worship

This was on my heart this morning ...

There is a very obvious resurgence of what I call "Jesus movement" style of worship within the church. The Gen-X'ers and Millennials (under age 30) are simply not going to "do church" the way their forefathers did.

Not that they don't appreciate their history and lineage, but they are a majority "fatherless" generation. Doesn't mean they don't have an earthly 'Dad'; but in many cases their 'dad' has been absent from the emotional and spiritual places in their lives.

This generation is seeking more than a Sovereign Creator or Mystical Cosmic Warlord ... they want a 'dad'.

I believe that "Abba Father" is pouring out His Spirit -- of refreshing, of peace, of love and forgiveness -- on all flesh, as Scripture promised.

In response, this generation is willing to "come near" to that Father-figure like never before. If we - the Church - won't get in the way and blur the picture ... God will do something supernatural in our nation ... again!

Study the historical spiritual awakenings in America ... 1750s - 1900 ... see if you don't think God's up to the same type of stuff in the USA ... again! And, WORSHIP ... is at the center of it all.

It's not about the "how", but rather the "why". If we know "why" we worship Almighty God ... then, "how" we offer Him our praise, our adoration, and our service to fellow man will fall into place.
