My spirit reels from it. When I'm broken and I utter in tongues mixed with my own language a little song somehow when for example driving the car and I know and God knows it's real, it seems to me that I'm worshipping. Going for it with others (not hundreds necessarily...but those who know how to release their spirit) singing in tongues and getting lost in it is also worship...but there are no limits in this release other than the limits of our own imaginative, creative approach...appropriately Spirit-led banging on pans, stamping feet, going into the garden and getting a tree branch to shake making a nice rustling sound...whatever...twanging elastic....releasing your and others' spirits in Christ...why have formulas for worship about when and where?? No FORM..Only essence! Also lying still, on one's own, no words, just giving your spirit.... It’s all crap…the organised worship lying…happens all the time!

Once again, the Pretender shows his ugly head as we sing songs about ‘going to the enemy’s camp and take back what was stolen from us’ in a ‘weekend warrior’ mentality while we can not transfer the Sunday sermon into the Monday Meat to the Saturday Sanctification and wrestle with temptations we dare not tell anyone about in fear of losing respect, prestige, and glory."</em> was very well said, and punchy too. Nice job. this: “Shiny Happy Idiot People singing Kumbaya as we lie to God about his presence, dominion, and surrender in our own life.
