This Man.

When we were first asked to do a live acoustic set as part of Fusion, with reflective worship songs; this was one of the first immediate songs that came to our minds.

Would you take the place of this man?
Would you take the nails from His hands?


Why? Because worship is a sacrifice. It should be hard sometimes. It should challenge you, shake you and cause you to really think about what you are saying to God. He’s not looking for vain repetition or lovely songs – He wants our hearts that go with it. When you understand that God wants our heart of praise to be focused, deep and meaningful, then praise and worship becomes a whole new experience.

A heart of praise is necessary to salvation.
But songs of salvation are not.

Music is not the only way to worship – far from – and even though the soundtrack to your life may be Christian music, the soundtrack we seek, the thing we strive to listen to more than cool songs should be God’s whispers. Constantly asking us questions and trying our hearts.
PS If you have not yet bought your copy of the devotional you can do so for £3.50 through our website.
