God Never Gets Tired-Part 1

  God never Gets Tired

Isaiah 40:28 states, “Hast thou not heard the LORD, the creator of the ends of the earth, fainteth not, neither is weary?  There is no searching of his understanding.” 

       The passage of Scripture in which this verse is found reminds the Christian that the LORD who is the creator of everything above, below, in, on, and around the earth gives strength and power to the weary.  God means what He said in the Book of Genesis.  He really did create everything.  (If one doubts the authenticity of God’s literal creation in the Genesis Record, he or she “dumbs down” the power of God.)  If Jehovah did not create then perhaps He does not have the power and the ability to give strength to weary Christian musicians.  I choose to believe, however, that Jehovah had the power to take nothing and make something out of that “nothingness” and, furthermore, that Jehovah God now has the power to give strength to weary Christian musicians.  I also choose to believe that Jehovah exercises that power on the behalf of weary Christian musicians.  The reason I believe that God gives strength to weary Christian musicians is that I have experienced that power and strength many, many times since I confessed my sins with Godly sorrow and received his forgiveness and, by faith, accepted Him as my Lord and Savior.

       How can a weary Christian musician receive help and strength?  The answer is very simple.  It is so simple that that many Christian musicians fail to receive this help and assistance from the self existent, independent, eternal “God who is”.  First of all, musicians must remember that He is, and that he is the rewarder of them that seek Him.  (See Hebrews 11:6.) 

       The same passage of Scripture that we quoted at the beginning of this discussion also says in verse 31, “But they that wait upon the LORD shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; they shall walk and not faint.”  The Hebrew word which has been translated renew in verse thirty-one is caliph (2498) which means literally a change in strength.  So, if we as Christian musicians need to have a change in the amount of strength that we have, either physically, spiritually or emotionally, we need to “wait” (qavah 6960) or be “bound together” with the self-existent, independent eternal God who is alive and seated at the right hand of the father making intercession for Christian musicians right now!  (See Romans 8: 26-27.)  So, the secret of your renewed strength is getting close to the Lord and telling Him how much you need Him.  I see that this discussion is getting lengthy so we will continue it tomorrow.
