Moving Mountain Music - Fortunes of Jacob (Psalm 85) (CCM)


'Fortunes of Jacob (Psalm 85)' by Moving Mountain Music is a powerful reminder of God's faithfulness and the importance of waiting on the Lord. The man behind the music, Dale R. Rugge, recently underwent vocal cord surgery, and his recovery has been nothing short of miraculous. Despite his challenges, Dale has managed to capture the central themes of Psalm 85 in modern lyrical form.

Moving Mountain Music - Fortunes of Jacob (Psalm 85)The song emphasizes the importance of seeking God's restoration while acknowledging that it is ultimately up to Him to bring about this restoration in His own time and manner. The psalmist expresses an urgency in seeking God's mercy, and the song perfectly captures this urgency.

The sound of Dale's voice in the song (post-surgery) is a powerful testament to God's faithfulness and the power of prayer, a reminder that our God is a living God who unceasingly does His work in our lives. Dale sings about the Sons of Korah, who wrote Psalm 85 as a prayer to God for mercy on the people and nation of Israel as they prepared to return from Babylonian captivity. The Sons of Korah were spared God's wrath for opposing the Lord, and their prayer for mercy reminds us of our own need for God's grace and forgiveness.

Moving Mountain Music's 'Fortunes of Jacob (Psalm 85)' is a must-listen if you're looking for a powerful worship song that captures the heart of Psalm 85. It's a lovely reminder of God's faithfulness and the necessity of waiting on Him, on His timing. Give it a listen and be blessed by its message.

"Holy Forever" by Stephanie Staples: When Music Becomes an Offering

(by Jasper Tan) Stephanie Staples has just recently released her own rendition of Chris Tomlin’s recent critically acclaimed worship song “Holy Forever”. For this version, Stephanie transforms this song into a soulful and reverent version of this classic hit. While Tomlin’s version is more grandiose and soaring, Stephanie’s version feels more grounded and meditative. Leaning on her more emotive expression of the song, this version offers an alternative listen to a song that is well loved by this generation of Christian worshippers. Just like Tomlin’s original version, "Holy Forever" themes gives focus on eternal worship and the unchanging dominion of Jesus Christ over us. The song gives reverence to the value and the importance of having Jesus in our life. Our continued reverence and submission to him is crucial in our quest to know him more and understand how his presence in our life transforms us to become better Christians. Foremost to this is accepting the fact that Jesus...

"I'm Yours (Radio Edit)" by Avery Stafford: Soaring Faith Like an Eagle

What does it mean to truly surrender? Avery Stafford answers that question with conviction in "I'm Yours (Radio Edit)", a song that's finally getting its own moment in the spotlight. "I'm Yours" was originally released as part of the End of Five album back in 2012. This fan-favorite track blends Avery's characteristic gospel soul vibe with contemporary inspiration in a manner that feels both timeless and personal. It's the kind of song that doesn't just sound good, it continues to touch hearts and encourage our surrender to Him, our Savior. The key message in this song is a simple message of complete devotion to God. From the opening lines, Avery sets the tone: "I give You praise in unexpected ways, from my heart and my soul." This isn't polished religion. It's raw, everyday faith. The kind that shows up at the break of dawn and in the quiet moments in between. "I'm Yours" is a song about letting go of fear an...

"No One Like Jesus" by Joseph Jordan: The Friend Who Never Fails to Show Up

There's a feeling that most of us know too well — reaching out and finding that no one is there. Joseph Jordan captures that pain in "No One Like Jesus," and reminds us what Jesus truly gave us. The song opens with vulnerability, where Jordan describes a feeling of exhaustion caused by loneliness, the frustration that pushes people away, and the painful silence that follows when friends don't show up. Joseph is singing what many of us feel, but rarely say out loud. "I got lonely and called on a friend, and no one showed up just like always." That line hurts and cuts deeply, because most of us have been there. "No One Like Jesus" is a song about a turning point that we all may experience (yes, you too!). After years of running "to never get nowhere" and being "blinded by lies," Jordan finally sees what was there all along. "Oh, How could I not see // That you were right in front of me." Jesus, who is always present...
