'Know You' by Marcus & Jalyn McGill: Experiencing God’s Presence


Marc & Jalyn McGill's song 'Know You' is about what it means to really value God's presence more than His promises. This track is from their brand-new album 'Between Barren & Beautiful.'

Marcus & Jalyn McGill - Know YouMarcus and Jalyn start the song by reminding us that while we often pray for God's promises to come true, it’s important that we don't lose sight of our love for Him. If you continuously put your relationship with God first, then His promises will follow. There is an important question in the pre-chorus that might really hit some people: 'Do I want God more than I want His promises?' Hopefully, this question will make you reflect on your spiritual journey.

I expect that you too will find yourself immersed in the chorus, singing, 'I wanna know You, just rest in who You are.' It's a call to experience God's heart and surrender your life to Him. And by the time you reach the bridge, the song's message should be loud and clear: the more you know God, the more you want Him. Keep your eyes fixed on God, focus on staying in His presence, and trust in His timing.

Take a break to listen to 'Know You.' May this message bring you closer to God, and help you to be patient. His promises will happen according to His timing.

(Related scripture: Matthew 6:33; Jeremiah 29:13; Psalm 16:11)

"He Knew" by Krystal Dawn Land: The Cost Christ Chose Before the Cradle

Jesus knew everything, and He came anyway! Let’s go back to the birth of Jesus, a newborn lying in the manger, part of a larger plan and fully aware of where His path would end before He came to earth. Krystal Dawn Land’s song, “He Knew”, opens with a question that stops you cold, especially if you consider how you would respond: “What if He knew? What if He saw? What if He knew the pain He’d face to give it all?” This isn’t idle speculation. The song walks through the full arc of Jesus’ story, “from the cradle to the cross” , and insists that nothing that happened caught Him off guard. He saw the betrayal coming. He saw the doubt, the walking away, “some would not believe, some would walk away.” And still, as Krystal sings, “He did… He knew all along. He still came… to right every wrong.” That kind of foreknowledge changes how we read Isaiah 53:3–5, where the prophet describes the Messiah as “despised and rejected by men, a man of sorrows.” Jesus wasn’t ambushed by suffering. He wal...

"Consider the Lilies" by Madison Earl: A Gentle Call to Trade Worry for Trust

Who carries your worries when they feel too heavy? Arizona worship leader Madison Earl wrote “Consider the Lilies” for anyone who has lain awake worrying about tomorrow’s problems. It is the third of four original songs she plans to release in 2026. The message for this song is inspired by Matthew 6:26–34. Madison’s hope is that listeners remember that “they don’t have to carry everything on their own.” The chorus asks the questions we all ask. “What will we eat? What will we drink? What will we wear?” Your questions may also be about an increase in rent, unpaid bills, test results, a difficult boss, a wayward child, and more… all of those questions fit. Then comes the answer: “He’s always there.” Jesus made the same point when He was sitting on a hillside. He told his listeners, “Look at the birds of the air: they neither sow nor reap nor gather into barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them.” Then he asked, “Are you not of more value than they?” Ask yourself that same questio...

"Lifeline" by Hudson Bezotte: Faith That Holds in Winter Seasons

Where do you turn when signs stop coming? Hudson Bezotte’s “Lifeline” opens with a confession, one you may also recognize. “I feel like I’ve been here a while.” He was met by Jesus as a child, and He “walked with me for miles.” But life happens, and it can be tough to keep the fire going “in the winter.” Have you been there, or is this where you’re at today? You still believe, but the wonder has cooled. Hudson wrote the song during a daily songwriting challenge, and the lyrics carry a lifetime of following Jesus: the disappointments, the desperation, and the hope that has outlasted them. He admits, “It’s not zero AD, I can’t just follow a star.” Nobody hands him a miracle on request. So he wrestles, and he demands “sign after sign.” God doesn’t scold him. He tears “through the nonsense” to remind Hudson (and each of us) that He is divine. That pattern runs through Scripture. Remember? Thomas wanted proof, and Jesus met him with nail-scarred hands. Then Jesus said something that ap...
