"Good Bad Day" by Jay Davids: Turning Tough Days Into Worship


"Good Bad Day" by Jay Davids is a great song that reminds us that we already have the power to choose joy and praise, no matter what life throws our way. This power to choose is a freedom that nobody can take away from you, unless you let them. As Jay puts it, "Before you get out of bed, you have to choose what this day is going to be for you." The song opens with lines like "Woke up on the wrong side of the bed," but quickly shifts the focus, instead of letting tough circumstances define your day, Jay sings, "I'm gonna set my mind on You."

Jay Davids - Good Bad DayWhat makes it easier for us to shift our focus to joy and praise is the fact that God is on our side! Jay's song encourages us to focus on God's goodness, even when things feel chaotic--"You are good all the time / When it rains, when the sun shines." Whether your day is a good day or a bad one, the message is clear: He remains constant, and every moment in our lives offers us an opportunity to celebrate His name.

Jay's goal with this song? To create music that lifts our spirits and pushes us through hard times, and "Good Bad Day" does just that. May this song help to brighten your day and refocus your heart. Go ahead and press play-this might just become your new go-to song to start your day!

(Related scripture: Psalm 118:24; James 1:17; Isaiah 26:3)

Bryan & Katie Torwalt - Miracle In The Works (CCM)

Bryan & Katie Torwalt has released a Christian Contemporary Music (CCM) track called Miracle In The Works. LYRICS: Some may say it’s hopeless They must have never met my God  Some may say it’s over But it was finished on the cross Some may say it’s broken But the Healer’s in the room  Some may say it’s hopeless But I know    God’s about to move...   There’s a miracle in the works I can feel it There’s revival in the church I believe it   Some may see an ocean But He’s made a highway through Some may see a mountain  But we’ve seen a mountain move Some may see a graveyard But we’ve seen His empty tomb Some may see a battle But I know   Reignite us, reawaken Breath of God, come breathe again Like the dry bones started shaking All that died will live again  Oh the miracle You’re making The beginning not the end Eternity is waiting  To see Your church alive again   You are my miracle Jesus You are my miracle   #BryanandKatieTorw...

"Empty Hand" by Marcus & Jalyn McGill: Embracing God’s Presence as the Ultimate Gift

The idea behind Marcus & Jalyn McGill's new song, "Empty Hand," was triggered by a deeply personal season of infertility. One of their writers, Jennifer, had a vision where God was extending His hand to her, not holding the longed-for child, but an empty hand offering something much greater… His presence in the waiting. This vision became the center of this song and is an important message for anyone who is holding onto a wish/longing for a miracle that hasn't come to pass.  In this song we hear the message that comes along with His extended hand. "I've been watching as you've been waiting / As you focus on your lack," reminding us that it's so easy to get trapped in our pain when prayers don't seem to be answered. It's a pain that distracts and causes us to forget that He's "… more than enough." God already has a miracle for you, "I'm holding out My hand to you // Don't think because it's empty // I h...
