Music and the Soul
You would never think it would you, but he did. He was created as the master director of music and led the music choir of heaven. Lucifer means Morning Star and he shone brighter than any other angel and led the music of praise and worship of God in heaven, until pride and all those ikky emotions took hold. In Job we read "When the morning stars sang together, and all the sons of God shouted for joy" and in Ezekial we read "Thou hast been in Eden the garden of God; every precious stone was thy covering, the sardius, topaz, and the diamond, the beryl, the onyx, and the jasper, the sapphire, the emerald, and the carbuncle, and gold: THE WORKMANSHIP OF THY TIMBRELS AND OF THY PIPES WAS PREPARED IN THE DAY THAT THOU WAST CREATED." However, he let pride take over his heart, mind, spirit and it destroyed everything in its' wake, even him. It made him ugly and all the angels that went along with him in his rebellion. Remember he didn't lose his gifts and talents, not even the ones for music, nor did any of the angels that had musical talents that were cast out with him and ended up shut out of heaven, roaming the earth seeking to destroy us.
Music is a very powerful tool, as are all the art forms and Satan knows that. Even the Greek Philosophers Aristotle and Plato knew the moral implications and power of music, that they were more power than legislation in leading a nation in a particular direction. Music changes mood, brain chemistry, emotions and that leads to choices made in the moment, heat of the moment etc..., so it's a powerful tool that Satan uses, particularly with youth and even the not so young. He has convinced churches to leave the Bible at home and also to bring unGoldy music into the church, along with hip hop and breakdancing, which are abominable for any church to have in them. Lucifer has taken what was something holy, sacred to be for the worship of God, and Godly things and turned it to be used to agitate the soul, to incite sexual desires and all kinds of unGodly thoughts and such. It is up to those who understand this and are of Godly soul to put forth music, poetry so on and so forth and push it out there on a wide a scale as possible that is Godly to counter Satan's art. I am blessed that God has also called me to do that as well.
I am now waiting on my publisher to let me know when my first book of poems, which include Christian themed poetry, will be ready for release and pre-orders, and the first 10 to order will get an autographed copy. Should that do well, I am already working on a second group of poems including poems in Italian and Spanish, a number of them Christian theme, for the next publication after this book entitled A Journey of Faith and Life in Poetry. I am also hoping to record my first album of public domain Christian hymns next year, funding available, God willing. I feel it is important to counter Satan's art as much as possible and will do what I can. I keep you posted and let you know when the poetry book is available for pre-order.
Shalom and Amen
