John was in the Spirit. That’s why revelation came. Are you? Link in description.

The anointing doesn’t come from your talent. It comes from your positioning.
Revelation 1:10. John says “I was in the Spirit on the Lord’s Day.” Not “I showed up.” Not “I led worship.” I was in the Spirit.
Here’s what that actually costs for worship leaders:
It costs your Sunday morning lie-in when you need to meet with God before you meet with people. It costs the extra hour of rehearsal when you should be in the secret place instead. It costs your reputation as the professional who’s always prepared, because sometimes being in the Spirit means scrapping the setlist when God shows up differently.
Being in the Spirit isn’t mystical. It’s practical. It’s daily. It’s choosing encounter over excellence. Presence over performance. Intimacy over impression.
John didn’t get Revelation because he was gifted. He got it because he was in the Spirit when heaven decided to speak.
So what are you cultivating during the week? Because Sunday will expose it.
If you spend Monday through Saturday building setlists but not building intimacy, your worship leading will reflect that. Songs but no substance. Music but no message. Performance but no power.
The congregation can feel the difference between a worship leader who spent time with Jesus and one who spent time with a setlist.
EAT THE SCROLL is 12 months in Revelation for worship leaders who want to lead from overflow, not from empty. For worship team members and musicians who want to understand the glorified Christ and how that reshapes worship ministry.
We go live Tuesday 10th March.

Being in the Spirit on the Lord’s Day starts with being in the Spirit on Monday. And Tuesday. And Wednesday.
John wasn’t accidentally in the Spirit. He was positioned. Practiced. Prepared.
That’s what we’re after.
