The Soul is the music

The Soul is the music


One of my friend on "Facebook" has posted up a status stating the following:


Being a “Minister of Music”


75% People

25% Music


Many have failed because they’ve got that backwards.


What a profound statement.  In reading this statement, God has shown me a powerful insight of the office of Minister of Music.


Having such a power position, you would have to prepare for the services you provide.  Let’s look at 75% People. In regards to that, we are dealing with spirits. We all are spirits, we have a soul and live in a body.  The battle is the soul within.  What makes good music is what comes from the soul of the person. The struggles as well as the victories in life.  That’s how you produce good written songs.  Songs are testimonies or a cry of inner struggles or the outer distractions of life.  


All of this and to top it all off, you have to select good music by the leading of the Lord.  Pressure, right?  Look at it as a good thing, pure gold comes from pressure.
