God Chose It, Thought And Created It

God Chose It, Thought And Created It

          Genesis 1:1 records that, “In the beginning God created”.  In His divine wisdom and sovereignty God chose to create music because He desired to create it.  So He thought it into existence—that is creation.  God did not create music to fulfill his destiny, because He has no destiny –He is eternal and He is “I Am”. He is also the beginning and the end as Revelation 22:13 explains, “I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end, the first and the last.”.  

          Also since everything that God has ever done is perfect, He did not need to create music in order to make His creation more perfect.  Everything that He created--including music-- was perfect.  Although this is difficult for a musician to conceptualize, God’s creation was completely perfect with or without music.  Think about it, God’s creation did not get better or more complete or more perfect when He created music, because God never gets better. We as Christian musicians do things to perfect our musical skills in our long journey toward the development of our God-given musical gifts. God did not take a long or short musical journey.  He simply thought and absolutely nothing became something—music.  That is creation
