The reciprocation of this love between mankind and God is David’s set pattern of worship. By definition, the very core of Davidic Worship is the priestly flow of ministering to God from the heart. By God’s design, the priests were originally set in place for the purposes of ministering to Him; and it was the pattern of teaching His people how to worship. But David came along and found the key to touching the heart of God, and he turned it. What was once a pattern of duty was perfected in praise. David’s love and joy of worshiping moved the heart of God insomuch that God made an everlasting covenant with him and established this worship forever (1 Chronicles 17:10-14). Whereas, the first pattern God gave to Moses was a priestly function (a task) of ministry to God, the second is a priestly flow of love between God and man because their hearts are intertwined.

When you minister to people, it is necessary to focus only on the person to be effective; this is the natural course. Your ministry can only happen when you talk directly to them; so it is with God. Therefore, in your worship of ministering to God your focus is only on Him, who He is, and what He desires. The Godhead, or some may say the Trinity, is the central point in every thought, declaration, song, dance, or whatever to the One we love.
