Not precisely.
It just makes many many references to the things that happen to people who don't.

1 Samuel 24:17, 2 Chronicles 15:7, Job 21:19, Psalms 18:20, Psalms 19:11, Psalms 31:23, Provers 11:18, 13:13, Jerimaih 31:16, Mathew 6:1, Mathew 6:5, Theres a ton more but the now becomes the real question, now that you have them. What ye seek from them must ye do to obatain them? Obatining a reward is a promise from God when we keep his commandments. God Bless You, Good Question btw.

True worship is done from the heart to give to God because He alone is worthy of our praise. We do not worship with the motive to "receive back" because just having Jesus is our Greatest Reward. Our words of praise, our outer actions of worship mean absolutely nothing to the Lord without a life that is yielded to His purpose / Word. There is no substitutes for loving the Lord outside of true obedience. When this happens, Scripture says that we are blessed with all spiritual blessings in heavenly paces ( Ephesians 1:3 ). All good things belong to a child of God and we can't begin to comprehend the blessings that God has in store for all those who are found "faithful" in the end ( 1 Corinthians 2:9 ).

Its not the worship that Jesus asking for you
He says love your neighbors as you love yourself
whatever you do good to your brother is you have already have serve God
Jesus even says that do not worship God just like the Pharisees (priest) who worship in synagogue (church) . . . .but rather go to your room and worship God to the temple of your soul (your heart) . . . because . before you open your lips. . God already know what you are praying for.
Your reward if you do good to your brother ?
harmony . . . peace . . . peace. . is this what you like
heavenly reward. .
read the Bible . . . . you see . . felt the beauty of being a Christian

Define worship? Because, worship simply isn't just singing praises to God. Its a lifestyle that glorifies Him, one that humbles youself and helps others. And yes, living a lifestyle that worships Him, does bring you blessing. It is all over the Bible...
Proverbs 22:4
Humility and the fear of the LORD
bring wealth and honor and life.
You'll find alot of encouagement within the Bible, I reccomend starting with the New Testament.

The whole New Testament is about having a relationship with God, and the reward being eternal.
The last few chapters of Revelation tell what is to come, the New Jerusalem, the life that will be when Heaven comes to earth. That would be a reward.
Lot more examples of the reward of His love. Fruit of the Spirit, the Gifts, assurance. Psalms has a treasure load more.

Um, yeah! The entire Bible tells us that faith and good deeds (following God's laws) will save our souls and we will gain eternal life in Heaven. Haven't you read the Bible yet? This is what all of GOd's words are telling us and the stories in the Bible are all showing us so.

If somebody praise God, it pleases His mind. If you do something good to somebody and if they don't respond to you means, you will feel odd. But if they thank you, you will feel good. So if you worship God He will be happy. As your creator is happy you also will automatically be happy. So worship Him in Truth and spirit. God will surely bless you.

The reward for worshipping God is eternal life, not eternity in hell. So yes, there is a reward for following God otherwise why bother. Only through Jesus can you get saved , he makes it worth living!!!
