One constant pitfall we must watch for is taking credit for something that God does in or through us, or using the gifts and callings of God for self-exaltation.

In that light, it may be easier to handle poverty, weakness, or insignificance, than wealth, ability, power or authority, since poverty and frailty are not normally things we boast about, and they cause us to recognize our need for God.

Prosperity, on the other hand, can lead to pride, covetousness, and self-sufficiency.

Saul, who came from a humble background, was anointed king of Israel, yet his heart was revealed when the Lord exalted him. But he exulted in his own position, eventually coveting it so severely he became a fierce enemy of God. The Lord then removed His spirit from Saul, and the true condition of the man became apparent to everyone.

Even the great Solomon, whose gifting, anointing, and prosperity were unsurpassed in some ways, seems to have taken for granted his abilities and wealth...

We have made some significant changes in our sound quality. All four streams went through a major enhancement and the worship music sounds better than ever! Please, check out the new sound on any of our four streams: Praise & Worship, Contemporary, Instrumental and Spanish. We think you'll be pleased. And we welcome your feedback!

Message: Earlier this week the biopsy confirmed my melanoma has metastasized for the third time. My 5 year life expectancy is in the low single digits. Just ahead more surgery and months of dreadful chemo therapy. For over a year I've supported Allworship.com. Now in my "shadow of death" more than ever I appreciate you're helping me moment by moment to stay in the presence of God. Thank you so thoroughly "praying through" your play list! I cannot fully express my gratitude to all of you! Thank you.

We are so blessed to be able to broadcast Christian worship music around the world. We thank you for allowing us to do this for the past 13 years! Everyone connected with AllWorship is very humbled to be part of this ministry. We realize this accomplishment has nothing to do with us. It has everything to do with God and His awesome power. We can see God’s hands guiding this ministry at every decision point, even before AllWorship began. Here is the story of how AllWorship came to be in 2004.
