Psalm 73:25-28 This is the worshipful heart of a psalmist who sees God as his ultimate desire, his portion, the one in whom he takes refuge. Overwhelmed with the joy and satisfaction of knowing and communing with God, he seeks to tell of God’s works. That’s worship.
1. Singing: Psalm 100:1-2; Isaiah 12:5-6; Colossians 3:16 Scripture repeatedly tells us to make a joyful noise to Yahweh, to sing praises to God, and to sing spiritual songs to him. Even if you aren’t a good singer, sing anyhow. It’s not about you; it’s about him.
2. Praying: Psalm 145:1-9; Acts 2:4, 11; 1 Corinthians 14:2 Worshiping God through our prayers is telling him who he is and what he’s done. Whether we pray with our understanding or in an unknown tongue, praising God through prayer is a major part of our weekly worship service.
3. Giving: Deuteronomy 12:6-7; 2 Corinthians 9:7; Mark 12:41-44 Financial giving is an act of worship too, when done with a willing heart, happy to give back in recognition of God’s blessings in your life. The amount isn’t the focus, but the heart of dedication to God.
4. Serving: 1 Peter 4:10-11 There are many opportunities to serve in our weekly gathering. When done to God, even the most mundane acts of service are worship. When done in a begrudging way, even the costliest acts of service are canceled out in God’s eyes. Let’s serve God with zeal and gratitude!
