No Holds Barred Worship

What a beautiful scene of heaven!:
9 After this I looked, and behold, a great multitude that no one could number, from every nation, from all tribes and peoples and languages, standing before the throne and before the Lamb, clothed in white robes, with palm branches in their hands, 10 and crying out with a loud voice, “Salvation belongs to our God who sits on the throne, and to the Lamb!” 11 And all the angels were standing around the throne and around the elders and the four living creatures, and they fell on their faces before the throne and worshiped God, 12 saying, “Amen! Blessing and glory and wisdom and thanksgiving and honor and power and might be to our God forever and ever! Amen.”- Revelation 7.9-12 (www.lifejournal.cc)
It says every nation, tribe, people and language are worshipping together.  That is a foreign concept this Sunday morning in 99.9% of churches, yet all of heaven will worship together.  The most segregated place in America is when the Body of Christ worships together.  Does that fascinate you just a little?
Again it describes their worship with a sevenfold praise statement (v.12).  That is perfect praise.  So perfect praise comes from all God's people from all over the world from all eras of time.  What a concert that be!
In the meantime our worship needs to be as much like this as finitely possible.  It's no holds barred worship!
Let's worship with all of our hearts and all we are this morning!
