Words for Worship: 7 Days to Bringing God Your Best Praise

DAY 5 OF 7

ZAMAR

In the Bible, seven Hebrew words translate as 'worship' in English. Today, we're examining the word ZAMAR.

ZAMAR means 'to worship God with musical song.'

ZAMAR is used 54 times in Scripture, underscoring the power present in praising God through songs played and sung alone or together with other Christ followers.

Picture yourself at a concert for your favorite band. The place is packed full of their biggest fans. You've been enjoying their set deeply. Then, all of a sudden, they launch into their hit song. The melody is so catchy, and the words so meaningful that the room erupts into thousands of voices singing out one song, causing goosebumps to rise on your arms.

Music and song carry an undeniable energy. In Scripture, an iconic example is King David playing the harp for King Saul, which caused a deep peace and comfort to flood over Saul and calm his soul.

ZAMAR: A praise of instruments and song that sounds beautiful to us and to our God.
