Luke 1 shares Zechariah’s song, Praise be to
the Lord, the God of Israel,
because he has come to his people and redeemed them. He has raised up a horn of
salvation for us in the house of his servant David.
A horn of salvation is a phrase that means a
strong king. This song is giving praise
to the Lord because he has come to redeem his people, to bring salvation to
them.
It’s a good thing to sing, and when we sing, it’s
a great thing for that song to be one of adoration for our King. Nothing lifts ours spirits like a song that
exalts Him.
When we sing a song of praise, we are voicing
into the air our declaration of who God is, of his goodness, of his
lovingkindness, and of our thanksgiving for salvation.
When’s the last time you sang a song, on your
own, without the prompt of a worship leader, a radio, your phone, or a show on the
television?
Try it.
Today, make time to sing an impromptu song to the One who has redeemed
you.
It doesn’t matter if you can’t carry a tune, if you’re throat is sore, or
your rhythm is off – He hears your heart.
