Bethany Thompson's 'All We Want': A Glorious Anthem of Faith


Bethany Thompson's second single, 'All We Want,' comes from a prayer, and reminds us of God's immense power and presence. This song is so fitting for this Christmas day, as it sends a message of hope. Hope has a name, a name so powerful that demons tremble at His name… the name of our King - Jesus. 

Bethany Thompson - All We WantThe lyrics lead our hearts and focus back to the source of the ultimate gift to mankind, our Prince of Peace and Almighty King. All of creation bows in awe of His grace. His glory surrounds us, and in His presence we are healed and changed. The chorus reverently repeats, "All we want is You," declaring what hopefully is also your deepest desire, for God's presence in your life. He is the Hope that is ready to be part of your life if you just open your heart and invite Him in. 

The bridge is so beautiful and is filled with devotion, singing praise, and where every step is taken for Him. The lyrics echoe our commitment to live for Jesus by aligning our hearts and lives with His purpose. 

Bethany beautifully summarizes the true meaning of Christmas: seeking and finding our everything in our Lord and Savior - King Jesus. May this song also be your prayer and declaration and an encouragement to celebrate Him every day of your life.

(Related scripture: Psalm 96:9; Revelation 4:11; Philippians 3:8)

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.

"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...
