'Just One Touch' by Ron Poindexter: The Power of His Presence

Ron Poindexter - Just One Touch

Life brings suffering, and sometimes that seems too deep to bear alone. In these moments of deepest suffering, when all feels lost, we may ask ourselves how healing is possible. Yet there is One who is not bound by our earthly limitations – Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior.

The song “Just One Touch” reminds us that no matter the pain, or how deep the hole we find ourselves in, Jesus meets us where we are. All we need is one touch from Him to find healing, rekindle hope, and change lives. The woman who fought through crowds just to touch Jesus’ robe knew this. With just one touch, her bleeding stopped, and she was made whole.

This song encourages us to first go to Jesus whenever we are facing challenges, just like this woman did. When doctors give up and families walk away, Jesus stays beside you. He is the rock on which we stand, the redeemer of our souls, the healer of our lives, and the shelter in every storm. His touch brings healing and power like nothing else.

Even when storms surround us and our sorrows feel as if they are too much to bear, we also stand on God’s unchanging promises. Jesus is the same yesterday, today, and forever. When we cry out to Him in humble prayer, seeking His healing touch, He meets us right where we are. His divine power transcends all human limits, giving us victory, restoring us, and making us strong.

Though suffering is part of this life, we have a Savior who bore our suffering to bring us salvation. Until that day, when there will no longer be any suffering, we look for His touch, knowing that there is always hope with Him. His touch brings salvation, and with that touch we are never the same.

Lord, we pray… all we need is just one touch from You. Nothing else will do. You alone can heal, restore, and redeem. Lord, hear our prayer - touch us now, and let us never be the same.

(Related scripture: Mark 5:25-34; Matthew 8:2-3; Psalm 107:19-20)

"Guide Me (O, Thou Great Jehovah) / Oceans (Where Feet May Fail)" by Ezra Worship Initiative – Ancient Wisdom, Fresh Waves

I'm sitting in traffic, Spotify on shuffle, listening to my collection of new releases. That's when the song "Guide Me (O, Thou Great Jehovah) / Oceans (Where Feet May Fail)" by Ezra Worship Initiative starts to play. The song starts with a revamp of a 280-year-old hymn "Guide Me O Thou Great Jehovah", and then beautifully transitions to the chorus of Hillsong's "Oceans (Where Feet May Fail)". This medley made my heart do a little cartwheel!  The hymn "Guide Me, O Thou Great Jehovah" (originally "Arglwydd, arwain trwy'r anialwch" in Welsh) by William Williams (a Welsh Methodist preacher) was inspired by the biblical story of the Israelites' exodus from Egypt. Williams wrote this in 1745 as a plea to God for guidance while traveling through life's wilderness. A 280-year-old plea that is still very relevant for us today.  "I am weak, but Thou art mighty // hold me with thy powerful hand," a thought that ...

'Lonely Dirt Road' by Dax: A Journey to Solitude and God

Dax's 'Lonely Dirt Road' is a conversation that Dax has with himself and God. Dax shares his journey of turning mental health walks into healing solitary drives. As you listen, you can almost feel the cruise, where it's just you, your thoughts, and God.  The chorus is so relatable: 'When I need space, that's where I go, a place to escape that nobody knows.' What do you do when life's pressures stack high? Do you also have a space where you can let go? That lonely dirt road that Dax sings about symbolizes solitude, but it is also an incredible opportunity for connecting with God.  Dax's honesty is raw and relatable. 'I didn't want my family to see me cry… dealing with the pressure of trying to provide.' There are times when we all put on a smile to hide how challenging situations may be. Like his father, Dax says that he finds peace on this lonely road, where challenges become opportunities to grow. This shows the core of our faith: that...

"Heartbeat" by Laura Leighe - Dancing in Worship

Here's a song that's more or less been stuck in my head since I heard it. It's called 'Heartbeat' by Laura Leighe and is what Laura calls a "reggaeton-influenced Christian pop duet" that's all about surrendering to God's rhythm and dancing in worship, no matter what life throws your way.  The lyrics remind me of two scriptures: "Praise him with timbrel and dancing, praise him with the strings and pipe."  - Psalm 150:4 (NIV) and "Wearing a linen ephod, David was dancing before the Lord with all his might."  - 2 Samuel 6:14 (NIV). Maybe I'm a bit prejudiced because the song reminds us of our own thoughts when we founded "Christian Dance" years ago and picked a name. Focusing on music that allows us to feel joy and causes us (our hearts) to dance for God, a pure form of worship that we know is pleasing to God. The lyrics are about surrendering our control and trusting in God's plan. Laura sings, "I bet you f...
