EXAMPLE

A lot of times people in the church think that leading someone to find Jesus as their Savior is all about going through the Four Spiritual Laws, The Roman Road or some other method that they have been taught.

I’m not saying those things are bad, but I do believe that the most powerful thing we can do is to live a life modeled after Jesus Christ and worship God in heaven with all of our hearts.

Worship through song is one way we can show others how we feel about God. It is a very powerful form of worship.

Do you think that music can defeat our enemies?

Look at 2 Chronicles 20:21


After consulting the people, the king appointed singers to walk ahead of the army, singing to the LORD and praising him for his holy splendor. This is what they sang:

“Give thanks to the LORD;

his faithful love endures forever!”

22At the very moment they began to sing and give praise, the LORD caused the armies of Ammon, Moab, and Mount Seir to start fighting among themselves.

When the armies of Israel arrived at the scene, “Not a single one of the enemy had escaped.” (v. 25)

Music that has the aim of glorifying God in heaven can and will defeat the Enemy.

Can music lead others to belief in Jesus Christ?

Turn to Acts 16:25

25Around midnight Paul and Silas were praying and singing hymns to God, and the other prisoners were listening.

The result of that singing was the jailer and his entire family being saved and baptized (v. 33)

Our focus on praising God, even when in adverse circumstances, can cause others to wonder and inquire about our joy. That opens up the door for us to share about our relationship with Jesus giving the other person the opportunity to know Him as their Lord and Savior.

Worship the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul.

SEEK FIRST THE KINGDOM OF GOD
