Inspiration in Our Worship
ОглавлениеThe Holy Spirit is the inspiration that causes our hands to move with passion as we play our instruments. He is the One that will sing through our vocal chords and cause us to sing notes that we could not have done without Him. And amazingly, He is the One who embodies us, so that as we dance or run, we may even feel like our feet aren’t touching the floor (which is called hind’s feet). At times we may leap or wave a banner or a flag, yet we never get tired and many times not even feel sore the next day. There may be times that as we begin to write that He slips His hand into ours and gives us the words to put on paper. Thus, there are many ways that the Holy Spirit will manifest in the Davidic Worship meetings.
The Holy Ghost wants to move among us. He purposely comes to manifest all the good things of God to us. Therefore, as we go before God to please Him and to minister to Him, we will see a variety of ways that the Holy Spirit will manifest Himself. We will see a mixture of any combination He desires, and they will be in no certain order. This means that we cannot plan what He wants to do in us, in the house, or beyond. He moves in whatever way He chooses that pleases Him, and our part is to yield to His desires. He knows what we need and He has come to supply it and to fellowship with us.
He will manifest in His power, authority, glory, or holiness in our worship and beyond. When He manifests His power, He may choose only one person and they will feel His power surging through them, or He may choose to charge the atmosphere and everyone feels His presence. He may manifest His authority to announce the arrival of the King through one of His prophets, watchmen, or whoever. He may choose to speak a prophetic word or declare the written Word of God in bold, loud, or sudden bursts; or He may simply bring holy laughter.
In addition, we may see the manifested presence of the Shekinah glory of God move in like a cloud of smoke. When this happens, we often see healings and miracles among the people, but no one is praying for them. It is common to see people on their faces when this glory cloud moves in. In addition, the manifested holiness of God may begin to visit us. This is one of those areas that we have not experienced much in our midst. In the manifested holiness of God, the quiet, sobering moment happens when no one wants to speak, move, or hardly breathe.
There are so many other manifestations of the Holy Ghost and we could not name them all, but His manifestation comes as a result of a heart to worship and please God. Please be aware that the Holy Ghost is very sensitive and feels what we feel; consequently, we can grieve Him. Welcome the Holy Spirit into your worship and you will experience a manifested glory of God that you have never seen before.
