Psalm 95: What Does it Mean to Worship? || Ps. Courtney Lush

In Psalm 95, we’re invited into more than a song — we’re invited into a posture. Ps. Courtney unpacks how this psalm calls us to joyful, wholehearted worship that flows from a clear vision of who God is. When we truly see His greatness, worship is no longer routine or familiar — it becomes filled with wonder, reverence, and awe. But when worship loses that wonder, it can quietly become detached, mechanical, and hollow. “Let us bow down in worship, let us kneel before the Lord our Maker; for He is our God.” - Psalm 95:6–7 These physical postures aren’t symbolic extras — they reveal deep spiritual realities. Bowing and kneeling reflect humility, surrender and the recognition that we belong to Him. Worship is not just something we sing; it’s something we embody. The psalm then shifts from praise to warning, reminding us that true worship is not only expressed with our lips, but with responsive hearts. The invitation is clear: don’t harden your heart to the God you are praising. This message invites us to rediscover worship that is shaped by wonder, marked by humility, and lived with soft, responsive hearts before our Maker.
