God did not create us because He was lonely; rather, He created us so that He might have our Lordship, our fellowship, our stewardship, and our worship.
We have taken a peak at some of the great worship scenes of the Bible, from Abraham's worship service atop Mt. Moriah to Enoch's worship service that lasted 365 years to Job's worship service that was interrupted by tragedy to Isaiah's worship service that happened at church.
