Psalm 66:1-5, 16-20

1. Shout with joy to God, all the earth!
2. Sing the glory of his name; make his praise glorious!
3. Say to God, "How awesome are your deeds! So great is your power that your enemies cringe before you.
4. All the earth bows down to you; they sing praise to you, they sing praise to your name." Selah
5. Come and see what God has done, how awesome his works in man's behalf!

16. Come and listen, all you who fear God; let me tell you what he has done for me.
17. I cried out to him with my mouth; his praise was on my tongue.
18. If I had cherished sin in my heart, the Lord would not have listened;
19. but God has surely listened and heard my voice in prayer.
20. Praise be to God, who has not rejected my prayer or withheld his love from me!

John 4:19-24

19. "Sir," the woman said, "I can see that you are a prophet.
20. Our fathers worshiped on this mountain, but you Jews claim that the place where we must worship is in Jerusalem."
21. Jesus declared, "Believe me, woman, a time is coming when you will worship the Father neither on this mountain nor in Jerusalem.
22. You Samaritans worship what you do not know; we worship what we do know, for salvation is from the Jews.
23. Yet a time is coming and has now come when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and truth, for they are the kind of worshipers the Father seeks.
24. God is spirit, and his worshipers must worship in spirit and in truth."

Revelation 5:11-14

11. Then I looked and heard the voice of many angels, numbering thousands upon thousands, and ten thousand times ten thousand. They encircled the throne and the living creatures and the elders.
12. In a loud voice they sang: "Worthy is the Lamb, who was slain, to receive power and wealth and wisdom and strength and honor and glory and praise!"
13. Then I heard every creature in heaven and on earth and under the earth and on the sea, and all that is in them, singing: "To him who sits on the throne and to the Lamb be praise and honor and glory and power, for ever and ever!"
14. The four living creatures said, "Amen," and the elders fell down and worshiped.
