What brings you to the point of worship?
Is it a singer?
Is it a preacher?
Is it other people worshiping?
All of these are not necessarily bad, but unquenchable worship only comes when you are
walking close to the one you worship.
Worship is about Trusting Him, Loving Him, Knowing Him, and Thanking Him
(Jesus Christ).
The reason we worship is Him.
* We worship Him for who He is and what He has done.
* Others may enhance our worship.
* Others may help lead us to a deeper worship.
* Real worship is first and foremost an encounter with the Living and Holy God.
Worship: Proskuneo (Greek), pros-koo-neh-o: to kiss, like a dog licking his master's hand; to crouch, prostrate oneself in homage; do reverence, to adore.
