Worship isn't music. Music is a tool that helps us access intimate conversation with God. I've heard other Christians say that they worship other ways, and that's cool, but I wonder if they are still accessing that intimate conversation. Many believers stop with just salvation and the Cross, and constantly revisit that place of conversion, sin and sacrifice. We are always supposed to keep the Cross before us, but there is more to being His Sons and Daughters than self-flagellation. Paul infers that there is more beyond this in Hebrews 6; 1Therefore leaving the elementary teaching about the Christ, let us press on to maturity, not laying again a foundation of repentance from dead works and of faith toward God, 2 of instructionabout washings and laying on of hands, and the resurrection of the dead and eternal judgment.
I think one of the earmarks of maturity as a believer is intimacy with Him. We are supposed to be the Bride, right? Intimacy is just being able to see deeply into the heart of the other. Jesus desires access to our hearts, and it excites Him when we want Him as passionately. I love how Stephany Frizzell talks about worship in this clip;
