Table Talk Question

How does our knowledge of God affect our worship of Him?

Biblical Truth

To the extent that we know God, we will worship Him.

Context

Worship has everything to do with living out our praise to the only God who deserves it. Worship comes about as a natural response when we know who God is as Creator and Sustainer of life––eternally. Who hasn’t stood on a mountaintop, gazed across the waves of the ocean, overlooked a vast canyon, or flown over the turquoise waters surrounding a chain of islands and not wondered in awe about our Creator? Even those who do not know Him are forced to wonder at His existence. Who else could have created such wonder? When we conclude in our hearts as well as our minds that it is God, all we can do is bow down in worship of who He is.

Learning Goals
  • Learners will examine the natural response of worship when confronted with the One God.
