Is the Worship Leader only the guy we see on stage every Sunday … or perhaps the Business Owner or Team Manager? 🤔
…
God has spoken to me on many times about work as worship and how my corporate placement is also my service and my worship space…
What I missed somehow, in reading articles, studies and books is that in Hebrew, there is no distinction:
Work / Service / Worship = Avodah (עבודה) – same word
“…In some verses the word avodah means work, as in to work in the field and to do common labor. Moses, renewing the covenant with God, says,
“Six days you shall work (avodah).”
(Exodus 34:21)
“Then man goes out to his work (avodah), to his labor until evening.”
(Psalm 104:23)
In other verses, avodah means worship, as in to worship You, O God.
“This is what the LORD says: Let my people go, so that they may worship (avodah) me.”
(Exodus 8:1)
“But as for me and my household, we will serve (avodah) the Lord.”
(Joshua 24:15)
As for me, Joshua says, I will avodah. I will work for, and worship, the Lord…”
There is no option to split it, to serve the Lord but work for money… because if you avodah money you also serve and worship it.
