This morning I received from God a vision of a trumpet. Then at church a few hours later, I saw another horn instrument.
As far as interpretation goes, here are a few verses on the subject:
"Blow the trumpets in times of gladness, too, sounding them at your annual festivals and at the beginning of each month. And blow the trumpets over your burnt offerings and peace offerings. The trumpets will remind the LORD your God of his covenant with you. I am the LORD your God." Numbers 10:10
"And the Levites stood with the instruments of David, and the priests with the trumpets." 2 Chronicles 29:26
"Praise him with the sounding of the trumpet, praise him with the harp and lyre..." Psalm 150:3
"They entered Jerusalem and went to the temple of the LORD with harps and lyres and trumpets." 2 Chronicles 20:28
We need to be bold and intentional in coming to worship and praise the Lord...we don't want to have "believed in vain". To me, the trumpet I saw symbolized the importance of bold worship. Let's praise the Lord with the instrument He's given us! Praise is a great way to enter in to God. He accepts the worship of those made pure. He loves it!
And because He wants to be worshipped purely, "in spirit and in truth", the act of praising Him often leads to sanctification, as well. Through worship, the Holy Spirit makes us yielded to Himself and softens our heart. Our heart is softened and shaped pure, until the point comes when we realize that the poor in heart will see God.
Confirmed: This morning, after receiving the vision, a friend kept texting us recommending a Christian radio station.
Confirmed: Psalm 150 was read in Church today. Followed by a great worship service!
Confirmed: After worship, the Lord prompted a church friend to read 2nd Samuel, where David worships the Lord and becomes "even more undignified than this". Glory to God for a shameless love for Him!
