How Jesus Shows His Love For People Through Music
By: Larry G. Rite
Gods Shows His Love For The World Through Music that has been written and composed by Christian singers. The most common uses of Christian music are at worship or Church services. However Christian singers have gone on to release albums which are becoming much more popular with none Christian listeners. It is by listening to music that we hear how much God loves the world.
Most Christian music involves singing and worshiping Jesus. Listening to Christian music can bring a lot of peace and tranquility. It evokes images of how much we are loved by Christ. Words speak meaning directly into our hearts that reflect Christ's love for the whole world. Jesus died for the sins of the world and we are told this time and again in Christian music.
The Christian composer of modern songs is far different than the composer of historical songs. Today there is rock, pop, heavy metal, hip hop and more. Historically music was far different but, it still reflected the message that Jesus loves us. Music of today is more up beat and in the large part it has an emotional impact on us. Sometimes music can lift us from a bad mood or inspire us to do something good. On the other-hand, music of a secular nature can influence us to do the wrong thing.
Today there is more Christian music than there ever was. There is all types of singers and groups. There is heavy metal, rock, gospel, pop, hip hop and the list goes on. Even though some people may not agree, Christian rock can still be decent music it just might not be to everyone's taste. Some people like gentle worship songs whilst others like them more heavy. They still deliver the important message that Jesus loves the world that He died for and rose again.
God loves His people to sing praise to Him. Music is a gift from God and we are very privileged to have such wonderful singers and songs in this world. In Psalm 100 God tells us to make a joyful noise to Him. That means that we should all sing and be joyful in front of God as He loves to hear His people sing.
God said that we should make a joyful noise unto Him which is written in Psalms 100. Surely then it is telling us that music is the gift from God? There are many exceptionally fine songwriters that are influenced by God to write music. They might have a prophetic gift to hear God's voice and translate what He is saying into words that can be sung.
Shane Barnard and Shane Everett are both wonderful musicians who have been blessed by God to sing and write songs. Jennifer Knapp is another wonderful artist whose songs are very contemporary. Some great heavy metal singers exist that sing about God's word. Whilst not everyone likes heavy metal there are the old type of classic hymns for people who don't like modern day music.
We should feel privileged that we have so many wonderful Christian singers in this world that God has gifted to sing His message of love. Even none Christian people are now listening to music that has a Christian message and this is good because they are able to hear the message of the Bible. Some people don't even realize that the music they are listening to has a Christian message of God's love for them, but at least they are listening to it. We should all sing and make a joyful noise unto the Lord.
