“Enter His gates with a song of thanksgiving. Come into His Courtyards with a song of praise. Give thanks to Him; praise His Name. The Lord is good. His mercy endures forever. His faithfulness endures throughout every generation.” Psalm 100:4-5
God loves to hear you sing. No matter what kind of voice you have, no matter whether you
have a pleasant voice or not, regardless of whether you can even carry a tune, God loves to
hear you sing to Him. He created music. . . especially singing. He loves to hear you sing to
Him…about Him….for Him. There is something Divine that is woven into music. Melodies have a capacity to bypass our mental logic and reason. A song can trigger the human heart and touch our souls. Music is not dependent on a language, nor a vocal tone or quality. It can cause goosebumps to rise without a listener’s choice or intent.
Music can penetrate our human capacities and go straight to a part of us that only He can
reach. And His Spirit loves to touch us deeply. . . Moments that bypass our human reason and ability to control are created by His Divine Intervention into our human core. For many,
“goosebumps” spring without any control on our part. It’s a sign of His Spirit connecting with ours.
God invites you to step through the Gates . . . not stand outside of it with uncertainty or
hesitation. He invites us to come in “with a song . . .” Not whispering. . . not silently so as not to disturb Him. His Gates are open . . . day and night. He is there, just past the Gate, waiting for you.
What will you experience first, after walking through His Gates? No security checkpoint… no ID or “frisking” required. No X-ray scan. You simply enter with a Song. “Thank You…Hallelujah.”
The Song continues as you step into His Courtyard. With each step, you are drawing nearer,
and beginning to focus your attention on seeing Him. Contact with Him. You begin to sing with anticipation. You are joining a song that everyone around you is singing as well. Every
language, every voice, spontaneously… from every heart. All you can think about is Him. His
Name on your lips, and on the lips of every person there. One Focus. One Name. Erupting
from every heart and voice…from every place on Earth.
You are fully aware that you could never be there on your own merit. You were invited by the King Himself. You have entered because of His Invitation. . . His Love for you. You begin to see dear faces that went before you into His Courts . . . into His Presence. The Song is on everyone’s lips. Erupting from every heart instantaneously. You know that you are not worthy to be there. But you are. . . because of Him.
And all that you want to do is to look upon His Face, through tears of joy and love. . . and sing
His Song for all Eternity.
