Can we get fired up listening to a song?

Question:
Can we get fired up listening to a song?

Answer:
Maybe, but it’s probably emotion. What we really need is to abide in Him. (1 John 2:28, John 15:1-5). We can’t bear fruit unless we abide in Him. He is with us wherever we go and we should have His mind about everything in our lives (Philippians 2:5). There’s a difference between music being our source of strength and a source of encouragement. It can be a way to glorify Christ. But we should ask: “Would Jesus listen to this?” and “Is the music bringing me closer to the Lord or not?”
