Jacquelyn Owens - Kingdom (CCM)


In a world that is frequently filled with chaos and confusion, it is easy to lose sight of what truly matters. But, in the midst of it all, Jacquelyn's song 'Kingdom' reminds us of what is truly important. Jacquelyn shares that 'Kingdom' is based on scripture found in Matthew 6:9-13 and Luke 11:2-4, better known as the Lord's Prayer. The lyrics express a deep desire for His will to be done, as well as our willingness to follow Him wherever He leads us.

One of the song's lines that stick in my mind is 'Let my desires be Your desires, I wanna love just like You do.' A line in the lyrics that makes me ask myself if I can truly love as He does. I know that I'm not perfect, but I can still aim to let go of my own desires and seek what it is that God wants me to do and discover what truly matters in today's world.

Jacquelyn Owens - Kingdom'Kingdom' is a very nice song, well crafted, and an excellent addition to the range of powerful songs that inspire us to keep our focus fixed on those things that truly matter in our lives and for the people around us.

The repeated refrain 'Kingdom come, Thy will be done, right here on earth as it is in heaven' (from 'The Lord's Prayer') reminds me that God's Kingdom is not just something that will happen in the future, but it is already something we can experience right here and now if and when we align our hearts and wills with His.

There is so much noise and distractions around us, and I see 'Kingdom' as a powerful encouragement to focus on what truly matters.

"Come Alive" by Joel Lane: Finding Life Where Emptiness Used to Live

What if nothing you chase can truly fill the emptiness?  Emptiness has a way of following you around, no matter how fast you run. You chase a feeling (or things you believe will get you higher up “the ladder”), land on it for a moment, and then watch it slip through your fingers again. Joel Lane captures that feeling of restlessness in the opening lines of his song “Come Alive”: “Emptiness, chasing a feeling, trying to fill the void inside.” Sound familiar? Most of us have spent years searching for a purpose that felt just out of our reach.  Joel sings about how something happened that put everything in a different perspective. “You opened my eyes, now I see the light, I’m never going back.” That’s not a small statement. That’s a complete change of direction, a different way of living, a change the kind that can only happen when God steps into the picture.  The apostle Paul writes about this change of direction in Ephesians: “But God, being rich in mercy, because of the...

"Paper Lantern Heart" by MK Green: When God Lights a Fire You Can't Contain

What happens when God lights a fire in you?  Some fires refuse to stay hidden. MK Green wrote “Paper Lantern Heart” around that exact truth, inspired by Jeremiah 20:9, where the prophet admits that he tried to stop preaching but simply couldn’t. The Word burned inside him “like a fire shut up in my bones.” Green’s lyrics echo that same struggle: “Behind the bones inside my chest there burns a paper heart.” Cold turns to burning. Silence turns to song. “I was cold as stone until You lit a spark,” the chorus declares, and something about that image sticks with you long after the music fades.  Here’s the question worth pondering: What do you do when God ignites something in you that won’t stay quiet?  Jeremiah tried holding it in, and that exhausted him. “There is in my heart as it were a burning fire shut up in my bones, and I am weary with holding it in, and I cannot” (Jeremiah 20:9). That weariness sounds familiar, doesn’t it? Maybe you’ve felt the nudge to speak up, ...

"Great Is Thy Faithfulness" by Gethsemane Instrumental: Finding Steady Ground in the Storm

God’s mercies are new every morning — do you notice? “Great Is Thy Faithfulness” by Gethsemane Instrumental is one of the tracks in John Long’s upcoming instrumental project. Gethsemane Instrumental is a space for prayer, a quiet room where listeners can sit with Jesus without distraction. Hardships visited John more than once. He also went through Ministry seasons that tested him in ways that could have hollowed him out. But something kept pulling John back to the same conviction: “He is faithful.” Not faithful when convenient. Not faithful in the easy seasons only. Faithful “through every storm,” standing “unmoved and unwavering” while everything around him shifted. “Great Is Thy Faithfulness” is the first single off John’s upcoming Hymns Devotional Vol. 2 project. This song has been a staple song for him throughout his entire walk with Jesus.  That kind of steadiness isn’t new. Thomas Chisholm penned the original song in 1923, sitting in Baldwin City, Kansas, worn down by frai...
