'Dance with the Devil' by Brittany Bexton: Breaking Free from Destructive Cycles


Brittany Bexton's new song 'Dance with the Devil' is a powerful song that we believe you want to hear. Brittany, a Nashville singer/songwriter, digs deep into her own pain and the heartache that she sees in so many other people who are in abusive relationships. She knows how hard it is to watch loved ones suffer. She says, 'Kick that devil to the curb, you deserve so much better!' This song is her way of shouting out all of the things that she couldn't say before, and hopefully giving others the courage to break free from their own destructive cycles.

Brittany Bexton - Dance with the DevilThe message applies to a broader scope than abusive relationships. It also applies to any situation where you are controlled or pushed to do things against your will. E.g., situations where partners stop you from living your faith or limit you to becoming the best version of you. That is also a form of abuse!

The lyrics are powerful, especially when you realize where Brittany is coming from. She sings, 'You've been pulled through hell long enough, when someone chooses to hurt you, it isn't love,' and you can almost feel the weight lifting off your shoulders when you realize that you're not the only one that is going through this kind of situation. Brittany points out that it's not your job to fix whatever is already broken. When talking is getting you nowhere, then your best action is to find your worth and walk away from people that hurt you.

This line is really striking: 'You think if you spin around again, you'll make the devil dizzy and stop the sin.' In other words, you can't change people who won't see the truth. It's impossible to dance with the devil and not get hurt.

We suggest that you listen to 'Dance with the Devil.' When you realize that your dancing with the devil, may this song remind you that you're not alone and that you can get through it with God's help.

(Related scripture: 1 Corinthians 10:13; Ephesians 6:13; James 4:7)

"I Will Rejoice" by Maria Segerholm: Thankful for the Sunshine and the Rain

Joy is a choice you can make today. “I Will Rejoice” by Maria Segerholm is a song of joy and praise, and her message is that joy is a choice despite the challenges we face. Maria has been called a happy person since she was a little girl. The unexpected happened, the trials came. Seasons arrived when her joy faded, and she says the enemy worked hard to steal her joy. Does that sound familiar? Those seasons didn’t last. Over the past few years, God has taught Maria what it means to rejoice in Him at all times, and this song, “I Will Rejoice”, grew from that lesson. Listen to how she sings it. Clouds try to block her light, yet she won’t stay down. Pain tries to break her praise, so she sings His Name. Fear shakes her soul, and she gives thanks “cause I know You’re good.” Notice the words that Maria uses: Clouds, pain, fear, and noise… They all “try,” but none of them win. Joy here is a choice that she makes again and again, long before her feelings catch up. The bridge pushes further....

“I Believe” by Reagan Nichole: A Ten-Year-Old’s Bold Declaration of Faith

What if darkness can’t stay where Jesus lives? Eleven-year-old Reagan Nichole from Texas wrote “I Believe” right after she turned ten. Most of us wait decades before saying what we believe out loud. She sings it! Her opening lines name a fear many people quietly carry with them: “You think that you’ve gone way too far, that there’s no way to turn back.” Have you ever felt that? Reagan reminds us of a promise. Jesus “will wash you clean.” No résumé required. No catching up. She calls the song her personal declaration that Jesus Christ is the Son of God. Her faith isn’t a Sunday event. It lives in everyday life and turns dark to light. She sings: “I know He makes the darkness flee.” Jesus said the same thing long before any songwriter did. In John 8:12 He tells us, “I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will not walk in darkness, but will have the light of life.” Notice the verb, “…follow …” . His light isn’t something you earn. You walk in it, one step at a time, right in t...

"A Mighty Fortress Is Our God" by Robby Robinson & Andrea Hammond: Stand Firm in His Victory

What fortress stands when everything else shakes? Martin Luther wrote “A Mighty Fortress Is Our God” in a time of upheaval. Now Robby Robinson and Andrea Hammond have given this hymn a fresh voice, released just in time for Reformation Week. The arrangement begins softly with piano and a single violin. Then Andrea sings, and it builds into a joyful, uplifting orchestral arrangement with layered strings, piano, and Andrea’s soaring violin. That journey mirrors the faith that we all may find in the lyrics. “A mighty fortress is our God, a sword and shield victorious.” The song doesn’t start loud. It starts with trust, and trust in God is where strength begins. Where do you run when the pressure rises? Many of us reach for busyness, control, or even worry. They crumble. The hymn points to something much more sturdy: “He breaks the cruel oppressor’s rod and wins salvation glorious.” Whatever is binding you has already met its match… in God. Psalm 46:1 says it plainly: “God is our refuge ...
