How many different types of worship toward God are there (e.g. music, prayer, singing, etc.)?
(Submitted by: Kirk) A. The first consideration of worship toward God is our attitude. Jesus told the woman at the well as recorded in John 4:24 : “God is spirit and those who worship Him must worship in spirit and in truth.” (NKJV translation throughout). We also must realize that we are “commanded” to worship God. Many scriptures verify this: Genesis 35:1, Exodus 15:1, 1Chronicles 16:29, Haggai 1:8, Mark 1:44 among several others. I found seven types of worship in scripture. They are: • Praise and Thanksgiving by grateful declaration, public or private. This includes prayer. One example of this is Hebrews 13:15 : “Therefore by Him let us continually offer the sacrifice of praise to God, that is, the fruit of our lips, giving thanks to His name.” Another example is John Chapter 17 where Jesus prays for Himself, His disciples and for all sinners.
