Worship!!

What's in my IPOD and why. That is the substance of this post. Worship is so special to me, and music holds such a dear place in my heart that I listen to worship all the time. I decided to share what I'm listening to and why because I want to encourage you to be an all the time worshipper too!
Play list titled My Worship
1. Love The Lord- Lincoln Brewster
This song is scripture, and nothing but the first and greatest commandment. We can never be reminded enough of what we are asked by God to fulfill. And, it's a great tune!
2. Awesome Is The Lord Most High- Chris Tomlin
To me, this song is declaring who God is and I can always use songs like this. When I become overwhelmed with life, I choose to focus on God, and how awesome He is.
3. Holy Is The Lord- Chris Tomlin
This is a song which reminds me of what we will be doing in heaven. Revelation chapter 4, 5 talk about what is happening in heaven, and songs declaring God's holiness never cease to remind me of how we will soon be worshipping around the Throne of God.
4. You, You are God- Gateway Worship
Another declaration song which I love. Songs where I can state my intent and beliefs are good for me because life has a way of trying to get me muddled and lost. This song states it clearly- You are God!!!!! And it's a mighty great tune too!
5. Let The Praises Ring- Lincoln Brewster
By now I will admit that I truly enjoy Lincoln Brewster. I've heard his name for many years, back to my days of driving to Calvary Temple Modesto for Friday night worship nights. I feel a true sense of worship, not just performance with him, and I love the lyrics to this song. "Let every thing I say and do be founded by my faith in You!"
6. Everlasting God- Lincoln Brewster
This song gives me hope, and reminds me that God is not a man that he should become tired and not be able to help me. The verses this song is based one are ones that I love! I love songs that are scripture.
7. Beautiful King- Michael Neale
This is an artist I found by seeing what's new on Itunes. I love, love, love his album. This song really states my heart toward God right now. "All I can say is thank you, all I can do is fall down at your feet, all I can cry is Holy, Holy Holy is the Beautiful King." I encourage you to check out his CD which is full of powerful truth.
8. I Am Yours- Michael Neale
This is a rendition of "Take My Life and Let it Be". The words are powerful, and the chorus states it all, I am Yours set apart for You.
9. Beautiful- New Life Worship
I love this song because it is stating who God is, directly to Him. Just try being angry, or irritated or anything else while singing this song. It gets you back to the right perspective quickly.
10. Magnificent- Hillsong
The album "Blessed" by Hillsong is probably my favorite worship CD. I've listened to it a multitude of times. Magnificent is another love song to God, and that is why I love it. What a great song!
11. There Is None Like You- Lenny LeBlanc
This is a short, simple song which states the truth. There is none like the One True God of Israel. As with many of the others, a real perspective song.
12. I Stand In Awe- Ross Parsley
I have been a fan of New Life Worship for many years, and although their church has been through a lot in the last year, I don't think God is finished with them yet. This song states my feelings quite well.
13. Amazed- Ross Parsley
This song is so great. I was singing this to myself yesterday at church during communion. I am amazed by how God loves me. This song is a reminder to me, and an offering to God.
14. Beauty of the Lord- Jared Anderson
Another New Life worship leader, this song states the intent of my heart. "I will declare the beauty of the Lord, nothing compares to the beauty of the Lord." Enough said by me.
15. Holy God- Brian Doerkson
I came across this song on Itunes. When I play this song, I feel like I am in the throne room of heaven. The angelic voices raised, singing "Holy, Holy Holy God" gives me the chills. The statements of Who God is increases my faith. I highly recommend his album for a great personal worship CD.

So, there's a look into my IPOD. Sometimes we can get stuck in a rut, or lose the habit of personal worship. Don't wait for Sunday! Start worshipping with song now! Music has a way of lifting the heaviness, resetting our perspective and cheering our souls.
