Worship is the topic of this month’s Tending the Holy Thursday series. On many of my Thursday posts, I pick one theme (or person of faith) to explore deeper for several weeks.

I introduced this topic last week on this post about that you can access by clicking here.

As we explore this spiritual practice, I am so excited about this month’s free download, a beautiful printable called “Worship the Lord.” I compiled 10 verses from the Bible into a one page, easy to refer to guide for your personal study.

Quotes about Worship

Here are some quotes to ponder/ words others have written that may deepen our understanding and participation in this wonderful practice.

I don’t want you just to read or skim the following words. Take your time. Slowly listen to the wisdom here.

Take one word, phrase or idea and think about it throughout your day. Copy your favorite into your journal or put it on a sticky note to review later. Talk with God why that particular thought resonated with you and what is he teaching you in the words that shimmered in your spirit.

I can safely say, on the authority of all that is revealed in the Word of God, that any man or woman on this earth who is bored and turned off by worship is not ready for heaven.

A.W. Tozer

I need to worship because without it I can forget that I have a big God beside me and live in fear. I need to worship because without it I can forget his calling and begin to live in a spirit of self-preoccupation. I need to worship because without it I lose a sense of wonder and gratitude and plod through life with blinders on. I need worship because my natural tendency is toward self-reliance and stubborn independence.

John Ortberg

Without worship, we go about miserable.

The highest form of worship is the worship of unselfish Christian service. The greatest form of praise is the sound of consecrated feet seeking out the lost and helpless.

Billy Graham

******
To worship God in truth is to recognize Him for being who He is, and to recognize ourselves for what we are. -Brother Lawrence

As worship begins in holy expectancy, it ends in holy obedience. Holy obedience
saves worship from becoming an opiate, an escape from the pressing needs of modern
life.
Richard Foster

If you come to worship for any reason other that the joy and pleasure and satisfaction that are to be found in God, you dishonor Him…God’s greatest delight is your delight in Him.
Sam Storms
