info_outlineWe know we're supposed to worship God, but sometimes it's a challenge. Today we look at Psalm 150 and talk about several key principles to worshiping our Lord in spirit and truth. Join us!
DISCUSSION AND STUDY QUESTIONS:
1. The podcast began by citing John 4:23 & 24 where Jesus said, “But an hour is coming, and now is, when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and truth; for such people the Father seeks to be His worshipers. God is spirit, and those who worship Him must worship in spirit and truth.” What does it mean to worship God in our spirit according to Hid truth? Since this is what God seeks, would you say that a worshipful attitude characterizes you and your life?
2. The podcast mentioned that the word “praise” has a wide range of meaning that can be boiled down to admiration and speaking well of someone. This word “praise” occurs in every verse for a total of 13 times in 6 verses. What does this tell you about the importance of you personally speaking well of God to Him? How is this principle reflected in your private worship? How about your worship with your church community?
3. Keeping with the idea of “praise” meaning to speak well of the Lord, how is that principle demonstrated in verse 2? What are we to speak well about with God in this verse? How about taking a moment to reflect on “mighty deeds” that God has done (either in your life, the Bible, etc)? How is God “excellently great”?
4. The podcast mentioned that it’s important that we praise God in truth about things that are true about Him. Why is truth so important? How would a person’s praise be limited by not knowing truth about God or for praising Him for things that are not true about Him?
5. Verses 3 – 5 talk about praising God with various instruments. Do you know how to play any of these (or their modern equivalents)? Are you using that skill to worship God? How does putting praise to music deepen our connection with what we’re celebrating about God?
6. Have you ever arrived at church, or some other setting where God’s people were worshiping Him, and you didn’t arrive with a heart of praise? Does verse 6 give wiggle room for that kind of thinking? How might a person, who’s having an off day, bring their spirit around to worshipping God?
7. Finally, the last couple of key chapter episodes have focused on worship. Why is this instruction necessary? Is praise and worship automatic? Why or why not?
8. In light of the priority of worship in God’s Word, how might you increase the priority of praise and worship in your own life?
