πŸ”΄ Clapping is neither praise nor worship.

But clapping is not wrong. Clapping is applause, a sign of approval. It's not spiritual communication with God.


πŸ”΄ You've heard people say, "Let’s clap for Jesus"...

I didn’t say to do it, but you’ve heard it. Spiritually, it makes no sense. Clapping is not praise. It is not worship. It’s time to understand this.


πŸ”΄ Let’s talk about the spirituality of ministry — especially music.

This is crucial. Kenneth E. Hagin, a seasoned prophet and teacher of faith, had an encounter with the Lord that confirmed this truth.


πŸ”΄ In the early ’90s, he had a vision...

While praying for their annual convention, Jesus appeared to him and said:

— Clapping is neither praise nor worship.

— Many things done in church are assumed to be spiritual, but they are not.

— The Lord said: “You’ve gone as far as you can go.”

Because it took too long to get that revelation.


πŸ”΄ He couldn’t correct it in the Body of Christ... but we can.

For someone like me (Pastor Chris), it was easy to catch this truth while still young and align it with God’s Word.


πŸ”΄ Many thought he was saying clapping is wrong. No!

He was saying: Put clapping in its place. It is not worship or praise. It is a natural response of approval or excitement.


πŸ”΄ For example:

When a miracle happens and people clap, they are not praising God. They are reacting emotionally. But they often forget to actually praise or worship God.


πŸ”΄ We worship God with WORDS.

We worship Him by lifting our hands. The Bible says:

Psalm 141:2 — “Let the lifting up of my hands be as the evening sacrifice.”


πŸ”΄ There’s more clapping than lifting of hands in churches today.

Why? Because most believers were never taught to lift their hands. Even those who do lift hands often don’t know why.


πŸ”΄ 1 Timothy 2:8 (KJV) — “I will therefore that men pray every where, lifting up holy hands, without wrath and doubting.”


πŸ”΄ This was a prayer of worship.

Paul emphasized lifting holy hands. But many do it just because others do it or because the worship leader says so — not because they understand its biblical meaning.


πŸ”΄ So what happened?

People clapped in the same way they lifted hands — without understanding. Just following the flow, not the Word.... click on the link below to study the message: You are not a Divine Accident by Pastor Chris

RHAPSODY OF REALITIES DAILY DEVOTIONAL

SATURDAY, DECEMBER 6TH 2025 LET THE GOSPEL BE YOUR PASSION For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth... (Romans 1:16). PASTOR CHRIS OYAKHILOME Dsc. Dsc. DD. The Gospel of Jesus Christ is the power of God to save, heal, deliver and transform lives. That’s why it must be a message you understand, live by, and burn with passion to share with others especially as the coming of the Lord draws nearer than we’ve ever known. Paul the Apostle declared that he was not ashamed of the Gospel. That statement came from a place of deep conviction and unwavering commitment. For him, preaching the Gospel wasn’t optional but life itself. He lived for the Gospel and was willing to die for its advancement. Read His inspiring and heart-stirring words in Acts 20:22-27, “And now, behold, I go bound in the spirit unto Jerusalem, not knowing the things that shall befall me there: Save that the Holy Ghost witnesseth in every city, saying ...

RHAPSODY OF REALITIES DAILY DEVOTIONAL

  SUNDAY, NOVEMBER 16TH 2025 THE KINGDOM, THE FIELD, AND THE SEED Another parable put he forth unto them, saying, The kingdom of heaven is likened unto a man which sowed good seed in his field (Matthew 13:24). PASTOR CHRIS OYAKHILOME Dsc. Dsc. DD. The Lord Jesus, in His remarkable teachings about the Kingdom, used parables to unveil profound truths. One of such examples is the parable of the wheat and tares in Matthew 13. He said, "...the kingdom of heaven is likened unto a man which sowed good seed in his field" (Matthew 13:24). That "man" is the Lord Himself, while the "good seed" represents the children of the Kingdom. The "field," as He later explained, is the world. This is extraordinary. The Lord sowed good seed, not in someone else's field, but in His own field. That tells you the world is His field and part of His Kingdom. It belongs to Him. No matter what we see in the world today, no matter how polluted it appears, the field still b...
