This Episode Show Notes
Episode 41 Holy Expectancy
“One reason worship should be considered a Spiritual Discipline is because it is an ordered way of acting and living that sets us before God so he can transform us.” (Foster, p.166)
Yes we are dependant on God’s touch, but we can takes steps to open up to Him. (farmer analogy)
“Activity is the enemy of adoration.” (Foster, p.161)
Referencing Jesus’ assessment of greatest commandments: “The divine priority is worship first, service second.”
Frank Laubach constant conversation with God and Holy expectancy (Foster, p.162-163)
Challenge: Arrive to worship service room 10 minutes earlier than normal. Perhaps go to the balcony. Pray, lifting first your heart to Jesus and praising him. Pray for leaders of service. Pray for people entering room.
Could go further, getting extra sleep Saturday night, reading over song lyrics beforehand, going for a walk before entering church.
