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)

"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: ...

"He's My Rock" by Jamar Esaw & Triad 4 Christ: Finding Shelter in the Storm

(by Jasper Tan) “He’s My Rock” by Jamar Esaw & Triad4Christ featuring Koriann Lewis-Freeman is a powerful contemporary Gospel track that delivers a blend of traditional worship and modern soul. It reminds me of some of the songs by the band DC Talk, which was the definitive sound of modern Christian Contemporary Music when it exploded in the music scene back in the 90’s. This contemporary Gospel track brings forth an energetic sound that updates the way we sing our praise and worship sessions in our Churches. The song brings in a raw modern energy that breaks tradition while also encouraging worship sessions to be more in tune with the times, which brings a lot of youthful energy. The song is powered by Jamar Esaw’s smooth, commanding vocals and Koriann Lewis-Freeman’s additional vocal range. Bringing in an electric chemistry rooted in the authenticity of emotions as they sang the lyrics of the song. This is clearly felt during the song’s build-up to its climactic moments. With a r...

"Boxes" by John Long: Breaking Free from Religious Boxes

(by Jasper Tan) John Long’s “Boxes,” written with Dustin Smith, is both a reflection and criticism of how we oftentimes allow ourselves to be limited (“boxed”) with our faith. Using the “box” as the core metaphor of the song, it represents our self-imposed (or community-imposed) limitations with religious traditions that prevents genuine a genuine relationship with God. John emphasizes that these limitations often run into conflict with the original intentions of God, to have a free flowing holy communion with God. The song is characterized by our sense of longing and our desire to re-approach our Faith with clean hands and a pure heart. From the opening lines itself, we are challenged to evaluate the current status of our faith and come to realize that it may never really what we intend it to be. Our intention from the start was born from a desire to start a deep and Holy Communion with God, and as the bridge and chorus approaches, the song has a more personal and prayerful tone. We a...
