Every seven days we as worship leaders and worshipping prayer warriors get to see the gathering of all of God's people - young people, older people, saints, seekers, and worshippers. There would be some who come for fellowship and maybe others who walk through the doors with heavy burdens too deep to share. They come hoping that something in the worship will help them or minister to them. Many of them don't know that all they need is Him!
Every Sunday holds the potential of its being someone's big day in their spiritual journey. It may be music, prayer time, or sermon that God uses to speak to them. Our worship both as worship leaders and in the pews is sometimes used to draw others into an experience with Him. We must never take that lightly. We need to prepare and pray that God the Spirit will be loosed in their lives and accomplish His will.
I dare you to pray for those un-named persons who will need a touch from God this Lord's Day as you gather to worship. Many times we get to see God work His work and His miracles in the lives of those who come. We should look forward to it, anticipate it, expect it when we gather every seven days. What a blessing to be a part, through worship leading or praying, so that others can also experience Him.
By the way, are you experiencing Him in both your personal-private worship and in the gathering of God's people every seven days? If you are not, it would be difficult to help others and pray for others. Our own personal devotional, worship life must be kept humming if we want to be a blessing to others. mjm
