SINGING & MAKING MELODY ON THE LORD

And every creature which is in heaven, and on the earth, and under the earth, and such as are in the sea, and all that are in them, heard I saying, Blessing, and honour, and glory, and power, be unto him that sitteth upon the throne, and unto the Lamb for ever and ever (Revelation 5:13).

According to this verse in Revelation, every creature – which includes you and me – will be singing to the Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. “But I can’t sing,” we say. However, one day we not only can sing, but will sing.

Now that you know that in the future you will be singing, there is no reason to wait until then. You can sing now. You can sing today! All of us might not be able to make melodies and sing like King David, but we can all make joyful noise onto the Lord. So what are you waiting for….go ahead and bring the sacrifice of praise onto our Lord.

Speaking to yourselves in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody in your heart to the Lord (Ephesians 5:19).

Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom; teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord (Colossians 3:16)

This is great! Do you remember your sonorous voice?
They say that we should sing to God even when our voice is croaky. When the song gets to the door of heaven, it will be changed to a beautiful melody. God has been speaking to us to start singing to Him. This is another reminder. Thanks so much Emman

LOL, Chris, how can I forget? While most of you guys sing sweet melodies, I tend to make a joyful noise.

Both are totally acceptable onto the LORD.
