In The Music




Quite frankly we don’t always listen to
Kirk Franklin and all the Holy Spirit inspired music in our privacy,
Because we are so radio-active and the secular music reduces our half life because
It leads us into sin and the wages of sin is death. Slow death like a cancer and radio-therapy is not the cure.
But while we are playing it in our heads, we no longer make melody in our hearts. Turning what used to be His tunes to iTunes, tuning in to frequencies that glory in the CLASSIC self and sex, calling in to bring issues we should channel to the cross but let’s face it...

There’s a song on radio for your every emotion and the devil 98.4% of the times CAPITALizes on this, when you are EASIly swayed by a KISS from your HOT, UPTOWN HOMEBOY, usually after you realize your GHETTO boy is not the ONE for you, making him your X when all the while you would have tuned in to the HOPE and TRUTH we have when Christ is the head of the FAMILY.

We need to FM…I mean, affirm our faith in Him. Didn’t His audience see Him rise to the skies when He ascended? He is on air, so you better listen to Him.
Our God is a musician and here’s proof. He makes the beats out of our hearts that gives us pulse, so His music is life. That is why you decompose when you die. But before you do, press pause and rewind back to the beginning then replay and listen. And if your music does not forward the message of Him who rose above the charts and billboards when He resurrected then you might as well stop and eject and ask Him to put a new song in your heart.

 Because the original record was broken when Adam ate the fruit, so sin is on repeat in our human nature, looped like a noose that’s why death is the climax.
But His rod and staff they comfort me. When I was still a sinner and a G, the rock of ages CLEFt for me. Coz like a discord I needed atonement so that I would be in tune with Him. So now my life is no longer a solo performance because He backs me up, walks with me so His presence is my accompaniment and His grace is abundant for me. My music is for Him only.
So now I implore you to go back to the basics of worship, Psalm 101, sing of His mercy and justice, pursuing clarity of mind and purity of heart. And when they ask you why you sing, tell them the reason why. Tell them the reason why. This is the reason why…
I sing because I’m happy, I sing because I’m free. His eyes on the sparrow. That’s the reason why I sing.

  5. This is deep bro! Keep it up. Totally a blessing and totally refreshing!
    This piece reminds me of the deep messages from the young Theologian on The Fuel Project on Facebook. Makes me reflect upon the desperation of the devil to be like God. He got kicked outta heaven yet he tries to promise humans who follow him a heaven. How now?
    Keep them coming dude :)
