David Jeffries, giving the album four stars from AllMusic, states, "with the live set running just under 80 minutes with every epic allowed plenty of room to stretch, this is Elevation's best to date, winning in both the categories of quality and quantity."[1] Awarding the album three stars at Worship Leader, Jeremy Armstrong, describes, "the most consistent, high quality, congregational music in the American sonic landscape."[4] Dawn Teresa, rating the album three and a half stars by New Release Today, says, "With Only King Forever, Elevation Worship presents a packed-full record...Elevation Worship ultimately falls just short of lifting off."[3] Indicating in a four and a half star review by Louder Than the Music, Jono Davies writes, "most importantly, this release leads you to Jesus."[2]

gollark: It was brought on as a worm on USBs somehow.
gollark: Stuxnet wasn't done remotely. They chained together a ridiculous number of zero days to attack the computers the centrifuges were physically connected to and the PLCs.
gollark: It might be fun to use it to generate *maximally* right/left-wing text.
gollark: I would assume that would be a fairly easy machine learning classifier thingy, at least if you had enough text of known wingness to train it on.
gollark: I'm sure *someone* will end up buying it anyway.
