Ok now that we have the importance of our hearts down. Let‘s
explore the entities of Praise and Worship individually, and how we
can Praise and worship in a manner that brings honor to God.
When discussing the difference between praise and worship we
shouldn‘t assume that praise is exclusively one thing and worship is
another. If anything, praise seems to lead to the baseline of
worship. When we praise God for what He has done, this leads to
praising Him for who He is. So there is a very important relationship
with praise and worship, however we should also understand the
differences and focus points of each one.
Praise is simply lavishing encouragement upon someone for what
they have accomplished, it means to boast or rave about, to
comment, to speak well of someone.
