Worship is an act of religious devotion usually directed towards a deity or God. For many, worship is not about an emotion, it is more about a recognition of a God.
There are hundreds of scriptures in the Bible that speak about worship and provide guidance as to both who and how to worship. It is a Biblical mandate that we worship God and Him alone.
Worship displays and reinforces the character of the society; the traditions are passed along through the worship of the community. In this way, acts of worship sum up and reinforce the moral and cultural commitments and understandings of the community.
