· “Praise to God is the most unselfish act that a human being can perform, especially when they are experiencing various kinds of pain and upset. There is a sentence used in the Bible that describes the highest form of praise to God. It is an honor that was granted to the Levites and the Sons of Zadok (who were priests), and that honor was to “minister to the Lord.” To minister to the Lord means, “to bless God, to congratulate Him, to honor Him for who He is, His eternal covenant and to bring gifts to Him.” It’s all about giving to God, not receiving, and once this takes place, God always responds with blessings upon His people.” - Kim Clement

· "Worship changes the worshiper into the image of the One worshiped" -Jack Hayford
·"As John 4:23 says, Its time, as worshipers of God, to give him all we have. For when he is exalted, everything about me is decreased. So many times we stand in the way of really stepping into the secret place of worship with God. Just abandon tradition and the "expected" ways of Praise & Worship and get lost in the holy of holies with the sole intention of blessing the Fathers heart."-Jessica Leah Springer
·“When I worship, I would rather my heart be without words than my words be without heart.” -Lamar Boschman

·“Our entire being is fashioned as an instrument of praise. Just as a master violin maker designs an instrument to produce maximum aesthetic results, so God tailor-made our bodies, souls and spirits to work together in consonance to produce pleasing expressions of praise and worship.

·“Praise is Fitting for the Upright” - Psalm 33:1b

Rowley ("Worship in Ancient Israel" p. 257)
·"It is in the process of being worshipped that God communicates His presence to men." -C.S. Lewis
