SCRIPTURAL UNDERSTANDING:- Psalm 95:1-3 Come, let us sing to Yahuah! Let us raise a shout to the rock of our deliverance. Let us come before His face with thanks, let us raise a shout to Him in song. For Yahuah is a great Al, and a great Sovereign above all mighty ones.

Gathering together to PRAISE Yahusha is a good thing, while we are in His presence, in PRAISE, amazing things can happen.The Hebrew language shows us above, all the different ways we can come to Him and PRAISE Him, which is marvellous.

The way the church calls their worship sessions, PRAISE, we disagree with. We all know that obedience to Yahusha's word is true worship. This is a different thing to Praising Yahusha because it does not have a format and the interjection of man's emotional behaviour. Whereas true praising can be very emotional.
