SCRIPTURE: Psalm (NIV) 89:1 I will sing of the LORD’s great love for ever; with my mouth I will make your faithfulness known through all generations. 2 I will declare that your love stands firm forever, that you established your faithfulness in heaven itself.
OBSERVATION: Music is a great medium to express love. Man has been writing and singing love songs for years. Speaking words of love can have great meaning, but it seems to me that singing those words lift them to a higher level.
Music is a good way to express our love for and to God. Yet the greatest theme of a song (as in the verses above) is not our love for God, but God’s great love for us.
APPLICATION: Having experienced His love, it is my pleasure and privilege and responsibility to make it known. The Lord’s love is not to stay within my heart; it is to be expressed with my mouth. It is to be sung and declared! It is to be proclaimed in a way that others can hear and understand.
May people see in me how a person loves God. And may they see in me how wonderful it is to be loved by God!
PRAYER: Lord, what wonderful peace and security I have in knowing that you love me. My goal is to make you secure in my love. Amen
