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.

Red Letter Society - Image (Our Praise) (CCM)

"Image," by Rede Letter Society carries a profound message that celebrates the true meaning of Christmas and the revelation of God's character through Jesus. I encourage you to take a moment and listen to this beautiful song.  "Image" was originally intended to be a non-typical Christmas song, devoid of the traditional elements associated with the holiday season. Instead, it focuses on the significance of Jesus as the image of the invisible God. When we look at Jesus, we catch a glimpse of God's character and His desires for us. This realization brings reassurance and dispels any notion of God being distant or unknowable. The lyrics beautifully depict the revelation of God through Jesus, highlighting His majesty and reign. Red Letter Society poetically expresses the profound truth that Jesus, the Savior planned before time, is the Messiah present before our very eyes. It's a reminder of the eternal nature of God, who reveals Himself to us so that we may ...

"GREATER THAN THE GRAVE 2026 - Remaster" by Josh Clay: Overcoming Walls and Giants

Have you ever felt like your heart’s gone cold, walls built high like Jericho’s? That’s where Josh Clay’s journey began with his song “Greater Than The Grave”, a song first released in 2022. It was the first song he ever released as an artist, and it’s also the first song that made him say … “yeah, this is my sound!” Years have passed since this song was born, and Josh Clay still sings it with conviction, giving him a good reason to release a remastered version.  Josh shares that this song came after watching a Beatles documentary, where they were explaining that they had 14 days to write 14 songs. He decided right there and then to adopt the same challenge. On the second day of this challenge, while practicing for church, Josh just started singing: “no mountain that may come my way,” and then mumbled something about a grave. In the next 30 minutes, he had the basis for “Greater than the grave”. Josh recalls that this is the song that gave him wings to fly, and without it, t...

"Hosanna (Palm Sunday) [Live]" by Century Worship: A Palm Sunday Call to Rejoice the King

Century Worship's "Hosanna (Palm Sunday) [Live]" is a joyful gathering cry: "Can you hear it in the distance? The King is coming." The song takes us back to the Palm Sunday moment when Jesus entered Jerusalem, humble and righteous. The lyrics invite us to gather because something is happening. The King is approaching - not with spectacle, but with humility, faithfulness, and saving grace.  Our response is that of expectation, not spectatorship. This is worship that moves us and lifts our eyes. Instead of holding back, we're encouraged "raise up your voices" and prepare the way by laying down symbols of surrender. "Oh lay down your branches, make way for the Savior."   So, why does this song matter today? Because it reminds us that worship is both a response and a declaration. Rejoice, make room, and speak it out! We're reminded of His goodness "to save us, to change us, to bring us home again," and it anchors our hope: ...
