Commitment to Christ - Worship

:: 18::  I will praise God’s name with song; I will magnify him with thanks. (Psalm 69:30)

In worship, we sing hymns and praise songs to express our faithfulness and devotion to God. The songs chosen for worship are as significant as the sermons preached and the prayers prayed. They capture important points of our theology and teaching us biblical lessons, but they also stir the soul and awaken our spirit. They help the people gain a deeper love for God.

Through singing, truth moves from the head to the heart. Christian truth should not only enable right thinking, but also right feeling. Combined, right thinking and right feeling yield right living, or a transformed life. For those committed to Christ, all dimensions of the human person are changed through discipleship, and one avenue for discipleship runs through the singing of songs.

Praise God’s name with song. Magnify your praise with thanks. And rejoice as God transforms your heart in accordance with Christ-likeness.

Jesus, help me to sing to you in such a way that my love for you is deepened. Amen.
