'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)

"King, Lamb, Lion" by Ben Jero & Graham Guy: When the World Runs Dry

What happens when the world just isn’t enough?  In early 2025, Graham Guy was reading Revelation chapter 4. The picture of heaven gathered around the throne — declaring God holy and worthy of praise — planted the seed for this song. Three words surfaced from that moment: “King, Lamb, Lion.” Graham sent them to Ben Jero, and across a string of FaceTime calls between South Carolina and California, the song “King, Lamb, Lion” took shape.  The opening verse doesn’t pretend. “I’ve tried this world, but it won’t fill me,” the lyric admits, before landing at surrender: “My life laid down, at your feet.” That’s honest territory. Most of us have chased something we thought would satisfy, only to find ourselves empty-handed. The song changes our focus to lasting results. “The old is gone, the new has come,” it declares, repeating a promise found in 2 Corinthians 5:17: “If anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. The old has passed away; behold, the new has come.” Notice what that ...

"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, ...

"Stand By Me" by Daniel Aranda: Finding Steadiness in Life's Storms

Who’s standing with you in the storm? “Stand By Me” by Daniel Aranda is an amazing rendition of a hymn written by Charles Albert Tindley in 1905. Tindley was the son of a former slave, a man who knew what it meant to need help that wasn’t guaranteed. He didn’t write from comfort. He wrote from the middle of a fight, and that’s exactly why the song is still so relevant and cherished by many today. Daniel Aranda’s recording brings gospel legends Terry Blackwood and Charlie McCoy into that same lineage, carrying Tindley’s plea forward into a new generation.  The lyrics move through life’s troubles, one verse at a time. “When the storms of life are raging, stand by me”  — that’s not poetic exaggeration. Tindley’s first verse is about a ship tossed on open water, powerless against the waves. Then verses about failing strength, friends who misunderstand your best efforts, persecution, and the song ends with a verse about old age creeping toward “chilly Jordan.” Each of the verses names ...
