Beautiful Song of Praise: Tasha Layton's "Praise (live)"


Tasha Layton's live version of "Praise" is a touching rendition of a song that topped the charts in 2024. The message in this song is so important that it cannot be overstated: "There are so many reasons to declare and praise God today! He deserves our continuous praise!" We're going to see this song back on her upcoming worship album that is releasing in March.

Tasha Layton - Praise (live) (Elevation Worship  Cover)The lyrics echo the message that no matter what situation we're in, God's love never wavers—never forgets, never abandons; we're never too broken for Him to heal. No matter how shaky life feels, He's holding it all together. Our praises aren't just a sound; it's an act that drowns out our enemies, and a shout that brings down walls, much like Jericho's fall.

Tasha urges us to praise God through every moment because His love is relentless and His grace covers all our flaws. Even when life tests us, it's songs like this one that help to remind us that God's in control (if you let Him). And as long as we live and breathe, we have endless reasons to worship. So ask yourself, how can you praise God today in your present circumstances? May you lift your voice and heart in unified adoration, knowing that He's always working behind the scenes for your good.

(Related scripture: Psalm 150:6; 1 Thessalonians 5:16-18; Psalm 34:1)

"The List Goes On (Jordan's Song)" by Chris Sarver: Finding Freedom in Faith

Have you ever felt the weight of the past (old chains) even after you're free? Chris Sarver's "The List Goes On (Jordan's Song)" addresses this specific struggle. Chris shared the following: "Like many of you, I have been part of text thread groups whose main purpose is for encouragement and prayer. … About four years ago, in one of those men's groups, my friend from church, Jordan Hanks, shared a message you can see in the picture. It was simple. He wrote about how sometimes we feel the old weight we carried before Jesus lifted it. And when that weight tries to creep back in, he reminds himself of the names Jesus has earned in his life. He is a Healer." In other words, when shame whispers lies, we must speak truth louder. The lyrics confess, "The chains are gone, sometimes I still find that I can feel their weight." Instead of hiding this feeling, Chris Sarver turns it into a moment of worship. He calls out names that Jesus has earned in...

"Man I Used To Be" by Dax: Half the Weight, Double the Faith

"Man I Used To Be" by Dax is a very personal song. Dax had promised himself that he wouldn't release new music until he'd stayed sober for six months, the time he needed to get his priorities straight and clear his mind. "Man I Used To Be" is the sound of his first clean breath, life with God by his side. Dax lays it bare: "Trials and tribulations, all my past trauma," he acknowledges, along with "generational curses from daddy and mama," and the "addictions that clouded my eyes." The honesty about his past struggles makes the message of this song so relatable and powerful.  The chorus is about the moment that the script was flipped, "I'm half the man I used to be." Not a broken man, but a man who has been freed from the burdens that weren't his to carry and kept him from God. "I don't ever chase, I got God," declaring that his new identity is anchored in faith. It's a shrug and a testimo...

'Lonely Dirt Road' by Dax: A Journey to Solitude and God

Dax's 'Lonely Dirt Road' is a conversation that Dax has with himself and God. Dax shares his journey of turning mental health walks into healing solitary drives. As you listen, you can almost feel the cruise, where it's just you, your thoughts, and God.  The chorus is so relatable: 'When I need space, that's where I go, a place to escape that nobody knows.' What do you do when life's pressures stack high? Do you also have a space where you can let go? That lonely dirt road that Dax sings about symbolizes solitude, but it is also an incredible opportunity for connecting with God.  Dax's honesty is raw and relatable. 'I didn't want my family to see me cry… dealing with the pressure of trying to provide.' There are times when we all put on a smile to hide how challenging situations may be. Like his father, Dax says that he finds peace on this lonely road, where challenges become opportunities to grow. This shows the core of our faith: that...
