'DNA' by Yemi Alafifuni: Unmasking the Divine Impression within You


Yemi Alafifuni's 'DNA' succeeds in building a connection between the earthly and the divine, with a beat as contagious as the profoundly instilled truth within it. This piece of contemporary Christian music, arranged to an Afrobeat melody, conveys a timeless message rooted deep inside everyone's DNA: that every life is the masterful work of a loving Creator.

Yemi Alafifuni - DNAThis song, based on Isaiah 64:8, tells us, 'O Lord, you are our Father; we are the clay, and you are our potter; we are all the work of your hand.' Any one of us may stray and lose our course as we go through life's highs and lows, longings and joys. The Shepherd, on the other hand, is always nearby, calling us back to the fold, because the seed of righteousness lives within us, it is our true DNA.

'Every breath I take, every beat of my heart/I feel it in my bones' - the lyrics echo the fundamental reality that God's presence is not a high abstraction. It is as real and as substantial as our breathing, heartbeat, and bone marrow. You can't run away from it, nor can you shake it. Embracing this essence, the term 'DNA' emphasizes that within each of us is much more than simply genes - it contains the love of our Heavenly Father, the ultimate source of our identity.

Allow the colorful rhythms of this song to remind you of God's unchanging love lying within your DNA. Remember that even in times of doubt, God's love remains faithful to those who seek Him.

(Related scripture: Isaiah 64:8; Jeremiah 13:23; Acts 17:28)

"Hiding Place (Live)" by DBU Chapel Worship: Forgiven, Covered, and Free

How often do you hear worship songs being sung live in the comforts of your day-to-day living? For sure, there are a dime a dozen. Some you commonly share with the person next to you, featuring songs by popular Christian Artists. But there's a certain form of unique sincerity when one discovers a worship song that is yet to break through to a larger audience. This is how the song "Hiding Place" by DBU Chapel Worship featuring Olivia-Grace McKern felt like when I first listened to the song. It felt like a new testimony being told, of one's dedication to find God and remain in his presence.  Taking root from Psalm 32, the song is a collaboration of Olivia with a host of songwriters from the DBU Chapel Worship. Enriching her experience as a songwriter and moving her through the songwriting process. In perhaps a reflection of what the song eventually became, it wasn't so that Olivia conveniently hid behind the DBU Chapel Worship songwriters/musicians. This song is a c...

'Lonely Dirt Road' by Dax: A Journey to Solitude and God

Dax's 'Lonely Dirt Road' is a conversation that Dax has with himself and God. Dax shares his journey of turning mental health walks into healing solitary drives. As you listen, you can almost feel the cruise, where it's just you, your thoughts, and God.  The chorus is so relatable: 'When I need space, that's where I go, a place to escape that nobody knows.' What do you do when life's pressures stack high? Do you also have a space where you can let go? That lonely dirt road that Dax sings about symbolizes solitude, but it is also an incredible opportunity for connecting with God.  Dax's honesty is raw and relatable. 'I didn't want my family to see me cry… dealing with the pressure of trying to provide.' There are times when we all put on a smile to hide how challenging situations may be. Like his father, Dax says that he finds peace on this lonely road, where challenges become opportunities to grow. This shows the core of our faith: that...
