Corona Devo 3224

As our oldest child (almost 20 years old) hopped into the shower the other day, I heard him playing music on his phone from behind the closed bathroom door.  He enjoys listening to everything from Christian music to pop, and rock, and country too, but the song he was singing along to was one from his childhood, and I was surprised he even remembered it, let alone had added it to his playlist.

“Sing” is a song he learned while watching Sesame Street as a toddler, and you might be able to sing along to it too:

Sing, sing a song
Sing out loud
Sing out strong
Sing of good things not bad
Sing of happy not sad
Joe Raposo, 1971 (Sesame Street)

We may or may not be familiar with that song (about singing), but Revelation Chapter 15 says that we (those who will be victorious over the beast and its image and over the number of its name),,,all of us will sing a song.  

We will sing it out loud.  We will sing it out strong.  And we will be singing of good things, and not bad.  We will be singing of happy and not sad.  

The song that we will sing is the same song that Moses sang.  And it is also the song of the Lamb.

We should know that song. 

And the Bible says that we will.   

I saw in heaven another great and marvelous sign: seven angels with the seven last plagues—last, because with them God’s wrath is completed. 

(2) And I saw what looked like a sea of glass glowing with fire and, standing beside the sea, those who had been victorious over the beast and its image and over the number of its name. 

They held harps given them by God (3) and sang the song of God’s servant Moses and of the Lamb:

“Great and marvelous are your deeds, Lord God Almighty.  
Just and true are your ways, King of the nations. 
(4) Who will not fear you, Lord, and bring glory to your name?  
For you alone are holy.  
All nations will come and worship before you, for your righteous acts have been revealed.”  ~Revelation 15:1-4

Let's sing a song today.  And we should get to know the words to it.  
These lyrics are ages old...as Moses used to sing them!  But their meaning and their power have not aged a bit.  

This song is the song of the Lamb.  And all of us who know and believe in Him will one day be blessed to belt it out before Him.  

And so, let's sing, sing a song today.
Let's sing out loud and sing out strong today.
This song allows us to sing of good things not bad, and to sing of happy not sad.

Let's wrap our mind and our voice around these words today, and rejoice that one day we will sing Moses's song loud and strong to the King of Kings.  

“Great and marvelous are your deeds, Lord God Almighty.  
Just and true are your ways, King of the nations. 
(4) Who will not fear you, Lord, and bring glory to your name?  
For you alone are holy.  
All nations will come and worship before you, for your righteous acts have been revealed.”  ~Revelation 15:1-4

It’s never too late to turn to the Lord.   And--it’s never too late to turn back to the Lord.   Do we GET IT?   King Hezekiah GOT IT.   The people in his area (Israel) had not been following the Lord, and they had fallen away from the (God-ordained) traditions that the Lord had designed to connect His people with Himself,  like going to church (Temple), and like celebrating the festival of Passover.  So they sent a proclamation throughout all Israel...inviting everyone to come to Jerusalem to celebrate the Passover of the  Lord , the God of Israel. The people had not been celebrating it in great numbers as required in the Law ( 2 Chronicles 30:5). Hezekiah  invited the people back to church!  But how to get the word out? He  wrote letters of invitation to the people (2 Chronicles 30:1), but letters without delivery are dead messages.  Hezekiah needed to get the letters ... to God's people! At the king’s command, runners were...

Ever been around boys (of any age)?  They don't concern themselves with talking about   other  boys...they are not (usually) comparative that way, and would prefer to be competitive instead.  They are often contented with jokes and sounds, rather than defaming other guys or discussing their shortfalls. But...ever been around women ( of any age )?  For some sinful reason, our conversations often seem to p ick-a-little, talk-a-little, pick some more and talk, talk, talk about other women.  We  simmer into a boil as we digress and regress into unbecoming chatter about   other  women.   It's a terrible habit and yet girls in elementary school don't need to be taught how and even elderly church biddies can't quite fully withdraw.  We all still fall to condemning others  from time to time.  We have this sinful draw to make ourselves feel good by chirping back and forth and making someone   else   feel bad. It's na...

The earth is the   Lord ’s, and everything in it.   The world and all its people belong to him.   (2)  For he laid the earth’s foundation on the seas  and built it on the ocean depths.   ~Psalm 24:1-2 We belong to Him, but also…our world belongs to Him: and  everything in it .   Everything.   Every tree and flower, every person, every pelican, everything. How are we responding to that glorious Truth today?   Can we praise Him today?  Can we acknowledge and absorb (and respond!) to the awesome Truth that we belong to Him :  the Creator of all things, and our Creator?   He laid the earth’s foundation ...and (even)  the earth  knows that it belongs to him ... Do we? Are we choosing to respond to Him today?   The trees do.    Looking out my window as I read these words of God, I saw these words  proven by God as n aked tree-branch arms were raised in praise of their Creat...
