Hello.
Here are very insightful and inspirational quotes, from a teaching on worship, by Dr. Myles Munroe.
Here we go!
“There’s nothing more tragic in life than abusing time and energy, and wasting resources. To waste your time on the wrong thing, doing the wrong thing.”
“There’s nothing more dangerous than making the means the end.”
“You can become so preoccupied with what you are doing that you forget why you are doing it.”
“You can actually worship what you’re doing, rather than using what you’re doing to worship God.”
“The greatest challenge the Creator has with us, humans, is our preoccupation with the end over the means.”
“Worship is the most important thing when we come together.”
“Teaching is not as important as worship.”
“The presence of God doesn’t come because of habit, He comes because of passion.”
“His (God) presence is more important than anybody’s presence.”
“The largest worship book in the Bible was written by a great king.”
“The opposite of worship is idolatry.”
“Jealousy is reaction to competition. God says he doesn’t want anything to compete with Him (for your attention). He is God alone, nothing else.”
“Whenever God calls us (people) together, it’s to worship, so He can show up, so He can hear petitions, so He can give you justice; what is rightfully yours.”
“When we worship, God moves. He breaks prison walls and chains.”
“Worship is the greatest key to your freedom.”
“Worship protects your children’s children.” (God will protect your children’s children because you worship Him).
“If you hinder worship, you attract plagues.” (As it happened to the Egyptians because Pharaoh wouldn’t let the children of Israel go and worship God).
“Worship is understanding that everything you are using ain’t yours (they’re God’s). The breath you breathe ain’t yours. So every time you breathe out, it should be “thank You”. Worship comes from that acknowledgement; “everything is His.” (The life you have, the air you breathe, the raw materials for clothes, shoes, etc.).
“His love for us deserves worship all the time.”
“When more worth is placed on the means than the end, then the means becomes an idol. When you make what you’re doing more important than who you’re doing it for, you created an idol.”
“God doesn’t want to compete with the song you’re singing to Him. God doesn’t want the music to be more important than Him.” (King Saul made the sacrifice more important than God)
“Never make the sacrifice (the songs, the dance, the money, the offerings) more important than the one (God) you’re sacrificing to. That’s why king Saul lost his kingship.”
“Any other worship than God is idolatry. God detests idolatry.”
“You have to make sure you keep yourself from idols.” (1Jn. 5:21)
“When the creation becomes more important than the Creator, the result is misplaced worship, and the creation of idolatry. Anything you put before God is an idol.”
“Your attitude can destroy your worship.”
“Worship must be as a result of whatever He asks for, including yourself.”
“The Creator has the right to ask for anything He wants in worship because He owns everything.”
