Blessed by Yair Levi: A Musical Echo of God's Unchanging Promises


Yair Levi released the song as part of ‘The Church Will Sing’ project called “Blessed,” a song about God’s promises. God’s words are perfect, His heart unchanging, and His promises forever standing. “Blessed” encourages us to be channels of blessing. Through acts of kindness and support toward "Israel," blessings flow back to us and outward to the whole world.

Yair levi - BlessedThe usage of “Israel” is where the present content filters on various platforms get in the way of God’s word. When lyrics are citing parts of the Bible that mention Israel, these content filters demonstrate the ignorance (or political pressures) of the persons who created them, blocking and even banning the user who put these lyrics online. That is what Yair Levi is facing at the moment. Living in Israel, putting up these lyrics, and the inability of a content filter to see the difference between a quote from many years ago that doesn’t have anything to do with present day politics or even distinguish the difference between the physical Israel and the spiritual Israel.

It is so sad what is happening in the world today, and that fear and politics are driving people to make poor choices, even to the point where they are stopping others from spreading God’s truths. So, I leave you with the song and the lyrics to decide for yourself if this song is an invitation to be part of something bigger than ourselves — God’s unending story of love and redemption.

(Related scripture: Genesis 12:3; Psalm 122:6; Numbers 23:19)

"Sunlight (Storge)" by Chelsea Chaisson: Reminisce the Simpler Times

(by Jasper Tan) Feel good, light-hearted, easy listening track. That's how I find Chelsea Chaisson's new single called "Sunlight (Storge)." I was kind of curious what the word "Storge" means, so I had to look it up. According to Wikipedia, "Storge is a Greek word that refers to natural, familial affection or love, particularly the bond between parents and children, as well as among family members and close friends. It is characterized by familiarity, dependence, and loyalty, often rooted in kinship bonds and shared experiences." Sounds very familiar? Of course, it should be, because as per the description, it actually describes what Christian love is. Or should I say how God loves us as His children? Chelsea was inspired to write this song by reminiscing about her childhood, marked by simpler times spent with her cousins and their grandma.  Countless times, we always heard the saying that we all should have faith like a child. The reason for that i...

"Temptation" by Dax: Fighting Spiritual Warfare Through Faith and Prayer

Have you ever felt like the battle against temptation is relentless? In his powerful track "Temptation," Dax reminds us that every moment of resistance is a victory. He doesn't shy away from the reality that "temptations outside, knocking at my door." Instead of hiding the struggle, he exposes it. He admits that while he "won the battle last night," the war continues. In other words, spiritual discipline is a daily choice. Dax explains that temptation finds safety in an "idle mind" and when we lack purpose. But most of all, he offers a strategy for triumph: "starve my flesh, then feed my spirit with faith." So, why trade your peace of mind for fleeting pleasure? The lyrics trace our struggles back to the garden and "Adam and Eve," and also point us toward redemption.  "Down by the Riverbend // in the garden, where the snake tempted Adam and Eve, // they ate the fruit and from those seeds // grew the roots of this ...

"The Perfect Love of Christ" by John Long: Mercy That Draws Us Near

(By Jasper Tan) It's the "love month" already, and there's no other way to celebrate it best but to remember the greatest lover of all, Jesus Christ. In John Long's CCM Folk song "The Perfect Love of Christ", John emotionally sings about how overwhelming it is to be loved by Jesus. All that He did for us is something that we cannot easily replicate, yet we usually take it for granted in favor of other earthly pleasures. We always want to say that we love someone, yet we can't fully back it up with a love that is pure. Because often than not, there's still a piece of our selfishness residing in our hearts. But Jesus does not have that. His love is selfless and always puts others' welfare before Himself. For how can He still love the sinners that wronged Him? That mocked Him and took away His life? As John emotionally sings these lines, "Oh my God, how could it be? That You would love me, That You would hold, That You would take the ones t...
