Given what's happening in the world today, it is difficult to imagine that there will be a time that all nations unite in peace. Even more challenging is trying to imagine the thrill we'll feel when this happens. That promised moment of uniting in peace, and the excitement this will bring, is the heart of "The Mountain of Yahweh," by NARROWAY. This is one of the songs on NARROWAY's latest album, a song where the artists try to picture what will happen when the Messiah returns.
Based on biblical prophecies, the song is about how people will be streaming to Yahweh's mountain, a gathering where all will come to worship and learn His ways. Don't mistake the use of the word "all" as an indicator that this is still so far away and nearly impossible. It is a promise that is going to happen, and when it does, it will still come as a surprise to so many! "To the mountain of Yahweh go, // Where His truth and mercy flow." And just as important, the lyrics emphasize the peace that He will bring to the world, "No more war—He breaks the spear," and the world will be under His reign.
The song reminds us that we don't need to wait until He comes again! It invites us to join this future gathering by taking action right here and now! The lyrics ask, "Are you ready to walk His path?" The message is clear: Yeshua reigns! We can follow Him today to the place where justice stays, the heart of Yahweh's ways. May we follow His ways and walk His path for us daily.
