Worship Music in the 21st Century.
The word worship simply means to honour,adore,respect render devotion to someone and especially to God.We were all created to be worshippers of God. As I said in a previous blog it should be our lifestyle not just for church services or small groups ect. Man longs to worship, many people worship soccer teams,football teams, pop stars, rock stars, film stars and should I say preachers. These people are placed with the highest esteem in the modern world. As I said we were all created to worship so this is in all of our DNA. But what about worship music in toady's society?
I believe today we have many varieties of worship music, many styles of music which can be used in worship, God created this powerful expression called music. Through out the Bible music and musical instruments are mentioned Psalm 150 is a classic example.
In the Tabernacle of David (1 Chronicles 23 v 5; 25v 1-7) King David ordained musicians with variety of instruments to play and sing before the Lord. In the book Acts it talks about the rebuilding of the Tabernacle of David which I will explain in another blog, but let me say this I believe the Church is the Tabernacle rebuilt today. So as I said today there are a vast array of musical styles, music is just one expression of worship but a very powerful one. So I believe we can worship God whatever the style of music, from traditional hymns, pop, country, rock, heavy metal, classical and dance, whatever the style if it glorifies God and is an expression from a true heart it is Worship.
