Worship
The English word worship connotes acknowledgement of worthiness. The church gives praise to the God who is worthy, and brings the congregation in unison to express fear, faith, love, joy, confidence, awe and a wide range of other expression we have in our relationship with God.
The first chronological evidence of worship in the Bible was when Miriam gave thanks and praise to God for saving the Israelites from the hands of Pharaoh and swallowed the army of Egypt whole after they crossed the parted Red Sea. The reason of our praise to the Lord comes from the depths of our heart when experiencing the power of cross that brought forth our salvation, and fallen into His the eternal embrace.
We are reminded of our intimate relationship with God in our worship and prayer. We declare both publicly and privately to confirm the work of Jesus Christ in our lives.
Sing joyfully to the Lord, you righteous; it is fitting for the upright to praise him. Praise the Lord with the harp; make music to him on the ten-stringed lyre. Sing to him a new song; play skillfully, and shout for joy. (Psalm 33:1-3)
Jesus secured a line of safety for us to reach God
Hebrews 2:9-11 (NIV) But we see Jesus, who was made a little lower than the angels, now crowned with glory and honor because he suffered death so that by the grace of God he might taste death for everyone. In bringing many sons to glory, it was fitting that God, for whom and through whom everything exists, should make the author of their salvation perfect through suffering. Both the one who makes men holy and those who are made holy are of the same family. So Jesus is not ashamed to call them brothers. Jesus humbled
