| Matthew 28:19-20 — "The Great Commission" |
Hello,
This will be a musical landmark for this blog—its first song with rap in it. : )
But this track is too awesome not to share—and it's creator is FULL of faith in Jesus and the Fire of His Holy Spirit!

| Screen Capture From One Trigga Video - Take Me Around The World - (with additional text added to it) |
Recently rapper/musician—One Trigga—was interviewed on Salsa - TBN's "Latin" channel.
He told a bit about growing up in a rough neighborhood and selling drugs—but in his heart he was searching for something more.
He related that one day he noticed a woman on the street corner pacing back and forth—and she was "talking to the air." Then, she came straight for him—and declared that he was "called" and she was there to pray for him.
As she prayed—One Trigga said "yes" to the LORD.
--------------------------
Although he turned to God then—a change in his life wasn't immediately obvious.
He passionately pursued a music career and began having "success" with YouTube videos he was posting—and record labels came calling.
He had a number one hit in the UK—and performed on BET—but says fame was only an illusion—and he was homeless and broke at that time.
----------------------------------------
Yet—in his heart he was turning more and more to God—but was finding there was a cost—and he was being abandoned by the record industry—and family and friends—and felt completely alone.
A friend offered him a place to stay—(in his gym)—and it was there—at his "lowest" moment—that he completely surrendered to God.
---------------------------------------
From then on his transformation was dramatic—and his genuine enthusiasm about the Lord and his ministry was obvious in the interview.
At the end of the program—he performed his song, Take Me Around The World—(a reference to the Great Commission given to us by Jesus)—and his music video of it is posted below.
So give it a spin—and let it speak to your heart about our awesome and wonderful Lord Jesus!
Take Me Around The World - Lyrics
Big dreams—Big visions—Small budget,
I know the feeling when you're trying and it don't happen,
I know the feeling when you're broke and you can't have it,
I'm seein' stars—they still shootin'—I can't catch it,
I'm really hopin' that things change,
Thinkin' that you winnin'—but you playin' the same game—Now run away,
I'm still prayin'—I'm hopin' the pain goes—
I'm trapped in my own mind—the world is so cold—
They need hope, Tryin' to make a change with this music,
Tryin' to make 'em all use their brain when they listen,
Nothin' else to lose—Put yourself in my position,
They say they want the truth—but satisfied with fiction—
Chorus
Life's but tough,
And I'm ready,
Nothin' else to lose,
So I'm wavin' bye—
Take me around the world—(repeats)
Break—
No one knows my story,
Or how it's supposed to end,
Take me 'round the world,
And never bring me back again—
Too many years of bein' trapped,
I deserve a chance,
They say they really want to change,
But they really can't,
Don't be discouraged by the disses,
Instead be persistent—be consistent
It's going to take commitment,
I know it's hard to deal with the envy,
Know to stand tall when the world is against me,
I know to keep calm when the world in a frenzy,
They say they keep talkin'—but it doesn't offend me,
Cause all I do is think BIG—Think BIG—Never small—
Think BIG—Think BIG—Never small—
You can say that they real—doesn't mean that they real,
You can tell when it falls apart,
What you thought—
Chorus
Break
Take Me around the world—

Thanks so much for stopping by!
May God Richly Bless you!
Jesus is LORD!
Time is growing short!
Seek Him!
Seek Him!

9 If you declare with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,” and
believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.
