Worship That Counts: The Expressions Of Worship, Pt. 3 (4 Of 5)
Dr. Ernest L. Easley
Hebrews 13.12-15
Now join me for a few minutes in the book of Hebrews. We've been learning together on these Sunday mornings how to make our worship count! We've learned that the Old Testament Hebrew word translated ''worship'' means ''to bow.''
The New Testament Greek word translated ''worship'' means ''to kiss towards.'' In speaks of expressing what you think and how you feel about God!
And then the old English word for ''worship'' can be translated ''worth-ship.'' In other words .. we praise and honor God because He is worth it!
He not only demands our worship, He not only delights in our worship, but He deserves our worship! Revelation 4.11 is a picture of worship, ''You are worthy, O Lord, to receive glory and honor and power; For You created all things, And by Your will they exist and were created.''

Worship becomes dynamic as worshippers have the freedom to ''clap unto the Lord'' when their moved to clap!
Worship becomes a platform for introducing people to Jesus when worshippers express what they think about God and how they feel about God through their ''singing unto the Lord.'' For the Psalmist declares in Psalm 40.3, ''He has put a new song in my mouth: Praise to our God; Many will see it and fear, and will trust in the Lord.''
How wonderful, how thrilling to know that those lacking a relationship with the Lord can see us singing unto the Lord .. and that ''many will see it and fear, and will trust in the Lord.''
Now look if you will to one of the great worship passages in ...
