St Luke 1:46, “And Mary said, My soul doth magnify the Lord, and my spirit hath rejoiced in God my Savior.”
All
Christian musicians should study Mary’s magnificat or song of
thanksgiving. This song is a model of
Bible principles of musicing unto God.
So, it is a good thing to study this song at Christmas time and at other
times during the year.
It is a good thing for Christian musicians to
confess every day that “my soul doeth magnify the Lord’. Christian musician does your soul magnify the
Lord at this very minute? During this
busy and hectic Christmas season, is your soul rejoicing in god your Savior? How long has it been since you praised the
Lord for regarding your low estate?
If
anyone has anything good to say about a Christian musician it is because the
Great God of heaven reached down and lifted that musician up out of a pit of
noise and mire and established his or her life in Christ (see Psalm 43:3 KJV-Cambridge Ed. Center
Ref.).
It is the Holy Spirit who anoints
our musicing in order that it may be efficacious. Mary reminds us in her song in verse
forty-nine that, “He hath holpen his servant Israel, in remembrance of his
mercy.’ Praise God for this model song
of thanksgiving. It would be a good idea
to take time right now to thank the Lord for the musical gifts and graces that
He has bestowed upon you that make it possible for you to serve Him through
music.
