The Way We Worship

Praise is extolling the Lord for His mighty acts. Worship is adoring Him for Who He is! The Lord is seeking people who will worship Him in Spirit and in Truth. He has warned that true worship can only be worship in Spirit and in Truth. It is vital to maintain both Apostolic Doctrine and Apostolic Worship. The Holy Bible is our guide for spiritual worship.

We praise the Lord and pray aloud together!
(Acts 4:24; Luke 19:37; Psalm 126:2; Psalm 132:9.)

We lift our hands in honoring and praising the Lord!
( Psalm 134:2; Psalm 141:2; Lamentations 3:41; 1 Timothy 2:8.)

We enjoy clapping our hands while singing, and may use a variety of musical instruments!
( Psalm 47:1; Psalm 68:25; Psalm 98:4-6.)

We often share testimonies of how wonderful Jesus is to us!
(Psalm 26:6-7; Psalm 66:1; Psalm 107:1-2.)

We believe in anointing with oil and laying on of hands, for healing, to assist in receiving the Holy Spirit, and for blessing and consecration!
( James 5:14; Hebrews 6:1-2; Mark 16:18; Acts 19:6; 1 Timothy 4:14; 2 Timothy 1:6.)

We are grateful for the operation of the gifts of the Spirit, especially for anointed preaching and teaching of God’s Word!
( 1 Corinthians 12:11; Romans 10:17; 2 Timothy 3:15-16.)
