🎢 Beethoven Symphony No. 5

 



During WWII Winston Churchill used Beethoven's Fifth Symphony as his "victory" music which was played throughout the war as they faced hardship, going into difficult battles against the enemy, encouraging the soldiers and citizens of England and other nations.   (Many will recognize this movement.)  

The music is strong, joyous, overcoming just as our lives through God should be as we live on this present earth.

Evil spirits often fled when skillful music was played to people in the Bible.  And the people of God praised God by playing all manner of instruments as they rejoiced.

2 Samuel 6:5   And David and all the house of Israel played before the LORD on all manner of instruments made of fir wood, even on harps, and on psalteries, and on timbrels, and on cornets, and on cymbals.

By music we express great joy and victory and power and praise.

And by these scriptures in the Bible we see when David played skillfully upon his harp, evil spirits left king Saul. (I Sam. 16)

Just enjoy the magnificent sounds made by very talented individuals.
