As we gaze upon the wonders of creations, we look up towards the heights of a God who is merciful in His ways and magnificent in His deeds. The life of worship always points us upwards.

As we begin to face up to the holiness of God, our lives resound with that very same anthem, here and now upon the earth.

The revelation of God is the fuel for the fire of our worship

One of the most encouraging things is to see that so many of these young musicians and worship leaders are really concerned with doing a good job representing the truth of Jesus in their songs, and not just concerned with creative and musical progression.

I love to say that not only is the throne room of God a place of reverence, it's always a place of refuge. So when everything else in life seems to be shifting, or breaking and shaking apart, there's a place that is always stable, safe, and constant. When we draw near to God in worship, and approach His throne, we tap into that. It's a very re-assuring place, where we're reminded that there's a God on His throne, and even when we don't understand everything, we can trust it to Him.

We are to live in eager expectation of our heavenly inheritance.

Worship songs can't just be rooted in culture - they won't be deep enough. They have to be rooted in scripture.
