Nina Grace's "Overcome": A Song of Faith and Victory


Nina Grace's song "Overcome" is inspired by Exodus 14 and 15. The scripture recalls how Moses led the Israelites across the Red Sea. You can imagine their initial fear as they were trapped between the Egyptians and sea. A fear that rapidly changed when they witnessed how the Lord delivered them by parting the Red Sea. After this experience, they declared, "The Lord is my salvation!" 

Nina Grace - OvercomeWhat was true in the days of Moses remains true today. God is always faithful, even when our own faith wavers. When you realize that God is already present, waiting for you, this turns into a call for us to come into action. Just like Nina sings, we need to hold onto God during our broken moments. That's when His promises will renew us. The lyrics encourage us to stand strong and fearlessly proclaim that God is our salvation. 

Nina's lyrics repeatedly remind us of His faithfulness: "When my faith is shaken, I'll hold fast to you" and "Lord, you've been so faithful." The chorus triumphantly declares, "I will not fear, for the Lord is my salvation."  

"Overcome" is a great reminder for everyone who is struggling with doubts and encourages a steadfast faith in God's unfailing love and victory. May this song help you to surrender your doubts to Him, grow your faith in Him, and declare that He is Lord and reigns forever.

(Related scripture: Exodus chapters 14 and 15; Isaiah 41:10; 2 Timothy 1:7; Romans 8:37)

Skillet - Valley of Death (CCM)

Skillet has released a Christian Contemporary Music (CCM) track called Valley of Death. The global health crisis of the last two years has led to numerous questions regarding why bad things happen to good people. Skillet's John Cooper explains why he believes God allowed the pandemic to happen. Skillet has released their new album Dominion through Atlantic Records last Friday (Jan. 14). A discussion with 'Loudwire Nights' host Toni Gonzalez brought up the track "Valley of Death," which contains the lyrics: "Someone said this is all part of the plan / But I don't understand." Gonzalez then asked him why he thinks God would allow a pandemic. This is what Cooper said: "Well, the first answer is that we're not good people. We're all fallen and we are all in desperate need of salvation through Jesus. So, we're not actually good people, we all do bad stuff. We all cheat, we've all lied, we're all greedy and as much as the most lov...

"In the Room" by Matt Maher feat. Chris Brown: A Heartfelt Desire for Divine Presence

Matt Maher's collaboration with Chris Brown, 'In the Room,' is a soul-stirring Christian song that encapsulates the profound longing to witness transformative moments in the presence of God. The lyrics express the desire to be present when God's power touches broken hearts, ignites faith, and brings healing. The song's verses convey a yearning for those irreplaceable instances when heaven and earth intersect, leading to changed hearts and restored lives. The chorus's declaration, ' I just wanna be in the room when You move,' beautifully encapsulates the eagerness to witness God's miraculous work up close. The bridge's vivid imagery of tearing off the roof and pushing through the crowd reflects the determination to encounter God, no matter the obstacles. The repetition of the bridge emphasizes the earnest plea to witness God's breakthroughs and freedom. 'In the Room' is an invitation to be part of moments that are greater than oneself...

"How Glorious" by Red Letter Society: Why This Song Unites the Church

"How Glorious" by Red Letter Society is a Trinity-focused song that pulls you into worship. Written by Justin Tweito and Jordan West, the song calls us to return to the heart of our faith. The opening line, "How wonderful is the cross of Christ,"  draws us into praise.  The song invites us to repentance and faith, but more importantly, the lyrics magnify the Trinity: the Father's eternal plan, the Son's sacrifice, and the Spirit's ongoing work in us. The song celebrates how every part of God is involved in redeeming us!  Have you ever wondered how a song can feel so unifying? That's the beauty of this song! It calls us, the Church, to stand together in bold praise. Instead of focusing on what divides us, it points us upwards, looking to our God who is glorious in love, power, and purpose. It encourages us to see the love of the Father, the blood of the Son, and how it is applied by the Holy Spirit.  There's no abstract theology in this song… the ...
