The Psalms are a collection of 150 songs. They were written by David, Asaph, and a few others. #Messianic #Oikia
Songs are a medium to communicate joy. The Spirit of God flows in an atmosphere of joy.

#Messianic #Oikia
Singing is words with a melody. So the New Testament believer must sing the message of the gospel. We see Mariam and David putting to music the instructions pertaining to their season. #Messianic #Oikia
Songs are a way we can meditate on the reality prevailing around us. #Messianic #Oikia
14 For if I pray in a tongue, my spirit prays, but my understanding is unfruitful. 15 What is the conclusion then? I will pray with the spirit, and I will also pray with the understanding. I will sing with the spirit, and I will also sing with the understanding. #Messianic #Oikia
Ephesians 5:18 Do not get drunk on wine, which leads to debauchery. Instead, be filled with the Spirit, 19 speaking to one another with psalms, hymns, and songs from the Spirit. Sing and make music from your heart to the Lord, #Messianic #Oikia
The believer is charged with creating melody from his heart. It is his lifestyle. #Messianic #Oikia
Colossians 3:16 Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom, teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord. #Messianic #Oikia
A psalm in the new testament is a prophetic song that communicates the reality of what Christ has done and who the believer is. #Messianic #Oikia
A psalm contains instructions about what you can do through Christ and revelations about who you are. #Messianic #Oikia
A psalm per scripture is an ode, a song, inspired by the Spirit guided by a word of prophecy.

If we were to do a word study on the book of Psalms we would not finish in one year. Should we do this? @jideadekunle_ @ProlificFids @ntamylee #Messianic #Oikia
You should try this: when you listen to a message from your teacher, create a song out of it. Take the doctrine of Christ and make a melody out of it. #Messianic #Oikia
Songwriters must pay attention to theology. Music in the church today must be theology in a melody. We are to bless others with the psalms that come out of our Spirit. @TomiwaImmanuel @debb_orah_ @DefayoTheArtist @calledoutmusic @marthaagbakosi #Messianic #Oikia
The book of Psalms is so rich. They contain the revelation of Christ from birth to death. They contain the revelation of the new creation as well. There is much more prophetic content concerning Christ than other books of the bible. Care to check? @Asabae_ @phoenixafuye #Oikia
Gospel music is not a genre. It is a message. It is Christocentric. So it doesn't matter the genre whether rap or classical, whether Lecrae or Chioma Jesus or Jo Deep. #Messianic #Oikia
The arrangement of music in the church is primarily for it to be in agreement with the gospel of Christ. Jesus points to the Psalms as a testimony of himself. Let us see Luke 24. #Messianic #Oikia
25 Then He said to them, “O foolish ones, and slow of heart to believe in all that the prophets have spoken! 26 Ought not the Christ to have suffered these things and to enter into His glory?” #Messianic #Oikia
27 And beginning at Moses and all the Prophets, He [g]expounded to them in all the Scriptures the things concerning Himself. #Messianic #Oikia
44 Then He said to them, “These are the words which I spoke to you while I was still with you, that all things must be fulfilled which were written in the Law of Moses and the Prophets and the Psalms concerning Me.” #Messianic #Oikia
45 And He opened their understanding, that they might comprehend the Scriptures. #Messianic #Oikia
Jesus confirms that there was content in the Psalms concerning him showing that songs aren't just for entertainment. They can and should communicate spiritual manifestations as well. #Messianic #Oikia
If words are a vehicle of faith and power so also are songs. #Messianic #Oikia
The first #Messianic Psalm is Psalm 2.

This is echoed in Hebrews 1:5

Would you believe that? the resurrection of Jesus was prophesied in Psalm 2 by David. #Oikia ImageImage
The writer of Hebrews quotes David (Psalm 45:6) in Hebrews 1:8.

David saw Jesus' deity and humanity and put it in songs. David wrote the psalms to communicate concerning Christ. This is beautiful #Messianic #Oikia ImageImage
Psalm 2:8 contains lyrics that speak of gentiles (you and I) coming to salvation, a harvest of souls (sons). This was fulfilled in Matthew 28:18 and confirmed in Acts 1:8 #Messianic #Oikia ImageImageImage
The excellency of the name of Jesus is spoken of in Psalm 8:1 #Messianic #Oikia Image
and confirmed in Philippians 2:8-10 #Messianic #Oikia Image
Jesus in Matthew 21:16 quotes Psalms 8:2 referring to himself. Image
A New Testament Song should have revelation within. It should contain words of knowledge and wisdom for the benefit of the church. #Messianic #Oikia
Psalm 8:5-6 was quoted in Hebrews 2:8-9 and the writer points out that the psalm refers to Jesus Christ. #Messianic #Oikia ImageImage
Psalm 16 is a testimony of Christ in Hades. We see it echoed in Acts 2:24 - #Messianic #Oikia Image
Peter explains Psalm 16 and points it squarely as referring to Christ #Messianic #Oikia Image
