Our Sacrifice of Praise
3

• Therefore Jesus also, that He might sanctify the
  people through His own blood, suffered outside
  the gate. So, let us go out to Him outside the
  camp, bearing His reproach. For here we do not
  have a lasting city, but we are seeking the city
  which is to come. Through Him then, let us
  continually offer up a sacrifice of praise to
  God, that is, the fruit of lips that give thanks
  to His name.
• Hebrews 1312-15

4
Now consider this, you who forget God, Or I will
tear you in pieces, and there will be none to
deliver. He who offers a sacrifice of
thanksgiving honors Me And to him who orders
his way aright I shall show the salvation of
God. Psalms 5022-23
5
All the people perceived the thunder and the
lightning flashes and the sound of the trumpet
and the mountain smoking and when the people saw
it, they trembled and stood at a distance. Then
they said to Moses, Speak to us yourself and we
will listen but let not God speak to us, or we
will die. Exodus 2018-19
6
Therefore, since we receive a kingdom which
cannot be shaken, let us show gratitude, by which
we may offer to God an acceptable service with
reverence and awe for our God is a consuming
fire. Hebrews 1228-29
7
The LORD, the LORD God, compassionate and
gracious, slow to anger, and abounding in
lovingkindness and truth who keeps
lovingkindness for thousands, who forgives
iniquity, transgression and sin yet He will by
no means leave the guilty unpunished, visiting
the iniquity of fathers on the children and on
the grandchildren to the third and fourth
generations. Moses made haste to bow low toward
the earth and worship. Exodus 345-8
8
Let Your Words Be Few
Guard your steps as you go to the house of God
and draw near to listen rather than to offer the
sacrifice of fools for they do not know they are
doing evil. Do not be hasty in word or impulsive
in thought to bring up a matter in the presence
of God. For God is in heaven and you are on the
earth therefore let your words be
few. Ecclesiastes 51-2

Singing Is A Sacrifice
To You I shall offer a sacrifice of
thanksgiving, And call upon the name of the
LORD. Psalms 11617
10
Singing Is A Sacrifice
I will praise the name of God with song And
magnify Him with thanksgiving. And it
will please the LORD better than an ox or a
young bull with horns and hoofs. Psalms
6930-31

Singing Is A Sacrifice
I will not offer burnt offerings to the LORD my
God which cost me nothing. 2 Samuel 2424

Unacceptable Worship
Oh that there were one among you who would shut
the gates, that you might not uselessly kindle
fire on My altar! I am not pleased with you,
says the LORD of hosts, nor will I accept an
offering from you. Malachi 110
15
Unacceptable Worship
This people honors Me with their lips, but their
heart is far away from Me. But in vain do they
worship Me, teaching as doctrines the precepts of
men. Matthew 158-9
16
Acceptable Worship
Has the LORD as much delight in burnt offerings
and sacrifices as in obeying the voice of the
LORD? Behold, to obey is better than sacrifice,
and to heed than the fat of rams. 1 Samuel 1522
17
Acceptable Worship
For You do not delight in sacrifice, otherwise I
would give it You are not pleased with burnt
offering. The sacrifices of God are a broken
spirit A broken and a contrite heart, O God, You
will not despise. Psalms 5116-17

The Assembly Has ADivine Purpose
Let us hold fast the confession of our hope
without wavering, for He who promised is
faithful and let us consider how to stimulate
one another to love and good deeds, not forsaking
our own assembling together, as is the habit of
some, but encouraging one another and all the
more as you see the day drawing near. Hebrews
1023-25
19
Ascribe to the LORD the glory due His
name Bring an offering, and come before
Him Worship the LORD in holy array. Tremble
before Him, all the earth. 1 Chronicles 1629-30

• Through Him then, let us continually offer up a
  sacrifice of praise to God, that is, the fruit of
  lips that give thanks to His name.
• Hebrews 1315

Attitudes about Worship

• So David arose from the ground, washed, anointed
  himself, and changed his clothes and he came
  into the house of the LORD and worshiped. Then he
  came to his own house, and when he requested,
  they set food before him and he ate.
• 2 Samuel 1220
