Blessed by Yair Levi: Living Out Genesis 12:3 in Worship


"Blessed (Live)" by Yair Levi - Fresh from the "LIVE FROM THE NETHERLANDS EP". This song reflects one of the beautiful worship moments during Yair Levi's recent tour in the Netherlands. Yair shares that this song started with a shared prayer that was inspired by Genesis 12:3: "I will bless those who bless you." This song celebrates God's unchanging faithfulness and His covenant with Israel (Biblical). 

Yair Levi - Blessed (Live) | LIVE FROM THE NETHERLANDS EPThe lyrics speak about God's trustworthiness: "He is God, His words always perfect // God always the same." You can feel the awe as Yair sings, "Not one promise that He's ever spoken has failed." The chorus echoes Genesis 12:3, reminding us that God has promised to bless nations through His chosen people: "Through you all the people of this world will be blessed." 

Lines like "In His mercy He lovingly guides them // And scatters the darkness with light" remind us of His kindness and provision, it's not something that only applies to the chosen in the past, but also applies to the present… It also applies to you and me. "Blessed" is a song that declares faith, and just as important, it also declares unity. Genesis 12:3 doesn't say that through His chosen people He will only bless a few. It says: "Through you all the people of this world will be blessed." God unites, in God we are equal!

May this song stir your heart, encourage you to raise your praises, and mirror His light into the world. Go and be a blessing for others, and spread His word and unity in the world.

(Related scripture: Genesis 12:3; Numbers 23:19; Psalm 105:8-9)

"Compass (Phileo)" by Chelsea Chaisson: Navigating Life with Faith and Friends

"Compass (Phileo)" by Chelsea Chaisson explores one of the Greek words for love. This song focuses on "phileo" (friendship) and its vital role in life's storms. "Phileo" translates to love that is characterized by affection, fondness, and friendship. It's a warm, tender, and affectionate bond, often seen between friends, siblings, or within a community. It's more about the natural affection we have for those who are close to us.  Chelsea wrote this song when she returned home after living in Cambodia for two years. Faith brought her to Cambodia, sustained her there, and guided her back, but the journey left her feeling like "a little boat" lost in raging seas. At times we may feel like, "I'm drowning, drowning treading water in the wind // I'm drowning, drowning I could use a friend." It's a cry for connection, a reminder that we all need someone to anchor us when fear starts to take over. The fears and lies tha...
