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)

'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...

"Oceans (Hillsong Cover)" by Tiffany Ford - Stepping into the Unknown with Faith

Life can at times feel like a stormy sea! Do you recognize that feeling? Tiffany Ford does, and Oceans by Hillsong is one of her 'go-to' songs for those rough times in life. She released a beautiful cover of Oceans, and shared how faith became her anchor when her life seemed so overwhelming. "Seemed" is the key word here, because in her moments of doubt and fear she discovered that God was meeting her exactly where she stood — by her side as she stood on shaky ground or in deep waters.  Oceans is a favorite for many readers, a song that describes the tension we feel between trust and uncertainty: "You call me out upon the waters / The great unknown where feet may fail." It's a beautiful invitation to step out of your comfort zone, even when it feels quite risky. With this cover, Tiffany is reminding us (and herself) that He is there when we get of our comfort zone. We can count on Him being there to guide us —  "Your sovereign hand will be my guide...
