See, you prophetic praise harps are readily available on the Internet.
"David, together with the commanders of the army, set apart some of the sons of Asaph, Heman and Jeduthun for the ministry of prophesying, accompanied by harps, lyres and cymbals."
Jeduthun "prophesied, using the harp in thanking and praising the Lord."
1 Chron. 25:1-5
As we see here and we shall see in other scripture, there is some tie between music and prophesy. A relationship we don't acknowledged - or, at least, the fundamental tradition I'm a part of - today. Oddly, we do acknowledged the relationship between music and thanking and praising the Lord though we don't extend this to prophesy or music to the using of a harp.
I say we...but I don't feel a need to restrict God in this way. I leave God to do what He will do without limitation. I think our stand on music and miracles is more a historical reaction against the beliefs and traditions of others than a stand on what we believe for ourselves. Lord knows.
Did Christ's coming do away with these scriptures? Or just our sin?
