Psalm 33: 1-3

 

Psalm 33:3
Rejoice in The LORD, O righteous ones; it is fitting for the upright to praise Him. 

Philippians 4:4
Rejoice in the Lord always. I will say it again: Rejoice!

Psalm 5:11
But let all who take refuge in You rejoice; let them ever shout for joy. May You shelter them, that those who love Your name may rejoice in You. 

Psalm 32:11
Be glad in the LORD and rejoice, O righteous ones; shout for joy, all you upright in heart. 


Psalm 33:2
Praise The LORD with the harp;
Make music to Him with ten strings.

Psalm 43:4
Then I will go to the altar of God, to God, my greatest joy. I will praise You with the harp, O God, my God.

I love the sound of the harp. It flows over me like a waterfall of melody.







Psalm 33:3
Sing to Him a new song: Play skillfully with a shout of joy.

Psalm 40:3
He put a new song in my mouth, a hymn of praise to our God. Many will see and fear and put their trust in The LORD.

Psalm 98:4
Make a joyful noise to the LORD, all the earth; break forth--let your cry ring out, and sing praises! 

The word 'praise' is used quite a few hundred times in The Holy Bible and can be translated at least seven different ways. 
Sometimes the word 'praise' means to sing (halal), kneel (barak); yadah (to throw your hands out in front of you or to raise hands/arms), zamar (make music), shabach (shout); towdah (choir of singers); tehillah (hymn or song). 
When we let The Spirit lead us in studying God's Word, we allow Him to teach us how to worship God the way God wants us to worship Him.
