Satan Has the Power to Pervert Music—part 4

Satan Has the Power to Pervert Music—part 4
            One of the main reasons that I post every day is that I have lived long enough to observe Christian musicians being lulled asleep by the “wiles of the devil”.  Ephesians 6:11 teaches that Christians must, “Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.”  We have been considering what Christians can do to not let their music be influenced by Satan.  One of the major defenses of Christian musicians is “the whole armour of God”.  Why is the complete armor necessary?  Eph 6:12 For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.  Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.”
            What the Bible teaches is in no way negative but rather it is very positive.  God has made provision for the Christian musician who takes advantage of His full armor of God, stays awake, and walks circumspectly enough to discern when He or she is about to come under the influence of Satan.  Ephesians 5:10 teaches that there is always safety in “Proving what is acceptable unto the Lord.”
