Amanda Blankenship - Remnant (CCM)

Amanda Blankenship - Remnant
Amanda Blankenship has released a Christian Contemporary Music (CCM) track called Remnant.

The message is simple and clear: "God's remnant is rising!" They are gathering for kingdom purposes; calling out for Fresh Wind and Fresh Fire to Consume us! Lord, “make your messengers into winds of the Spirit, and all your ministers become flames of fire!” - Psalm 104:4

During a song review, we listen (often with our eyes closed) and feel what the song is doing for us. What emotion does the song evoke in us? Music and lyrics: How do they complement one another? This song is the perfect song to start your weekend with praise and joy!

Amanda created a song that evokes an urgency, an army on the move, a call and response... You can almost feel the Spirit of the Lord waking us up and consuming us. Music and lyrics work perfectly together. There's something magical about the drums, as if praise is roaring like thunder. Amanda's voice sounding above the drums to call people and let them know that God's remnant is on the rise! To experience that part of this song even better, I actually turned the volume up! 😀

I trust that you will enjoy the song as much as we did!


Lyrics: 

VERSE 1
You’re calling Your people
From every corner
For such a time as this
We were made for this

VERSE 2
An army is rising
From every nation
In spirit and in truth
Your people on the move

CHORUS
Dry bones, come forth, hear the word of the Lord
Step out, into freedom, receive life once more
(Oh) Spirit come down
The remnant is on the rise
Dead dreams, awake, let hope be restored
Your breakthrough, is coming, like never before
Revival fall now
The remnant is on the rise

VERSE 3
Giants are falling
and praise roars like thunder
Love is breaking through
He’s making all things new

Fresh wind, fresh fire, Consume us, Lord
Fresh wind, fresh fire, Consume us, Lord
Fresh wind, fresh fire, Consume us Lord
Oh take us higher than we’ve been before

***Bridge: Fresh wind, fresh fire, Consume us, Lord
Fresh wind, fresh fire, Consume us, Lord
Fresh wind, fresh fire, Consume us Lord
Oh take us higher than we’ve been before

'Lonely Dirt Road' by Dax: A Journey to Solitude and God

Dax's 'Lonely Dirt Road' is a conversation that Dax has with himself and God. Dax shares his journey of turning mental health walks into healing solitary drives. As you listen, you can almost feel the cruise, where it's just you, your thoughts, and God.  The chorus is so relatable: 'When I need space, that's where I go, a place to escape that nobody knows.' What do you do when life's pressures stack high? Do you also have a space where you can let go? That lonely dirt road that Dax sings about symbolizes solitude, but it is also an incredible opportunity for connecting with God.  Dax's honesty is raw and relatable. 'I didn't want my family to see me cry… dealing with the pressure of trying to provide.' There are times when we all put on a smile to hide how challenging situations may be. Like his father, Dax says that he finds peace on this lonely road, where challenges become opportunities to grow. This shows the core of our faith: that...

"Compass (Phileo)" by Chelsea Chaisson: Navigating Life with Faith and Friends

"Compass (Phileo)" by Chelsea Chaisson explores one of the Greek words for love. This song focuses on "phileo" (friendship) and its vital role in life's storms. "Phileo" translates to love that is characterized by affection, fondness, and friendship. It's a warm, tender, and affectionate bond, often seen between friends, siblings, or within a community. It's more about the natural affection we have for those who are close to us.  Chelsea wrote this song when she returned home after living in Cambodia for two years. Faith brought her to Cambodia, sustained her there, and guided her back, but the journey left her feeling like "a little boat" lost in raging seas. At times we may feel like, "I'm drowning, drowning treading water in the wind // I'm drowning, drowning I could use a friend." It's a cry for connection, a reminder that we all need someone to anchor us when fear starts to take over. The fears and lies tha...
