Do you guys know the song “Awesome God”? The song is simple with only a few verses repeated over and over again but the impact of those words ring in your ears. They speak truth about our God. For me this song is a throw back, I can remember singing it with my parents when I was younger not knowing what the words meant at the time but knowing they were important. Now I’m listening to the song again and realizing the truth in the words “Our God is an awesome God, He reigns from Heaven above with wisdom, power, and love. Our God is an Awesome God.”
Then you have the song “Come to the River” that tells the weary to come to Jesus and those who are thirsty to go to the river and drink. I love how songs are able bring you closer to the Lord with simple words that make your heart take flight. Music has such a huge impact on our lives in this day and age. We open our ears to words and notes that make us feel joy, sadness, anger, and love. With other music I like the notes and sometimes I might even dance a little! But with christian music I feel more then just the surface emotions I feel Gods presence with me and I can’t help but smile. God speaks through the music, He will tell you that you are loved and called to greatness or that you are His son or daughter. You can get so much truth out of a simple song like “Awesome God”.
Next time you listen to a song really zone in on the lyrics to see what God is trying to say to you through the song. You might just get the answer you’ve been waiting to hear from Him.
Have an AWESOME week!!
