The Unquenchable Worshipper issues a passionate call for a return to an unadulterated, first-love lifestyle of worship. In his first book release, respected worship leader and songwriter Matt Redman writes: "The revelation of God is the fuel for the fire of our worship. And there is always more fuel for the fire. When we open the eyes of our heart, God’s revelation comes flying at us from so many different angles." Open the eyes of your heart and let the gut-level message of The Unquenchable Worshipper cause you, like martyred missionary Jim Elliot, to say, "Saturate me with the oil of Thy Spirit, that I may be aflame. Make me Thy fuel O flame of God." It’s time to dive into the heart of worship—will you take the plunge? This is a short book written in 2001 by a well-known contemporary Christian song-writer and worship leader. It has just ten chapters, none of them more than ten pages long, looking at different aspects of worship and what is meant by the word. Matt Redman shares from his heart, recounting some of the struggles he has experienced and also the changes he has seen in his life, despite always feeling that he has a long way to go. He also looks briefly at some Biblical examples of worship, which include singing sometimes, but also a variety of other expressions. Nothing particularly new, but quite encouraging and inspiring, in a low-key kind of way. In 1 Kings 17:15, we are told that the Israelite people “worshiped worthless idols and became worthless themselves”. What a sobering thought: we become like that which we worship. This means that spending time worshipping God is not only desirable, it is essential to our spiritual transformation. But what exactly is worship? What does it look like? And where do we begin? In "The Unquenchable Worshipper", Matt Redman attempts to answer these questions by exploring the characteristics of worshippers whose passion for God could not be quenched. From David, who danced before the Lord with abandon, to Isaiah, who fell face down in humility and awe, to Job, who chose to praise God despite his circumstances and pain, Redman shows us that worship is more than a song, more than a feeling – it is an acknowledgment of who God is. The more we focus on God, the more we will worship – and the more we will become who God desires us to be. geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe
