Does Satan have the power to take God’s creation of
music which Genesis 1:31 tells us was “very good” and rearrange it until it is
no longer very good? I believe the
answer is yes! Satan perverts many things
that God created for His glory and our good.
For instance, when Satan twists sex into his perverted form it is no
longer the wholesome wonderful thing that God created for us. Since we know this, why do we struggle with
the concept that Satan can pervert music?
It is the work of Satan to twist, pervert, and destroy the original work
of God’s creation. That is what Satan
does! So, any praxial view purporting
that all music is good, no matter how it is arranged, is a faulty view.
Can we trust Satan? The answer is "yes we most definitely can". We can trust him to always be Satan! He never takes the day off. I believe he is very busy working on music. Can we trust the music that he works on or influences musicians who arrange the building blocks of music (which belong to God)? Yes, we can. We can trust that his perverse influence will permeate it.
You may ask,"Is it easy to always tell whether Satan has influenced the building blocks?" No. "Why?" II Corinthians 11:2-3 warns us, "For such are false apostles, deceitful workers, transforming themselves into the apostles of Christ. And no marvel: for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light.
