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

DAY 6 OF 7

TEHILAH

Seven Hebrew words in the Bible translate as 'worship' in English. Today, we're examining the word TEHILAH.

TEHILAH means ’to sing a song of praise.’

TEHILAH is used 57x times in Scripture and primarily describes the singing of God’s glory in a corporate setting.

Picture yourself at a sporting event. You get there early, grab a big bag of popcorn, and find your seat up in the nosebleeds. Your eyes scan the sea of people filling the stadium. Moments before the game begins, someone takes the field and sings the national anthem. Everyone stands and joins voices to remember the heritage and glory of their great nation. The game begins with a sense of unity and patriotism.

There is something special about a group of people publicly singing in unison. In Scripture, this is seen in Exodus, when Miriam led a song of praise with the Israelites as God graciously delivered them from slavery.

TEHILAH: Corporate songs of praise for the glory and renown of God.
