  1. Psa.89:7– “God is greatly to be feared in the assembly of the saints, and to be had in reverence of all them that are about him.” Psa.33:8– “Let all the earth fear Jehovah: Let all the inhabitants of the world stand in awe of him.” “Lit., to turn in (i.e., upon oneself), to put to shame, denotes ... to feel respect for, to show deference to, to reverence” – Vine “The idea is that of the ‘self-valuation of inferiority,’ and so sets forth an attitude toward another of doing him honor” – ISBE

  2. God is the Creator - we are the Creature Psa.100:3– “Know ye that Jehovah, he is God: It is he that hath made us, and we are his; We are his people, and the sheep of his pasture.” Rom.1:25– “for that they exchanged the truth of God for a lie, and worshipped and served the creature rather than the Creator, who is blessed for ever. Amen.” Many esteem themselves too highly Rom.12:3; 1 Pet.5:5

  3. Holy and Reverend is His Name Psa.111:9– “He hath sent redemption unto his people; He hath commanded his covenant for ever: Holy and reverend is his name.” Ex.20:7– “Thou shalt not take the name of Jehovah thy God in vain; for Jehovah will not hold him guiltless that taketh his name in vain.” Matt.6:9– “After this manner therefore pray ye. Our Father who art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name.”

  4. Fear and Respect is Due Him Prov.1:7– “The fear of Jehovah is the beginning of knowledge…” Eccl.12:13– “This is the end of the matter; all hath been heard: fear God, and keep his commandments; for this is the whole duty of man.” Lk.1:49,50– “49 For he that is mighty hath done to me great things; And holy is his name. 50 And his mercy is unto generations and generations On them that fear him.”

  5. Worship and Devotion Belong to Him He is worthy of our worship since He is the Almighty Ps.33:6-9; Job 37:5 No other is worthy of worship: neither men nor angels Acts 10:25,26; Rev.22:8,9 He demands we worship Him and no other Ex.34:14; Ps.96:8,9; 95:6,7; 99:9 We must worship in spirit and in truth Jn.4:24 We are to worship w/sincerity, reverence & meditation Ps.122:1; Heb.12:28,29 “Courtesy or reverence paid to worth; hence, honor; respect ... To perform acts of homage or adoration; esp. to perform religious service” – Webster “1 to make obeisance, do reverence to… It is used of an act of homage or reverence … 2 to revere, stressing the feeling of awe or devotion” – Vine

  6. Things Which Destroy Reverence Being unprepared for worship Mk.15:42; Ex.16:5,22-24 Our mind on other things 1 Cor.14:40; 2 Chron.30:18,19; Ezra 7:10 Inappropriate clothing Disturbances before or during the service
