Evidences That You May be Called to Music Ministry


Evidences That You May be Called to Music Ministry

Below is a list of strengths that a musician who is called to music ministry often has.  They are not proofs of a calling to music ministry, but God often gives them to musicians who are called to be ministers of music.  Over the many years that I was a Bible College music professor, young musicians often mistook these gifts as a proofs that they were called to preach.  Here is the list that I have written for your consideration.

                    A passionate love for Scripture
                    An understanding of God’s Word
                    A desire to study music in the Bible
                    The ability to find spiritual meanings in sacred music
                    A desire to share those meanings with others
                    A spiritual burden for people
                    A desire to worship God with music
                    A gentleness and love for those with whom you music
                    A passion to music effectively
                    You have dissatisfaction with mere artistic rendering of sacred music
                    A desire to seek and have the Holy Spirit’s anointing on your musicing
                    Recognition of the dangers of worshiping the creature (music) rather than              its Creator (God)
                    A sincere desire to music unto God rather than to consume music on         
                    Your own desires
                    You consider your musicing a confession of faith
                    You consider your music ministry a sacred trust
