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.
