Worship that pleases God

Adrian Warnock provides, from Sam Storms [and Psalms], "10 guidelines for the kind of worship that pleases God":

1. Worship that pleases God is perpetual and constant (Psalm 92:2)
2. Worship that pleases God is instrumental (Psalm 150:1-6)
3. Clearly God delights in joyful worship (Psalm 92:4)
4. Worship that pleases God is grounded in the recognition and celebration of his greatness (Psalm 92:5)
5. Worship that pleases God is both loud and logical . . . Note well that worship here [in the Psalms] entails noisy songs.
6. Worship that pleases God is physical (Psalm 95:6)
7. Worship that pleases God is fresh and creative. (Psalm 33:3, Psalm 40:3, Psalm 96:1, Psalm 98:1, Psalm 144:9, Psalm 149:1)
8. Worship that pleases God is public. (Psalm 96:3)
9. Worship that pleases God ascribes glory to his name.
10. God is especially honored when the whole of creation joins in celebrating his goodness and greatness. (Psalm 96:11-13a).
