We place a high priority on worship, for we know that the Bible instructs us to praise God and often! In fact the New International Version of the English Bible uses the term "praise", or a variation of it, 420 times in 361 verses. For comparison "worry" is mentioned 13 times in 12 verses, "complain" and its variations are only mentioned 19 times in 19 verses, and "sadness" is only mentioned once. So let's take our cue from God's Holy Word and praise the Lord! Won't you join us and allow God, through the rich experience of praise, to minister to you by changing your life and enabling you to encourage and care for each other as all of us put our faith into action.
The Best Times Of The Day To Praise Are:

Evening, morning and noon I cry out in distress, and he hears my voice. ~ Psalm 55.17
16 Be joyful always; 17 pray continually; 18 give thanks in all circumstances, for this is God's will for you in Christ Jesus. ~ 1 Thessalonians 5.16-18
On my bed I remember you; I think of you through the watches of the night. ~ Psalm 63.6

"15 Let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts, since as members of one body you were called to peace. And be thankful. 16 Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly as you teach and admonish one another with all wisdom, and as you sing psalms, hymns and spiritual songs with gratitude in your hearts to God. 17 And whatever you do, whether in word or deed, do it all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through him." -- Colossians 3.15-17
