Sing!


Ephesians 5:18-20
"And do not get drunk with wine, for that is dissipation, but be filled with the Spirit,
Speaking to one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, 
singing and making melody in your heart to the Lord;
Always giving thanks for all things in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ to God, even the Father;
and be subject to one another in the fear of Christ."

What sweetness!  I love to sing.  I love to sing to my Saviour and about my Saviour.
I love to sing to other Christians and I love making melody in my heart to the Lord.
It's definitely a double blessing.  And while I can sing all by myself, it is so much sweeter to be with other believers.

As we spoke of this not so long ago in a worship-team meeting, we were reminded of the need to pray diligently for one another; to be mindful of the fact that Satan will attack because he knows that true worship will destroy his plans. True worship leads us to thankful hearts.  Thankful hearts leads us to humility- Paul finishes this little section with the phrase: "and be subject to one another in the fear of Christ."  Humility leads us to the throne of God.  

Sing!
"It will do your heart good."
