He has given me a new song to sing, a hymn of praise to our God. Many will see what he has done and be amazed. They will put their trust in the LORD.

Psalm 40:3

"The suffering servant of God always becomes the singing one. For as the secret of song is ever that of waiting for God, doing the will of God, in and through suffering, the result is always deliverance, and the issue a song." - G. Campbell Morgan

Let the new song in, then sing it out, so: 

• Many will see all He has done.
• Be amazed by Him.
• Put their trust in Him.

Have I 

• allowed God to do the corrective and sovereign work in my life in order to create new song?
• belted out the new melody so others will come to the sweetness of salvation and redeeming work of His Word?

Belt it out; even if it is off key.

"Music finds its highest purpose when used as a tool to extol the greatness of God. It can console, encourage, teach, and even admonish those who are away from God. Music is a biblical way of expressing our worship of the Lord. Spiritual music gives voice to our joy and adoration unlike anything else. Whether a psalm or a hymn or a spiritual song, the purpose of music is to glorify God, and He wants us to use this gift as a means of worshiping Him." - Gotguestions.org

Oh, that I had wings like a dove; then I would fly away and rest! I would fly far away to the quiet of the wilderness.
Psalm 55:6-7

I find this so interesting. The wilderness David fled to for protection, he wants to fly to for peace.

Hmm. I need to think about this.

Belt it out; even if it is off key.
