Dedication Music II Chron. Again, when Hezekiah cleansed the temple in his day and began to offer his sacrifices in the temple, the musicians played an important role. And Hezekiah commanded to offer the burnt offering upon the altar. And when the burnt offering began, the song of the Lord began also with the trumpets, and with the instruments ordained by David king of Israel. Notice the three results of David's music.
Music has spiritual power, as well as the ability to affect our minds and our bodies.
Not only was music in the Old Testament used for worship, it also participated in warfare on occasion. Their songs were not pleas for help, nor were they songs extoling their own prowess. The songs they sang praised the Lord and the beauty of holiness. When the Lord saw that the people were serious about praising Him, He won the victory for them. Hebrew poetry takes one idea and states that idea in two different ways.
