Performance or Worship?

It amazes me how sinful humans can be. We are selfish. Lately it seems everywhere I turn, I see musical performances during a Worship service, one after the other. Is it true genuine Worship? In my opinion, no it is not. As someone who has experience in singing and playing guitar for people, I realize how daunting of a task it can be. I know the down fall of failure due to a missed note and I know the successfulness of an amazing job. But where does Worship come in? First off we have to figure out what exactly is a performance? To be honest, I do not know. Is it the flashy lights or the loud fancy music? One could make an argument that those "qualities" enhances the Spirit. Does the Spirit need to be enhanced? I for one say no, the Holy Spirit is God. God moves on whom ever He wants at a random time. So maybe the question should not be about performance, but Worship. Worship is not a style of music. Style is expression only. While a particular type of style might facilitate Worship to a specific people, True Worship has a SPIRIT animated life of its own. True Worship is transcendent through any culture or ethnicity. No mater how horrible a style can be, or awkward a ritual, when the presence of God HITS His people as a congregation of believers, those blessed few will TRUELY Worship their maker at an unexperienced depth. Jesus in John 4:23-24, "yet a time is coming and has now come when the true worshipers will worship the Father in Spirit and in truth, for they are the kind of worshipers the Father seeks. God is spirit, and his worshipers must worship in Spirit and in truth". These words show definition and qualification of TRUE Worship. According to Jesus True Worship is an act of ENGAGING the Father in Spirit and in truth, not engaging the preacher, the music, nor the praise band. True Worship does not exist where the motivation/ENGAGEMENT of God, is absent. GOD IS SPIRIT, GOD TRANSCENDS THROUGH THE SPIRIT. This is how God interacts with His children. Those who Worship Him, must Worship in Spirit and Truth. We must relate with God in Spirit. Our Spirit must be consumed in God's Spirit; however, this is impossible no matter how hard the effort, There is nothing WE CAN DO TO CREATE TRUE WORSHIP. We can Honor and Facilitate, but not Create. THE GOOD NEWS: What is impossible with our carnal humanity is POSSIBLE with God. For those people who Worship in Spirit and Truth the Father SEEKS those Worshipers. Just as God SEEKED ADAM, God takes the initiative in Worship. God is actively seeking. Through the transcendency of the Holy Spirit, He calls and seeks True Worshipers. SO, maybe if we take our selfish eyes off our performances/styles, then God might Seek us. Lord help our unbelief.
