiper and worship leader. I still am lacking in my ability to lead out like I want to. I still desire to help others go further in their personal times with the Lord, as well as in our corporate worship together. Patience is the key. Just as I cannot become a great man of God overnight, becoming a worshiper and worship leader takes time. The Lord leads me where He wants me to go, and I strive to not get out of His will even when it pertains to my worship. I try to keep things biblical and meaningful to Him.
Where are you taking your people? Where are you as a worshiper in your church? Is your worship leader growing? Is he challenging you to move forward in your relationship with the Lord? If you are a worship leader, then I pray that the Lord will continue to grow you into the leader He has called you to be. If you are a worshiper in a church or a part of a worship team, I encourage you to grow in your own worship experiences. If your worship leader has become stagnant in his leadership, pray for him. We all need encouragement and prayer. We are all in the same cause to be more Christ-like with each new step we take. Seek His face with all your heart, soul and mind. Meditate on His word daily, and become consumed with knowing Him and being in His presence. Get council from your peers and other men and women who are awesome worshipers. Do whatever it takes to help your people!
Boldly go where no man has gone before. Even David, in all his attempts to become an awesome worshiper of God, didn't go as far as he could have. Who will lead them? If you are a worship leader, God has called you to lead. If you are in leadership in a worship ministry, God has called you to lead. If you are a worshiper who truly values worship in the life of believers, then we need you! It takes many to do the work of the Lord. Worship has been neglected in the church for far too long. Seek Him in worship. Go where you haven't been before in your private worship, then you will be able to help others go where they have never gone before. There is no final frontier in our relationship and worship with the Lord.

Very well stated Brother Newman. I recently have challenged myself as the Lead Worshipper in my church to get in God's face more than I have. I told my team that I have been praying, fasting and searching the scriptures more than I used to. I'm alway...more
