"In My Reach" by Island Tribe Collective: Believing that God is always within our reach


Every promise of God is within reach.

(by Jasper Tan) “In My Reach” by Island Tribe Collective ft. Jonathan Nelson & Sherwin Gardner is a joyful, high-energy gospel anthem that celebrates our Faith, persistence, and our joyful declaration of worship and Faithfulness to our God. It encourages us to a call to action if we are in our seasons of doubt and uncertainty. The central theme of the song is our belief that God’s faithfulness is actively setting the stage for “something bigger” and “something greater” (0:15–0:30, 0:59–1:14) for us. It reminds us that the challenges that we face are part of God’s larger plan for us, suggesting that even if it feels like our prayers are not immediately granted, God is just preparing us for a breakthrough, for God always keeps his promises. “And I am sure of this, that he who began a good work in you will bring it to completion at the day of Jesus Christ” (Philippians 1:6, ESV). 

Island Tribe Collective - In My ReachOur Faith in God is not just a passive state, but with phrases like “the more I pray,” “the more I work,” “the more I push,” and “the more I press” (0:41–0:48, 2:06–2:14), we are encouraged to keep an active commitment to our God by also showing our diligent effort to communicate and pray to him. And build our relationship with him by making it a constant part of our daily lives. And that we should keep “stepping in faith” even when the breakthrough hasn’t manifested yet (5:30–5:49). 

The song is inspiring us to continue to affirm that God’s promise is always within reach, as highlighted by the chorus “It’s in my reach” (0:30, 2:19, 3:18). We are encouraged to claim victory in our lives, family, and the future before us. May this song remind you that showing up matters, even when the results are invisible. That our desires for healing, deliverance, and financial blessings (3:34–3:47) are attainable if we just put our complete trust and faith in God.

(Related scripture: Philippians 1:6; 1 Corinthians 2:9; Ephesians 3:20)

"Jesus Is His Name" by Aaron Goodhew: The Name That Changes Everything

“Jesus Is His Name” by Aaron Goodhew is a song written as a Christ-centred declaration of who God is and what He has done. The song begins by asking, “Who designed creation and called it into being?” and quickly answers by pointing our eyes “high above the heavens” and leading us to the very place “where he rests his feet.” In other words, this is worship from creation to restoration. Each verse walks through different parts of Christ’s work: parting waters, calming storms, healing lepers, restoring outcasts, setting captives free. The chorus invites the church to confess together: "He is the Lord God // Lifted up // Mighty to be praised // Sovereign King of kings // Name above all names." But most of all, He is the personal Savior “The one who paid our ransom // The one who saved a wretch like me.” The bridge crowns this declaration, calling Jesus “wonderful counsellor, mighty king and friend,” the Lion and the Lamb whose glory we cannot fully comprehend. A declaration...

Vertical Worship - Blessed (CCM)

Vertical Worship has released a Christian Contemporary Music (CCM) track called Blessed. The Beatitudes serve as the inspiration for this new track. Quoting Vertical Worship: “The first line of the sermon on the mount, ‘Blessed are the poor in Spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven’ are words that we may be familiar with, but hold a profound invitation from Jesus. It is not those who have it all figured out, or have all the answers that will know more of His kingdom, but rather those who recognize their need of Him. And more of Him means more of His rule, His reign in my life. His law is love and He comes near with mercy.” They continued, “So, quite simply, that’s where the song started, from a place of remembering, a place of trust that when we turn to Jesus, we gain more of Him. And more of Him means more of His presence, His peace, His love. For what does it matter to gain the whole world, but forfeit our soul? What a gift that we get to at any moment recognize our deep need fo...
