Worship is not an event we attend but a discipline and experience in which we participate. Worship happens as our hearts honor, adore, and give thanks to God in prayer, praise, and the other actions involved in our corporate worship (John 4:23-24). The congregation is encouraged to participate in the worship songs each Lord’s Day and to lift their hands in prayer and praise to our God. We are reminded each week of the solemn joy of coming into the presence of a holy God and offering Him our love, thanks, and praise (Psalm 100).
