Key Verse:

“Worthy is the Lamb who was slain, to receive power and wealth and wisdom and might and honor and glory and blessing!”

— Revelation 5:12

Rooted Truth

Worship is not just for now—it’s for eternity. In Revelation 5, we’re given a breathtaking glimpse of heaven. Multitudes of angels and saints surround the throne, crying out in unison: “Worthy is the Lamb!” This is not a moment—it’s an eternal anthem.

At the center of heaven is not a crown, a cause, or even creation—it’s Christ, the Lamb who was slain. He alone is worthy of every voice, every knee, every offering of praise. And when we worship now—whether through song, surrender, or sacrifice—we are joining heaven’s chorus.

Eternal worship is not passive. It is the active delight of redeemed hearts in the presence of their Redeemer. Worship is not a temporary discipline—it’s a forever calling. And the more we fix our eyes on the Lamb, the more our hearts are prepared for the glory to come.

Faith Story

Matt Redman once said:

“In the end, worship can never be a performance—it’s either a picture of heaven or it’s not worship at all.”

He wrote “The Heart of Worship” during a season when his church stripped away music and lights to return to simple adoration. That moment redefined worship for many—because it reminded them that Jesus is the center, and heaven is our pattern.
