Louvor e adoração
O louvor e a adoração são o propósito supremo da vida cristã. A Bíblia está repleta de exortações a louvar o Senhor — com cânticos, instrumentos, danças e com todo o nosso ser.
Louvai ao Senhor!
Todo ser que respira louve ao Senhor! O louvor é o sacrifício agradável que oferecemos continuamente a Deus.
15 Therefore through Him let us continually offer up a sacrifice of praise to God, that is, the fruit of our lips, confessing to His name.

A grandeza de Deus
Grande é o Senhor e mui digno de louvor! Sua grandeza é insondável. Os céus declaram sua glória e toda a criação o adora.
Cânticos e instrumentos
Cantai ao Senhor um cântico novo! Louvai com salmos, hinos e cânticos espirituais, fazendo melodia no coração ao Senhor.

Gratidão e louvor
Em tudo dai graças. O louvor nasce da gratidão por quem Deus é e pelo que Ele faz. Cada bênção é motivo de adoração.
A majestade do Rei
Ao nome de Jesus todo joelho se dobrará. A adoração culminará na eternidade, onde os redimidos louvarão ao Cordeiro para sempre.
