Are we Neglecting PRIVATE COMMUNION with GOD

Main message: The preacher warns against performative Christianity — outward religious activity without private communion — and urges authentic worship that persists even when circumstances are hard.

Key points:

• You can adopt church language, public disciplines, and scriptural quotes yet lack real prayer life.
• Praise and worship risk becoming performance if they only occur under church direction or when things are going well.
• Genuine faith shows itself by praising God and seeking Him privately even when you have "nothing left."
• Authentic worship is not dependent on favorable circumstances or audience approval.
