'Champions' by Ben Buhler: Embrace the Triumph of Faith


Ben Buhler's 'Champions' is a powerful declaration that God is always present, even during our toughest battles. The lyrics are all about recognizing that we're not just struggling to survive the situation, it's more! With God by our side, we overcome darkness and sin as champions! Ben Buhler sings, 'I'm not alone / Comforter, counselor, I'm yours to hold,' reminding you that whatever you're up against, you don't need to face it on your own. As one of His, He's got your back. He holds you upright and steps in (where needed) to fight your battle. 

Ben Buhler - ChampionsSure, situations can present themselves as daunting challenges, where you feel like it's do or die. 'Champions' reminds you, 'God, you're always there; help me fight this fight.' That's the divine support we He promises us, and it's as present as the air you breathe. The song looks beyond God fighting your battles; it's celebrating that the triumph is already sealed, victory already won. 'With you by my side, we are champions / Already won the war' - this is your rallying cry! 

Listen to 'Champions' when the 'night' seems too dark, or your path too winding. May Buhler's words, 'The devil ain't got no chance no more,' echo in your head and fill your heart. With God by your side, you will find strength, not just to face your fears but to conquer them. You're more than a conqueror; with God, you're a champion!

(Related scripture: Isaiah 41:10; Psalm 23:4; 2 Corinthians 12:9)

Rhett Walker - Man on the Middle Cross (CCM)

Rhett Walker's CCM song, 'Man on the Middle Cross,' is a powerful reflection on the profound impact of God's grace and mercy. The song was inspired by a sermon by Alistair Begg, focusing on the two men crucified alongside Jesus, and the transformative power of Christ's sacrifice. The lyrics vividly describe the scene of three wooden crosses on a hill, with two sinners on either side of Jesus. The first verse expresses the realization that, at times, we all can relate to the sinners on the crosses—feeling guilty, regretful, and undeserving of God's love and forgiveness. The chorus beautifully captures the experience of both sinners, acknowledging that one has been on the left, filled with guilt and regret, while the other has been on the right, always seeking conflict and thinking forgiveness is beyond reach. The overwhelming theme throughout the song is the recognition of God's grace and mercy, which are not earned or deserved but freely given to all. The br...

"Gravity Of Grace" by Carli Lessing: The Pull You Can't Outrun

Can His grace really pull you back when you’ve drifted this far?  Gravity never asks permission. Drop something, anything, and it falls back to earth without effort or argument. Carli Lessing compares gravity with the way that grace works. You don’t fight your way back into God’s reach. He pulls you there.  The lyrics open with a familiar confession: “I don’t need to run away, hiding from the truth.” Running doesn’t hide anything from God anyway. He “sees every last mistake and selfish path I choose,” and despite that, He stays put. Carli admits she still catches herself trying to earn what God already gave away. That instinct runs deep in all of us. We dress up our effort and call it faith, all while missing the actual gift that is sitting in front of us.  Look at Ephesians 2:8–9: “For by grace you have been saved through faith. And this is not your own doing; it is the gift of God, not a result of works, so that no one may boast.”   Grace isn’t a result of our wo...

"Guard My Heart From Lies" by whispering HOPE: Fully Changed, Fully His, Fully Free

When the lies crowd in, where do you run for truth? There is a whisper that knows exactly when to show up in your head. You hear it in the quiet moments — when doubt creeps in, when old wounds resurface, when confusion floods the mind before you have had a chance to stand firm. whispering HOPE wrote “Guard My Heart From Lies” from the very place where our battles for truth are fought, not on a stage but in the silence of your own thoughts. The song opens with a striking scene: “There’s a whisper at the window, speaking shadows to my mind, trying hard to steal the promise of the life You said was mine.” This enemy doesn’t need to shout. A whisper is more than enough to trigger the rest, unless you know whose voice to follow. And that is the reminder found in this song: “I don’t have to strive for rest, Your finished work has called me blessed.” This kind of rest isn’t something you earn or give yourself after a hard week. It is already yours. 2 Corinthians 5:17 makes this clear: “If a...
