Psalm 96:6 O come, let us worship and bow down; let us kneel before the Lord our maker.
Our response to the awesome Creation and Redemption of the Lord our Maker is to worship Him in spirit and truth at all times. Included in our life of worship is a worship life of daily private worship and weekly public worship. Our worship life feeds and informs our life of worship.
We worship God as our Creator and Redeemer by bowing down and kneeling before Him. We come before the Lord our Maker in the humble posture of submission to His Lordship, at least in our minds. We acknowledge Him to be our God in every circumstance of life, knowing that His will is good, and believing that He will use His power to show mercy and love. We don’t bow down and kneel just because He is stronger than we, but because He is gracious, kind, loving, and merciful. Therefore, our response is willing submission to a good God.
