'TALKING MUSIC-HOW IT ALL STARTED-PART 1'

To God be the glory, great things he hath done. So love he the world that he gave us his son.
Who yielded his life& atonement for sins& open the life-gate that all may go on.
Praise the lord...






I'm sure you were singing along_This old sweet-loving spiritual hymn is always refreshing to the soul.
So Talking Music  takes us back to the  very beginning.(There is no other beginning than God-John 1)

This also means I had to do a lot of research to get this.So heyy,be educated,enlightened &enjoy as we talk MUSIC.
These are references to Music in the bible:

*The first reference to a musician was in Gen.28:21.Jubal who was the 4th generation from Adam through Cain was called 'the father of all those who play the lyre and pipe.

* The book of Moses records 3 songs.
-In Exod.15, which was after the victory over pharaoh&his army.
At that time,  Moses' sister,Miriam led the israelites women with tambourines&dancing.
-Then, Deut. 32, a song recounting God's faithfulness before his
death.
-Lastly,a prayer song recorded in Psalm 90.

*In Joshua 6:1-20, the sound of the trumpets  broke the walls of Jericho.

*The songs of Deborah in Judges 5 beautifully captures a heart of Praise as she leads Israel to defeat the Canaanites.

*When Jephthah returned from battle,his daughter met him with timbrels& dance in Judges 11:34.

*Then to the MAIN MAN David (sweet Psalmist of Israel as described in 2 sam.23:1),official musician in Saul's  court, songwriter&...

I would have to end here...a lot in store as we continue tomorrow evening from David through to the new testament. 

Music is scattered all over through ScriptureI'm of a firm belief you'll appreciate MUSIC the more,know its place in your faith& in God's scheme of things. 

 

SO I SAY:
THE MUSIC SERIES JUST GOT STARTED...THIS IS A HALF ACCOUNT OF HOW IT ALL HAPPENED IN THE BIBLE
