Worship

[stephen]

The four living creatures said, Amen! and the elders fell down and worshipped -
Revelation 5 - 14 RSV


Silence is sometimes even more expressive than song. So, as the mighty anthem in this scene dies away, the church of Christ falls down in silent adoration of Him who sits upon the throne, and of the Lamb.

We have brought before us here, by one who saw Him, the majesty of God, the glory of God. It beggars human language and description. No man can begin to comprehend how great and glorious is God Almighty. We have not the faintest conception. If we had the learning of all the centuries in all the writings about the greatness and glory of God, and could comprehend them in our small minds, still we should have but the merest fraction of a conception of the glory of God. We ought to remember that. Oh what a privilege is ours to come and meet God.

This verse also shows us the importance of worship.
There is no activity of the angelic or human spirit which is higher than that of worshipping God - being taken up with His 'worth-ship', for that is what 'worship' means; extolling different aspects of His worth-ship, with every faculty of body, mind and spirit - in words, in song, and in silence.

Worshipping God is probably the most neglected of all our Christian duties and privileges, because it is the most costly in time and concentration, and because it is the least spectacular, and leaves the least room for self.
Yet if it is the most demanding, it is also the most rewarding, for it is the one thing which God Himself seeks above all else, as Jesus said "The hour cometh, and now is, when true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and in truth: for the Father seeketh such to worship Him"

Amen

Amen stephen amen. As another author says : "All too often, praise to God is something that many people leave at church, an event that happens only when they come together with other Christians. However, praise should be a part of a believers lifestyle, inter-mingled as a part of their daily prayer-life. At work, in the car, at home in bed, or anywhere; praise to the Lord brings the refreshing of the Lord’s presence, along with His power and anointing. “...I will bless the LORD at all times: his praise shall continually be in my mouth” (Psalms 34:1) ...." God inhabits in the praises of His people (Psalms 22:3).


Luk 19:37 Jesus was now approaching the descent from the Mount of Olives. The whole crowd of disciples began to rejoice and to praise God with a loud voice for all the miracles they had seen. They said, "How blessed is the king who comes in the name of the Lord! Peace in heaven, and glory in the highest heaven!"
Some of the Pharisees in the crowd said to Jesus, "Teacher, tell your disciples to be quiet."
Jesus replied, "I tell you, if they were quiet, the stones would cry out!"
When he came closer and saw the city, he began to cry over it, saying, "If you had only known today what could have brought you peace! But now it is hidden from your eyes.
