The old hymns are still highly treasured and in terms of active prayer life, it’s one thing to have this song in the hymn book dusted down and sang every once in a while, it is another thing for it bto be a desperate cry in the middle of hard times and having no one […]
Read More I Must Tell Jesus – Parkes Stewart, Deitrick Haddon and Marvin WinansSo much to say about this beautiful video – how does he do it? By the grace of God. Just check it for yourself, quality stuff right here. For His Name’s Sake Shalom dmcd
Read More Getting It Straight with Marvin Winans … and Sweet Hour of PrayerI believe in the power of prayer, because it is inextricably linked to the power of God. It is ongoing communication with God and it works. By works I don’t mean it as the magic genie that grants all the wishes. I mean it as that vital element of life that allows me to share […]
Read More Lay Hands & Alleluia – Larry Gaitlin and Gaitlin BrothersI did a public prayer for the first time in ages recently and it was weird. Weird in the sense that there are certain factors that you consider when you do a public prayer that you might not consider in a private closet prayer. In as much as it’s a prayer to God on behalf […]
Read More Real PrayerThere is a very real danger of loving music for the effect it has on you and so leaning more towards music power rather than the power of the spirit of the song itself especially as expressed in the truth of the words that make it.

Read More This Is The Time – Terry MacAlmonSo still on the relationship trip that we’ve been on for a few days now and there’s something marvellous about the relationship we develop with God that moves us beyond piety and pretence to desperation and admitted nakedness. It’s easy to put on masks for the public but in prayer to develop a knowing of […]
Read More I Need You Now – Smokie NorfulSo following the relationship deal, there is something very important about following Jesus and that’s recognising that we cannot make it on our own. Not only do we need others in physical and practical terms, it is reassuring to know that when you cannot do much you can still pray. When I say pray, I’m […]
Read More Cover Me – 21:03It’s another Sabbath evening. These are precious, precious times. Times to physically, mentally and spiritually unwind. The rest offered on this day is one in which I am refreshed in the presence of God. It’s as though as I relax further I’m able to give him all the week’s stuff and He in return gives […]
Read More Prayer – Taking A Load OffYou know I’ve been mentioning assignments of late, well tonight is a very interesting one as I have to complete another one. I believe it really is the last proper assignment that I’ll have to do for a while, so if I can put in the effort over the next hour or so then I […]
Read More Dealing With Cares: Sing A SongSo this is blog entry 150 for the year. One short of equalling the year’s record set in 2007 and thus only two short of exceeding that record and at the rate of entries on course to break that mystical 200 barrier. Not that it’s about idolising minutiae of blog entries, but it is about […]
