A Foundation You Can Stand On

2. Worship Recalls God’s Saving Deeds in our Lives
We recall the stories of Gods’ saving deeds in our lives. This could be done by exhortation or through songs of praise – songs to God about all the wonderful things He has done. Songs to each other about the wonderful things He has done. These songs can be contemporary or traditional in nature. Remember Jesus is very contemporary and relevant for today. After all did he not hold back the water in the red sea. He struck down the best of your enemies. Have you ever given a shout of grace and the walls came falling down? I’m sure you have a few giants in your trophy case that you can talk about. Remember all the good things He has done and give Him praise for it!


3. Worship Rehearses Our Covenant with God through Jesus.
We have a convenant with God just as the children of Israel did. The scripture says that it is written on our hearts and it is a new and better one. God said He would be our God and we would be His people. We would be called by His name. He would protect us and we would have long life. All we are to do is to love the love our God with all of our heart, soul, mind and strength. We should encourage our congregation to worship God this way. Enrich your heart by doing a study on the blood covenant it will change your life.

4. Worship is Sacrifice
As Christians we worship through this once and for all sacrifice of Jesus Christ. We should participate in the Communion Table often. It should put us in remembrance of this sacrifice. This is where it all began.

There you have it. Four great building materials for your foundation of what Biblical worship is. Pray, study and meditate on these for truths and allow it to change your life. It will affect the way you view worship. With knowledge you obtain, you move closer to knowing the one whom we worship in an intimate way.

If you would like to take your study of the Biblical Foundations of Christian Worship further consider purchasing the booklet “ Learning to Worship With All Your Heart” by Dr. Robert Webber. You can get more information by visiting his web site The Institute for Worship Studies

Worship Him!
Deu.6:5
