Nick Rector's 'How Can It Be': An Anthem of the Heavenly Promise


'How Can It Be,' by Nick Rector, is a song with a story that was carefully shaped over the years. A song influenced by other songs about God's throne and His saving grace. You feel the reverence behind every word. 

Nick Rector - How Can It BeNick does a great job of describing the mystery of God moving the planets and taking on a human form, something that is both overwhelming and extremely intimate. The words make you thankful for the God who came to earth to become man and died for our salvation. 

As I listen to the song, my mind ponders on His love-that He was painfully nailed to a cross, and paved the way for us to be eternally free. It becomes a prayer, a declaration, and a benediction that shapes our lives as Christians. 

What a beautiful reminder that Jesus is worthy of our lives and our love. He is enough! We can rest in the fact that He is more than enough, and we can find comfort through His sacrifice. So go ahead, listen to the song and join in the endless anthem of His worth.

(Related scripture: Colossians 1:16-17; 1 Peter 1:18-19; Revelation 5:12)

"Just Like You" by Senora Boyd: Chasing Christ Above All Else

What does it really mean to be transformed? Senora Boyd answers that question boldly in her Christian Rock/Pop anthem, "Just Like You" — and the answer might surprise you.  Less than a year before meeting her now-husband, "notlouwee!", and connecting with Billboard-charting producer "I Project", Boyd's life was looking completely different compared to where she is today. Her desires shifted, her priorities became centered on God, and the way she created music changed, together with her faith. We're talking about a full reset! What started out as a new spiritual journey quickly grew into a creative movement. Together with notlouwee! and I Project, she recorded nine songs within seven months. "Just Like You" is Boyd's fourth release, and it may be her most personal release yet.  The song is a raw, faith-filled confession. Lines like "Strip away my sin, I feel like a criminal" and "I was lost, running from the truth"...

"Soon and Very Soon" by Robby Robinson: Why This Classic Still Hits Like the First Time

What if one song could carry the weight of every hardship you've ever faced, and still leave you smiling? That's exactly what Andraé Crouch accomplished in 1978 when he wrote "Soon and Very Soon," and this new recording by Robby Robinson, Tony Galla, and Ray Reynolds makes sure you feel every bit of it.  The song is based on Revelation 21:3–4, reminding us of what's coming: no more crying, no more dying, just the glorious moment we finally see the King. Simple words, but it carries a profound promise.  Crouch was honest about the journey. There are "rivers we must cross" and "mountains we must climb." He emphasizes the truth that faith doesn't erase our struggles — it sustains us through them. God, as the lyrics remind us, will "supply all the strength that we need."   Featuring powerhouse vocalists Tony Galla and Ray Reynolds, Robinson blends this classic gospel energy with a rich, Hammond-organ-driven groove. Rather than a slow...

"Going Outta My Mind" by Fisher of Men: He Challenges You to Stop Living for Yourself

(by Jasper Tan) "Going Outta My Mind" by Fisher of Men is a modern indie pop CCM song that focuses on the suffocating nature of being self-centered, rather than being freed by the truth of God's love. With the lines "Yeah I've been livin' in my head too long, spinnin' every little worry like a broken song," it quickly establishes our tendency to dwell on our problems. And once we get in too deep with it, we more often than not get drowned by the darkness it brings. These intrusive thoughts are not healthy for us. And the only way to break free from these thoughts is to acknowledge and receive God's love, and place your problems in His care.  A simple "tap" by Jesus is all that it takes to be set free from this cycle of darkness. But the question is, are we ready to acknowledge it and let go? Jesus is always there ready to offer His help. He's always there ready to offer His friendship. Are we ready to receive it? Are we ready for H...
