Beautiful worship in Myanmar

Worshiping Jesus at Harvest Church-Myanmar

We experienced such beautiful worship today with our brothers and sisters in Myanmar. They truly love Jesus with all that’s within them and it shows in their worship.

This morning we were at Harvest Church-Myanmar, our home church in this beautiful country. With a mixture of praise and worship songs in Burmese and English, we worshiped our God. We lifted up a sacrifice of praise to God with a guitar and a keyboard, along with 100 or so beautiful voices.

There was such a beautiful, sweet and powerful presence of God during worship. God was in the house meeting the needs of His people. It was awesome, one of the most beautiful times of worship I’ve ever experienced.

The children sang a special song, and it was so sweet. The Grace Theological College (GTC) students also sang a special song. They have beautiful voices.

Martha shared her testimony and a great word of encouragement for our brothers and sisters. Then I preached about God’s Grace. I pray it encouraged our brothers and sisters here to ask God for more grace through every struggle and every situation they face. It’s not easy being a Christian in Myanmar, but God’s grace is sufficient.

This afternoon we drove about an hour to a very impoverished village to worship and share God’s Word. We didn’t take any pictures of the people there for their safety. Talk about using what you have to worship God. In this bamboo hut house church they had a guitar player and a drummer. The drummer was one of the pastor’s sons, probably around 8 years old. His drum set was the floor and a metal pan for a cymbal. That little guy blessed me so much. He was very good and kept the beat perfectly.

Most of those in attendance were regular church members. However, one older woman decided to give her life to Jesus. Praise God! Our God is saving souls all around the world.

Worshiping in Third World nations reminds me that we do not need a “light show” to worship God. We just need to come to Him with a pure heart and offer to Him a sacrifice of praise. I believe that pleases God and causes Him to smile upon His people.
