Songs & Seasons

Our world is inundated with songs! Song’s of hope, faith, heartbreak, rebellion, sin and confusion. The power of a song can transform ways of thinking and living. Many of life's major moments can be drenched in the aroma of a song that was present in that season. A song can be powerful! We must also realize that God loves song’s, He gave us this creative expression for the purpose of communicating life in beautiful melodies. In fact, Zephaniah 3:17 says…”He will rejoice over you with joyful songs.”  Many different songs can exalt either good or bad, however, we as the church have been instructed to use songs for the purpose of worship, encouragement, love and joy. We're also encouraged to use our songs to communicate the realities of life, loss and fear (as David did), and to encourage and strengthen each other, but more importantly, to give our gratitude and worship to our Creator. Our songs need to be filled with victory, hope and expectancy, knowing that God is our Strong Tower! Psalm 96 says... "Sing to the Lord a new song; Sing to the Lord, all the earth. Sing to the Lord, bless His name. Proclaim good tidings of His salvation from day to day". 

We are all singing something. There are songs resonating in all of us! So my question is this... "What songs are you singing today?" Are you singing songs of defeat and sorrow? Or are you singing songs of life and hope?

Let me encourage you...

Remain in the place of intimacy with God. That is the place where God will exchange your song of defeat and sorry with His songs of life and joy. Sing a prophetic song that speaks of God's destiny for you, and let that song be filled with melodies that exalt Jesus while promoting hope and trust in God.  

Lastly, Sing songs to others that encourage, strengthen and push them into greatness. You are an overcomer, you are victorious, you are redeemed, you are loved!! This is your new SONG today!
