Today's scripture: Psalm 20:5
One
of my favorite ways to praise and worship my Lord is through song. Sometimes
the words of a favorite praise chorus or hymn say so much more than my own
words ever could. And I love when songwriters put the scriptures to music, like old
standards such as “Great is Thy Faithfulness” and newer songs like “Unchanging”
by Chris Tomlin. Both take that wonderful verse from Lamentations 3:23
and put it to music.
Someday,
all of God’s children will raise their voices as one to praise and worship our
God—face-to-face. We will joyfully sing of His victory over the enemy and sin.
We will lift our hands or fall to our knees in utter awe of His greatness.
Can
you imagine it? Millions and millions of love-filled voices. And I believe that
each of us will have heaven-touched vocal chords. This certainly isn’t found
anywhere in scripture, but I like the idea that even those who were only able
to “make a joyful shout” (Psalm 66:1) on earth will be
endowed with perfect pitch and crystal clear tone. And why not? After all, we
know there
will be no pain in heaven (Revelation 21:4)!
So
while we linger, let’s continue to praise and worship in song, knowing that
this is just the rehearsal for a mighty choir!
