The Jesus Followers | Pray for the Bad, Pray for the Good (CEDM)


'The Jesus Followers' are a missionary family based in New Zealand. Titus, a member of the family, made a personal commitment to producing FREE Christian music that would encourage the next generation, yet remain faithful to the Bible. 

Let me share with you this interesting fact... Titus is not a professional music producer, but rather he calls himself "just a music lover who collaborates with talented people to create songs aimed at teaching the Bible and glorifying God". These are his first two works! 

It is inspiring to see how God is able to use our talents and bless the work of willing hands for His glory.

'Pray for the Bad, Pray for the Good' is a beautifully made track based on Matthew 5:43-47. "You have heard that it was said, ‘Love your neighbor and hate your enemy.’ But I tell you, love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you, that you may be children of your Father in heaven. He causes his sun to rise on the evil and the good, and sends rain on the righteous and the unrighteous. If you love those who love you, what reward will you get? Are not even the tax collectors doing that? And if you greet only your own people, what are you doing more than others? Do not even pagans do that?"



Lyrics:

You have heard that it was said
You shall love your neighbor and your friends
And hate your enemy
But I tell you it’s not true
For those who curse you
You shall pray
Pray for the bad
Pray for the good
The power is His
It’s all we should
Do while we’re here
Keep your brothers near!
Let His will be done
Let His will be done
Let Your kingdom come
Let’s all engage our hearts! 
Our Father in Heaven, makes the sun rise 
On the good and the evil
He sends rain, on everyone, just and unjust
Pray for the bad
Pray for the good
The power is His
It’s all we should
Do while we’re here
Keep your brothers near!
Let His will be done
Let His will be done
Let Your kingdom come
Let’s all engage our hearts!
Therefore perfect you shall be,
As your Father in Heaven, is
Therefore perfect you shall be,
As your Father in Heaven, is
Let His will be done
Let His will be done
Let Your kingdom come
Let’s all engage our hearts!
Let’s all engage our hearts!

Bryan & Katie Torwalt - Miracle In The Works (CCM)

Bryan & Katie Torwalt has released a Christian Contemporary Music (CCM) track called Miracle In The Works. LYRICS: Some may say it’s hopeless They must have never met my God  Some may say it’s over But it was finished on the cross Some may say it’s broken But the Healer’s in the room  Some may say it’s hopeless But I know    God’s about to move...   There’s a miracle in the works I can feel it There’s revival in the church I believe it   Some may see an ocean But He’s made a highway through Some may see a mountain  But we’ve seen a mountain move Some may see a graveyard But we’ve seen His empty tomb Some may see a battle But I know   Reignite us, reawaken Breath of God, come breathe again Like the dry bones started shaking All that died will live again  Oh the miracle You’re making The beginning not the end Eternity is waiting  To see Your church alive again   You are my miracle Jesus You are my miracle   #BryanandKatieTorw...

"Empty Hand" by Marcus & Jalyn McGill: Embracing God’s Presence as the Ultimate Gift

The idea behind Marcus & Jalyn McGill's new song, "Empty Hand," was triggered by a deeply personal season of infertility. One of their writers, Jennifer, had a vision where God was extending His hand to her, not holding the longed-for child, but an empty hand offering something much greater… His presence in the waiting. This vision became the center of this song and is an important message for anyone who is holding onto a wish/longing for a miracle that hasn't come to pass.  In this song we hear the message that comes along with His extended hand. "I've been watching as you've been waiting / As you focus on your lack," reminding us that it's so easy to get trapped in our pain when prayers don't seem to be answered. It's a pain that distracts and causes us to forget that He's "… more than enough." God already has a miracle for you, "I'm holding out My hand to you // Don't think because it's empty // I h...
