So what inspires worship? Is it a rhythm? Is it good news?
The Psalmists would often gush with worship at the understanding of God’s faithfulness. “Bless the Lord, O my soul, and forget none of his benefits.” (Psalm 105:2). Amen! When we count our blessings, we can’t help but worship the God of Creation, but what about when we are sick, or in debt, or battling through some heavy problem?
Worship is more than just thanking God for good things. It is recognizing who God is. God is not like us in many ways. He had no beginning and has no end. He existed before anything else was created. Does your mind understand that? The finite cannot possibly grasp the infinite. God is not a super-computer. There is no limit to his understanding. His power is complete. He is the most beautiful being. He is the most important being. His glory and majesty will cause all knees to bend in worship.
A young boy and a mature theologian were both traveling together on a train one day. The theologian said to the boy, “I will give you an apple if you can tell me where God is”. Without hesitation, the boy said to the gentleman, “Sir, I will give you a bushel of apples if you can tell me where He is not”. Important point! If we take the time to realize that this great and wonderful God is present and near to us at any given moment, we will never be without a reason to whisper, sing, or shout out our worship of Him!
