TALKING MUSIC (HOW IT ALL STARTED-PART 2)

'The Lord is mighty, in my heart, my Lord Jesus is king, over all the nations. We glorify your name...'

 

Yeah continuing singing... We continue the Music Series right from where we left off yesterday.

From the old testament, one person music can be equated to is DAVID. 

*Main man David is described in 2 Sam. 23:1 as the sweet psalmist of israel.
He is credited with writing most of the songs recorded as psalms in the Bible.

He was the official musician in saul's court since known for
playing harp which drove the evil spirit away.(1sam.16:14-)

During David’s reign, he organized the Levitical musicians.

More so, 1 Chron. 15:16 & 23:5 record that more than 1 in10 Levites in the temple were musicians.

* Other musicians include:
-Asaph(12 Psalms),
sons of Korah(10 Psalms),Heman&Ethan(1 Psalm each)

-Solomon(2 psalms, Ecclestiastes&Songs of Solomon,1005
other songs as affirmed in 1kings 4:32.)

In the New Testament,
* 2 Gospels mention that Jesus&his disciples sang a
hymn in the last supper. (Matt.26:30, Mark 14:26)

* Through Prayer& Music, Paul& Silas got the prison doors shaken & eventually got their freedom. 

*Paul again tells us of an important role of  Music in Col.3:16& Eph.5:19 which aids us in  living a Spirit-led life. 

*Music is used as a period of mourning& celebration(Matt.9:23& luke 15:25, Janes 5:13),Coronations,(1Kings1:39-),events in royal court(Eccl.2:8)

In all, it is important we remind ourselves music originated right from Heaven with our perpetual adversary the devil in-charge

As the 24 elders worships God forever.
this is what we'll do.We'll live in eternal praise,adoration,peace,love& joy.

SO I SAY:
THIS IS THE  MUSIC SERIES-AN ACCOUNT OF HOW IT ALL HAPPENED FROM SOURCE.
(SEE YOU NEXT WEEK FOR MORE)
