  • 1 - Worship Workshop 1 - Why We Worship

    A 10-minute workshop on WHY we worship; what the Bible says about it.
    Essential points to remember as musicians, singers and the church.
    A Reformed Perspective on Worship.


    Key Points from this talk:

    1. Worship is ascribing 'worth-ship.' (2:20)

    2. Worship God ALONE. (3:05)

    Exodus 20:3-5 'You shall have no other gods before Me... you shall not worship them.'

    Deuteronomy 6:13 'You shall fear ONLY the Lord your God, and you shall worship HIM.' (NASB)

    3. Stop and consider God's Wonders. Job 37:14 (5:00)

    God the Creator. Job 38 & 39

    4. The Heavens declare the glory of God. Psalm 19:1-4 (6:00)

    Man is without excuse. Romans 1:20

    Creation proclaims God's glory, and so should we.

    5. Revelation 4:11 reveals to us images of worship in the throne room of heaven. (7:25)

    We get to do this. We also get to worship God.

    The Westminster Catechism: What is the chief end of man? To glorify God and enjoy Him forever.
