Worship Quotes
God has made us for Himself that we might be delighted in Him, driven by
desire for Him, and captivated by hope of a destiny with Him. – Tricia
McCary Rhodes
Truth without emotion
produces dead orthodoxy and a church full (or half-full) of artificial
admirers (like people who write generic anniversary cards for a living).
On the other hand, emotion without truth produces empty frenzy and
cultivates shallow people who refuse the discipline of rigorous thought.
But true worship comes from people who are deeply emotional and who love
deep and sound doctrine. Strong affections for God rooted in truth are
the bone and marrow of biblical worship. – John Piper
Worship is a way of gladly
reflecting back to God the radiance of his worth. This cannot be done by
mere acts of duty. It can be done only when spontaneous affections arise
in the heart. – John Piper
Let us remember therefore
this lesson: That to worship our God sincerely we must evermore begin by
hearkening to His voice, and by giving ear to what he commands us. For if
every man goes after his own way, we shall wander. We may well run, but
we shall never be a whit nearer to the right way, but rather farther away
from it. – John Calvin
So let us hold to this rule,
that all human inventions which are set up to corrupt the simple purity of
the word of God, and to undo the worship which he demands and approves,
are true sacrileges, in which the Christian man cannot participate without
blaspheming God, and trampling his honor under foot. – John Calvin
Worship is transcendent
wonder. – Thomas Carlyle
We may be truly said to
worship God, though we lack perfection; but we cannot be said to worship
Him if we lack sincerity. – Stephen Charnock
All worship is shot wrong
that is not directed to, and conducted by, the thoughts of the power of
God, whose assistance we need. – Stephen Charnock
The perfect church service
would be one we were almost unaware of; our attention would have been on
God. – C. S. Lewis
To believe God is to worship
God. – Martin Luther
Worship services in many
churches today are like a merry-go-round. You drop a token in the
collection box; it’s good for a ride. There’s music and lots of motion up
and down. The ride is carefully timed and seldom varies in length. Lots
of good feelings are generated, and it is the one ride you can be sure
will never be the least bit threatening or challenging. But though you
spend the whole time feeling as if you’re moving forward, you get off
exactly where you got on. – John MacArthur
Unless men see a beauty and
delight in the worship of God, they will not do it willingly. – John
Owen
Worship is the highest and
noblest activity of which man, by the grace of God, is capable. – John
Stott
To worship is to quicken the
conscience by the holiness of God, to feed the mind with the truth, to
purge the imagination by the beauty of God, to open the heart to the love
of God, to devote the will to the purpose of God. – William Temple
We are saved to worship
God. All that Christ has done for us in the past and all that He is doing
now leads to this one end. - A. W. Tozer
The reading of the
Scriptures with godly fear; the sound preaching, and conscionable hearing
of the word of God, with understanding, faith, and reverence; singing of
psalms with grace in the heart; as also the due administration and worthy
receiving of the sacraments instituted by Christ; are all parts of the
ordinary worship of God. – Westminster Confession of Faith
Worship
is a response to God. It’s not something I initiate. I don’t go to
church on Sunday morning and just start worshiping. Instead, I have to
see or hear something of God, and then I respond in worship. – Michael
Card
