Music appeals to just about everyone, and each person has a voice for singing, if only in private. Can you imagine a world without music? Music appeals to our heart and soul, mysteriously lifting our mood. Music has been instrumental in leading millions to Christ while giving others a desire to live for him.
Temptation is another convincing and powerful voice, but it can seduce only those who are willing to be conquered. The voice of Christ Jesus will never be silent, regardless of temptation’s effort to squelch it. When we submit to temptation's voice by shutting out God’s voice, we are in danger of experiencing severe consequences.
Listen to Isaiah 30:20-21. “Although the Lord gives you the bread of adversity and the waters of affliction, you will hear God’s voice behind you saying, ‘No, this is the way, walk here.’” Proverbs 2:10 follows with, “For wisdom and truth will enter the very center of your being, filling you with life and joy.”

Yes, he’s our God, and we’re the people he pastures, the
flock he feeds. Drop everything and listen, listen as [God] speaks.
