'Champions' by Ben Buhler: Embrace the Triumph of Faith


Ben Buhler's 'Champions' is a powerful declaration that God is always present, even during our toughest battles. The lyrics are all about recognizing that we're not just struggling to survive the situation, it's more! With God by our side, we overcome darkness and sin as champions! Ben Buhler sings, 'I'm not alone / Comforter, counselor, I'm yours to hold,' reminding you that whatever you're up against, you don't need to face it on your own. As one of His, He's got your back. He holds you upright and steps in (where needed) to fight your battle. 

Ben Buhler - ChampionsSure, situations can present themselves as daunting challenges, where you feel like it's do or die. 'Champions' reminds you, 'God, you're always there; help me fight this fight.' That's the divine support we He promises us, and it's as present as the air you breathe. The song looks beyond God fighting your battles; it's celebrating that the triumph is already sealed, victory already won. 'With you by my side, we are champions / Already won the war' - this is your rallying cry! 

Listen to 'Champions' when the 'night' seems too dark, or your path too winding. May Buhler's words, 'The devil ain't got no chance no more,' echo in your head and fill your heart. With God by your side, you will find strength, not just to face your fears but to conquer them. You're more than a conqueror; with God, you're a champion!

(Related scripture: Isaiah 41:10; Psalm 23:4; 2 Corinthians 12:9)

"Paper Lantern Heart" by MK Green: When God Lights a Fire You Can't Contain

What happens when God lights a fire in you?  Some fires refuse to stay hidden. MK Green wrote “Paper Lantern Heart” around that exact truth, inspired by Jeremiah 20:9, where the prophet admits that he tried to stop preaching but simply couldn’t. The Word burned inside him “like a fire shut up in my bones.” Green’s lyrics echo that same struggle: “Behind the bones inside my chest there burns a paper heart.” Cold turns to burning. Silence turns to song. “I was cold as stone until You lit a spark,” the chorus declares, and something about that image sticks with you long after the music fades.  Here’s the question worth pondering: What do you do when God ignites something in you that won’t stay quiet?  Jeremiah tried holding it in, and that exhausted him. “There is in my heart as it were a burning fire shut up in my bones, and I am weary with holding it in, and I cannot” (Jeremiah 20:9). That weariness sounds familiar, doesn’t it? Maybe you’ve felt the nudge to speak up, ...

"Set Free" by Kristin Ambuhl: Naming Your Real Enemy

What battle are you really fighting today?   Some enemies wear a smile. Kristin Ambuhl calls this out in her song “Set Free”. The song calls these enemies a “favorite shadow” who’s “throwin’ words like daggers” while “hiding behind your laughter.” This is much more than a person who is being difficult. Kristin wrote this song about the daily spiritual battles we face as believers — battles found in arrogant people, dark influences, and forces that work to pull us away from who God made us to be. Whether it’s small fights or big ones, she’s naming them all.  The song doesn’t stay stuck in the shadows. Kristin declares, “I’ve been set apart, I’ve been set free, from my enemies, against dark powers, rulers, and authorities.” Part of that line echoes Ephesians 6:12: “For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the cosmic powers over this present darkness, against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly places.” W...

"Come Alive" by Joel Lane: Finding Life Where Emptiness Used to Live

What if nothing you chase can truly fill the emptiness?  Emptiness has a way of following you around, no matter how fast you run. You chase a feeling (or things you believe will get you higher up “the ladder”), land on it for a moment, and then watch it slip through your fingers again. Joel Lane captures that feeling of restlessness in the opening lines of his song “Come Alive”: “Emptiness, chasing a feeling, trying to fill the void inside.” Sound familiar? Most of us have spent years searching for a purpose that felt just out of our reach.  Joel sings about how something happened that put everything in a different perspective. “You opened my eyes, now I see the light, I’m never going back.” That’s not a small statement. That’s a complete change of direction, a different way of living, a change the kind that can only happen when God steps into the picture.  The apostle Paul writes about this change of direction in Ephesians: “But God, being rich in mercy, because of the...
