Forced Worship

[LadyChocolate]

I've seen it many times when people are told to run, jump, roll, go crazy........... but how many times do you see preachers telling people to "cry, cry cry" ........... no, it doesn't happen.... People get addicted to "high"' church and think that unless it's crazy then God hasn't moved......... and all the while God is waiting for us to get our ideas out of the way for Him to move!

Right up there with holy laughter, which I have only seen a few times, and being slain in the spirit -once the first person goes, then it becomes fashionable to follow suit.

yep. I've seen it all my life...... I have also seen and been in the real presence of God! I've jumped... I've lept... I've ran.... IMO, that is my praise to Him.... but when I worship the Lord, I am in awe of Him. I want to hide my face because then I feel like I have His attention and I know who I really am... I am not worthy to feel Him, but His love for me made me worthy. When I worship the Lord, I usually find a place away from every one else... There is a difference between Praise and Worship!
