'Where Breakthrough Starts' by Maria Segerholm and Ed Marl: Finding Hope in Harmony


Maria Segerholm and Ed Marl bring a song that came to Maria during a dream last May. The song is called 'Where Breakthrough Starts.' Maria recalls that she could only remember parts of the melody when she woke up, and that she was singing the song as a duet with a man. She quickly got up and recorded a voice memo of what she remembered and was able to finish the song a couple days later. 

Maria Segerholm ft. Ed Marl - Where Breakthrough StartsMaria shares that she wanted this song to be a proclamation of hope in the midst of struggle, and emphasize that God already knows our concerns, before we even share them with Him (Matthew 6:8). 'Down on my knees, and I can't find the words, I know You know my concerns,' He is already attuned to every silent prayer and unshed tear. 

'Here in Your presence, is where breakthrough starts,' reminding us where true change starts, that God has the power to create 'rivers in deserts' (Isaiah 43:19), and bring peace through even a gentle breeze (1 Kings 19:12). Our God delivers us from fear (Psalm 34:4). 

We often ask God for breakthrough, and Maria felt that God was giving her the powerful realization that a breakthrough starts in His presence, at His feet. He was working then, He is working now, and He'll do it again (Joshua 23:8). That is a promise that you can count on! 

When God is part of your life, you won't be travelling through your valleys alone! It is at His feet that breakthrough starts. So, go ahead and turn up the volume, close your eyes, and let 'Where Breakthrough Starts' ignite a fire of faith in your heart. May this song encourage and guide you on your journey to Him, where He will bless you with a breakthrough that brings eternal joy and peace.

(Related scripture: Matthew 6:8; Isaiah 43:19; 1 Kings 19:12; Joshua 23:14)

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?

"More Than a Conqueror" by Doyin Teru: A Live Worship Experience of Unshakable Faith

Doyin Teru's live rendition of "More Than a Conqueror" is a powerful gospel song that declares God's unshakable love and provision. The song was recorded in Vienna with the J423 Community. Inspired by passages in Romans 8, reminding us that nothing—neither life, death, nor any power—can separate us from God's love. "Nothing will take Your Presence from my life" and "No one shall separate me from Your love" are  examples from the lyrics that are both a confession and also a celebration of the victory we all may experience through Christ. The inspiration for this song came to Bolaji Teru on December 10, 2022, when he woke up with a melody in his heart: "Nothing will take Your presence from my life; no one shall separate me from Your love." . A few months later, he was inspired to write the verse, drawing entirely from the Scriptures. The first verse is based on Romans 8:38, and the second verse comes from Romans 8:32, passages that emph...
