The SONG in your HEART

 

Isaiah 30:29

King James Version

29 Ye shall have a song, 

as in the night when a holy solemnity is kept; 

and gladness of heart, as when one goeth 

with a pipe to come into the mountain of the Lord, 

to the mighty One of Israel.


We were all born with a song.

A song we sang in the womb.

A song that GOD gave us.

A song that will forever remain with us.

Have you found your song?

Have you sung it?

Or, perhaps, you've forgotten you had one?

Did the world encroach too much upon you?

So much so, you forgot that song?

Did the LORD's enemy muddle your thinking?

Did he make you forget?


There is a solution.

For all who have forgotten.

Pray to be born again.

You need to be born again.

To be a new man.

The old man has forgotten.

Your song waits for you.


Pray to know who you really are.

Unless you already know, and just don't want to admit it.

Or thinking you won't make money from it.

Money gets in the way, you see.

It kills your dream.

It devours your gift.

It makes you forget your song.


You once had a song.

Which continues to beat wildly in your heart.

Surely, you knew what you were good at.

Wherein you did things effortlessly.

Where others labored, you zoomed through.

As if there was nothing to it.

You were a natural at it.


Was it art, dance, writing, singing, teaching, convincing?

Perhaps, you had a thing for sports, or entertaining?

Maybe, you were a whiz at numbers?

Were you primed for leadership?

Did you have excellent memory?

Were you born popular?

What maverick lies in your heart?

What "genius" did GOD give you?

What spirit did GOD give you?

Genesis 2:7

King James Version

7 And the Lord God formed man 

of the dust of the ground, 

and breathed into his nostrils 

the breath of life; 

and man became a living soul.


His breath is in us.

Thus, His song is in us.

You didn't know that, didya?

It's up to us to remember.

There is no finding, if there's no digging.

There is no joy, if there is no sorrow.

There is no triumph, if there is no patience.

The solution?

Seek GOD first.

Jeremiah 29:13

King James Version

13 And ye shall seek me, 

and find me, 

when ye shall search for me 

with all your heart.


Matthew 6:33

King James Version

33 But seek ye first the kingdom of God, 

and his righteousness; 

and all these things shall be added unto you.


It's really the ONLY way.

That you may find your song.

SEEK GOD FIRST.

By ourselves, we can't do it.

John 15:5

King James Version

5 I am the vine, 

ye are the branches: 

He that abideth in me, and I in him, 

the same bringeth forth much fruit: 

for without me ye can do nothing.


I thought you said we must seek GOD first.

Now, you say, without JESUS, we can do nothing?

Well, dears, GOD and JESUS are ONE.

JESUS said so.

John 10:30

King James Version

30 I and my Father are one.


Notice the people's reaction when JESUS declared that:

John 10:31-33

King James Version

31 Then the Jews took up stones again to stone him.

32 Jesus answered them, 

Many good works have I shewed you from my Father; 

for which of those works do ye stone me?

33 The Jews answered him, saying, 

For a good work we stone thee not; 

but for blasphemy; 

and because that thou, being a man, 

makest thyself God.


Well, folks, those "stoners" haven't found their song.

If they did, they'd be following JESUS, and not stoning Him.

JESUS is that song.

Through Him, we live our lives.

Our gifts are meant to serve Him.

And to GLORIFY GOD, the FATHER.

I honestly hope you find the song GOD gave you.

Pray, to know.

ENJOY the JOURNEY!
