John Piper Worship Quotations

Neither Muslims nor anyone else truly worships the true God if they reject Jesus as he really is in the Gospels.

God wills to be displayed and known and loved and cherished and worshiped.

There will be no passion to draw others into our worship where there is no passion for worship.

Do you feel more loved when God makes much of you or do you feel more loved when God at the cost of His Son allows you to make much of Him?

We belittle God when we go through the outward motions of worship and take no pleasure in His person.

Worship is basically adoration, and we adore only what delights us. There is no such thing as sad adoration or unhappy praise.

The gospel of God and the love of God are expressed finally and fully in God's gift of himself for our everlasting pleasure. "In your presence there is fullness of joy; at your right hand are pleasures forevermore."

Where feelings for God are dead, worship is dead.

It is unbiblical and arrogant to try to worship God for any other reason than the pleasure to be had in Him.

The immensity of His worth is reflected in the intensity of your worship,

Mission exists because worship doesn't.

Worship is ultimate, not missions. Because God is ultimate, not man.

Our lives become trivial. And our capacity for magnificent causes and great worship dies.
