Music and media are important parts of a worship service. Can you imagine showing up with nothing to look at, no one to lead you in song or no music?</p><br /><p>Musicians often feel judged, unappreciated and misunderstood. Pleasing the pastor is never ending battle. And God forbid if they ask for a paycheck. Rather than make things more difficult, let’s rally together to call on the Holy Spirit to fully endow our men and women minstrels.</p><br /><p>I recently read a great article called 3 Ways To Serve The Church As a Drummer. It offered some great ideas for how we can minister to those who minister to use week after week:</p><br /><h4><span style='color: #008080;'>Pray for your musicians.</span><br/><br /><span style='color: #008080;'>Pray that God would continually mold them into the kind of leaders that God wants to use.</span><br/><br /><span style='color: #008080;'>Pray that God would bless their children and marriages as they lead us.</span><br/><br /><span style='color: #008080;'>Pray that God would give them vision for the churches music ministry.</span><br/><br /><span style='color: #008080;'>Pray that God would persevere them in the faith.</span> </h4><br /><p>Okay, I’m done writing. Stop now and put this into action. PRAY.</p><br /><p>The post <a href="http://ift.tt/1xMeySq" rel="nofollow">Pray for the Musicians</a> appeared first on <a href="http://ift.tt/1AxaMgG" rel="nofollow">Pastor Terrell L</a>.</p><br /></div>
