Face-down Worship

 Scripture:

“The twenty-four elders sitting on their thrones before God fell with their faces to the ground and worshiped him. And they said, “We give thanks to you, Lord God, the Almighty, the one who is and who always was, for now you have assumed your great power and have begun to reign.” ‭‭Revelation‬ ‭11‬:‭16‬-‭17‬ ‭NLT‬‬

Observation:

In this passage, the 24 elders fell on their faces and worshiped God Almighty. Their words are powerful words of worship. “We give thanks to You, Lord God, the Almighty, the one who is and who always was, for now You have assumed Your great power and have begun to reign.” They start with thanks and end in submission.

Application:

Just as the 24 elders fell on their faces before God Almighty, we should fall on our faces before Him. He is the only one worthy of our worship and honor. Worship should be our response to the goodness of God in our lives. Worship is more than singing a song, it is face down, humbling ourselves before the King of the Universe. I believe in face-down worship.

Prayer:

Father, You are the only one worthy. You are holy. You are mighty and I extol Your name. Let my worship be exactly what You want. Teach me to worship face-down. Let every area of my life be submitted and surrendered to You. Let my life bring You the glory and honor You deserve. 

Forever Yours,

Jeff
