Bring on the Pipes!

About now the stage of our lives is overflowing with blessings.  Shall we see what else is awaiting us?

On the eleventh day of Christmas, my true love sent to me Eleven pipers piping,

Enter the pipes. 
Of course we need more music with all that is happening on the stage of our life!

“Praise Him with castanets and dance, praise Him with banjo and flute.  Psalm 150:4 

That was from the Amplified Bible.

Now we will uncover the meaning of there being eleven pipers!

This number stands for judgment. 
So why would anyone be blowing into their pipe for this? 

To celebrate the fact that,

“There is therefore now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus.”  Romans 8:1

Our True Love paid the price and we need not fear judgment!

Yes, no condemnation!  So leap with joy!  Celebrate!!

 “Nevertheless do not rejoice in this, that the spirits are subject to you, but rejoice that your names are recorded in heaven.”  Luke 10:20

Meditate on this wonderful passage: Philippians 4:4-9

"Rejoice in the LORD always; again I will say, rejoice!  Let your fore bearing spirit be known to all men.  The LORD is near.  Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God.  And the peace of God, which surpasses all comprehension, shall guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.  Finally, brethren, whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is of good repute, if there is any excellence and if anything worthy of praise, let your mind dwell on these things.  The things you have learned and received and heard and seen in me, practice these things; and the God of peace shall be with you."

                               

"How blessed are the people who know the joyful sound!  O LORD, they walk in the light of Your countenance.    In Your Name they rejoice all the day, and by Your righteousness they are exalted."  Psalm 89:15-16
