Nina Grace's "Overcome": A Song of Faith and Victory


Nina Grace's song "Overcome" is inspired by Exodus 14 and 15. The scripture recalls how Moses led the Israelites across the Red Sea. You can imagine their initial fear as they were trapped between the Egyptians and sea. A fear that rapidly changed when they witnessed how the Lord delivered them by parting the Red Sea. After this experience, they declared, "The Lord is my salvation!" 

Nina Grace - OvercomeWhat was true in the days of Moses remains true today. God is always faithful, even when our own faith wavers. When you realize that God is already present, waiting for you, this turns into a call for us to come into action. Just like Nina sings, we need to hold onto God during our broken moments. That's when His promises will renew us. The lyrics encourage us to stand strong and fearlessly proclaim that God is our salvation. 

Nina's lyrics repeatedly remind us of His faithfulness: "When my faith is shaken, I'll hold fast to you" and "Lord, you've been so faithful." The chorus triumphantly declares, "I will not fear, for the Lord is my salvation."  

"Overcome" is a great reminder for everyone who is struggling with doubts and encourages a steadfast faith in God's unfailing love and victory. May this song help you to surrender your doubts to Him, grow your faith in Him, and declare that He is Lord and reigns forever.

(Related scripture: Exodus chapters 14 and 15; Isaiah 41:10; 2 Timothy 1:7; Romans 8:37)

"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...
