It surprises me that it is not always apparent to the preacher of the Word that the musical support surrounding his proclamation can significantly amplify and punctuate the message God has given for the congregation that weekend.
For example, I recently spoke on “How to Be Filled with the Holy Spirit”. But those who follow the ministry of Walk in the Word would be unable to appreciate the volume of the message’s impact without knowing how it was book-ended by these two Vertical Church Band songs, led here by Meredith Andrews.
COME HOLY SPIRIT
SPIRIT OF THE LIVING GOD
Because this blog was created to support pastors who prepare worship services every weekend, I wanted to encourage you to think that maybe the sermon isn’t done when the sermon is “done.” Maybe the sermon isn’t done until other giftedness has been prepared to surround that proclamation with supportive worship.
Let’s keep giving our best to this important task. Preach the Word this weekend.
– James
