Praise and Worship

God calls us to be worshippers in Spirit and in truth! (John 4:24)   It doesn’t say we can worship God anyway we want, but we "must worship Him in spirit and in truth".  The purpose of our worship is to glorify, honor, praise, exalt, and please God. Our worship must show our adoration and loyalty to God for His grace in providing us with the way to escape the bondage of sin, so we can have the salvation He so much wants to give us. God seeks true worshippers, and He identifies them as those who "worship Him in spirit and in truth". Worshipping God in spirit means that it must be done from the heart. Worshipping God in truth means that it must be done according as God has specified in the Bible.Worship should cause us to reflect on the majesty and graciousness of God and Christ, contrasted to our own unworthiness. God does not have to have our worship, but we must worship Him to please Him. Our singing, praying, studying His word, giving, and communion are designed by God to bring us closer to Him and to cause us to think more like He thinks, thus becoming more like Him. James 4:8 tells us to, "Draw near to God and He will draw near to you."

Rooted Deep is more than a band that performs Christian songs.  We are worshippers who worship in Spirit and in Truth.  Sunday, September 16, was another chance for us to lead a congregation of the body of Christ into His worship.  We were at the Carpenter's House International in Virginia Beach, VA.  Thank you to Pastor Vinny Locsciale and all the church members for receiving us into your family and allowing us this privilege.  We pray you were blessed!
If you come to any of our concerts you will see first-hand that we are worshippers.  We love to bring God's people before His Throne of Grace. 
The Lord is Good and His Mercy endureth forever! Psalm 136:1
