Most times, we dont appreciate those that work or serve us in one way or the other. To be specific, Our Instrumentalists!
some times we think they are there because they have no where else to go to, maybe they are hungry and confused, have no focus or direction in life, that's why they are there.'Thats not true.
Many times we forget who they really are, their lives, and the fact that could be somewhere else, but chose to be there with you. Your help ministers are not only those that support your ministry financially.
Some church heads pay no attention to them. Regardless of the fact that a lot of them help us manage our instruments... even when it is obvious that that musical instrument is due for a change, we ignore the requests and ask them to manage.
How long can a pastor manage a bad microphone?
How long can we sit and enjoy church service under the rain, while the roof is leaking.?
when another instrumentalist misuses a musical instrument that is due for change, must that be the only time we remember and appreciate them? May we not loose the people that God has placed around s as help ministers in HIS vineyard... Amen!
We come to church, we enjoy good gospel music everyday (for those of us that have one church service or the other to attend everyday or almost everyday of the week.) and we don't care about the vessels God is using. It's true that our service should be unto the Lord, and their reward is from God. Will anything go wrong if they are appreciated by the body of Christ? Especially those that the Lord has brought them to (church heads/Pastors)
Its so discouraging in some churches: after an awesome praise and worship session/choir ministration. and its time for the word, then the moderator comes up to say"the time we have all been waiting for" or "the most important part of today's service is now.
Haaa!!!!
Says who! we forget that right from the opening prayer, sunday school, praise worship session, etc. The presence of God is there. and the move of God can be felt anytime during the service. You cant only receive during the word session.... Pls lets understand that every part of church service is important, and should not be over-looked.
Today, I appreciate all church instrumentalists, all over the world. God bless you for your labour of love. May God Almighty continue to uplift you, equip you, anoint you more to play skillfully to the glory of God the Father.and favor you.
I dedicate these words to a great friend, an awesome brother from another mother Samuel Akinbosoye. The #1 Drummer @ Wordbase Assembly HQ, has been there for more than 15 years.(that's loyalty)
WOW! You are one of a kind. I love you with the love God, and I know that eyes have not seen, neither has it entered into the heart of man what God will do for you.
Feel free to nominate any of your church instrumentalists in the comment box. His/Her name, Church, etc... Let them know you appreciate them. we'll give them an award here and recognize them as one of those behind good gospel music in churches. Pls note: its not only about the skills, it includes, humility, loyalty, heart for God, passion for the instrument he/she plays.
Cheers!
