The Blog

Welcome to the first Worship Wednesday Blog Post! 

This series will be an invitation to take 15-20 minutes out of your day to simply come before the LORD in authentic and simple worship and praise. 

You can expect for me to share a song that has been ministering to my soul, along with Bible verses to support the message of the song, and a few encouraging words. 

So clear off your schedule for the next 20 minutes, put aside any fears or worries, and step into the Presence of God with me. 

Worship Wednesdays #1 - Wait on the Lord

There are many scriptures that remind us and encourage us to wait on the perfect timing of the LORD. We often want answers to our prayers, as my father would say, "in a microwave-minute." 

But God is too kind and cares too much about you to give you something that won't be beneficial to you in the long-run or give you something that you are not ready to receive. 

Let this be your reminder that God is never too early or too late....

JOIN THE WORSHIP RALLY

Now, more than ever, we need to come together as a church to invite God to pour out His Holy Spirit among His people.

The Soul of Worship Ministry is so passionate about using worship and praise as a mighty spiritual weapon of warfare and has been for the last several years.

It is now becoming very clear why God has been putting this urgency in our hearts.

We need to take our positions as true worshipers of the Father so that we can be in tune with the sound of Heaven.

So that we can bring love, peace, and unity to our communities. So that we can see the revival and fresh outpouring of the presence and power of God that we are longing to experience.

Be a part of this worship and praise movement.

DATE, TIME, LOCATION WILL BE FINALIZED IN THE COMING DAYS.

Our homes, towns, cities, states, countries, and the whole world needs a revival of God's presence. We know that according to scripture, God inhabits the praises of His people.

If we want a move of God, we...

I've been holding a secret in for the last 3 months.

Back in February, I signed a publishing agreement with TBN / Trilogy Christian Publishing, Inc! Yes, TBN - the world's largest Christian television network.

(Okay, some of you knew about it, but I've been pretty quiet otherwise!)

Since then, I've been praying and editing the WORSHIP: Are You Making a Sound? 12 Week Bible study so that I can have it officially published through TBN.

Once the new book is ready, which is SO SOON, the Worship study book will be available WHEREVER BOOKS ARE SOLD. So Amazon, B&N, everywhere.

Plus, I'm super excited that we'll also be filming a 30 second commercial that will air on the Hillsong Channel!

TO GOD BE ALL THE GLORY!

Especially in this season, I know that God has prepared me and this book to empower a generation to powerfully worship and praise God.

We will overcome fear and anxiety when we choose to focus on keeping our hearts worshipful.

We will defeat giants and enemies when we learn...

Earlier this week, as we wrapped up The Power of the Tongue Online Bible Study series, I said that the next online Bible study wouldn't begin until Monday, April 6th and that we would take next week off.

Well, the LORD has nudged my heart to start the next study early. Times are too critical and this message must be heard.

God wants to remind us that HE IS THE GOD OF HOPE and we do not have to be desperate in these times of great trial.

We have a blessed assurance that God will continue to keep His promises over us.

Next Online Study Begins THIS MONDAY, March 30th!

We will have our Zoom LIVE Bible Study on Monday night at 8pm ET to begin our next study called "Steadfast Hope - Our Unbreakable Spiritual Lifeline."

I want to make it easier this time around.
1. The Zoom Conference Line info for the LIVE discussion will remain the same as The Power of the Tongue study. If you already have it, you can join!

2. If you were previously registered for the March online Bible study, you will...

In light of all that is happening in the world today as it relates to COVID-19, it can be so easy to fall into the cycle of fear and anxiety of the unknown.

Watch the Video 

Yet, God does not want us to live in the shackles of fear. God is still bigger and greater than any disease or sickness and we can still rely on His goodness and power. God has not stopped being God. We must take every negative thought captive and submit it to the obedience of Christ, as the Word says we have the power to do in 2 Corinthians 10:5.

It is our human nature to worry. When we surround ourselves with hour after hour of the media telling us why we should fear, we will only breed more fear in ourselves and in our families.

We do not have to live like this. God wants us to live in the freedom of the peace that He offers. There are so many scriptures we can pray over fear and anxiety but I want to share with you 10 Bible Verses you can pray right now over your own fear and over your family. Share...

Welcome to Two-Minute Truths, where in 2 minutes or less, we remind ourselves of a powerful biblical truth so that we can live our days empowered by the Word of God!

In this episode, I want to remind you that your worship is your spiritual warfare against any and every situation that may be coming against you.

I love the epic battle depicted in 2 Chronicles 20, the last battle under King Jehoshaphat's reign. There's so much to learn from this battle, but one of my favorites is that even though they prepared themselves to fight against the great army coming against Jehoshaphat, the people DID NOT have to physically fight in this battle.

The king sent out a group of worshippers in front of the army and they sang, "Praise the LORD, for His mercy endures forever!"

And when they began to sing, the LORD sent ambushes against the enemy and they were defeated!

It is easy to allow our life challenges to completely overwhelm us and paralyze us with fear and anxiety. However, the answer is...

Welcome to Two-Minute Truths, where in 2 minutes or less, we remind ourselves of a powerful biblical truth so that we can live our days empowered by the Word of God!

Have you ever felt so tired from your daily challenges, or hurting from a tough season of life that it feels almost impossible to still be joyful and thank God?

I challenge you today to embrace the concept that sometimes our praise is a sacrifice. It is not always going to be easy or even feel good to offer God our praises, but it is crucial in order to receive deliverance from the weight of life's troubles.

Psalm 116:17 says, “I will offer to You the sacrifice of thanksgiving, And will call upon the name of the LORD.”

Sometimes our worship will feel like a sacrifice because our attitudes are not always right and things may not be going the way we like or expected. But when we begin to offer God the sacrifice of thanksgiving, we quickly begin to realize that our thanksgiving gives us a fresh, new...

Welcome to Two-Minute Truths, where in 2 minutes or less, we remind ourselves of a powerful biblical truth so that we can live our days empowered by the Word of God!

Have you ever read the story of Moses in Exodus Chapter 17 about how Israel prevailed in the war against the Amalekites? Verse 11 says, “and so it was when Moses held up his hand that Israel prevailed; and when he let down his hand, Amalek prevailed.”

Victory over the Amelikes only occurred when Moses had his hands raised high in worship. Whenever Moses let his hand down, Amalek would prevail.

Let that sink in for a minute.

Similarly, our worship can be the deciding factor on whether or not we obtain the victory over our daily battles. When we choose to honor God and praise Him despite our circumstances, we win. On the contrary, when we choose to doubt, complain, or get angry with God when things are not going our way, it is the equivalent of bringing down our worshipful hands, giving up, and letting the...

Welcome to Two-Minute Truths, where in 2 minutes or less, we remind ourselves of a powerful biblical truth so that we can live our days empowered by the Word of God!

Today I am going to share with you one of my favorite truths about worship. Isaiah 58:1 says, “Cry aloud, spare not; Lift up your voice like a trumpet.”

In our daily lives we need to proclaim God’s truths and praise His name with confidence, like a trumpet sound of victory, truly believing that He is able to help us through any battle or season of life.

There are testimonies in the Old Testament of battles that were won when the trumpet sound was used as God called them to be used. We, too, have access to this power!

So today, I encourage you to use your voice like a trumpet sound and confidently remind the enemy of the God that we serve - the Almighty, the All Powerful God and that there is nothing impossible for Him!

To study more scriptures about how to use your voice as a trumpet sound and other...
