Some of the Testimonies and Take aways:

“God is calling us to rebuild the walls and the Temple back to where we are called as a
Worshipping Church.... Tatak yan ng JIA MAKATI kaya we need to pursue to be an anointed and
skillful Worshipers...” ( Kuya Bhoy Torres)
 “There is a prescribed way of carrying God’s presence. ( Story of The Ark of Covenant
transported - 2 Samuel 6: 1-7) But most of the time we are not mindful that we are adapting the
ways of the world (Philistines cart) and we are using them in our churches thinking that the Lord
will used them to save people and bring harvest. Ways of the world cannot bring God’s
presence and if we are not careful of revering God His way, instead of having Him draw near to
us the further away He will and the consequences are tragic. Those who will approach Him must
come with reverence and holy fear. Let’s examine our ways in the light of God’s Word our
ultimate guide.” ( Sally Bagacina)

“ It was a breathe of fresh air. The lessons are practical and very easy to apply. It is not just
information but revelation and truth from experience. Pastor Dick spoke for the whole day and i
never felt sleepy despite the fact that i lack sleep the night before. It was a day well spent.” (
Gem Barrion)

“The seminar was indeed a learning experience and a time of refreshing for all of us. Amazing
how HZCC journeyed with us for one whole day of worship. Their generosity is a blessing. They
have lead us to a heavenly worship. Their humility and excellence inspires us to seek more of
God's presence and ask for His anointing. The seminar helped us go back to the pattern of
Davidic worship God has revealed through King David, applied in a relevant and practical way
even in our time. There was a time of impartation and prayer towards the end.” ( Leng Punzalan
-Rojales)

Anointed Worship comes from the relationship between the worshipper & GOD. - No amount
of practice can compensate for the lack of relation with GOD. - Worship & heart are inseparable.
Thus our heart must be set on the Lord. - Its NOT our beautiful voices, skillful musicians or the
number of musical instruments we are using that toucheas the hearts & mind of the people but
its the PRESENCE OF THE LORD.” ( Wowie Demapanag )

“Bilang mga worshippers, tayo ang magdadala sa congregation. Dapat di tayo haharap sa Lord
at sa tao na may mga dalang kabigatan. Laging handang matuto sa mga pagkakamali at
tumanggap ng pagtutuwid Ng ating mga leaders para sa ikauunlad sa sarili. Laging bigyan ng
time ang Lord, matutong sumunod ng walang pag-aalinlangan dahil malay natin isa lamang
itong test ng Lord sa atin para ibalik sayo ang higit pa sa binitawan mo para sa kanya. Be
humble, lalo na sa mga papuri ng tao, na dapat ay sa Panginoon lamang. Diyos ang dapat na
tinataas natin at hindi ang ating mga sarili dahil tayo ay tumatayo sa habag lamang ng
Panginoon. Dito din po ay mahalaga ang communication,instructions at unity po sa mga
musicians, singers, media para sa gayon po ay maayos ang flow ng ating worship.” ( Jennifer
Punzalan)

“The Validation of "Strange Fire" additions to worship - mga bagay na hindi naman kailangan
para magworship.” (Ate Shirley Bernal )
 “Para maging anointed Worship Leader back to basic talaga, babad sa Salita ng Lord,
preparation, aralin ang mga songs, at laging maayos ang puso natin na wala tayong kaaway.”
( TinTin Valiente )

“Mas lumalim ang aming Sunday Praise and Worship. I can sense more the presence of God
as we worship Him. We hope and pray this will bring more souls to the church in Makati. May
mga walk in na uma-attend seeking for church and we are hoping for them to stay and be part
pf JIA family.
Gaya nga ng isang kanta, “if I be lifted up, I will draw all men unto me.” ( Pat Rontos Jr )
