7 God-Loving Lyrics That Inspire Revival

Bing Images

We all have those songs that make us feel alive, that awaken something deep within us restoring our joy. If technology and I got along, I would smash all of the following bold lyrics into one song and fearlessly proclaim it over my life. Let these lyrics encourage your soul into dancing once again.

1. Overcome-- Jeremy Camp

"We will overcome by the blood of the Lamb and the word of our testimony, everyone overcome."

2. We Believe-- Newsboys

"And the gates of hell will not prevail!
For the power of God, has torn the vail!
Now we know Your love will never fail!
We believe, We believe!"

3. Build My Life-- Housefires

"And I will build my life upon your love it is a firm foundation
And I will put my trust in you alone and I will not be shaken"

4. No Longer Slaves-- Steffany Frizzell Gretzinger (Bethel Church)

We are confident sons and daughters singing out to Our Father.

"You split the sea
So I could walk right through it
My fears were drowned in perfect love
You rescued me
And I could stand and sing
I am a child of God."

5. Give Me A Song-- Will Reagan & United Pursuit

"I lift my hands if my hands fail me
I’ll bend my knees if my knees grow weak
I’ll raise my voice and sing, I’ll sing
I know that You love me"

6. Holy (Wedding Day) -- The City Harmonic

"This is the story of the Son of God
Hanging on the cross for me
And it ends with a bride and groom
And a wedding by a glassy sea"

7. King of My Heart (w/ spontaneous) -- Steffany Gretzinger, Jeremy Riddle, & Christine Rhee

"Let the king of my heart
Be the fire inside my veins
The echo of my days
He is my song"

The whole 17 minutes are worth it if only for background music.

The 7 songs have one thing in common: they declare victory over our circumstances. Jesus never falls off of His throne and He never will. Sometimes we have to remind our souls that they were made for freedom. Music has the ability to reach beyond the barriers of slavery.

Go about today with a new song on your lips, proclaiming victory in Jesus' name.

"For everyone who has been born of God overcomes the world. And this is the victory that has overcome the world—our faith." 1 John 5:4

Taylor Swift's Eras Tour is What I Hope Heaven Feels Like

By: James McDonald

3755

Taylor Swift in orange dress playing a moss-covered piano on stage with bright lights.

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

Students walking on a sunny college campus with trees and buildings.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

Sister | Brother Style - Word Press

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?
