The New Sound

Music is one of the most powerful forms of art if not the most powerful. Nowadays, I'm hearing a change of chorus, of lyricism, of style, and melody from heaven. Hell has a lot of sounds coming from it, too but can never compare to the force of God's songs to mankind. A lot of music we hear from our iPods to th radio station to the television moves our souls but damages our spirit. A lot of it influences us to be prideful, greedy, promiscuous, and rude. If you don't agree, listen to the latest hits and see if they don't have you thinking certain ways that ain't right. Now, before some of you start saying I'm pointing at he secular music industry alone, don't trip. There's a lot of garbage in the gospel music industry too that damages the spirit, too (yep, I said it). But my friends, there is a new sound, one that changes the spirit of man from corruption to incorruption. There's a sound that influences people to halt actions of suicide. There's a sound that's makes crooked politicians actually become representatives of and for the people. A new sound. One that speaks truth boldly when lies are more receptive. This new sound uses simple melodies to soothe the soul rather than imperfectly placed chord progressions. This sound is fresh and draws mankind to seek a relationship with he Savior. If you really notice most of music nowadays, it stinks. Clinging cymbals loud music and unfulfilling; meaning it doesn't lead people to their true destiny. But there is a sound, a pure, soaking, healing, and melodic sound from heaven. According the will of God, this sound must come from His true Church from India, to Japan, to Russia, to South America (to name a few). It's full of freedom because Jesus is not religion, He's freedom. What is a better tool to gain the hearts of men to Him that music? And yes, He is using rock n roll, hip hop and even classical to get the job done. King David talked about the new song and that's what it is. To my people out there, you'll hear it and it'll draw you to where and who you're supposed to be. To the church especially in the US, let's loose the traditional and soulish levels we're in tune with. Get with the new sound or those we feel aren't on our level will and do more for Christ than we ever will (Matthew 21-23).

Til next time, gdow
