In The Worship Warrior John Dickson and I write: When we worship and intercede, we tear down the snares that have been erected in the earth by our enemy. God has a process of manifesting His will on Earth. Worship invades each one of the steps of that process. The process is as follows:

1. Intercessory Burden. God releases His burden from heaven. One of the words related to intercession is “burden bearing.” This means to sustain, bear or hold up against a thing. Dutch Sheets writes that “this is likened to when a person will tie a stake to a tomato plant to sustain it from the weight it carries. The strength of the stake is transferred to the plant, and thus, ‘bears’ it up.” Sheets goes on to write that another [meaning] for burden is “to bear, lift or carry” some- thing with the idea being to carry it away or remove it….The intercessory work of Christ reached its fullest and most profound expression when our sins were “laid on” Him and He bore “them away.” Therefore, the Lord will lay His burden on us for something in the earthly realm, and we are to stand and pray until we get rid of it. I do not believe we can withstand this burden with- out intimate worship.

2. Revelation Released. When we are bearing the bur- den of the Lord, we are lifting that burden up to Him for change. He begins to release revelation to us that will give us strategy to see the individual or the city or the nation or the situation change. The Holy Spirit begins to help us. He is our advocate. He is our comforter. He

is our helper. He is our counselor. He is our intercessor. He helps us in our weakness, so we can withstand the weight of this burden. When we don’t know how to pray, He reveals the will of the Father to us. This is another way of saying what we find in Romans 8:26-28: Revelation can come to us naturally or supernaturally. But it only comes when we touch God in some way or form of intimate worship—whether it be reading the Bible, walking and praying, singing or whatever.

3. Prophetic Declaration. Once we have revelation, we can make declaration. We can call things as they should be. The Lord formed the world by faith. As we ascend in worship, faith abounds. We can then speak what is not into the form that it should be. This is the creative power of the Word when filled with Christ’s life. As we worship we hear, and the life of God abounds in the earth.

4. Apostolic Execution. Once the Word and will of God is being released in heaven, our burden begins to lift. The gift of apostles is key in days ahead. Apostolic authority is key to establishing God’s will in the earth. Apostles have territorial authority. They also execute the prophetic will of the Lord in the earthly realm. Apostles are called to worship and war.

5. Divine Fulfillment. One of the gifts of the apostle is the gift of building. Once God has released His will from heaven, we have interceded and stood in the gap to see that will established, we’ve made prophetic dec- larations, and apostolic leadership has gone forth into new vision, then we begin to see the divine will of God fulfilled in the earth. We then drop on our knees and

worship and thank God.18

Dickson and I go on to say in The Worship Warrior, God’s sound permeates from heaven and orders much of what goes on in the earthly realm. When He is ready to bring restoration to Earth, He releases His sound. Physical sound is created when something vibrates.

Sometimes we can see the vibration, and sometimes we cannot. When we clap our hands or stomp our feet, vibration occurs. This causes air to move. The source of the sound vibrates and pushes the molecules through the air and into our ears, and our brains then interpret it as sound. Sound, when unorganized, produces noise. Sound, when organized, produces music.…

There were songs of triumph after victory in battle (see Exod. 15:1; Judg. 5:1). Miriam and the women celebrated the downfall of Pharaoh and his horse- men “with timbrels and with dances” (Exod. 15:20), and Jehoshaphat returned victorious to Jerusalem “with stringed instruments and harps and trum- pets” (2 Chron. 20:28). Music, singing and dancing were common at feasts (see Isa. 5:12; Amos 6:5). In particular, they were features of the vintage festivals (see Isa. 16:10) and of marriage celebrations. Kings had singers and instrumentalists (see 2 Sam. 19:35; Eccles. 2:8). The shepherd boy had his lyre (see 1 Sam. 16:18). The young men at the gates enjoyed their music (see Lam. 5:14).19

I want to add two other points that occur in addition to the five above:

6. Gates Open for the King of Glory. I call this heav- enly portals opening for the Lord to visit. “Lift up your heads, O you gates! And be lifted up, you everlasting doors! And the King of glory shall come in. Who is this King of glory? The Lord strong and mighty, the Lord mighty in battle. Lift up your heads, O you gates! Lift up, you everlasting doors! And the King of glory shall come in. Who is this King of glory? The Lord of hosts, He is the King of glory” (Ps. 24:7-10).

7. The Lord of Hosts, Yahweh Sabaoth, the Captain

of all the angelic armies, the armies of Israel, the hosts of nations, ruler of everything in Heaven and on earth, sends help on our behalf. The King then

When we worship, He begins to order and align His armies for victory. “Hosts” signifies an organized group under authority. God has a multitude of ready and able servants. This suggests that the Lord is the Comman- der-in-Chief of the armies in Heaven.
