The Spiritual Discipline of Worship

 
 
There is a current sermon series on Spiritual Disciplines. 
Worship:  a reverence or awe of God.  It can be individual or corporate.  It speak of how we act or live in account to God.  It is the proper response of a believer to God.
 
Those who know God best, worship Him the most.
 
We worship Him for:

Eternal Truths:  His Holiness.  He is holy, set apart and pure. He is God Almighty, sovereign and supreme.  There is nothing outside His dominion. 
 
He is Worthy:  He is the Creator and we are the creation.  Worship is practical and involves something.  What we say and do is action, it is not a feeling, but an expression of love to Him.
 
4 Things About Worship:

1. True worship involves purity.  The purer our lives are, the greater our worship.
2. It involves humility.  We recognize who He is, how great He is and bow in submission.
3. It involves surrender.  We acknowledge He is over all and we surrender all that we are to Him, our hope, our future, all we have and are.
4. Praise.  We praise God for who He is, what He is and all He is.
