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!

Secrets Artists Should Learn About The Spotify Algorithm

Spotify's competitive edge is the amount of data it holds on listeners and the way it uses that data to increase engagement. ... Using the same underlying data and technology can provide unique insights to record labels and artists about who's listening to what and help them reach more listeners. The Spotify algorithm sets itself apart from other digital music streaming services. The algorithm is an AI system known as BaRT (an abbreviation of Ba ndits for R ecommendations as T reatments). Basically, BaRT’s job is to keep listeners listening. It does this by playing and suggesting songs it knows the user is familiar with, while dropping in some fresh tracks it thinks they might like, but most importantly, haven’t heard before. This makes sure the listener is engaged, but things never get boring. BaRT decides what to suggest to listeners by combining two concepts – Explore and Exploit. This combination is the key to the platform’s recommendation system. Exploit uses the listene...

"Coming Out Of Babylon" by Robert Peterson and The Crusade: Finding Purpose and Joy in Christ

Robert Peterson had barely dusted off his drum kit when the Lord handed him a new setlist. Robert shares: "this current round of songs being created were different - they were all his - well sort of all his." He had decided it was time to offer up his talents to the Lord. Robert writes: "I was mortified at the thought of actually giving my life to Him. I didn't want to give up who I thought I was."   "Coming Out of Babylon" is the first song coming out of this change (one that was on the shelve a while pending creation of a intro). The result is a five-minute testimony that turns a trembling surrender into a victory march. As you listen, you can feel how this slow ache of "doing what I wanted to… without a fear" transitions into the realization that "I needed You - all the way."   What I enjoy about the song is that it helps to see "leaving" as the first step that is needed to following His calling for us. The chorus emph...
