The Height of Irreverance?

  • Aug 5, 2008

  • I recently returned from the WorshipGod '08 conference in Gaithersburg, MD (Washington DC area). Sorry there's not much going on in the picture but at least it's proof I was there.

    The focus of the conference was the Psalms in worship. The worship times were rich and the messages and seminars for the most part were helpful and refreshing. I imagine as I continue to process the things from that trip, those thoughts will leak into my blog posts. If you want to hear some of the messages firsthand you can visit the Sovereign Grace website and download messages. You can also sample much of the music we sang during the conference by visiting the WG08 site.

    Here's your thought for today from conference speaker Craig Cabaniss from his message on Psalm 33.
    "Reverant worship is ultimately about responding to God in a way that He has prescribed He be worshipped, because reverance ultimately has to do with obedience... It is perhaps the height of irreverance for me to approach God and say 'God, I will worship you in a way that is pleasing to me. ' "(i.e. to worship Him only in ways that are comfortable for me due to culture, background, preference, etc.).

    Did Craig Cabaniss further expound on the "way that God has prescribed He be worshipped?"
