DEVOTED
Devote yourself to developing the new creature you are through the study of God's Word, Worship and Seeking His face. Be enlightened by the still small voice that confirms your understanding and keeps you devoted to God.

WORSHIP
Nehemiah 9:3 And they stood up in their place, and read in the book of the law of the Lord their God one fourth part of the day; and another fourth part they confessed, and worshipped the Lord their God.
I have heard it said to exercise the body and mind but never the Spirit. In my walk with the Lord, I have understood that we have to exercise our Spiritual muscle as well. Just like the body or mind, transformation comes with continuous attention and manipulation.
It is common to reach out your hand in worship, demonstrating the desire to "connect" with God. As a people we often "know not what we do", in reaching out we are seeking the reciprocation of the emotion we are carrying. We also look for a change in emotion or to recieve transformation from outstretched arms. And our faith is made real when we perform it. When we worship, we build a literal bridge or connection to our God.
As your time spent in worship increases so does your Spirit-man. He becomes stronger and lighter at the same time like a feather. Bringing you to one day when you will not have to "reach out" to connect with God. You will only have to allow the wind to catch you, and ascend.
