The Battle // Your Worship is Your Weapon // Pastor Lee Cummings

The Battle is a series that will explore the spiritual realm, spiritual warfare, angels and demons, and will also examine the signs of the return of Christ found in scripture.

In this sermon from Pastor Lee Cummings, we learn that our worship is one of our greatest weapons against the enemy, and that worship shouldn't be about our preferences, it should be about God's preferences.

Focus Scripture // Psalm 149:1-9 (ESV)

“Praise the Lord! Sing to the Lord a new song, his praise in the assembly of the godly! 2 Let Israel be glad in his Maker; let the children of Zion rejoice in their King! 3 Let them praise his name with dancing, making melody to him with tambourine and lyre! 4 For the Lord takes pleasure in his people; he adorns the humble with salvation. 5 Let the godly exult in glory; let them sing for joy on their beds. 6 Let the high praises of God be in their throats and two-edged swords in their hands, 7 to execute vengeance on the nations and punishments on the peoples, 8 to bind their kings with chains and their nobles with fetters of iron, 9 to execute on them the judgment written! This is honor for all his godly ones. Praise the Lord!”

Sermon Highlights

Your worship is
- An offering to the Lord
- Deliverance for others
- Defeat for the enemy

Don’t view worship through the lens of the consumer

It shouldn’t be about our preferences, it should be about His

Even in the midst of your darkness, Praise Him and the chains will break

If we only see worship as how it affects us, we’ll miss out on how it can bring deliverance

The enemy doesn’t have to take our all, he just needs to divide it for him to get what he wants
