Introduction
From Genesis to Revelation, we see a definite pattern of worship ordained by God, ancient yet eternal. This book presents a clear picture, based on scripture that reveals the major significance that is felt in the heavenly realm when instruments are used symbolically during times of praise, worship and intercession on this earthly plane.
Worship and praise were never meant to be passive. We see that Old and New Testament believers who were pursuing God were aggressive in praise and worship. They were completely surrendered to the will of God for their lives, no matter what the circumstances looked like. The worse the circumstances, the more aggressive in praise they were!
When the Israelites praised, the presence of the Lord filled their physical surroundings. As the Lord directed them, they used some of their instruments in spiritual warfare against their enemies. They understood the reason for their victory in battle was due to their humble dependence on the Lord, not upon their skill. As they moved in faith, the Lord and His hosts showed up and fought and won their battles for them.
My prayer is that as you read this book, your heart and your spirit will be stirred to worship God in new ways.
