Music is a heavenly thing in its essence, a part of creation that reflects and proceeds from the very heart and personality of God Himself. This makes music prophetic in nature. Our Father loves music. He is a singing God (Zeph. 3:17). He has a powerful and majestic voice (Ps. 29).
Jesus the Son composed the song of all songs that will be eternally fresh-the “song of the Lamb” (Rev. 15:3-4). The Holy Spirit inspires songs and melodies. There is a whole book of them in the Bible-the Book of Psalms. Music has always provided a means of communion and connection between God and His creatures above and below.
Spirit-filled Christians are to occupy themselves with singing psalms, hymns, and spiritual songs, singing and making melodies in their hearts to the Lord (Eph. 5:19). Music has intrinsic power to move the inner affections and the outer actions of people.
{ PRAYER STARTER }
Inspire me, Holy Spirit, to sing psalms, hymns, and spiritual songs to You, allowing my life to be a melodious symphony of praise for Your goodness to me.
The Holy Spirit inspires songs and melodies.
