"Come to Your Throne (Live)" by Arcadia Worship: Honest Prayers, Restored Hearts


"Come to Your Throne (Live)" by Arcadia Worship is both a confession and a surrender. It's an invitation for the Spirit to break through our hardness and make us whole again. The song was written from a place of struggling between guilt and grace. 

The song starts with a prayerful confession, "Honestly, I come to Your throne." God makes it clear that we may come as we are, without polished prayers, and with all of our faults and imperfections. God asks us to come to Him with an honest heart. 

Arcadia Worship - Come to Your Throne (Live)This musical prayer continues with, "Shatter this heart I have of stone." Yes, we may admit our brokenness to God. But instead of feeling despair, we may know that each confession brings us closer to healing. We may ask Him: "Create a pure heart in me, God." Haven't we all needed that same prayer at some point in our lives? 

What I love about this song is its invitation. It's an invitation to really see God, not as a distant God, but to see God as "relentless with [His] love," eager to fill the empty parts of our lives and restore that which is broken. Most of all, this song teaches us that wholeness (healing) is found when we let go and allow the Spirit to do what only He can do. So, go ahead and listen closely. May these lyrics meet you where you are and then lead you to His throne, where you are truly welcome.

Skillet - Valley of Death (CCM)

Skillet has released a Christian Contemporary Music (CCM) track called Valley of Death. The global health crisis of the last two years has led to numerous questions regarding why bad things happen to good people. Skillet's John Cooper explains why he believes God allowed the pandemic to happen. Skillet has released their new album Dominion through Atlantic Records last Friday (Jan. 14). A discussion with 'Loudwire Nights' host Toni Gonzalez brought up the track "Valley of Death," which contains the lyrics: "Someone said this is all part of the plan / But I don't understand." Gonzalez then asked him why he thinks God would allow a pandemic. This is what Cooper said: "Well, the first answer is that we're not good people. We're all fallen and we are all in desperate need of salvation through Jesus. So, we're not actually good people, we all do bad stuff. We all cheat, we've all lied, we're all greedy and as much as the most lov...

"Sunlight (Storge)" by Chelsea Chaisson: Reminisce the Simpler Times

(by Jasper Tan) Feel good, light-hearted, easy listening track. That's how I find Chelsea Chaisson's new single called "Sunlight (Storge)." I was kind of curious what the word "Storge" means, so I had to look it up. According to Wikipedia, "Storge is a Greek word that refers to natural, familial affection or love, particularly the bond between parents and children, as well as among family members and close friends. It is characterized by familiarity, dependence, and loyalty, often rooted in kinship bonds and shared experiences." Sounds very familiar? Of course, it should be, because as per the description, it actually describes what Christian love is. Or should I say how God loves us as His children? Chelsea was inspired to write this song by reminiscing about her childhood, marked by simpler times spent with her cousins and their grandma.  Countless times, we always heard the saying that we all should have faith like a child. The reason for that i...

"In the Room" by Matt Maher feat. Chris Brown: A Heartfelt Desire for Divine Presence

Matt Maher's collaboration with Chris Brown, 'In the Room,' is a soul-stirring Christian song that encapsulates the profound longing to witness transformative moments in the presence of God. The lyrics express the desire to be present when God's power touches broken hearts, ignites faith, and brings healing. The song's verses convey a yearning for those irreplaceable instances when heaven and earth intersect, leading to changed hearts and restored lives. The chorus's declaration, ' I just wanna be in the room when You move,' beautifully encapsulates the eagerness to witness God's miraculous work up close. The bridge's vivid imagery of tearing off the roof and pushing through the crowd reflects the determination to encounter God, no matter the obstacles. The repetition of the bridge emphasizes the earnest plea to witness God's breakthroughs and freedom. 'In the Room' is an invitation to be part of moments that are greater than oneself...
