“Prayer - Singing”

Sep 23, 2026  •  Pastor Earl Dunn

What if one of the most powerful tools in our prayer life is something we already do every day without thinking? Psalm 100 calls us to come before God's presence with singing, and that simple invitation opens up a world of spiritual depth we may have been overlooking. This message walks us through the idea that singing is not just a warm-up to worship -- it is worship itself. From Paul and Silas singing at midnight in a prison cell to the heavenly choir in Revelation 5 lifting a new song around the throne, scripture consistently presents singing as a direct line into God's presence. We explore what it means to sing psalms, hymns, and spiritual songs as described in both Colossians 3 and Ephesians 5, and why that variety matters for our faith. The message reminds us that singing is not reserved for those with polished voices -- it is an act of the heart, a joyful noise that God is listening for. If we have ever felt like our prayers were missing something, this exploration of singing as a spiritual discipline might be exactly what we needed to hear.
