Let me first just say that we're in a series of messages that we began last week

called words for worship. And what we're doing is we're considering the seven different Hebrew words

that are all translated the same in our English Bibles. They all get translated as praise because

that is what they all mean, but they're fine-tuned. They're unique expressions of praise. And so in

looking at these actual words in the Hebrew phrase and what they carry, what the idea of them

actually is, we can get a better understanding as to how to do the thing that we were born to do,

which is to honor God, to glorify God and to enjoy Him forever. We began last week for review

with a word called halal that the idea of which is sort of a clamorous praise, a foolish praise,

like a tiktok praise, where you do something stupid and you don't care because it's for a point.

in another city and another state that I hadn't actually ever been to before. And I was planning

on the plane what message I was going to give, trying to hear from God, and I asked my wife,

Halal y'all, if you weren't here last week, was how we began, with just, you know, it was kind of

a pokey in the eye if you grew up in the church of the Frozen Chosen, you know what I'm saying,

where you might be saying, but you haven't told your face yet. But I know better than argue

with my wife. She's got a better connection to heaven than I do. And so I said, okay, I'll do it.

And so I'm just going to do it. And I just, I went for it, man. I got up there and I preached,

like I said at the end, I said, we're going to make this a praise pit, like a mosh pit or
