'Born New: Journey to Zion II' by Kosj Yamoah - Celebrate Your True Birthday


Kosj Yamoah's 'BORN NEW: Journey to Zion II (J2Z2)' is a heartfelt anthem with an invitation to celebrate a deeper, spiritual rebirth. Kosj shares that August, his birth month, reminds him of the scars and scrapes he's gathered throughtout his life. As we get older, birthdays lose more and more of their sparkle. 'Born New' intends to reignite true joy by focusing on the day that you surrendered yourself to God - that moment you were truly born. 

Kosj Yamoah - BORN NEW: Journey to Zion II (J2Z2)In the first part of the song, Kosj centers his lyrics around keeping our eyes fixed on Jesus. He sings, 'I don't look to the left or to the right, I got my eyes on the prize I ain't turning back.' What a beautiful reminder to stay focused on your faith journey, followed by a repeated affirmation, 'Brand New, I'm Born New.'

The second part of the song invites you to celebrate a more important 'birthday,' your anniversary of the day that you surrendered yourself to Christ. As Kosj sings 'Happy Birthday' he encourages you celebrate your rebirth in Christ and look forward to the joy that He promises us. 

So, if you're in need of a spiritual pick-me-up, then take a moment to listen to this song. May it ignite a celebration of your new life in Christ and help you to feel 'Born New' every day.

What does it mean to truly surrender? Avery Stafford answers that question with conviction in "I'm Yours (Radio Edit)", a song that's finally getting its own moment in the spotlight. "I'm Yours" was originally released as part of the End of Five album back in 2012. This fan-favorite track blends Avery's characteristic gospel soul vibe with contemporary inspiration in a manner that feels both timeless and personal. It's the kind of song that doesn't just sound good, it continues to touch hearts and encourage our surrender to Him, our Savior.

"Vine" by Oludee: Fruitfulness Through Surrender

(by Jasper Tan) "Vine" by Oludee is a very beautiful, soulful song that talks about trust, surrender, and putting our Faith in God. What makes this song so beautiful is the musical choice that Oludee chose to produce with the given theme. It's easy listening and soulful, which can be a good song to listen to during our moments of devotion and personal worship with God. The opening lines of the song quickly establish the message that we can't just rely on ourselves in our day-to-day living, but it is important that we learn to recognize God in our lives.

"Joy of the Lord (444 Hz)" by Andy & Julie Frame: Eternal Reign and Righteous Love

What does it mean to truly experience joy — not the fleeting kind, but the kind that sustains you? Andy & Julie Frame answer that question beautifully in Joy of the Lord (444 Hz), a song that begins as an intimate Indie pop meditation and builds into full congregational worship. The song opens with a declaration: “The Lord our God shall reign forever.” Simple, powerful, and true. Our God is Truth, a righteous Judge, merciful, and full of love. If our God isn’t worth celebrating, then I don’t know what is! Ask yourself… What does His reign mean for you? Andy and Julie Frame sing: “He’s the God of Love” and “He gives sight so the blind can see // He sets all of the captives free.” And don’t forget, He has given us life! These aren’t just poetic lines! These are just a few of the many promises He has made to you and me! The chorus describes our response: “Praise to our God who’s given us life, the Joy of the Lord and His beautiful light,” and the bridge of the song declares: “Jesu...
