Experiencing Worship - The Study
Online Preview Version
What are acceptable ways to worship?
1. Psalm 24:3-6
2. Hebrews 12:28-29
3. Deut. 26:10
One of the most meaningful acts of worship recorded in the New Testament is in John 12:1-3. What was the act of worship that was given to Jesus, and by whom was it given?
Who is God referring to in Acts 13:22, and what does He say about this individual?
Read the following scriptures and give a brief summary of this person's heart towards God and worship. Psalms 29:2, 95:6, 96:9, 99:5, 99:9, 132:7.

Do you believe that with all that had happened to David, with the death of his child and the constant threat of his enemies, he was a man that felt like worshiping all the time?
Do you think that it was always easy for him to express praise to God midst the trials and difficult times?
Most of the time when we enter into a worship service, we come with the attitude of what can I receive from this service? Has the worship leader picked good songs this week? Will I leave feeling that I have worshiped? I hope the sermon is funny this week.
When we enter a worship service, the question in our minds and hearts should always be; what can I give today in worship through my singing, listening and participation, that will be pleasing to the Lord? How can I be obedient in worship and not seek self but God. David did this very thing. Throughout the Psalms David praised God and worshiped Him. I don't believe he expected anything in return. It was always a giving thing with him. The result of his praise, however, was that God did bless him and protected him from his enemies. He praised God for the protection before and after it had occurred. It would be my life's goal to have the Lord say of me that I was a man after God's own heart.
