How Can we Lead our people to Worship the Lord?

  Worship leading isn’t just for those with exceptional musical talent and the
charisma to “work a room”. It’s all about being a pastor. The task of calling our people to
worship is pastoral in nature it is how you care, who you are reproducing ,loving the
church, having a discipleship strategy ,worshiping with your worship team ,having
patience with immature worshipers, loving Jesus, preparing your team for spontaneous
worship, bearing each other’s burdens, teaching people to worship through trials
,teaching people to worship through distraction ,being sensitive to what people need,
leading your team through change ,praying for your congregation.

    In other words, its all about preparing the people to know the Lord. There is a saying
that the deeper our people to know Christ the higher their experience in worship. Let me
share some of the things I personally do as a pastor as I effectively challenge people to
worship the Lord.

1.Teaching the word of God.

The bible itself is our guide to effectively worship the Lord. Its far beyond music and
talents and skill. So, it is crucial for a pastor to deliberately study the word and share it
to his people. Pastors, who preach about the spiritual discipline of worship and exhort
their people to sing and praise God in the congregation, are leading worship in a
powerful way.

2.Leading by Example.

    The Pastor understands his role as the Lead Worshipper and that is his life. The
pastor’s life must vividly be seen as a man worth following by living the very words he
preaches. People can learn from our life and as we live our life in the pursuit of worship
it transcends to the life of our people as they know God even more by our own example.

3. Building a team that work.

    Pastors lead worship when they invite the musicians into a shared ministry of worship
leadership.  Far from the mindset that says, “You pray, and I’ll pray, and we’ll see what
God does on Sunday,” this Pastor invites the music leader into his inner circle of
preaching strategy and prayer. And, this pastor does that because he understands his
responsibility to lead worship in his church.

4.Challenge our team for continuous growth in both heart and skill.

    As a pastor we also want to challenge our people to grow not only by the heart (inner
man) but as they develop, we train them to be skillful. The Lord wants a heart filled with
wonders and song but he also wants his people to worship him by the abilities he had
given us. The Lord is worthy of the best we can give and he deserve it alone! To God be the Glory!

Rebuke but Don’t Criticize

Nothing shuts down communication and disrupts the harmony of a relationship faster than harsh, sniping, negative comments. Constant criticism destroys a person’s spirit. It breeds hurt, resentment, defensiveness, and even hatred. Criticism and rebuke are not the same thing. A rebuke differs from criticism in at least two important ways: the spirit from which it comes and the purpose for which it is given.  Criticism arises from a wounded and self-centered spirit that seeks to wound in return.A rebuke, on the other hand, comes from a loving and compassionate spirit that not only recognizes a problem but also seeks a fair and equitable solution with a heartfelt desire for the good of the other person. In short, a rebuke is motivated by love, whereas criticism is not. Develop the discipline of thinking before speaking. Whenever a problem arises or a conflict flares up and you feel the urge to criticize, ask yourself if it is a legitimate problem for which rebuke and correction are in orde

My personal Testimony

My name is Christian Mangubat, Intern pastor of HIS LIFE Ministries Inc. This is my story;      The journey in Queen City of the South 2014, where I learned being a Christian won’t make you immune to temptations. Trying to fix myself out from a broken relationship to an escalation of my addiction to gaming that led me to even more despair and depression. December 26 of the same year, I woke up with severe stomach pain that I can barely move.”      I failed you Lord but if you extend your grace today, I will offer all “I desperately prayed. Hours later helped arrived.      In mind going home is the best option but there is a storm that halted my travel. Nothings seem to work. In desperation, I went to the bus station where almost 500 passengers were present. The last 2 buses were approaching, everybody is in a hurry, windows become entrance and fights among passengers were evident.                                “Who Is Christian Mangubat?” a shout from a noisy crowd.      I raised my h

How to “Fall Up”

Restoration After Character Failure Leaders are normally trained in how to succeed, but they are rarely taught how to fail effectively by learning from their mistakes and making changes to avoid repeating them in the future. They fall down, but they don’t know how to “fall up” after failing. Remember that a leader’s ability to function successfully in his role of influencing others for a great cause in the interest of humanity is what I call the “trust factor.” Trust is the currency of true leadership and is the power that is deposited into the leader’s influence account. The only way to protect this deposit of trust is to establish strong character If an individual wants to secure his leadership, he must make protecting and maintaining his account of trust his principal responsibility. It can take years for a leader to build this account but only minutes of irresponsibility to deplete it and even cancel it. The following are the steps to restoration, reconciliation, and reclamation af
