Building 429 “Hark! The Herald Angels Sing” (Devotional)

Lifter Today , , ,

So many songs in my history have been just that… songs that we sang about the Glory of God and about the anticipated arrival of the baby Jesus. Honestly a lot of the language in these old classics was lost on me until we decided to record “Hark, the Herald Angels Sing.” I decided maybe it was time for me to look into what the title of the song meant. So away I went to the dictionary and guess what I found out? The title of the song literally means “Listen attentively…. An angel that carries important news is singing.” After all of my years of singing the song I had never thought about what the title even meant. Luke chapter 2 verses 8 -14 delivers the account of what the angels actually sang …

We were touring like crazy and played a show in Canada. Afterwards, I had to drive through the night to Ottawa with no sleep after four shows, fly from Canada to Miami to Haiti for three days.

He’s my Michael Jordan… he’ll never quit, never doubt, and never surrender… then Satan says “cool so the bet is on?” God says “Yes, but you can’t kill JOB” I dare say NO ONE WOULD WANT TO BE JOB. Can you imagine?

Building 429 – “Revolution” (Devotional)

Lifter Today , ,

Sometimes a question creeps into my head. ΓÇ£Why would the world want the Jesus that they see in me?ΓÇ¥ I think itΓÇÖs a fair one to ask. Why would they want what we have? IΓÇÖve got to be honest, many times when I look at those who are proclaiming the VICTORY IN JESUS, I donΓÇÖt see anything that resembles victory at all. In fact I see a whole lot of people that tend to live in defeat. They say things like, ΓÇ£itΓÇÖs ok brother IΓÇÖm just passing throughΓÇ¥ or they quote my song ΓÇ£where I belongΓÇ¥ and say things like ΓÇ£IΓÇÖm just glad IΓÇÖm not home yet.ΓÇ¥ REALLY GUYS? WeΓÇÖre really stumped as to why non-believers donΓÇÖt want to hear about Jesus?
