Worship With Praise

[00:00:00] How can we use music to show praise to God? Is there a right way and a wrong way to praise?

[00:00:07] Let's discuss.

[00:00:20] This is the Walking in Step with God Podcast, and I'm Steve McDonald.

[00:01:26] our praise. So let us seek to incorporate praise into our lives as a fundamental part of our walk with Him.

[00:01:28] Of course, music with praise can be in so many forms. You can have music with singing

[00:01:35] only, music with instruments and singing, or even music that is only instruments. All

[00:01:42] of the above can be edition today and strengthen your bond with the creator. Again, that's 100StepsBook.com, 100StepsBook.com.

[00:03:03] Welcome back.

[00:03:04] Let's continue our discussion on three specific ways where there is a band playing very contemporary style music, and I've been in a setting where the congregation sings along to lyrics displayed on a screen. I believe God's presence is where there is praise, and therefore I believe God's presence is with us in whatever form of praise we use. What matters most is that many are coming before God

[00:04:21] as one to express thanks, gratitude,

[00:04:24] and love to their creator, the almighty God.

[00:05:23] when and where you shout your loudest praise. This may be a time to save your loudest praise

[00:05:27] for the comfort of your home or car.

[00:05:30] Number three, accompany your prayer with music.

[00:05:35] Did you know that there's a music genre

[00:05:37] of faith-based instrumental music?

[00:05:41] Yes, there are very talented musical artists

[00:05:44] who solely perform music with their faith the prayer experience. I don't do it all the time but sometimes it is nice to have a soft, calming, faith-based instrumental in the background as I pray. Want to try it out? Simply search for videos or your music streaming service for prayer music. Let us know what you find.

[00:07:02] Today we discuss three ways to worship God with praise. a powerful and effective way for God to see our intention to be close to Him, to thank Him, and to celebrate Him. I believe there is no single right or wrong way to praise. You may praise by singing from a hymnal, a choir, and a string quartet, or you may praise by turning up the praise music in your car and singing out loud in your holiness, Father. We pray this trusting and believing in you, amen. Are you interested in learning more about the sources guiding this message?

In this segment, we welcome people of all backgrounds,

[00:11:06] The Word of God provides guidance, direction, him with loud cymbals. Let everything that has breath and every breath of life praise the Lord. Praise the Lord. Hallelujah. This scripture clearly illustrates the nature of praise through music. We see King David expressing all the intention of praise during difficult times displays a level of devotion to God that He will certainly take notice of as He considers ways to reward the faithful. Let's take a look at one last verse.

[00:13:41] Psalm 95 verse 6 and who leads and guides your steps each and every day. Thank you for your time in reviewing these verses with me today.
