David Jeremiah Devotional 12 September 2022: Sing to the Lord

It is hard to escape the melodies and lyrics of song on earth. The tunes and words differ according to cultural traditions, and with time new genres of song replace previous ones. But the truth remains: Music is the universal language of joy, storytelling, lament, praise, and emotion.

Anything that is so universal says something about its divine origin. Indeed, in the Bible all creation is pictured as singing songs of praise to God: humans, angels, and nature. It
is no surprise that songs or singing is mentioned in two-thirds of the books of the Bible. For example, Ephesians 5:18-19: “Be filled with the Sprit, speaking to one another in psalm and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody in your heart to the Lord” The book of Psalms is considered to have been the hymnbook of Israel-150 poems
centered around the Person of God Himself.

How big of a role does music, in praise of God, play in your life? Take advantage of all the many media options available to incorporate “spiritual songs” into your day.
