詩人在此呼籲大家要向造物的上帝敬拜，敬拜的方式事什麼呢？「你們要向耶和華唱新歌！全地都要向耶和華歌唱！要向耶和華歌唱，稱頌他的名！天天傳揚他的救恩！在列邦中述說他的榮耀！在萬民中述說他的奇事！」
因此我們唱詩歌不是用自己喜歡的曲調就可以，重點是歌詞的內容！不是表現自己的敬虔和熱心，而是要讓人看見上帝的榮耀！所以，不在華麗的舞台或燈光，或是任何的科技產品，而是上帝的榮光要充滿！正如詩人宣告：「有尊榮和威嚴在他面前；有能力與華美在他聖所。民中的萬族啊，你們要將榮耀、能力歸給耶和華，都歸給耶和華！」
而我們不只是外表的敬拜，更是生命的投入，特別是在禮拜之後，要行出上帝的公義，因為「因為他來了，他來要審判全地。他要按公義審判世界，按他的信實審判萬民。」
審判不只是懲罰惡人，審判更是要更新人的生命，從人的生命表現，更是展現出上帝審判所帶來的結果！耶穌基督的降生是向世界宣告，上帝已經來到人間了！祂透過十字架已經審判了世界，祂已經勝了這世界，這世界有一天要過去，上帝國必定完全實現的！
