This entire sermon is based on a false premise. Contrary to what you imply, the Hebrew words for prophecy and worship are never used interchangeably. The first three references to prophesying in the Old Testament are found in Numbers 11:25-27. The Hebrew verb used there is נָבָא (naba), the same as in the next five references to prophesying - at 1 Samuel 10:5-13. Nowhere in any of it's 114 occurrences In the Old Testament is נָבָא (naba) ever translated as meaning 'to worship'. Likewise, principal Hebrew verb used for worship is שָׁחָה (shachah), which appears 172 times in the Old Testament. It is translated 96 times as 'worship' in the RSV. Other times it is translated with the meaning 'to bow down', or 'to prostrate oneself'. Neither שָׁחָה (shachah) nor any of the other Hebrew words sometimes translated as worship is ever translated as meaning 'to prophesy'. In the Septuagint, the corresponding Greek verb is προσκυνέω (proskuneó) is used.This is also the main verb for worship in the New Testament, where it appears 60 times. The Old and New Testament view of worship is one that combines the humble, reverential, attitude of mind and body in homage. Nowhere in Scripture does worship ever have anything to do with music, singing or dancing. Indeed, anyone who pays attention to what the Hebrew and Greek words mean and describe would recognize in an instant the implausibility of a worshipper doing any of those things while worshiping. Psalm 95:6 typifies the physical posture attending worship: _O come, let us worship and bow down, let us kneel before the LORD, our Maker!_ while Hebrews 12:28-29 sums up the attitude we should bring to worship: _Therefore let us be grateful for receiving a kingdom that cannot be shaken, and thus let us offer to God acceptable worship, with reverence and awe; for our God is a consuming fire._
What an amazing talk! Love how you said about the spiritual life being based on prayer/worship life. The 4 principles are gold! ❤

I was wondering what the name of Finny's friend is (who he mentioned in the beginning) so I can listen to a message from him. Thank you.
I think it’s Jake Kail. I was wondering the same and I heard a message from Jake where he said he had similar experience.
