The key of the kingdom is a sound that comes from God Himself. When we are all in the same key, our sound will be in unison and will penetrate even the hardest hearts, darkest nights, and deepest wounds. The key of the kingdom is a sound of righteousness, peace and joy in the Holy Spirit (Romans 14:17). The Lord is wanting to tune us to His key, but so often we want to sing in our own key. The keys of self and sin take us out of tune and we do not sound good, nor do we work well with others when we are out of tune.

On this Christmas Day when the word became flesh and tabernacled/dwelt among us (John 1:14) the words of Jesus are ringing like church bells calling us to come together in agreement with the key of the kingdom of God. The prayer of Jesus in John 17 that we would be one as Jesus and His Father are one is still vibrating around the throne of God. To become One with God and each other, we must all be in the same key. We must put away sin and selfishness for there are no solos in the kingdom of God, we are a choir. We must listen to the voices of those around us and watch the direction of the Holy Spirit our conductor in front of us. For there is a sound the Father and Son wants to come from us.

When we sing together in a choral sound, there is power of the likes that will shake the ground. As we stay in tune with the key of the kingdom; as we listen to those around us; as we keep sin and selfishness far away; we will find ourselves surrounded with angels we have heard on high singing in excelsis deo! The goal of this choir is to release the sound of All Hail King Jesus for He is Majesty and we are to worship His Majesty. I hear the Lord wanting His prayer for us to be One answered this Christmas, for this is the gift we give Him together. May the key of kingdom be the key you live in and may we all love being a choir for His voice is like the sound of many waters (Ezekiel 43:2) not just one drop and I hear the sound of the abundance of rain (1 Kings 18:41) and it is in the key of the kingdom.
