Deuteronomy 32:44 ¶ And Moses came and spake
all the words of this song in the ears of the people, he, and Hoshea (Joshua)
the son of Nun.
It seems only reasonable that Moses “sang”
rather than “talked this song to the congregation of Israel. It is my belief that intoning or singing the
song that is now recorded in this Scripture was so common that Moses did not
have to make a big deal about whether he sang or talked this song to the
people.
Christian musicians need to remember
that although quoting a sacred song can be effective, there is no substitute
for singing and playing a song. Musicing
the good news of the message of the
gospel of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ is a unique and special gift of
God. Throughout the history of mankind
the ministry of music has had historically a unique and powerful place in both
public and private worship. This we know
from the fact that Scripture often records instances of music in worship and
commands us to praise and honor God through singing and playing unto Him.
What you do as a Christian musician
has incredible value both toward god and man.
So, take heart today as you turn your heart to minister to and for
Him. God is honored by your musicing
unto him and by your leading others in worship through music.
