More on Good and Faithful Musicians Part 3


More on Good and Faithful Musicians Part 3 

            The faithful musical servant is not only a leader and a worshiper but also a
 faithful teacher.  Faithful musical leadership includes teaching others to worship God by musicing unto Him.  The faithful musical servant utilizes teaching skills in their most profound form i.e. teaching by example.  The faithful musical servant is not only a technical leader but also a “touched” leader.  I contend that the touched servant is an anointed servant.  Starting late in the twentieth century Christian writers and music philosophers began to make acrid comments about those who sought the anointing or the Holy Spirit as though such philosophical belief was egotistical or somewhat fanatical.  Although it may not be a popular concept among Christians in this century, the visitation of God upon human servants is certainly a biblical concept.  For examples see Leviticus 7:35, 8:12, 1 Samuel 15:1, and Isaiah 10:27, James 5:14, and 1 John 2:27.
