Worship the King

“Come, let us bow down in worship, let us kneel before the Lord our Maker; for he is our God and we are the people of his pasture…” (Psalm 95:6–7)

Worship is more than what we do on a Sunday morning. It’s more than songs, sermons, or set prayers. According to Psalm 95, worship is a response—a bowing down before the greatness and goodness of our King.

True worship involves reverence and joy, humility and celebration. It's not just about what we say with our lips, but what we choose with our lives.

To worship Jesus as King is to give Him first place—not just in our music, but in our motives; not just in our rituals, but in our relationships.

Every action can become worship when it’s done with a heart surrendered to Christ: how we speak to others, how we serve, how we spend our time, how we make decisions. In this sense, worship is not an event—it’s a lifestyle.

Let’s not just sing to the King. Let’s live for Him.

There’s a story of a cathedral janitor who was often seen humming hymns while sweeping the floors. One day someone asked why he always seemed joyful doing such a humble job. He said:

“I’m not just sweeping floors. I’m serving the King. Every stroke of this broom is worship.”

This is what Psalm 95 invites us into: a vision of worship that stretches far beyond the sanctuary. Even the ordinary becomes sacred when done in honour of Christ.

King Jesus, let my whole life be worship to you. May my words honour you, my thoughts reflect you, and my actions please you. Teach me to bow not just in song, but in surrender. Amen.
