Singing is absolutely the correct response to our salvation. I am so thankful for what the Lord has done for us. By grace through faith in Christ we are saved and then we in response sing praises to Him where we join Him on the long road to sanctification! Love and blessings to you and your family!
Amen Mandy! You are right, “singing is absolutely the correct response to our salvation” and it is also a product of being sanctified. A happy GOD-renewed heart is a grateful heart towards the Triune GOD. When we grasp CHRIST’s sacrifice and GOD the FATHER’s love through the HOLY SPIRIT that constantly guides/reminds us, we are ecstatic and convey it with songs. Similarly, when we are anxious or in pain, we sing knowing He is an Omnipotent GOD. Now, I’m reminded of the song, “Give Thanks” by Henry Smith and popularized by Don Moen. Indeed it is GOD’s grace through faith in JESUS that we have salvation and our singing, either actual or in thought (like the cacophonous me), is also a preparation for our task in eternity i.e. worshipping our Triune GOD. Hallelujah! King of kings and Lord of lords…. GOD bless you, Nathan, and your parents!
True, Jim! If only the Jews, who did not believe, realized this almost 2000 years ago, then that will be a different thing but it is all GOD’s will and providence to include Gentiles like us in His Salvation plan. We pray that those who are still hardened will come to realize that JESUS is the CHRIST and the Messiah that they long for. Maybe, we will witness in our lifetime the entire country singing Handel’s Messiah and other songs like In Christ Alone but that may be the end times already. GOD bless you and your family!
Wow: “Maybe, we will witness in our lifetime the entire country singing Handel’s Messiah and other songs like In Christ Alone but that may be the end times already. GOD bless you and your family!” I believe we are closer than before…so close
Really? GOD willing! I guess I have said it before that we have to double time on our unsaved family and friends, Jim. Wait, you are still awake. Good morning pastor!
You are right, prayer to GOD is also effective in Him saving them. Going to your site in a while. Now is my local news and the number of infected is rising from 6,666 last week to almost 10,000 few days ago and is down now at 6,000 plus during vacation mode. Still, hospitals are overwhelmed. Good night!

Indeed we need to be urgent in prayer and sharing. I’m still awake, reading the last big of a commentary on Genesis but soon will be going to sleep!
