Developing Prothetic Worship Culture

Speaker: Dan McCollam
Title: Developing Prothetic Worship Culture

John 4

Worship revival came down when the object of our Worship (Jesus) Came to earth.
We have to worship in spirit and in truth.

Worship culture is not only meant for the Church, but it is also for the people outside the church.

If we only sing in the church, we are going to only touch the church. We have to start to touching the world.

Practice by writing/Composing songs.
Not only worship songs, but worldly songs, Songs about love, holiday songs, worldly songs.
Go down a nearby cafe and look around, and compile a playlist that can uplift and compliment that cafe.
Doing these will not only improve you musically, but also to train us to connect worship to worldly music, a step forward to connecting the lost to Jesus.

Ephesians 4

Worship can change the atmosphere.

Everyone has a specific grace in our lives; Every grace has a place in worship.

2 Corinthians 12

Teaching grace: Making sure that every learns the word of God through the worship.

Pastoral grace: Making sure that everyone is connected; gathering the people.

Evangelistic grace: Having that need, to always find the problems and struggles in others lives and pray over them.

Apostolistic grace: Wanting to impact the world.

Prophetic Grace: Strong connection to worship to God, Easily lost in their own worship.

Lifegroup (Cell Group) Is where the miracles happen.

There is a place for everybody in the Kingdom of God.

We have to be authentic in our worship.

God is not looking for Worship, he’s looking for Worshippers.

There’s 2 types of Worship: Spiritual and Prophetic.

Spiritual: Overflow of OUR Hearts, Soul and Mind to God.
Prophetic: Overflow of HIS Heart, Soul and Mind to us.





3 Things we can use in worship:

1) Wordless melodies: Only using “Ohs, Ahs and Mmmms” to praise God, there is a certain power, especially when done in a group.

2) Sing with understanding: Say words we know during worship to praise God. Note: We have to say words that are in the key content of the worship song itself, we can’t sidetrack from the worship song, because the song is always connected to the teaching, which is also connected to the Leader/Pastor.

3) Sing with an unknown language:Basically singing in tongues. A good practise is to sing in tongues and then try to decypher what we are saying in our unknown language to God.

Get content from the holy spirit whilst having worship.
Practise connecting songs into our own songs.
E.g. Our God, is an awesome God he reigns….. Our God is an awesome God, (Then add our own worship song to the lord):  Our God is  awesome, our God is a majestic God, our God is amazing, Our God is an awesome God.

Another difference is that, Prophetic singing, is meant to be judge and evaluated, because it's for God’s people, it's a message to be shared. And Spiritual singing is a singing and getting a personal message from God for ourselves.

When we sing scriptures instead of reading them, we are 8x More likely to remember them, and that gives an amazing boost to our Spiritual lives.

Spontaneous Prophetic words from God, nothing rehearsed or practised, just sudden words you hear from the lord and you just sing out during worship.

Instrumental Prophesy: Playing a certain set of chords, riffs, licks etc to God, It may be based on, Joy, Peace, Warfare etc.\

1 Chronicles 25:1
Learn to craft a song around the word that was preached.
Take notes and make songs, catchy phrases, Powerful words/Sentences that were preached.

Isaiah 42 :6-10

Idea: Make a song out of your favourite verse.
