WHO CAN BE A PSALMIST?

Everyone (in Christ) should practice the act of singing psalm. It won’t cost you anything because you really don’t need to know much of music before you sing or write a psalm (if you can talk you can sing). First, a psalm is an inspired poem or song. Here I mean such is inspired by the Holy Ghost. I believe everyone should practice the act. A lot of things can inspire people to write and sing but psalms are Spirit inspired. A psalms is therefore given to comfort, encourage, edify and blesses. A psalm is a song that is born out of the spirit.

A psalmist is someone who practices the act of written inspired poem or song. It is not some set of people’s job. 
The reason why I would say anybody could school their selves to practice the act of singing psalm is that is one of the modality of been filled with the Holy Ghost.

Ephesians 5:18-19 and be not drunk with wine, wherein is excess; but be filled with the Spirit; Speaking to yourselves in psalms and …making melody in your heart to the Lord; 

The scripture above was written to believer not to musicians, in fact to the church in a large city. In here all were encourage to practicing the act of singing psalms as a modality to be filled of the spirit. He was not writing to singers there.  That means you don’t have to be a professional singer before you can be involved in singing psalm. The beauty of this is that the melody comes from the recreated heart.  A psalmist a song and a poem writer, but the truth is you are a better psalmist if you know how to sing. And the ministry is seen obviously in a singer/musician.

You can add if you have any info as touching this. Bless you.
