Worship Matters (Part 1)

Dr. Roberto Miranda
(Audio: Spanish)

SUMMARY: The importance of worship is highlighted in the Book of Acts Chapter 16, where Paul and Silas are imprisoned in Philippi. Despite their situation, they choose to worship God and this leads to a series of events that result in the jailer and his family being saved. The Pentecostal movement has emphasized the importance of worship, recognizing that it facilitates the manifestation of the Holy Spirit. Worship is not just a formality, but a dynamic and complex process that requires breaking through to allow the presence of God to emerge.

In this sermon, the speaker emphasizes the importance of praise and worship in the church. He uses the example of the woman with the alabaster vase to explain that sometimes we need to break ourselves in order to release the perfume of worship and fill the space with the presence of God. He encourages each individual to take responsibility for their own worship and not to depend on the pastor or worship leaders. He explains that praise unleashes the Holy Spirit and can break chains and bind demons. The speaker urges young people to worship God and not be afraid to open their mouths and praises the Lord. He ends with a prayer for a congregation that loves to worship and a deeper awareness of the importance of worship in their lives.


A meditation that I am going to base on the Book of Acts chapter 16. We are going to skip because I told the musicians and singers that we were going to make this service a meditation on Praise, on Adoration. So since we had them leading us in adoration, let's also take a moment to meditate on the importance, the role of praise, of adoration in the life of God's people.

We could title this sermon 'Worship Matters'. Worship matters. Say everyone: "adoration", Ah! No, no, but that didn't eat enough bananas this morning. "Worship matters." Another way of saying is 'worship is important.' But let's go to the Book of Acts Chapter 16, as I say, starting there with Verse 16 itself. We have a passage here - what I'm doing is going forward and then go back another time.
