A song only the redeemed can sing

August 24, 2008 - Sunday

A song only the redeemed can sing I can't help but write a blog about this song. This song is so amazing. It's so my heart. It sounds like some of the language I use in some of my songs.. (not the minor sound, though..) (*** FULL LYRICS POSTED BELOW 1 PET. VERSE) (SONG BY KRISTENE MUELLER. GO TO MY MYSPACE TO LISTEN TO THE SONG AND TO LINK TO HER MYSPACE.) I just love every single word. I love that it's so true that We DO sing songs the angels only dream of singing. I listen to it (go listen to it while you read!) I listen to it and I picture.. well, myself... I picture me coming from the fire. In slow-motion, Mission Impossible style. Or like my buddies Shadrack Meshack and Abednigo. But I do. I picture such a ransomed.. me in all of these lyrics, in the whole song. Because.. "I know what it means!" (part of the lyrics.) I see myself outside in that storm it talks about... and it just stops. And my head open to heaven. Oh so glorious! Some times I guess I wonder in my head... what would it be like to not be the fallen race? To be an angel created by God for God (which, I mean, we were created by God and for God..) but you know what I mean? To live an existence in heaven. And to make war for His peoples. And I know angels have fallen and did fall- I get that, but we are the fallen race. We don't live an existence in heaven. We are here. we are now. And He died for us. He DIED for us. And we have been redeemed. And the angels look on us in awe at the way we worship Him. At the fact that we HAVE been redeemed. and CAN be redeemed. But they look and they see something... a relationship that is so uniquely different than the one they can have. We fight and we charge and we make it and we press through with hardships and with joys and with life. We pray and we cry and we weep and we laugh. And here we are. They are watching, with all who have gone before us, "What are they going to do now?" (1 Peter 1:6-8... posted below.) I quoted it before i knew where it was... lol.. wow. We sing the songs of His faithfulness and His great love and redemption. And we can. because we know what it means. We know what the redemption means. Because We've been redeemed. We've been REDEEMED. RANSOMED. We are His TREASURE. His treasured church. Hallelujah! the song of the storm ceasing.. the song of the dawn breaking...the song of us coming up out of death- we were once DEAD and if He can save us from DEATH and HELL than He can freakin' make us like Him more and more with each passing day! Than He can surely aid is in the fight against lukewarmness! Against being comfy cosy in our graveclothes! Some of you still find the old life you left behind attractive! No you canNOT change the past. But why talk about how glorious it is/was? Do you not believe in your own salvation? Even the ANGELS cant sing the songs of salvation!! the song of my last tear falling.. the song of my rescue coming... the song of the undefeated lover coming forth from the fire... I will NOT be defeated in my love for Him. The fire and the flames, they will not quench me. They will not dy me up, pass me out, barbecue me, they will not snuff me out. Because I AM an undefeated LOVER because He has saved me from HELL and the grave! He has taken the hell that satan would have loved to put INSIDE of me and He allowed it not to enter my heart! He took me out of hell and hell out of me! Some of you need a fresh revelation because do you get it? WE ARE HIS PEOPLE. we ARE HIS PEOPLE. HE SINGS SONGS OF SALVATION OVER US! suffering making love genuine sorrow making joy reckless losing making finding glorious. Oh how He loves you so. Oh how He loves us so! It never freakin' ends!! It's like an earthquake inside all of us. Will you let it shake you? Will you let yourself LOOK and appear to the world "dumb enough" to "shake" as with the effects of that earthquake exploding inside of you? Will you let your appearance just GO and take hold of the beauty He has in His hand for you? You are a beautiful creation even the angels marvel at you, human! and you were made a step lower from the angels! Is it not enough? What more could you ask for?? The beauty is already there. DON'T STIFLE IT. Get the picture. And sing the song only you were meant to sing!! 1 Peter 1:6-12 So be truly glad.[b] There is wonderful joy ahead, even though you have to endure many trials for a little while. 7 These trials will show that your faith is genuine. It is being tested as fire tests and purifies gold—though your faith is far more precious than mere gold. So when your faith remains strong through many trials, it will bring you much praise and glory and honor on the day when Jesus Christ is revealed to the whole world. 8 You love him even though you have never seen him. Though you do not see him now, you trust him; and you rejoice with a glorious, inexpressible joy. 9 The reward for trusting him will be the salvation of your souls. 10 This salvation was something even the prophets wanted to know more about when they prophesied about this gracious salvation prepared for you. 11 They wondered what time or situation the Spirit of Christ within them was talking about when he told them in advance about Christ's suffering and his great glory afterward. 12 They were told that their messages were not for themselves, but for you. And now this Good News has been announced to you by those who preached in the power of the Holy Spirit sent from heaven. It is all so wonderful that even the angels are eagerly watching these things happen. Lyrics. BY KRISTENE MUELLER. LINK TO HER MYSPACE ON MY MYSPACE PROFILE SONG.
