"Fire Fall" by Joseph Craft - Ignite Your Faith


Joseph Craft's "Fire Fall" is a cry for surrender, a song that invites the Spirit to "set my soul ablaze." The first lines of the song place you before God: "Here in Your presence I stand // Fully surrendered to You." And what is it that Joseph asks? "Spirit awaken inside of me // Invade my heart again." Is this scenario too distant to imagine? God is much closer than many people think! He is only a prayer away… On a bended knee, we invite Him to be part of our lives.

Joseph Craft - Fire Fall"Are you ready to let go of everything holding you back?" That's the big question that kept going through my mind as I listened to this song. This is Joseph Craft's debut release, a song about desiring the fullness of God by sacrificing ourselves completely to Jesus. Joseph wrote, performed, and produced this song himself.

You'll love the lyrics, such as "Spirit set my soul ablaze" and "Give me undying desire for all that You are," a humble prayer that follows the many examples we find in the Bible. There's no holding back in this plea. The imagery of fire used in the song represents both the cleansing and an unquenchable hunger for God's will. When Joseph sings, "Humbly I bow before You, I give You my all," you can sense the deepness of this surrender in a beautiful way. 

If you've ever wanted to press the reset button on your spiritual life or just simply crave to be closer to God, then give this song a listen. May you listen to it with an open heart, and possibly you may just find yourself praying along. Enjoy!

"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...

"Praise You In The Morning" by Taylor Pride: Waking up to the sound of Worship

(by Jasper Tan) Taylor Pride's latest single, "Praise You In The Morning" is an uplifting song that is a powerful reminder of God's faithfulness in different seasons and circumstances. The song is an acknowledgement that even if we are facing hardships and difficulties, we should still continue to praise God, for he is our provider and protector. And that he has promised to redeem us in his perfect time. The song follows an established style of Taylor's "heart-on-your-sleeve" type of worship song, drawing inspiration for this song's music from the likes of Cody Carnes and Phil Wickham's songs, the likes of which are simple with an easy-to-sing chorus layered by joyful sounds. The lyrics serve as a prayer for those in the "desert seasons," suggesting that praise is a choice made even in times of uncertainty with our faith. The song uses the transition from night to day as a metaphor for moving from weeping to hope. It is a modern worship...
