Worship Is Giving God His Due
Commentators agree that the essence of worship is to "ascribe unto Jehovah the glory due unto his name." This means recognizing and declaring God's inherent worth, character, and power. It is an act of giving God the honor that is properly His, not based on our feelings, but on His unchanging nature and mighty works.
