1 Encountering God through Worship

2 “Worship and Praise is a thank you that can never be silenced.”

4 Make a joyful noise unto the Lord Psalm 150:1-5 (NIV): Praise the LORD. Praise God in his sanctuary; praise him in his mighty heavens. Praise him for his acts of power; praise him for his surpassing greatness. Praise him with the sounding of the trumpet, praise him with the harp and lyre, praise him with tambourine and dancing, praise him with the strings and flute, praise him with the clash of cymbals, praise him with resounding cymbals

5 Sing praises to the Lord Psalm 146:2 (NIV): I will praise the LORD all my life; I will sing praise to my God as long as I live.

6 Sing praises to the Lord Hebrews 13:15 (AMP): …Let us constantly and at all times offer up to God a sacrifice of praise….

10 2 Chronicles 20:15 “Then the Spirit of the Lord came upon Jahaziel... and he said "Listen, King Jehoshaphat and all who live in Judah and Jerusalem! This is what the LORD says to you: 'Do not be afraid or discouraged because of this vast army. For the battle is not yours, but God's. 16 Tomorrow march down against them. They will be climbing up by the Pass of Ziz, and you will find them at the end of the gorge in the Desert of Jeruel. 17 You will not have to fight this battle. Take up your positions; stand firm and see the deliverance the LORD will give you, O Judah and Jerusalem. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged. Go out to face them tomorrow, and the LORD will be with you.'"

11 ... 21 After consulting the people [calling a council of war strategy], Jehoshaphat appointed men to sing to the LORD and to praise him for the splendor of his holiness as they went out at the head of the army [the front line, before any of the soldiers], saying: "Give thanks to the LORD, for his love endures forever."

12 Jehoshaphat in 20:12 “O our God, will you not judge them? For we have no power to face this vast army that is attacking us. We do not know what to do, but our eyes are upon you.”

13 12 Now King David was told, "The LORD has blessed the household of Obed-Edom and everything he has, because of the ark of God." So David went down and brought up the ark of God from the house of Obed-Edom to the City of David with rejoicing. 13 When those who were carrying the ark of the LORD had taken six steps, he sacrificed a bull and a fattened calf. 14 David, wearing a linen ephod, danced before the LORD with all his might,

14 15 while he and the entire house of Israel brought up the ark of the LORD with shouts and the sound of trumpets. 16 As the ark of the LORD was entering the City of David, Michal daughter of Saul watched from a window. And when she saw King David leaping and dancing before the LORD, she despised him in her heart.

15 Key No 1: Desire the blessing of God that His blessing might flow through us

16 Key No 2: Don't worry about what anyone else thinks

17 "How can he debase himself by dancing and making a fool of himself before the common people. How undignified. How beneath him - and what kind of reflection does that put on me, his wife? He de-values me by his vulgar actions!"

18 verse 22: “I will celebrate before the LORD. I will become even more undignified than this, and I will be humiliated in my own eyes. But by these slave girls you spoke of, I will be held in honor.”

19 Key No 3: Worship God with all your might, and don't judge others for the ways they express their devotion.
