A Godlike singer!!
God had a song He wanted to sing, and when He had finished it, He created a man to sing it. You see, it was a mighty song and needed a Godlike singer. The man was Jesus, a carpenter of Nazareth. He went up to Jerusalem and as He walked up and down its narrow, crowded streets, God’s song swept across the hearts of people.
Some ran to meet it; it was so full of strength and beauty. Others ran from it, trembling with fear. These were they who dreaded; for fear that it might uncover the hate and pull up the falsehood in which their lives were so comfortably grounded.
Jesus had such a beautiful song to sing and He still sings it today. It is a song with a divine melody. Its tune has a sound like the wind. Sometimes soft, like a gentle whisper. At other times like the roaring of the mighty sea, powerful, constant and everlasting.
When the leaders of Israel- scribes, priest, and Pharisees heard it, they shuttered the windows of their souls and closed the gates of their minds against it.
The Godlike singer sings the song of repentance, of peace, joy, love, and also contentment. Do you hear the singer today? He is singing from the roof tops all over to world, but who will listen and respond to Him?
His song also shouts from the smoke of burning buildings. It can be heard in the mountains of Afghanistan to the shores where the tsunami washed life and death out to sea! We can hear this Godlike singer, crying from rooftops and in back alley ways all over the world.
This Godlike singer not only is singing out to the world through the perverseness that we see all around us, He also sings to us from the beauty of life, things like the cry of a new born infant. Like the beauty from the sky so blue. Also from the rain that falls down onto His creation, at times seemingly wanting to wash away all of the evil that has taken hold of man.
Jesus came, singing, “My Father worketh until now, and I work.”
As we look around us, we see the constant evidence of God’s Spirit at work in the world. The universe testifies to the fact that the Creative Singer behind it not only was but is a worker. As for us, we must work until the Master comes. We must work in singing the songs that has been planted in our hearts. This is the song of the Good News!!
“A GOD LIKE SINGER!”
My Master was a singer, with His daily work to do,
And if we are to be like Him, we must be a singer too;
We must welcome honest labor, and honest labors fare,
Because where we are working, the Master’s song is there.
My Master was a soldier, a trusted friend so true,
He who would be like Him must be a soldier too;
In joyful hours of singing, in silent hours of prayer,
Where stands this loyal soldier, the Master’s song is there.
My Master was a servant, the pain of life He knew,
If we are to be like Him, we’ve a servants work to do!
Our burden will grow lighter if each would pull his own share,
And where there’s a servant, the Masters song is there!
My Master was a mighty singer, to this I must confess,
When our song is sung up yonder, I hope we past to test!!
My Masters voice is calling, “Who will go and work today?”
The fields are white with harvest; I can hear the Master say!
I hope you hear Him singing for it’s in Jesus name I pray!!
Can you hear Him singing?
Matthew 11: 28-30, “Come to Me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For My yoke is easy and my burden is light.”

Captain Bobby,
Many times, when we sing songs, we just sing words, and don't reflect on the true meaning. Thanks for sharing your thoughts about the singer, and may GOD continue to plant in your heart the words to share with others. I thought of many songs that tell about the wondrous love of GOD. WITH A SONG IN YOUR HEART, KEEP ON SINGING THE GOOD NEWS! THANKS AND GOD BLESS,
