'Consecrated ' by Cindy Clark: A Prayer for True Healing


'Consecrated' Cindy Clark is a relatable song, especially if you've faced the dark nights of despair or walked along rocky paths that are filled with personal struggles, such as depression and loss. Cindy's songs are born out of her struggles with depression, chronic pain, addiction, and devastating losses, and even more important, the lyrics point to the healing power that we all may find in singing God's word. 

Cindy Clark - ConsecratedWith 'Consecrated,' Cindy points us to a place of healing and growing our relationship with God. A relationship where we long for more intimacy and more time in His presence. 

Cindy starts each verse with a plea, to be set apart. 'Set me apart to sing your praise I lift up my hands to worship // Open up my ears to hear your voice so I can follow you // I wanna see your beauty // I want to enter in.' Can you already see yourself praising Him and having an intimate conversation with our Savior? 

This is the yearning that Cindy is sharing, a yearning for something so pure that it cancels out all of the noise, and to 'buy salve for my eyes and robes of white' as Cindy sings. It's a genuine desire to live a life for His glory. The great thing about it is that everyone can do this, including you and me! We need to first let God into our hearts, ask Him to change the way we think and how we perceive things, and ask Him to help us remember that we're not alone on this journey… because He is by our side. 

Listen to the message found in 'Consecrated' and allow it to fill your heart with its truth. Cindy encourages you to step closer to God's all-consuming fire, a fire that brings you the deliverance, hope, and consecration that you desire.

(Related scripture: Psalm 51:10; Romans 12:1-2; Revelation 3:18)

"At The Feet (Midnight)" by Action Worship: Surrender and Rest

(by Jasper Tan) After making a review of Action Worship's song "All Praise (Dawn)" early this year (which, by the way, moved me so much), Action Worship is here once more with a beautiful follow-up single called "At The Feet (Midnight)." Continuing their songwriting sessions at a beach house retreat, "At The Feet" is a powerful and once more immersive Christian contemporary worship song that captures a raw and intimate atmosphere of worship. Like their other previously released songs, the track is anchored in a "Beach House" setting, leaning on a warm, organic, and slightly lo-fi feel as compared to the more traditional stadium worship recordings of other Worship songs. This makes the song feel more like a shared spiritual experience rather than a polished studio recording. This has always been Action Worship's greatest strength with their songs. And this creative process has definitely defined the signature sound of the Action Worship te...

"Lord You Are So Awesome" by Mario Tucker: Turning Everyday Moments into Praise

“Lord You Are So Awesome” by Mario Tucker is a reminder that worship doesn’t have to be complicated in order to be powerful. The song is based on the fact that what matters the most is that God’s greatness deserves our constant praise. Our praise doesn't have to meet any quality standards for it to be pleasing to God. So, ask yourself... when was the last time that you took a moment to say, “Lord you are so awesome / Lord you are so great / Your name is above the Heavens”? This song invites you to be constantly aware of God’s greatness, and that includes awareness outside the walls of church, like during car rides, your quiet time, and those precious triumphs in life. It's an awareness that leads to response. “So let’s praise and magnify your name.” Praise is not a matter of passively observing and responding... it’s a call to turn your admiration into active devotion. Think about it for a moment: what would change in your life if praise became your first reaction instead of ...

"Psalm 9 (Thank You)" by Red Letter Society: God's Sovereign Justice

Jordan West and the Red Letter Society continue their ambitious journey through the Psalms. "Psalm 9 (Thank You)" is a message of thanksgiving to a sovereign, righteous God who defends the oppressed and judges evil with perfect justice.  The song emphasizes the two core promises found in Psalm 9: "The Lord is a refuge for the oppressed, a stronghold in times of trouble." And, those who know God's name can trust Him, because He "has never forsaken those who seek Him." So, what do you do when depression fills your heart? Do you feel abandoned? Instead of focusing on pain, this song declares that God remains seated through (your) chaos. He is and always will be a stronghold even when "war" draws near. The lyrics ask: "My trials feel unseen // Have you forsaken me?" , and emphasize that you are not unseen.  The chorus invites us to praise through our fears. "I will thank you," because we trust the promise that our God judges...
