"Sing the Sermon; Preach the Song!"






Must learn to sing our sermons and preach our songs."
(Pastor Kenneth Phillips) 


"And the LORD said, Judah shall go up: behold,
I have delivered the land into his hand."
(Judges 1:2)




Profound, isn't it?  What?  Singing a sermon!  Why not?  Judah goes up first  ... that's praise, so praise Him in the sermon, praise Him in the dance, praise Him in the worship, praise Him in the song, praise Him with your voice, praise Him with your uplifted waving arms, praise Him  ...  Praise Him   ...   PRAISE Him!  He Lives; Jesus Christ Lives!  The creative deepened avenue of the seasoned prophetic preacher would do it.  He would do what?  He would do 'A new thing' for the last lap, like: "Sing the Sermon; Preach the Song!



When you're singin' the sermon, be prepared for dancin'  ... It will be a toe-tappin', soul swayin', spirit dancin', body movin', aisle shakin', ivory-ticklin' kind of thing!  Huh?  You know how it is  ...  we just can't help it when that holy music gets to us  ... the tempo calls to the feet and the notes jangle the soul  ... it's called Worship and Praise to our mighty God, Jesus Christ!  And, be careful not to murmur at it, because when David danced before the Lord, his wife ridiculed him and ended up barren.  God receives each individual's worship with open arms.  Some bow; some sit with hands turned upward; some stand with honor and gratitude; some cry tears of joy; some laugh and shout; some smile with quiet thankfulness; and some Dance with uninhibited abandonment!   The moral of the story:  Dance, children, Dance!


Hey, there are a lot of songs that PREACH!  Can I get a witness?  Like, it's time to flood heaven with praise and worship, so "Everybody Get Up!;" we're "Goin' to the Enemy's Camp To Take Back What He Took From Me;" because "Amazing Grace" is my middle name now, so "Make Way for the King;" we're headed for "The New Jerusalem," so just say "Hallelujah Anyhow" when troubles come your way, because you know you're "Crucified With Christ," and "Our God Is An Awesome God;" and "There's A Reason" we're enduring to the end; it's because of His "Amazing Love," and "Ain't No Grave Gonna' Hold My Body Down;" should be your motto, because you can testify each day "He's Grown More Dear," and don't worry about the night, because "There's A Little Bit O' Mornin' Outside."




We have come to the powerful and amazing time of the new Tabernacle of David  ...  Worship, Worship, Worship!  Preach that Song, Sing that Sermon, dance the Word, and enter in.  Huh?  It's a new day, a new thing, a new chord, a new order, a new climate, a new depth, a new sound, a new aroma rising from earth  ...

It's the Wedding Song of the Bride, the lilt of words flowing to the One whom she loves, because the day is drawing near, and when we're in love, things get a little turned around, because love makes us "Sing the Sermon; Preach the Song!"
