Our ninth word for worship is Strong's Number G4352, or Greek word proskyneÅ.
It is a verb that is used to mean to worship.
So this worship word is associated with reverently kissing a hand, falling on one's knees and bowing forward as a sign of extreme reverence, or kneeling or prostrating oneself in order to express respect or make a request. It also refers to the homage and honor show to those of higher rank.
In churches today, we don't often kneel, bow, or otherwise prostrate ourselves. Yet, what might our worship be like if we did this?
Challenge of the Week: Imagine yourself approaching God, then acutally and literally, kneel, bow, or prostrate yourself before Him. Journal about the experience.
