You will never be able to "hype" up the true presence, and moving of the Lord that changes hearts, lives and souls, and leaves a lasting impression.
That presence or "shekinah glory" of Jesus will only make itself truly known when heartfelt worship of the Almighty God takes place.
For God does not share His glory with another, especially human beings craving attention with spot lights, and strobe lights, and things done to hype up the emotion in the service.

I'm sure you are including in your examples of emotionalism a preacher screaming for people to worship, dance, run the aisle, etc., in your reference to hyping up the emotion? Also, the organ player and piano doing runs and trying to incite "praise breaks". Just to keep it real.
