    God speaking through songs

    Exactly my thoughts. If the songs bring me closer to God and make me think of him more then they couldn’t be from the devil. I read a blog a lady wrote that said God definitely speaks through secular music. She said he speaks in numerous ways and will meet you where you are at. I do listen to a...

    Do you believe God speaks through songs?

    I know this is an old post, but so glad I found this! I feel like God has been speaking to me through songs as well. They usually pop in my head in the middle of the night. However, was not 100% sure the songs were from God, but your post helps solidly this. Following are some of the songs I...

    Living with The Holy Spirit

    Frank, I am having trouble discerning whether songs I am receiving in the middle of the night are from God. I have been seeking him a lot lately. I usually a get phrase or tune from a song that I have heard before, but hadn’t just listened to. Most of the songs are secular, but some are...

    Living with The Holy Spirit

    Hi Chris. You mentioned that the Holy Spirit would send songs your way. I have had this happen recently over the last few months. Most of the time the songs are secular but sometimes they are Christian songs or hymns. They always have a positive/spiritual message. A phrase or tune from the song...

    Is all music spiritually neutral ???

    I have been seeking God more over the last year. Since then, I have been having random songs pop into my head (usually in the middle of the night) that I thought were from God, but now I am not so sure. Most of the songs were secular (some are Christian or hymns) but had a spiritual and/or...

    My $.02 on music

    I agree. I listen to mostly Christian music now, but still like to listen to some oldies from the 60s, 70s, and 80s. Your Love Keeps Lifting me Higher by Jackie Wilson makes me think of God’s love. Also the song Turn, Turn, Turn by the Byrds is mostly scripture from the Bible.

    God speaking through songs

    Thanks for replying. I do listen to mostly Christian music now. Still trying to decipher if the secular songs are from God. It is strange that they just happen to pop in my head in the middle of the night and have a message of love if they were not from him. Sometimes it is Christian songs or an...

    God speaking through songs

    Thanks for replying. Yes, I almost exclusively listen to praise music now, but used to listen to mostly secular music. He has also sent me praise songs. One from Jeremy Camp called “Getting Started” and “River of Life” by Mac Powell. Sometimes just the tune to a hymn pops in my head, which I...

    God speaking through songs

    Over the past several months I feel like God has been speaking to me through songs. These songs usually pop in my head in the middle of the night. The songs are ones I have heard of but are not songs I have recently or regularly listened to. The songs are mostly secular, but almost always have a...

    Quality time with God

    I struggle with this too. I spend time in the Bible every morning (a chapter a day), but struggle as to what do pray or say to God after that. I do feel like he has been speaking to me recently through songs, so I try to listen to those songs often and that is a way of spending time with him.
