Alexander Reign's "Listen": A Testimony to Faith


Listen to Alexander Reign's song 'Listen,' immediately changes your mindset, helping you to focus on feeling the presence of the Holy Spirit. The song started as a melody that Alexander played during worship. A melody that evolved into a powerful collaboration with his brother in Christ, Brett Raio. Together, they created a song about trusting God and tuning out worldly noises.

Alexander Reign - ListenThe lyrics are a conversation with God. 'Said everything I am, the man I am, it is because it's from you God' captures the essence of surrendering to His plan, and forfeiting our own. It's about recognizing that our identity and purpose come from God's mercy and guidance, and not something we try to create on our own.

Possibly one of the biggest challenges we face is found in the song that says, 'Call me and send me and leave me I'll go, following You on this narrow road.' We need constant reminders to stay on God's path, even when it's difficult. The song encourages us to trust God's way, to follow His call, wherever it may lead us, and to cleanse our heart. The promise... to find joy we never thought was possible.

'Brett Raio’s voice complements this message beautifully,' says Reign. 'We only want to listen to You,' he sings, emphasizing the importance of just focusing on God's words.

Listening to 'Listen' is a call to deepen our faith. It's one of those songs that you feel in your heart, and leads you to a place where we can alignment with God and find peace.

May this song guide your day today (and further). May its message improve your walk with God, and remind you to listen to His voice above everything else.

(Related scripture: Isaiah 30:21; Proverbs 3:5-6; John 10:27)

"Faith Like Daniel" by Marlee Smith: Praising God When the World Says No

Who do you trust when everyone disagrees? What do you do when the world says that your God doesn’t matter? Marlee Smith’s energetic pop-rock song, “Faith Like Daniel,” comes with an all-teenage female band behind her, and her response to what the world says is anything but timid. When the world feels overturned, she’ll keep “praising my Father,” even when the world says she shouldn’t. Remember what we read in the Bible about Daniel? Daniel knew that pressure. A royal decree banned prayer to anyone but the king for a period of thirty days. Daniel heard the news, went home, opened his windows, and prayed as he always had. No speeches. No protest. Just steady faith, three times a day. Then came the lions, and what happened that night in the den became a testimony. Scripture says, “No kind of harm was found on him, because he had trusted in his God” (Daniel 6:23). Daniel never trusted that his circumstances would be easy. He trusted the One who stood over them. Marlee’s message carries t...

"Holy Vessel" by Paul Scala: Your Body Is a Temple Worth Guarding

Your body is holy. Live like it. Paul Scala felt the Lord press on his heart to write about a struggle that touches almost everyone, but only a few people actually name it out loud. So he wrote “Holy Vessel” in the voice of God Himself. Not as a lecture. There’s no finger-pointing. Just a Father who is speaking to His children. Listen to how the song opens: “Son, please know that, you were bought with a great price.” Then the lyrics turn to the daughters: “I see you, not in shame but as My bride.” Shame has no seat at this table. Why does that matter? Lust leads to sin, and “sin ain’t worth your soul” . This lust leads to shame, and shame keeps people stuck. Condemnation sends us hiding, while love sends us running. This song reminds us of God’s unwavering love and His desire to restore, redeem, and make us new… especially when we have stumbled or fallen. Paul builds the song on a question: “How’s a holy vessel supposed to live, like it ain’t holy at all?” The song echoes the messag...

"You Know That I Love You" by David Bollmann: Love That Answers Failure with Mercy

Jesus meets your failure with mercy, not rejection. Peter once promised that he’d never leave. And before a rooster crowed, he’d denied Jesus three times. Have you ever failed at the very thing you swore you’d never fail at? David Bollmann’s third single, “You Know That I Love You”, begins with a promise much like Peter’s: “Others may deny You, I won’t.” The song draws on John 21, where the risen Jesus meets Peter on a beach. He doesn’t scold Peter. He asks him one question, three times over, and Peter, hurt but honest, answers: “Lord, you know everything; you know that I love you.” Peter brings no excuses and no résumé. Only his (imperfect) love, offered with empty hands. The lyrics echo that same longing: “There’s gotta be something I can give You, some cross I can bear too.” We too may feel the desire to repay Jesus for what He has done. But can we? Never! He holds us and will “never cast a stone.” So what do we bring? The truth. Tell Jesus, as honestly as you can, where you faile...
