Extremely Helpful Praise and Worship Quotes

•  “Praise to God is the most unselfish act that a human being can perform, especially when they are experiencing various kinds of pain and upset. There is a sentence used in the Bible that describes the highest form of praise to God. It is an honor that was granted to the Levites and the Sons of Zadok (who were priests), and that honor was to minister to the Lord. To minister to the Lord means, to bless God, to congratulate Him, to honor Him for who He is, His eternal covenant and to being gifts to Him. It's all about giving to God not receiving and once this takes place, God always responds with blessings upon His people.” - Kim Clement

•  “The way we respond to criticism pretty much depends on the way we respond to praise. If praise humbles us, then criticism will build us up. But if praise inflates us, then criticism will crush us; and both responses lead to our defeat.”- Warren W. Wiersbe

•  "When God's people begin to praise and worship Him using the Biblical methods He gives, the Power of His presence comes among His people in an even greater measure." - Graham Truscott 

•  “Worship is a way of seeing the world in the light of God.” - Abraham Joshua Heschel

•  “Self-esteem is so delicate a flower that praise tends to make it bloom, while discouragement often nips it in the bud.”- Alex F. Osborn

•  “Worship is giving God the best that He has given you. Be careful what you do with the best you have. Whenever you get a blessing from God, give it back to Him as a love gift. Take time to meditate before God and offer the blessing back to Him in a deliberate act of worship. If you hoard a thing of blessing for yourself, it will turn into spiritual dry rot, as the mama did when it was hoarded [Exodus 16]. God will never let you hold a spiritual thing for yourself, it has to be given back to Him that He may make it a blessing to others.” – Oswald Chambers

•  “Flattery is undeserved praise, and is usually general in nature. For example, when Grandma comes over and says, "Son, you are so handsome and smart, too," that is flattery. Praise, on the other hand, is specific and well-deserved positive reinforcement. "Mark, I really like the way you kept your room clean all day today." Respect and praise support children's growing sense of themselves and encourages positive behaviors.” – Nancy Golden

•  “Claiming for ourselves liberty of conscience, liberty to worship, we shall see to it that every other individual enjoys the same right.” - James Larkin

•  “An authentic life is the most personal form of worship. Everyday life has become my prayer.” - Sarah Ban Breathnach

•  “According to my principles, every master has his true and certain value. Praise and criticism cannot change any of that. Only the work itself praises and criticizes the master, and therefore I leave to everyone his own value. “- Carl Philipp Emanuel Bach
