Can you play an instrument? I listened to my friend Travis play “This is my Father’s World,” on his Clarinet, Sunday in worship. I wish I could play an instrument. Melanie taught me and one of our sons to play a little tune on the piano some years ago. But I have forgotten what she taught me. I can’t play any instrument, but someday I will.
There are so many songs in heaven. John heard a group of people singing a song of victory after they overcame the forces of evil. Every song we have seen in this book of Revelation focuses on God. In heaven, they sing that God is “holy, holy, holy.” “Worthy is the Lamb,” is another favorite. This song reaches back to Moses’ victory over the forces of Pharaoh at the Red Sea. God has won again!
We win in the end. Let the song of heaven give us our words of praise today: God is great and marvelous, just and true. He is to be held in reverence. Our God is glorious and holy, worthy of worship. Some day all the nations will worship our God. We will be given harps to play the song of praise! Why not get a head start today? Even if we can’t play an instrument, we all have the instruments of our voices. Our God can do anything but fail. Join the song. “Victory in Jesus, our Savior forever. He sought us and bought us with his redeeming blood.”
