Above Him were seraphim, each with six wings: With two wings they covered their faces, with two they covered their feet, and with two they were lying. And they were calling to one another: “Holy, holy, holy is the Lord Almighty; the whole earth is full of his glory.” At the sound of their voices the doorposts and thresholds shook and the temple was filled with smoke. (Isaiah:6:2-4)
Isaiah has a vision of the angelic hosts worshiping the Lord on High. At the sound of their voices the doorposts and thresholds shook. If the angels could do such a fabulous job on worship, how much more we, the children of the Almighty GOD, whom we have the right to call Abba, Father! should be doing with our worship!! We cannot brush this aside, saying it's in heaven and it's the most holy place etc. The apostles experienced it as we read in Acts:4:31 "After this prayer, the meeting place shook, and they were all filled with the Holy Spirit. Then they preached the word of God with boldness." Not to forget the Israelities who won wars with worship and brought down the walls of Jericho.
Now, the question arises why aren't our worship such powerful as it should be? Jesus said in John:4:24 "God is spirit, and his worshipers must worship in the Spirit and in truth.” The seraphims worshiped by proclaiming the nature of GOD (Holy) that had been revealed to them. There was no going through the motions but they worshiped in truth. We should worship by confessing what we have seen in GOD.
For example, we read in John:4:17-19 "Jesus said to her, “You are right when you say you have no husband. The fact is, you have had five husbands, and the man you now have is not your husband. What you have just said is quite true.” “Sir,” the woman said, “I can see that you are a prophet." The Samaritan woman has a revelation just by having an interaction with Jesus. She was truthful to Jesus which resulted in her getting a revelation that Jesus is a prophet. When we interact with Him by spending time in the Word and His presence, GOD reveals His nature and we should use those revelations when we worship. You can't sing "Jehovah Jireh, My provider" wholeheartedly and truthfully unless you have experienced and acknowledged GOD's provision in your life. Worship cannot be taught. It should be spontaneous and it becomes truthful only when we have a day to day relationship with GOD.
Blessings!
