Worship and singing praises to God open a gateway to a profound connection with the divine. As our praises reach God’s heart, they create a two-way stream of communication. When we touch God through our worship, His Holy Spirit touches and ministers to us. This practice can also unlock blessings from God.
We praise God because He is truly deserving. As the Creator of Heaven, Earth, and the universe, He is the giver of life who, through His Son, saves us from eternal damnation. Despite our shortcomings, His love for us is unwavering.
A powerful example of worship is found in the life and Psalms of King David. Described by God as a man after His own heart, David’s love for God was profound, and God loved him deeply. David’s musical talent shone as he regularly expressed his devotion through songs of love and gratitude. He danced and played music to honor God, as depicted in 2 Samuel 6:14-15 (KJV):
"And David danced before the LORD with all his might; and David was girded with a linen ephod. So David and all the house of Israel brought up the ark of the LORD with shouting, and with the sound of the trumpet."
David’s beautiful words capture his deep devotion:
"My heart is fixed, O God, my heart is fixed: I will sing and give praise. Awake up, my glory; awake, psaltery and harp: I myself will awake early. I will praise thee, O Lord, among the people: I will sing unto thee among the nations. For thy mercy is great unto the heavens, and thy truth unto the clouds." (Psalm 57:7-10, KJV)
When we praise God, the Holy Spirit speaks through us, reaching our Heavenly Father. Many have experienced healing during worship, believed to be the power of the Holy Spirit ministering to them.
In the Bible, different Hebrew words convey praise and worship:
- Worship: To bow in reverence or homage, reflecting humility before God’s majesty.
- Praise: To extend hands in adoration, rejoice, give thanks, and bless God with gratitude.
The distinction between worship and praise is that we worship God for who He is, and we praise Him for His deeds. This reflects coming before God in humility, revering His immense power. We praise not from a vantage point of superiority, but from the recognition of our unworthiness in His presence. We acknowledge His infinite love, grace, and power, lifting His name high because of who He is.
By embracing worship with humility, we open our hearts to the transformative power of God’s love and spirit.
