What is Worship?

Today in our week-long focus on the foundations of a quality time alone with God, we’re going to look at the devotional piece of our times together. I’m so excited to share with you our heart behindwhat you hear every day, and I know that our time together will help you get even more out of this space for God’s presence.More from First15Read today's devotional or listen to today's worship song at First15.org/todayDownload the First15 appDonate to First15 at supportfirst15.orgShare a testimony or feedback at [email protected] to First15Check out our new Guided Prayers podcast - Subscribe for new episodes every Monday!First15 is a brand of Denison Ministries.

Today we’ll continue our week looking at the foundation of a quality time alone with God by looking at the value of worship. Worship is perhaps the most foundational part of a quality time alone with God. It takes what can so often be a self-centered time, and empowers us to put God, with all his love and goodness, right at the center of our time instead.More from First15Read today's devotional or listen to today's worship song at First15.org/todayDownload the First15 appDonate to First15 at supportfirst15.orgShare a testimony or feedback at [email protected] to First15Check out our new Guided Prayers podcast - Subscribe for new episodes every Monday!First15 is a brand of Denison Ministries.

This week we’ll spend time breaking down the individual components of First15 by sharing God's desire for each of them. The majority of First15 is dedicated to encountering God and learning about his character, but every now and then we will cover some teaching and tools that will help in pursuing God to greater depths. This week we will get back to the basics and learn some spiritual disciplines that will help us encounter him in deeper, more transformative ways.More from First15Read today's devotional or listen to today's worship song at First15.org/todayDownload the First15 appDonate to First15 at supportfirst15.orgShare a testimony or feedback at [email protected] to First15Check out our new Guided Prayers podcast - Subscribe for new episodes every Monday!First15 is a brand of Denison Ministries.

For our final day of this week, we’re going to ask God to awaken the hearts of our nation and culture. The need for a move of God has become more obvious than ever, yet he often moves in response to the faithful prayers of his people. Let us be those people today and ask for the great awakening our world so desperately needs.More from First15Read today's devotional or listen to today's worship song at First15.org/todayDownload the First15 appDonate to First15 at supportfirst15.orgShare a testimony or feedback at [email protected] to First15Check out our new Guided Prayers podcast - Subscribe for new episodes every Monday!First15 is a brand of Denison Ministries.

As we continue our first week of the new year, today we’re going to look at how God redeems all that he allows. Each of us faces difficult seasons in our lives, but thankfully, God does not leave us there alone. Even today, even now, God is working to redeem our pain and heartache for his glory and our good.More from First15Read today's devotional or listen to today's worship song at First15.org/todayDownload the First15 appDonate to First15 at supportfirst15.orgShare a testimony or feedback at [email protected] to First15Check out our new Guided Prayers podcast - Subscribe for new episodes every Monday!First15 is a brand of Denison Ministries.

Today we’re going to explore what it means to truly trust God. Life is full of incredibly difficult circumstances, and in the midst of disappointments and pain, it can be hard to trust that he is good and loving. But thankfully, God promises us that we can trust his heart even when we can’t see his hand. Let’s look today at what it means to trust God in the midst of our circumstances.More from First15Read today's devotional or listen to today's worship song at First15.org/todayDownload the First15 appDonate to First15 at supportfirst15.orgShare a testimony or feedback at [email protected] to First15Check out our new Guided Prayers podcast - Subscribe for new episodes every Monday!First15 is a brand of Denison Ministries.

As we begin a brand new year, we’re going to explore what it looks like to create New Year’s resolutions that matter. Many of us feel the pressure to make changes that will positively impact our lives, yet we often struggle to find resolutions that are truly valuable and sustainable. But God, in his love, promises to make us new creations when we surrender ourselves to him and his plans. So, as we dive into this brand new year, let’s explore what it looks like to receive this great gift of transformation today.More from First15Read today's devotional or listen to today's worship song at First15.org/todayDownload the First15 appDonate to First15 at supportfirst15.orgShare a testimony or feedback at [email protected] to First15Check out our new Guided Prayers podcast - Subscribe for new episodes every Monday!First15 is a brand of Denison Ministries.

For the last day of the year, we’re going to take time to simply make space for God to fill. Whenever we make a little room in our day, and in our hearts for God, it always amazes me how he can fill us with exactly what we need. So today, simply make room for God for whatever you need most, and allow him to fill that space with his good and perfect nearness.More from First15Read today's devotional or listen to today's worship song at First15.org/todayDownload the First15 appDonate to First15 at supportfirst15.orgShare a testimony or feedback at [email protected] to First15Check out our new Guided Prayers podcast - Subscribe for new episodes every Monday!First15 is a brand of Denison Ministries.

As we near the end of this year, today I want to create space to simply dream with God. God has so many incredible plans for you next year. He has so many dreams in his heart for you. And today as we create space for him, my hope is that he shares those dreams with us, that we could partner with him in running after the abundant life he has for each of us. May your heart be filled with the fruit of his incredible plans today.Double your gift to First15More from First15Read today's devotional or listen to today's worship song at First15.org/todayDownload the First15 appDonate to First15 at supportfirst15.orgShare a testimony or feedback at [email protected] to First15Check out our new Guided Prayers podcast - Subscribe for new episodes every Monday!First15 is a brand of Denison Ministries.

Today we’re going to take a look at the fresh hope we have in God’s nearness. God’s promise to be near to us as his people, and the great lengths he’s gone to commune with us in the Holy Spirit, has the power to change every moment of our lives. And one of the most powerful changes his nearness provides is hope, and the peace that comes with it. As we make space for his presence today, I pray that he fills us with a new measure of hope and life in his nearness.More from First15Read today's devotional or listen to today's worship song at First15.org/todayDownload the First15 appDonate to First15 at supportfirst15.orgShare a testimony or feedback at [email protected] to First15Check out our new Guided Prayers podcast - Subscribe for new episodes every Monday!First15 is a brand of Denison Ministries.
