Triumph Song


“Save us, O Lord our God, and gather us from among the heathen, to give thanks unto Thy Holy Name, and to Triumph in Thy Praise.” Ps 106:47
The Question before the people of God is: “How powerful is your Song of Praise?” The Messages that God has given me in these last few weeks … “Wars and rumors of wars, Fret not because of evil doers …” ammunition for the war that rages, not only in our land, but in our own lives. For the enemy is rampant and seeking to wear out the saints. The Book of Daniel speaks about this: Dan 7:25 “The enemy shall speak great words against the Most High, and shall wear out the saints of the Most High, and think to change times and laws: and they shall be given into his hand …  In this hour of warfare, evil, and disregard for the Word of God – do we have a Song of the Lord that will put the enemy to flight? Truly saints in this hour of total disregard for the things of our God, what is our weapon for this warfare?  As always let us go to the Word of God. God has various weapons for our warfare!  We know the Power of the Holy Spirit will war for us; 2 Cor 10:4-6 encourages us, “our weapons are not carnal, but Mighty through God and we are able to pull down strong holds of the enemy, let us cast down every thing that exalts itself against the knowledge of God and bring into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ!” I find in Scripture that a “Triumph Song” is also a weapon of the Spirit of God! I point to 2 Chron. 20:21-22; The enemy nations had come against King Jehoshaphat and Scripture reveals he feared … However VS 14-15 “Then came the Spirit of the Lord in the midst of the congregation, here is the verse that tells us “Be not afraid, nor dismayed; for the battle is not yours, but God’s!” VS21 The King appointed singers unto the Lord, that they should “Praise the beauty of Holiness and go before the Army, and say, Praise the Lord; for His Mercy endureth forever!” Sing before, during, and after your battle! Remember Moses, when the battle was won, he sang a Song of Triumph! [Ex.15] We too can Triumph – if we have a Song of Victory, a Song that originates in the depth of our Spirit. For the warfare is against the Child of God. Remember Isaiah proclaimed; “Ye shall have a Song, as in the night when a Holy solemnity is kept; and gladness of heart ...!”  Often saints have a thought that they don’t Sing can’t Sing, or they don’t give much thought to Singing; but let us hear the Psalmist … 66:1 “Make a Joyful Noise unto God, Sing forth the honour of His Name: make His Praise glorius!” O saints there is Victory in our Song of the Lord: Such a Song comes from the depth of our being and raises a standard against our foe!  Loving you, Pastor
