“If They Be Silent The Rocks Will Shout,” ~ an high energy instrumental song on my new release “All Glory To God Forever.”

This song refers to a story in the Gospel of Luke:

And they brought him to Jesus: and they cast their garments upon the colt,

and they set Jesus thereon.

And as He went, they spread their clothes in the way.

And when He was come nigh, even now at the descent of the mount of Olives,

the whole multitude of the disciples began to rejoice and praise God with a loud voice

for all the mighty works that they had seen;

Saying, “Blessed be the King that cometh in the name of the Lord:

peace in heaven, and glory in the highest.”

And some of the Pharisees from among the multitude said unto Him,

“Master, rebuke thy disciples.”

And Jesus answered and said unto them,

“I tell you that, if these should hold their peace,

the stones would immediately cry out.”

Luke 19:35-40 KJV

Although the religious authorities had witnessed thousands of astonishing miracles performed by the Lord Jesus Christ in the name of His Heavenly Father over the past three years of His ministry, they refused to believe that He was from God.

Although Jesus always gave glory for everything He did to His Heavenly Father, and said He could do nothing apart from His Father, and though He taught sound doctrine with authority from the Scriptures, the religious leaders were determined to slander Him among the people and attribute His power to work miracles to the Devil.

DESPISED AND REJECTED

The religious leaders refused to accept Jesus Christ because He told them the Truth. He told them that they were corrupted hypocrites who were far from God. They looked pious on the outside, but were sinful and needed saving on the inside. They were self righteous and proud, and did not believe Jesus because they trusted that their good deeds were enough to save them.

They also put great confidence in their Jewish heritage. Because of these things they believed they could never be lost. Jesus told them that they were blind and deaf.

He said that if they did not accept Him then they would die in their sins.

However, they would rather kill Him than believe such a thing. And so they unmercifully had Jesus crucified on a cross.

Jesus Christ, the Son of God, who had never sinned, suffered and died for the sins of not only those who put Him to death, but for all humanity. Though He died, He rose again on the third day. The Father restored Him to life and gave Him a glorious new eternal body.

Because He died for our sins that we might have eternal life, not only should the rocks shout, so also should the rivers and trees, and all the earth cry aloud and give Him praise and glory and honor for His sacrifice that we might be forgiven for our sins and be cleansed by His spotless blood shed on the cross for us.

Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name: That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth; And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.

Philippians 2:9-11 – KJV

MUSICAL CONVERSATIONS

Prayer is a conversation between The Lord and me.

All of the music the Lord gives me is birthed in prayer and worship as well as in the Word of God.

The Lord recently revealed to me that the published songs He has given me over the past six years are not primarily for entertainment purposes, but He has sent them to be musical dialogues through which He can speak to our hearts by His Holy Spirit who inspired them.

To enter into the Lord’s musical conversation, first I start with the song’s title, listen to the music in prayer before the Lord, taking my bible along with me, and ask the Lord Jesus to speak to my heart what He wants to say to me through His word.

Jesus gave a promise to His disciples. He said that His Holy Spirit would guide them as they sought Him.

“But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in

My name, He shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance,

whatsoever I have said unto you…John 14:26 KJV

Howbeit when He, the Spirit of truth, is come, He will guide you into all truth:

for He shall not speak of Himself; but whatsoever He shall hear,

that shall He speak: and He will shew you things to come.” John 16:13 – KJV

Most all of my published song titles have biblical references.

The prayer song titles and hymns have lyrics that are straightforward. And all of my prayer songs have been inspired by the Bible, mostly the psalms. The scriptures that inspired each of them are in the prayer song books that feature the lyrics. It will inevitably be the Word of God that the Lord will use to speak to your heart as you sit down to listen to His songs. For that is what gave them birth.

How an individual song might apply to your personal situation is a matter for private prayer between you and Christ. He will make the matter plain to you. Trust the Lord Jesus.

Again, these are personal, holy conversations between you and the Lord Jesus Christ. Please keep them private between you and the Lord. That is the meaning of holy. Keep holy things between yourself and God.

Jesus said, “But thou, when thou prayest, enter into thy closet, and when thou hast shut thy door, pray to thy Father which is in secret; and thy Father which seeth in secret shall reward thee openly.”~ Matthew 6:6 – KJV

You may want to check some of things the Lord inspired me to make for a particular song because He never had me create something to no purpose.

For example, the Lord sometimes gave me a blog, scripture painting, or a video to include with His music. Again those things have their origin in the Word of God.

JUST A PIECE OF THE LOAF…

Perhaps you may only be able to hear clips of the songs.

May you know that it is not necessary to purchase any of the Lord’s songs.

The clips are usually long enough to hear what the instrumental songs are like. As for the songs with lyrics, again it is not necessary to purchase anything.

You can always borrow the prayer song ebooks through Kindle lending in order to discover their lyrics.

Find out what libraries the prayer song ebooks are in and borrow them that way.

I have made some of my prayer songs into music videos with the lyrics printed on them.

Nothing that is God’s will is to no purpose, just as your life is absolutely God’s will and you have a divine purpose.

“Wherefore be ye not unwise, but understanding what the will of the Lord is.” ~ Ephesians 5: 17 (KJV)

The things that the Lord has had me produce and publish these past several years have been gifts and messages from His heart.

He never fails to speak volumes to me when I take the time to sit down and allow Him to converse about what He wanted to say to me through a song He’s given me.

It’s amazing how many biblical references the Holy Spirit really will guide us to when we stay quiet before the Lord and listen to Him!

“The Lord is my portion, saith my soul; therefore will I hope in Him.

The Lord is good unto them that wait for Him, to the soul that seeketh Him.

It is good that a man should both hope and quietly wait for the salvation of the Lord.” ~ Lamentations 3:24-26 (KJV)

I’m so thankful for this honor of being able to do our Heavenly Father’s work despite so many physical challenges.

These only serve to prove that it is Christ’s power doing the work in and through me. Otherwise there would be no way I could do these things.

“It is not by might, nor by power, but by My Spirit says the Lord of Hosts…” Zechariah 4:6

May God bless you and speak to your hearts, comfort, and encourage you through all of His holy songs and gifts He has given me the privilege to share with you.

Love, peace, and grace,

Suzanne ❤️
