Why We Need

To Praise and Worship?

We were
created for His
praise and glory
(Isaiah 43:21; Jeremiah 13:11; Ephesians
1:12; 1 Peter 2:9)
Worship brings within
us a oneness and
quietness that leads
towards submission (Psalm
46:10; 103;1; Habakuk 2:20; Zephaniah 1:7;
Zechariah 2:13)
When we offer our praise and
worship to the King and Prince
of Peace (Isaiah 9:6; Hebrews 7:2),
the river of life from the
throne of God flows carrying
the peace of God, filing us with
such a tranquillity that
transcends all understanding
(Phil. 4:17; Revelations 22:1).
Praise brings victory.

aloud of your mercy in the morning; for You
have been my defence and refuge in the day of
my trouble.

life in heaven.

unsearchable things of God through the
eyes of our understanding (1 Cor 2:9,10;

out of our heart and manifest themselves
as praise and worship, the expression our
