Psalm 95 (NIV) 

1 Come, let us sing for joy to the Lord; 

let us shout aloud to the Rock of our salvation. 

2 Let us come before him with thanksgiving 

and extol him with music and song. 

3 For the Lord is the great God, 

the great King above all gods. 

4 In his hand are the depths of the earth, 

and the mountain peaks belong to him. 

5 The sea is his, for he made it, 

and his hands formed the dry land. 

6 Come, let us bow down in worship, 

let us kneel before the Lord our Maker; 

7 for he is our God 

and we are the people of his pasture, 

the flock under his care. 

Today, if only you would hear his voice, 

8 “Do not harden your hearts as you did at Meribah,  

as you did that day at Massah in the wilderness, 

9 where your ancestors tested me; 

they tried me, though they had seen what I did. 

10 For forty years I was angry with that generation; 

I said, ‘They are a people whose hearts go astray, 

and they have not known my ways.’ 

11 So I declared on oath in my anger, 

‘They shall never enter my rest.’” 

1. Rejoicing (1–5)

2. Reverence (6–7a)

3. Response (7b–11)

Main Idea: True worship of God demands rejoicing, reverence, and a response of faith and obedience.

Worship is not only the bending of the knee; it is also the bending of the will before our sovereign God.
