"Land I’m Livin In" by Isaiah William: A Reminder of Unchanging Faithfulness


"Land I'm Livin In" by Isaiah William is a beautiful song, but the making of the song wasn't easy—it was a labor of love, with six different choruses written before they landed on the perfect one. For Isaiah William, this song is a reminder that God's goodness is always there, regardless of whether we feel it or not. The lyrics declare, "Surely I will see Your goodness // In the land I'm livin'," expressing hope that we can trust God to do for us what He has done for others so many times before. God's goodness is always there, even when we can't feel it.

Isaiah William - Land I'm Livin InThe lyrics are inspired by well-known Bible stories about faith and how God provided. It's lines like "Give us faith // Like Daniel in the lion's den" and "Like Elijah fed by the raven's hand" that remind us that God has always been true to His promises; He is there, even before we call out. The song calls us to have faith that His plan "is working for better" even when "the stream dries up." Our challenge is to be strong and unconditionally place our trust in God, because "goodness is who You are."

Sure, there are hard times in life, and there will be more to come, but that shouldn't stop us from relying on God's unchanging love. God's goodness is always there, even when we don't feel it. "Even when we run, we're still held in Your hands," Isaiah sings. God promises that you will never be alone. God is already there by your side, waiting for you to let Him become part of your life. Go ahead and give this song a listen. May this song encourage you to reach out to God and place your trust in His promises.

(Related scripture: Psalm 27:14; Psalm 34:8; Romans 8:28)

"Your Love" by Kevin Winebarger - When Mercy Becomes Your Identity

Kevin Winebarger teamed up with Joshua Frerichs and Benji Cowart to create this beautiful song. "Your Love" tackles that discouraging voice we all hear from time to time, the one that whispers that we're not enough and that we are defined by our past. "Once a liar, always a liar," and all kinds of variations along this same line of thought. This song isn't about wallowing in shame. "Your Love" is a celebration of the grace that changes everything.  The opening lines hit hard: "I could believe that I'm not enough // It's clear to see I don't measure up." Yep, we've all been there! But this isn't how God want us to be defined… He loved us first! "It's just what You've done // Because of Your love." That's the heart of everything.  Kevin places the change the God brings into perspective, "I could believe that my mistakes // Will follow me down into the grave // But I'm not who I was....

"Come Let Us Go" by NARROWAY: Journey to the Mountain of Light

It's difficult to imagine that there will be a day when all nations are tired of the chaos and finally ask, "Where do we go from here?" The answer to that question is the theme of NARROWAY's "Come, Let Us Go." The lyrics are inspired by Isaiah 2 and Micah 4, and look forward to "… the days that are coming, the mountain will rise // Lifted above all the nations and skies // People will gather from near and far // Saying, "Let's go to where His teachings are." As we observe the chaos in the world, the wars, and the rumor of wars, it's hard to imagine that "Swords turned to plows, war fades away // Shalom will reign in Yah's good way." Believe it or not, there will be a day with "No more fear, no more fight // Just His Torah shining bright." But the key message of this song isn't a distant promise! The lyrics pull us to the here and now… our present reality. The reality is that God's Kingdom is stepping on...

'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...
