As I watched these talented people sing this glorious song, I couldn't help but get a little choked up. I then wondered how many of them really believed what they were singing.
For this reason also, God highly exalted Him, and bestowed on Him the name which is above every name, so that at the name of Jesus EVERY KNEE WILL BOW, of those who are in heaven and on earth and under the earth, and that every tongue will confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father. Philippians 2:9-11HT: SermonAudio
That was well done, and well video-ed.
ReplyDeleteIt is probably enjoyed by many unbelievers as well, because of it's melody and harmonies.
But, it gives me goose-bumps.
"For unto us a Child is born, unto us a Son is given, and the government shall be upon His shoulder; and His name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The Mighty God, The Everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace"
When I read that you got all choked up from watching it, I confess, I thought you were a bit oversensitive about the whole thing but when I decided to watch the video for myself... I couldn't help it! Glimpse of heaven?
ReplyDeleteOh! And Canada for the win! :P
ReplyDelete1Ch 16:28 Ascribe to the LORD, O clans of the peoples, ascribe to the LORD glory and strength!
ReplyDelete1Ch 16:29 Ascribe to the LORD the glory due his name; bring an offering and come before him! Worship the LORD in the splendor of holiness;
1Ch 16:30 tremble before him, all the earth; yes, the world is established; it shall never be moved.
1Ch 16:31 Let the heavens be glad, and let the earth rejoice, and let them say among the nations, "The LORD reigns!"
1Ch 16:32 Let the sea roar, and all that fills it; let the field exult, and everything in it!
1Ch 16:33 Then shall the trees of the forest sing for joy before the LORD, for he comes to judge the earth.
1Ch 16:34 Oh give thanks to the LORD, for he is good; for his steadfast love endures forever!
God has left it to the Church to raise the banner high for all the creation to see and so come to know:
The Lord Reigns!
Natamllc Said: "The Lord Reigns!"
ReplyDeleteIndeed He does.
That video made me long for the day every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord.
Amazing -- just amazing. I can't believe how touched I was by that video.
ReplyDeleteKing Jesus, reign over my heart!
I have considered this from a Reformed aspect that all will glorify God. Some will do so willingly where their will agrees with God's will so that it is God's will and not their own. Others will do so quite against their will. But God will be glorified.
ReplyDeleteI can't help but wonder at the world rulers who have despised Christ over the centuries who have citizens that hail Christ as their sovereign in such a way. There have certainly been a few rulers who have welcomed His wisdom in their earthly rules. Praise God for them all.
