When the Music Stopped

Genesis 1:2 And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters.
I was driving down the road

I heard a song. I thought of my bride. I had tears as I considered her.

I wonder does God cry when we sing love songs to Him?

Is His mind so focused on His bride that tears come to His eye when she sings to Him?

Luke 10:18 And he said unto them, I beheld Satan as lightning fall from heaven.

When did this happen?
It could have happened either before creation or just after it happened.
We find the devil in the garden in Genesis 3:1 Now the serpent was more subtil than any beast of the field which the LORD God had made. And he said unto the woman, Yea, hath God said, Ye shall not eat of every tree of the garden?

Did you know that the angels do not sing in the Bible?
Luke 2:13And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising God, and saying, Notice that they weren’t singing but saying.
We have often heard that the angels sang on this day. It isn’t true.

Satan wanted to be God
Ezekiel 28:1 The word of the LORD came again unto me, saying, 2 Son of man, say unto the prince of Tyrus, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Because thine heart is lifted up, and thou hast said, I am a God, I sit in the seat of God, in the midst of the seas; yet thou art a man, and not God, though thou set thine heart as the heart of God: 3 Behold, thou art wiser than Daniel; there is no secret that they can hide from thee: 4 With thy wisdom and with thine understanding thou hast gotten thee riches, and hast gotten gold and silver into thy treasures: 5 By thy great wisdom and by thy traffick hast thou increased thy riches, and thine heart is lifted up because of thy riches: 6 Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD; Because thou hast set thine heart as the heart of God; 7 Behold, therefore I will bring strangers upon thee, the terrible of the nations: and they shall draw their swords against the beauty of thy wisdom, and they shall defile thy brightness. 8 They shall bring thee down to the pit, and thou shalt die the deaths of them that are slain in the midst of the seas. 9 Wilt thou yet say before him that slayeth thee, I am God? but thou shalt be a man, and no God, in the hand of him that slayeth thee. 10 Thou shalt die the deaths of the uncircumcised by the hand of strangers: for I have spoken it, saith the Lord GOD
This is when I believe that the music stopped in heaven for it can be clearly shown that satan was very much the chief musician.
Could it be that God knew this would happen so He prepared us to take satan’s place?

The music is about to begin again. The choir will be made up of the saints of the Most High.
Revelation 15:1 And I saw another sign in heaven, great and marvellous, seven angels having the seven last plagues; for in them is filled up the wrath of God. 2 And I saw as it were a sea of glass mingled with fire: and them that had gotten the victory over the beast, and over his image, and over his mark, and over the number of his name, stand on the sea of glass, having the harps of God. 3 And they sing the song of Moses the servant of God, and the song of the Lamb, saying, Great and marvellous are thy works, Lord God Almighty; just and true are thy ways, thou King of saints.

We sing “Won’t we have a time…” Why wait until then?

Good thought. Also Rev. 5:7 they sang a new song.

And Zephaniah 3:17 says, "The Lord your God in your midst, the Mighty One will save; He will rejoice over you with gladness, He will quiet you with His love, and He will rejoice over you with singing."

I love this scripture because I think of how we soothe our children with singing - how we sing them to sleep at night in our arms. How awesome is it that the Word says that the Mighty One rejoices over US the same way?

I had not seen this in a while. What a great thought!
Makes you wonder if we will be singing along with Him in that day?
Can you imagine what that would sound like...

So is mine. I need to re-string it and get it ready for use once again.
I am about to start learning piano. It is a desire and something that I just want to do for use in the ministry. I feel that it can be a useful tool.
God bless.
Got a pm from a friend of yours. I did reply and hope all turns out well.
God is able.
