"Victory" by Jillian Schafer - Breaking Chains, Finding Freedom


Jillian Schafer's "Victory" is an amazing song, not just the lyrics, but also how this was created. Jillian shares, "One evening in the living room, I felt an overwhelming sense of peace and inspiration wash over me. It was as if the Holy Spirit was guiding my heart and hands. In just 30–45 minutes, the song "Victory" poured out of me a process that usually takes me hours or days."

Jillian Schafer - VictoryThe song is a celebration of Christ's triumph over sin and death, but even more important, it has a major message for you… right here and now! It's simple… it's an open invitation for you to ask God to be part of your life. This is how His sacrifice will also apply to you.

It's easy to see Jesus' sacrifice: "Wrongfully accused, willfully abused, heart-broken and bruised." You will hear Jillian sing about the hope that He brings, "A perfect sacrifice, Victory!" The lyrics take us to the time of Adam and Eve to remind us of how humanity fell and go from there to the freedom we may receive through His mercy: "Death cannot win, neither can sin, through Him, if we let Him in."

"… if we let Him in…," that's the key! You, me, we… we all need His victory to be part of our lives. We can sing and thank Him all day for His sacrifice and still ignore His call to action. His victory is yours if you open your heart, embrace His love, and step into the life He offers. May your heart and mind open the door to let Him in. He is already there and wants you to be part of His unshakable victory.

(Related scripture: Romans 5:12, 17-19; 1 Corinthians 15:54-57; Hebrews 2:14-15)

"Run There" by Hayden Snook: When Life Overwhelms, Here's Where to Go

What do you do when life feels like too much? When the noise, the pressure, and the emotional weight won't let up? Hayden Snook found his answer — and he wrote it into "Run There."  Born out of a moment of genuine overwhelm, this folk rock track doesn't pretend everything is fine. Instead, Snook leans into the tension. "I may stray, I may move — all those feelings held within me are nothing to Your victory." Our struggles are real, but so is the God who meets us in it.  The lyrics recall some of Scripture's most powerful moments, like David crying out in anguish, the stone rolling away, men standing firm in the face of death. These moments are proof and they give each of us hope that we can build on today. If God showed up then, He'll show up now.  "Run There" is an invitation to trust God. "You may stray, you may move — there's nothing our God can't do." So don't walk… Run to Him! Give "Run There" a listen...

(by Jasper Tan) "Heal Me O Lord" by Sandra Lamb is a powerful, soul-stirring gospel song that touches on themes of faith, surrender, and finding healing in God.
