El sermón “Una invitación a cantar” por Joel Coyoc aborda la importancia de alabar a Dios a través de la música, basándose en el Salmo 9:11-12. Coyoc argumenta que cantar es una expresión fundamental de la experiencia cristiana, que refleja la alegría y emoción de conocer a Dios, quien es el juez justo y el refugio en tiempos de angustia. A lo largo del mensaje, se hacen referencias a numerosos pasajes bíblicos, como Salmos 8 y 103, y Apocalipsis 5, que subrayan la grandeza de las obras de Dios y su constante cuidado por su pueblo. La relevancia doctrinal del sermón radica en que la alabanza no solo es un mandato, sino también una respuesta natural y gozosa al entendimiento de la redención y la soberanía divina en la vida del creyente, reforzando así la práctica del culto en comunidad y la proclamación del Evangelio.

The Bible encourages believers to sing praises to God, celebrating His wonders and justice as seen in Psalms.
The Bible, particularly in Psalms, calls believers to sing praises to God with all their hearts. For instance, Psalm 9:11-12 invites us to declare His marvelous works among the nations and to sing to His name. This act of singing is not simply a command but an enthusiastic invitation reflecting the joy and gratitude that arise from recognizing God's sovereignty and grace. Singing becomes a powerful expression of emotional response towards God's justice, His miraculous deeds, and His continual presence in our lives.
Psalm 9:11-12
Scripture assures us that God does not forget those who are afflicted and remembers the blood of His people.
The assurance that God remembers His people is deeply rooted in Scripture, particularly in verses like Psalm 9:12, which states that He does not forget the cry of the afflicted. Throughout the Bible, God demonstrates His covenant faithfulness and mercy by consistently remembering those whom He has chosen. He is depicted as the One who demands justice, and thus, He will not forget the suffering of His faithful ones. This assurance provides comfort to believers, and we can rest in the truth that God has a plan for restoration and remembrance of His redeemed, ultimately fulfilled through the sacrificial work of Jesus Christ.
Psalm 9:12, Genesis 9:4-6, 1 Peter 2:9
Singing is crucial for Christians as it expresses our joy, proclaims God's works, and demonstrates our unity in worship.
Singing plays a vital role in Christian worship because it allows us to collectively express joy and gratitude to God. In Psalm 9:11, we are encouraged to sing to the Lord, reflecting our thankfulness for His marvelous deeds. Furthermore, singing serves as a proclamation of God's works, not only for our edification but also as a testimony to others. It reinforces the unity of believers, as we gather to glorify God together. Through the practice of singing, we remind ourselves and each other of God's faithfulness, leading to deeper worship and shared experiences of grace within the community of faith.
