"Wake Us to Pray" by Michelle K: Breathing Life into Brokenness


Michelle K (Kahnt) - Wake Us to Pray“Wake Us to Pray” by Michelle K is a wake-up call to find union in Christ and pray. Does your spirit feel heavy today? Michelle acknowledges this reality, asking, “My soul, why are you down?” The song doesn’t linger on the downside, but is an act of evangelism, urging us to “Come and put your hope in God.”

The message is clear: it calls us to “pray in the midst of the pain.” With God by our side, we have the capacity to shift our mindset. The first step is simple… “lift my gaze,” then invite the “Breath of God” to “Bring these bones back to life.” The lyrics empower us to believe that “When we pray, he lights the darkness // When we pray, he breaks down the walls.”

Do you want to see those walls break down? Then let His “refining fire” purify your heart. Realize your potential to usher in the breakthrough in your life, for “In his name, is the power of heaven // When we pray he opens the doors.”

May this song awaken you to the voice of the Lord. Go ahead and listen to “Wake Us to Pray”. Its message can change your life, starting today.

(Related scripture: Ezekiel 37:5; Ephesians 6:18; Joel 2:28)

"A Love Song" by Seek and Surrender: The Three-Stranded Covenant

(By Jasper Tan) We always see people say "I love you" to someone, professing their love to that significant other. But we often see how a marriage united by love easily shreds to tatters, and we ask ourselves, "Why?" Where did it all go wrong? How did something joined together by love easily get broken and be accepted as "falling out of love"? But the biggest thought that comes to mind while listening to Seek and Surrender's latest song, "A Love Song," is: do we really understand what it feels like to love? In Seek and Surrender's song, there are countless lines in which the singer professes his love to his bride. It seeks to highlight the sincerity of his love, the magnanimity, the pureness. But in those lines, there's this line that we all should focus on —  "If Christ gave Himself for His bride, Oh, then I'll give myself for mine." Do we know how Christ gave himself for his bride (the Church)? He sacrificed himself w...

John Mayer's Secret to Writing Catchy Song Lyrics

John Mayer's Secret to Writing Catchy Song Lyrics by Kapa Freeman  Why are John Mayer's song lyrics so easy to remember? It comes down to human psychology. I am notoriously bad at remembering song lyrics, except for John Mayer's Songs. Other artists may write a song I remember here or there, but John Mayer does it consistently. Why? I discovered the reason when I was working full-time as a teacher. Teachers can always tell when they're losing students. When those eyes start to glaze over, when that one eyebrow raises in confusion and someone yells out... "I don't get it!"  I got those a lot when I first started teaching. Talking to other teachers, I soon discovered why. I was giving too much information at once. I would vomit these elaborate explanations, thinking that more information would help clear things up... But they just got confused. Talking to my teachers reminded me of lessons I'd learned while getting my teaching degree:  "People remem...

"If Jesus Could (Walk on Water)" by John Fumo & Robert Fumo: A Funky Call to Compassion

Have you ever considered Jesus’s actions as a benchmark for our own compassion? In their funky, soulful new track, John and Robert Fumo do just that. In their song, “If Jesus Could (Walk on Water)”, the brothers Fumo share how easy it is to be compassionate and loving in light of the accomplishments and miracles which Jesus performed. In other words, His incredible acts should make our own acts of kindness feel entirely achievable.  For example, “If Jesus could …walk on water,” the lyrics challenge, “then we can …love one another.” There’s more… If He could feed thousands with a few fish and loaves, surely “it shouldn’t be hard to keep the people fed.”   The song reframes Jesus’s acts into a call to action. Instead of seeing insurmountable problems, we are reminded that if Christ could “rise from the dead, // We could trade hate for love instead.” The song not only triggers a paradigm shift, but it also empowers. At its core, it reminds us of Jesus’s promise that ...
