Why we Worship

PSALM 47

Clap your hands, all peoples!
  Shout to God with loud songs of joy!
For the LORD, the Most High, is to be feared,
  a great king over all the earth.
He subdued peoples under us,
  and nations under our feet.
He chose our heritage for us,
  the pride of Jacob whom he loves.

God has gone up with a shout,
  the LORD with the sound of a trumpet.
Sing praises to God, sing praises!
  Sing praises to our King, sing praises!
For God is the King of all the earth;
  sing praises with a psalm!

Why Sing?

God reigns over the nations;
  God sits on his holy throne.
The princes of the peoples gather
  as the people of the God of Abraham.
For the shields of the earth belong to God;
  he is highly exalted!


Why Scripture?

 

Goodness

Oh, taste and see that the LORD is good! Blessed is the man who takes refuge in him! (Psalm 34:8)


Praise the Living God
| Walt Harrah
There is nothing in all God's creation that is excused from praising the Lord God

Living Water
| Walt Harrah
Jesus offers a water for spiritually thirsty people, and once they drink of it, they never thirst again, for it becomes an everlasting spring that flows out of them.

In The Lord Alone
| Walt Harrah
Everything we need is found in the Lord. He is the fountain of all true and lasting satisfaction.

Prayer For The Future
| Walt Harrah
God's sovereignty. We don't know what the future holds, but we know who holds the future.

The Glory Goes To You
| Walt Harrah
Giving God credit for all that transpires in our lives is the essence of thanksgiving. It's all His doing, not ours.

Pour Out Your Spirit
Walt Harrah
The Father has graciously promised that if we would ask, He would "pour out his Sprit without measure." The song asks for exactly that!

God Will Deliver Me
| Walt Harrah
You might say that God is in the delivery business. Call on me in the day of trouble; I WILL DELIVER YOU, and you will honor me. Psalm 50:15

Think About His Love
| Walt Harrah
A wise person recalls the goodness of God, and how God intentionally loves on us.

Unchanging God
Isaac Watts
Everything around us may change, but the God we worship is immutable. It is not possible for him to improve, age, or morph. Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today and forever. God will always be faithful. He cannot be anything else.

The Lord Is My Light
| Walt Harrah
When we trust in the Lord and look to Him to deliver, and His strength to protect, we have nothing to fear. It's all good.

I Look To The Shepherd
Walt Harrah
We are sheep, but we have a shepherd - Jesus, that Great Shepherd Of The Sheep. Dependency on Him makes total sense, for He is all-powerful, constantly attentive, and able to care for us in this life, and throughout eternity.

No one in this life is exempt from trials. But when they come in the service of Christ, we suffer in his name, and there is purpose in our discomfort. Nonetheless, trials must be weathered, sometimes literally. Consider John Paton.

Every Reason To Be Thankful
Complaining seems to come naturally, doesn't it? Being thankful is a whole different matter. We have to work at it, knowing that if we are obedient in this, God will get the credit he deserves, and our satisfaction in Him will expand.

Priming The Pump Of Gratitude
Who can proclaim he mighty acts of the Lord or fully declare his praise? Psalm 106:2 The answer? No one. But that doesn't mean we shouldn't try.

The Goodness Of God
Exaggeration is possible except when it comes to describing our God. His goodness extends to all, but especially to those who are called by His name, for nothing can happen outside His will, or that is not for our ultimate best.
