What Manifest Divine Presence, Spiritual Atmosphere do you carry when you walk into the Room, a Service, a Meeting, your Home, your Workplace ?

Manifest Presence coming into the Room with worship leaders, Ministers

"WORSHIP LEADING

The reality is, every person who stands to lead worship carries their own, very personal spiritual atmosphere. That atmosphere is either full of God, or it carries negative energy, or is just...plain and empty...carrying nothing and accomplishing nothing.

In other words, one worship leader can stand on the altar, and the cloud of God's glory walks into the room together with them. It happens even with some preachers. It's almost like when they walk God's manifest presence walks into the room with them. You can feel it quite literally.

So imagine a situation where a worship session is being led by different worship leaders in turns...which is what happens in most congregations. Imagine now, that the first person who leads the worship moment is very much in tune with the Lord. They walk to the altar buoyed along by the cloud of the Lord and become portals for the manifest presence to fill the room as they minister.

But then, after a while, just when the cloud is thickening in the room so to speak, they stop and hand over the microphone to another worship leader who is totally off either in that moment or just generally not in tune with the Lord.

It is very frustrating, especially for spiritually sensitive people. Because they stand in the service, watching that cloud lift from the room. The person who has taken the microphone has come in with his or her atmosphere.

If they are not in tune with the Lord, they may try to ride on the wave the previous worship leader was operating on, but they can't sustain it. So they fall back to their default, and you feel or watch the cloud of God's glory lift and lift and lift until the whole room is back to square one.

Very frustrating.

I've seen it over and over, in many different places and meetings.

Worship teams must come to a place where they can seek and engage with God together, in very deep ways, away from the services...so that when they minister together in a service, they are on the same spiritual wavelength and there is no dissonance in the spirit.

It's not enough to practice to enhance vocal skills, since this is fundamental. Even more important, is coming to a place where you are in tune with the Holy Spirit, as a team.

That said, it is the personal responsibility of every worship leader to pursue personal consecration and intimacy with the Lord, for oneself, and for the sake of the congregation to which he or she ministers.

Always remind yourself, that you owe them divine encounters whenever you minister to them. Let that cause you to continually cry out to God for deeper consecration and intimacy. May God help us."

This Christmas while listening to Handel's Messiah, the Holy Spirit showed me the Scriptures that were being sung are in a sequence that prophetically speaks to us of things now and things coming.

GROWING IN THE PROPHETIC

Even more important than growing in your gift and in the grace of prophecy is the need for you to go deeper in your intimacy with the LORD. You see, it is possible to be a prophet with 💯 precision and still miss God but you cannot be intimate with God in your friendship with Him and not enjoy His graces, including the prophetic, if that's where your role is in the Body of Christ. When you engage with God for friendship, for relationship, and for intimacy, your agenda is just to bond with Him. You are not looking for information or a revelation. You are not even trying to grow spiritually or in a gift. You're hanging out with Him as a person hangs out with a dear friend. You want to know Him, draw closer to Him. You are here, in His Presence, because you are hungry for Him, thirsty for Him, you long for Him, hunger for Him and want nothing more than to be lost in Him. That's why you pray. That's why you spend time in the Word. That's why you join other believers in fellowship. Because you understand that's what it's all about. It's about Jesus. It's about being in an intimate relationship with Him and drawing others into it. When this is your heart in spiritual pursuit, not only will you flow effortlessly in the grace of God, but also, it will be PURE.
