Words for Worship: 7 Days to Bringing God Your Best Praise

DAY 3 OF 7

SHABACH

In the Bible, seven Hebrew words translate as 'worship' in English. Today, we're examining the word SHABACH.

SHABACH means 'to shout or commend praise in a loud tone.’

SHABACH is used 11x in Scripture and audibly reflects the culmination of one’s testimony through a shout of praise.

Picture yourself at the airport, waiting to pick up a family member you haven’t seen for a while. You wait patiently at the arrival gate and scan every face that exits the terminal. Seconds start to feel like minutes, and minutes start to feel like hours. Then suddenly, you see your loved one, and you can’t help but shout out their name and joyously express your excitement.

The natural overflow of one’s heart often manifests through verbal triumph. In Scripture, the Psalms often describe the vast wonders of the Lord and encourage all of creation to shout to God with cries of joy.

SHABACH: A praise so joyous we have no choice but to shout out in triumph.
