TobyMac - Everything

Psalm 19:1-4 — NASA Hubble Telescope Image

Hi!

As mentioned in a recent post — I heard several songs in a row I really liked on a Christian radio station in Phoenix, Arizona — and I've been posting them here as time allows

Today I'll share a TobyMac song: "Everything."

----------------------------------

I love the way he infuses his music with a dash of hip-hop and a pinch current pop sounds - but with words that point to the Creator of the Universe.

"Everything" begins with a little almost spoken word rap — and then moves to a catchy melody and lyric.

---------------------------------

Hope you enjoy this as well!  Let it whisper into your heart about the Love, Mercy, Forgiveness, Peace, and Healing offered to us by faith in Jesus!

Everything - Lyrics

I'm captivated, I'll say it
I'm on a whole new intrigue
My space invaded, upgraded
I hear You talking to me
It's in the boom of the thunder, it's in the cool of the rain
And I'll say I don't ever want to get away

Tonight is beautiful
It's got my mind on You
And everywhere I turn is a reminder

I see You in everything, all day
And every beat of my heart keeps reminding me
I see You in every little thing, all day
No matter where I go I know Your love is finding me
I see You in everything
You're all up in everything

My soul's awaken
I'm taken by all the beauty You bring
You got it blarin', I'm starin'
Love watching You do Your thing
There's no mistaken Your style
No mistaken Your touch
I see the grand, I see the subtle of Your love

Lord, I see You in everything, all day
And every beat of my heart keeps reminding me
I see You in every little thing, all day
No matter where I go I know Your love is finding me
It's finding me in everything, all day
And every beat of my heart keeps reminding me
I see You in every little thing, all day
No matter where I go I know Your love is finding me

Tonight is beautiful
It's got my mind on You
And everywhere I turn is a reminder
From the sparkle in her eyes to the starlit open skies
You bring my heart to life, fill me with wonder

Oh, I can see Your love, Your love in everything
And that's why You'll always be my everything
Yeah, I can see Your love, Your love in everything
And that's why You'll always be my everything

Thanks so much for stopping by! 
 
May God Richly Bless you!

Seek Him!

✝   Romans 10:9-10

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.

10 For it is with your heart that you believe and are justified, and it is with your mouth that you profess your faith and are saved. 

---------------------------------

If you've made this decision — believed it in your heart and confessed it with your mouth — let God speak to you by reading the Bible — and seek out fellowship with others who also believe.

Pour out your heart to God in Prayer (simply speaking to Him in reverence) — asking Him to reveal Himself to you and to provide for your needs.

Life in Jesus is the best decision you will ever make.

God Bless!

Jeremiah 32:17

Starry Night - Lyrics

From the birds that sing
In the tallest trees
To the human life
Of you and me

From the desert sands
To the place we stand
He's God of all
He is everything

I'm giving my life to the only One
Who makes the moon reflect the sun
Every starry night
That was His design

I'm giving my life to the only Son
Who was and is and yet to come
Let the praises ring
'Cause He is everything
'Cause He is everything

From the autumn leaves
That will ride the breeze
To the faith it takes
To pray and see

From the painted sky
To my plank filled eye
He's God of all
He is everything, whoa

I'm giving my life to the only One
Who makes the moon reflect the sun
Every starry night
That was His design

I'm giving my life to the only Son
Who was and is and yet to come
Let the praises ring
'Cause He is everything
Everything

Hallelujah, hallelujah
I believe, oh, oh
Hallelujah, hallelujah
I believe

I'm giving my life to the only One
Who makes the moon reflect the sun
On that starry night
He changed my life

I'm giving it all to the only Son
Who gave me hope when I had none
So let the praises ring

I'm giving my life to the only One
Who makes the moon reflect the sun
Every starry night
That was His design

I'm giving my life to the only Son
Who was and is and yet to come
Every angel sings
That He is heavenly

So let the praises ring
'Cause He is everything

Mercy Me - Homesick

Revelation 21:3-5

Hi!

Recently I was flipping through Christian music stations in my car.

I finally landed on one — and I was Blessed by hearing several songs in a row that I really loved — and will be posting several as soon as possible.

--------------------------

I'll start with Homesick by Mercy Me which really spoke to my heart — about that longing to finally be with Jesus  — surrounded by His Perfect Love and Peace for all eternity.

I can't wait!

I pray the words to this beautiful song will also speak into your heart about God's Love, Forgiveness, Mercy, and Healing!

Lyrics are under the "music-only" video below.

Homesick - Lyrics

You're in a better place, I've heard a thousand times
And at least a thousand times I've rejoiced for you
But the reason why I'm broken, the reason why I cry
Is how long must I wait to be with you

I close my eyes and I see your face
If home's where my heart is then I'm out of place
Lord, won't you give me strength to make it through somehow
I've never been more homesick than now

Help me Lord cause I don't understand your ways
The reason why I wonder if I'll ever know
But, even if you showed me, the hurt would be the same
Cause I'm still here so far away from home

I close my eyes and I see your face
If home's where my heart is then I'm out of place
Lord, won't you give me strength to make it through somehow
I've never been more homesick than now

In Christ, there are no goodbye
And in Christ, there is no end
So I'll hold onto Jesus with all that I have
To see you again
To see you again

And I close my eyes and I see your face
If home's where my heart is then I'm out of place
Lord, won't you give me strength to make it through somehow
Won't you give me strength to make it through somehow
Won't you give me strength to make it through somehow

I've never been more homesick than now

Lamb - Baruch Hashem

Psalm 113:2-4

Hi!

I've published music from Lamb, a pioneering Messianic Jewish band at least twice before on this blog.

6-30-18 — Lamb - Psalm 23
7-31-12 — Lamb - The Sacrifice Lamb

--------------------------------

Messianic Jews believe Jesus is their Lord and Messiah.

-------------------------------- 

When I was a kid I had a copy of Lamb's album, "Favorites" which featured a selection of their best songs.

Although I was a high mountain kid, born into Anglo-American stock, there was something about Lamb's music I loved (and still do).

Baruch Hashem (Blessed is the Name) was one of the tracks on that album and I listened to it over and over without really knowing exactly what it meant — but something (or rather Some-ONE) spoke to my heart and spirit though it.

Now with the help of Internet I know precisely what they were saying in their lyric (found below).  It is a song of worship and praise to our Lord Jesus — and our Father — the Creator of the Universe!

I pray you will enjoy this track too — and let God fill your life and heart with His Love, Peace, Comfort, Healing, and Joy!

Baruch Hashem - Lyrics

The heart of the Jew is Jerusalem
The Messiah his only King
And when in the soul of a Jew He reigns
Peace to the city he brings

Baruch Hashem ha Mashiach, Yeshua *
(Blessed is the Name of the Messiah, Yeshua)

Baruch Hashem, Adonoi! **
(Blessed is the Name of the Lord)

Behold the son of Abraham
Sent by God our people to redeem
When He came forth in Bethlehem
I heard the angels sing 

Baruch Hashem ha Mashiach, Yeshua
(Blessed is the Name of the Messiah, Yeshua)

Baruch Hashem, Adonoi!
Blessed is the Name of the Lord)

Bless His name for His name is good
Yeshua ha Mashiach is the name I love
Bless His name for His name is good
Sanctified us by His blood

Now we drink His wine of joy
Filled with the Spirit of Adonoi
United in the love Messiah brings
Now we sing to Elohim (God)

Baruch Hashem ha Mashiach, Yeshua
(Blessed is the Name of the Messiah, Yeshua)

Baruch Hashem, Adonoi!
Blessed is the Name of the Lord)

------------------------------

*  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yeshua

Yeshua was a common alternative form of the name in later books of the Hebrew Bible and among Jews of the Second Temple period. The name corresponds to the Greek spelling Iesous, from which, through the Latin Iesus, comes the English spelling Jesus.

------------------------------

** https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Names_of_God_in_Judaism

The name of God most often used in the Hebrew Bible is the Tetragrammaton (YHWH יהוה‬).

It is frequently anglicized as Jehovah and Yahweh and written in most English editions of the Bible as "the Lord" owing to the Jewish tradition viewing the divine name as increasingly too sacred to be uttered.

It was thus replaced vocally in the synagogue ritual by the Hebrew word Adonai, which was translated as Kyrios (“Lord”) in the Septuagint, the Greek version of the Hebrew scriptures.

Healer by Hillsong — And Request For Prayer

Gospel Music Video Below: Healer (with lyrics) — Hillsong

The Raising of the Daughter of Jairus by Jesus — Gabriel Max — 1885

Hello Brothers and Sisters!

If you've visited this blog before you'll know that I mostly share commentary related to music I post, and relevant scripture that generally mirrors or compliments the lyrics of that day's song.


---------------------------------------------

UK Blogger Brenda — whose blog is called Light House Vision — has been faithfully commenting on posts here which has been very encouraging.

Brenda has a heart for reaching others and uses her blog to "share with those who do not know the Lord Jesus Christ as their Saviour."

After my most recent post (How Great Thou Art - Carrie Underwood and Vince Gill) — Brenda briefly detailed a health issue she is having  — and asked for prayer from me.

She described her health concern this way in her comment:  "I have been going through the worst trial that I have ever had, this time with my joints and now my spine." 

*  Please see edit below

Of course I agreed to pray for her — and have been — and also posted this in my reply to her —

Because God is present on-line and communicates to us through His word — I will offer this written prayer from me for you:

Merciful Father in Heaven, we come boldly before you with a petition to heal Brenda's joints and spine. Comfort her and erase any pain associated with this — give her mobility in her spine and joints and repair whatever is causing this issue.

Lord, You knit Brenda together in her mother's womb and know her inside and out — so we place her healing in Your mighty Hands and call upon You our Great Physician to bring Brenda through this trail, and give her complete healing — all for Your Glory!!

In the Mighty name above all names, the soon and coming King of kings and Lord of lords — Jesus the Messiah! Amen!! 

--------------------------------------------- 

I also asked Brenda if I could request prayer from those who visit here.  She agreed.

So dear Christian Brothers and Sisters — please consider agreeing in your prayers for the healing of our sister, Brenda.

Matthew 18:19

During Jesus' earthly ministry — He healed every disease, opened blind eyes, healed the lame and crippled, and even raised people from the dead — and promised that through Him we could also perform miracles in His name:

John 14:12-13

----------------------------------------------

* Edit: I neglected to add something very important to this prayer request for Brenda.

I'll copy and paste her initial reply to my comment asking her if it would be OK to publish her need for prayer — along with a comment she made on her blog when I let her now this post was "live." 

"Hi Jephyr, thank you so much for your lovely prayer. Yes, it would be very acceptable to me if you called for prayer, not only for my request but for the Holy Spirit to bring true life into the 'dry bones' of not only physical Israel but also fully into the Spiritual Israel of God - the church. Ezekiel's prophesy is still on-going and we can all be 'signs' and 'portents' as scripture states, and the Spirit will keep us all from backsliding."

"Thank you Jephyr, I am still suffering pain in my right hip and I do absolutely believe it is associated with the children being for signs and portents, and that is one of the main reasons I can not go to the worldly physicians for help. Otherwise that sign would not be there in me, but I believe that it calls me and others to pray for the spirit to come into the 'dry bones' of the church - the Israel of God.
God bless you Jephyr, and you too pray for the church."

Brothers and Sisters — Brenda has a true heart for God — and sees this trial not simply as something that she is experiencing — but also that God is speaking to her (and us) through it:  The pain in her joints also represents the "dry bones" of God's people and our Lord's Church.

So as we all pray for Brenda's healing —  let's also pray for the Lord's Holy Spirit to Flood over each of His children — His Church and Israel — and refresh us with His Strength, Power, and Love!!

Thank you in advance for your prayers — and may God Bless you as you serve Him with your life!

Isaiah 53:5
