Plundering the Enemy’s Camp: Why Every Battle Produces Spoils

By Soul of Worship Ministry

Here is a biblical reality we must recover: God does not lead His people into battle to come out empty-handed. Every war in Scripture carries spoils. Worshipers don’t merely survive, but by the grace of God, they plunder.

“So Jehoshaphat and his people came to take away their spoil… and they were three days gathering the spoil, it was so much.” — 2 Chronicles 20:25

When Judah lifted a sound of praise (2 Chr 20), the LORD Himself set ambushes. When Israel departed Egypt, they did not slip out poor, they plundered Egypt (Ex 12:35–36). When David stood amid the ashes of Ziklag, the word of the LORD was, “Pursue…you shall surely overtake… and without fail recover all” (1 Sam 30:8) and he did.

Beloved, battles are not only about endurance; they are about inheritance. The enemy’s atta

Worship in the Wilderness: Lessons from Jeremiah 17

Worship in the Wilderness: Lessons from Jeremiah 17

Have you ever walked through a season where your faith felt tested? Where anxiety, drought, or even God’s discipline seemed closer than His blessing? Jeremiah 17 gives us powerful truths about worship in those moments. Let’s dig in together.

Where Is Your Trust Planted?

Jeremiah 17 paints two pictures:

“Cursed is the man who trusts in man and makes flesh his strength… Blessed is the man who trusts in the LORD… For he shall be like a tree planted by the waters.” (Jer. 17:5–8)

Worship is spiritual warfare because it reveals where our allegiance really is. Do we trust in people, wealth, our own strength — or in God alone? The battle is for our trust. And in worship, we plant ourselves by the living water, even in times of drought.

Worship Application: Ask yourself this week: “Where is my trust planted?” Spend time singing songs that declare His faithfulness (like Cornerstone or Great Is Thy Faithfulness), and let those words

Redeeming September: How God Turned My Mourning Into Dancing

Redeeming September: How God Turned My Mourning Into Dancing 🌈✨

Worship Wednesday • A testimony of grief to glory

This week is extra special for me…my little miracle baby turns ONE. 🕊️💕

Her name is Elena Joy — “Shining Light, Delight.” She’s our double rainbow baby, born after two back-to-back miscarriages in September.

From Waiting & Loss to Worship

For two Septembers in a row, I carried a grief deeper than words. Month after month of waiting, then two losses that broke my heart. I struggled to understand. Wasn’t this God’s will? Why would He speak a promise and then allow it to feel delayed?

I’ll be honest — one day I couldn’t even sing. The worship songs I normally leaned on felt heavy. Until a song about God’s holiness came on.

That’s when it clicked: my circumstances weren’t good, but my God was still holy. And right there, His presence rushed in. My song shifted. Worship pulled me back into alignment with His character, not my pain.

Sing a New Song: How Your Testimony Unlocks Authentic Worship

Sing a New Song: Worship that Flows from Your Testimony

When God brings you through a battle, He doesn’t just rescue you—
He puts a new song in your mouth. 🎶

Psalm 40:3: "He has put a new song in my mouth—Praise to our God; Many will see it and fear, and will trust in the Lord."

This isn’t just poetry. It’s a spiritual blueprint for authentic worship.


🕊 The Sound of Deliverance

When David sang about his "new song," he wasn’t talking about a catchy melody. He was singing out of his experience—out of the pit he had been pulled from.

His new song wasn’t manufactured.
It was birthed through deliverance, freedom, and victory.

Every battle you survive becomes a fresh sound in Heaven.
Every breakthrough you experience is another verse in your personal anthem of praise.

This is what the Bible calls Tehillah—a spontaneous, unrehearsed, authentic song of praise flowing from your relationship with God.


🎶 Why You Must Sing YOUR Song

Here’s the truth:
Nobody else can sing the song God...

Why Lifting Your Hands in Worship Is Spiritual Warfare

Why Lifting Your Hands in Worship Is Spiritual Warfare

“Lift up your hands in the sanctuary, and bless the Lord.” — Psalm 134:2

Have you ever been in a worship service where you wanted to lift your hands… but something held you back?

Maybe it was fear. Insecurity. Or just not understanding why it even mattered.

But, can I tell you something?

There is supernatural power in the simple act of lifting your hands to God.


Your Hands Are a Weapon

In Exodus 17, Moses stood on a hill as the Israelites fought the Amalekites. And scripture says that as long as his hands were raised, Israel was winning.

But when his hands dropped… the enemy started to win.

Your worship posture is connected to your spiritual victory.

Lifting your hands—what the Bible calls “Yadah” praise—isn’t just symbolic. It’s strategic.

It’s surrender, yes. But it’s also warfare.

When you raise your hands, you’re declaring:

  • I trust You, Lord.
  • This battle is Yours.
  • I am choosing praise instead of fear.

Your...

4 Powerful Prayers for Embracing Simplicity in a Distracted World

4 Powerful Prayers for Embracing Simplicity in a Distracted World

In a world constantly shouting do more, be more, buy more, our souls are aching for less. But not just less noise—they’re craving more of Jesus. The spiritual discipline of simplicity is about living with an undivided heart, choosing what matters most, and surrendering the distractions that pull us away from God’s presence.

If you’ve felt overwhelmed, spiritually cluttered, or disconnected, these 4 prayer points will help you realign with the peace and purpose found only in Christ.


1. Lord, give me an undivided heart.

“Teach me your way, O Lord, that I may walk in your truth; unite my heart to fear your name.” — Psalm 86:11

The root of spiritual simplicity is singular focus. When our hearts are divided—half for God, half for everything else—our worship suffers. Pray for a heart that chases only Him.

Prayer:
Father, I confess that my heart has been distracted and divided. I’ve been pulled in so many directions, and...

The new Daily Devotions with Soul of Worship Ministry Facebook Group!

For quite some time now, the LORD has been nudging me to start some type of "Daily Devotions" but I have to admit that I was afraid of the daily commitment. After all, I'm a wife, homeschooling mom of 2 and now a puppy mom. Not to mention all of the ministerial responsibilities I hold at our local church.

"Teach them how to worship," I'd hear the Holy Spirit say.

"LORD, I already do a weekly Bible study on worship and work daily on supporting the Soul of Worship Ministry. What else do you want me to do?"

"Show up daily."

After much prayer, and wrestling with the LORD, I feel like I've gotten the download on how to start this Daily Devotions initiative.

In full transparency, I was originally looking at building a networking area within my website. BUT, it was too complicated and I think I was overthinking it. After spending all this time building something new, will people login daily to my website?...
