"Dare to Believe" by Charis B: Your Leap of Faith Is Bigger Than Your Giant


You've stood in the valley surrounded by your giants, while doubters (including your thoughts) are whispering and telling you that you can't do this! The circumstances are roaring, but your courage is shrinking. But what did David teach us? He showed us that the victory isn't found in the size of our strength! Victory is found in the depth of our faith!

Charis B - Dare to BelieveThat's the key message of "Dare to Believe" by Charis B. The song is inspired by young David, who stepped forward with nothing but a sling and a song in his soul. Charis isn't retelling David's story, she's inviting you into it. "Nobody believed // But you and me," how often have you felt that way? Nobody else can see what God was doing in you. God equips you, and He prepares you for what is to come! You don't need approval, all you need is action.

"I stepped out // With a rock and a sling // I did trust you" … and Goliath fell.

That's God's protocol! Faith isn't passive, it's a leap, a choice. It asks us to say "yes" when everyone else says "no." The song pulls you forward, stepping out to face the battle, to walk through it, armed with the weapon that God gives us, eyes on the One who holds the outcome.

So what's your giant today? Fear? Rejection? Delay?

"Dare to believe. // Take that step. // … // Call on God's power. // Now is the hour."

You were made for this. Listen, partner with God, and then rise.

(Related scripture: 1 Samuel 17:45; Hebrews 11:1; Mark 9:23)

"Lord You Are So Awesome" by Mario Tucker: Turning Everyday Moments into Praise

“Lord You Are So Awesome” by Mario Tucker is a reminder that worship doesn’t have to be complicated in order to be powerful. The song is based on the fact that what matters the most is that God’s greatness deserves our constant praise. Our praise doesn't have to meet any quality standards for it to be pleasing to God. So, ask yourself... when was the last time that you took a moment to say, “Lord you are so awesome / Lord you are so great / Your name is above the Heavens”? This song invites you to be constantly aware of God’s greatness, and that includes awareness outside the walls of church, like during car rides, your quiet time, and those precious triumphs in life. It's an awareness that leads to response. “So let’s praise and magnify your name.” Praise is not a matter of passively observing and responding... it’s a call to turn your admiration into active devotion. Think about it for a moment: what would change in your life if praise became your first reaction instead of ...

"Repentance (20th Anniversary Edition)" by Thoughts and Notions: Remembering Christ’s Love Through Repentance

Thoughts And Notions released a 20th Anniversary Edition of their song "Repentance," emphasizing that the weight and purpose of this message is still very relevant to us today.  The song was originally inspired by The Passion of the Christ and shaped by the songwriter's memory of seeing a lone cross high above the Swiss Alps. The key message is less about performance and more about our response. It places us at the foot of the cross. When you listen to the lyrics, you'll notice that it is a prayer in song form, and one that looks straight at Christ's suffering. It asks you to reflect on the question: "what will you do with such love?"   The lyrics begin with awe: "I looked at your bloodied face" and "you laid down your life." From there, the lyrics move into an honest confession. "God, how I've been such a fool" isn't despair or an excuse to stay trapped in guilt. It is the first step toward His grace, a journey o...

"At The Feet (Midnight)" by Action Worship: Surrender and Rest

(by Jasper Tan) After making a review of Action Worship's song "All Praise (Dawn)" early this year (which, by the way, moved me so much), Action Worship is here once more with a beautiful follow-up single called "At The Feet (Midnight)." Continuing their songwriting sessions at a beach house retreat, "At The Feet" is a powerful and once more immersive Christian contemporary worship song that captures a raw and intimate atmosphere of worship. Like their other previously released songs, the track is anchored in a "Beach House" setting, leaning on a warm, organic, and slightly lo-fi feel as compared to the more traditional stadium worship recordings of other Worship songs. This makes the song feel more like a shared spiritual experience rather than a polished studio recording. This has always been Action Worship's greatest strength with their songs. And this creative process has definitely defined the signature sound of the Action Worship te...
