My son who was worked on by paramedics (who tried to revive him) and then taken to the hospital, had no heartbeat or breathing for over 90 minutes, He was given an official time of death by a Doctor. My wife and I nelt by his trolley, and simply asked for him to come back and live in the name of Jesus, and God breathed life into him and he was alive. That was 18 years ago. God does still do miracles, all we did was ask in the name of Jesus, with the faith God has graciously gifted us. Praise and thank you Jesus our Lord and our God.

@@slk8674 👋 Hi No we definitely don't take away from God's Holy scriptures. My understanding is that worship is one part of our communication with God. Jesus taught the disciples to pray commencing with worship, then moving onto other aspects of prayer & praise. Worship is for God alone but other aspects (giving thanks, asking forgiveness) are to God, but also to others. It is just worship that is to God alone. We are actually told to confess our sins to one another. The lesson I am getting out of this video is "Don't be deceived, mistaking other communication with God as worship when it is not. Worship God first & foremost then move to other things 🙏 ".

As far as this video, he’s seeding some things and leaving people (as seen in the comments) to become false witnesses against the Body of Christ and the way we seek after God. And I believe me bringing my “me stuff” to God is still worshiping God. I could bring it to secular radio, to the club, to my friends. But I bring it to Him and He loves that I keep coming back to Him with everything. This video is teaching partitions between us and our Heavenly Father in other areas of our lives. He deserves to be part of every single aspect of this human experience He’s given to me. Without ceasing. I believe your takeaway is from Godly wisdom that you’ve received through hard-fought seeking, and not this video.

Too Good to Not Believe is a song written so ppl will be reminded of the things that God's done in their lives. Have the song writers themselves seen cancer disappear? Seen bodies healed? Mental health restored? Real life resurrection? I don't know but I can tell you that I have and when I sing those words they mean something to me. They remind me of the goodness of God and they encourage others to seek God. I'm a very affectionate father towards my kids, something I didn't have growing up. My kids will just come and lay in my lap or lay in my arms just out of nowhere and for no reason and I'll hold them. I didn't have that growing up and to think that I have a Father that I can be that way with isn't "uncomfortable" or off-putting, it's wonderful. "Lean back in the loving arms of a beautiful father Breath deep and know that he is good, he's a love like no other" For the most part, the only thing I agreed with in this whole video was when you were reading from the word. And I'll agree with you that there are some very shaky "christian" songs when it comes to biblical foundation, but you didn't mention any of them here. I mean you quoted the bridge of Champion but neglected the God-centered chorus: "YOU are my Champion Giants fall when YOU stand undefeated, every battle YOU'VE won. I am who YOU say I am YOU crown me with confidence I am seated in the heavenly place Undefeated with the One who has conquered it all" See how the first half of the chorus sets up who God is and then who we are in him. Again, this is how we are reminded of WHO God is in our lives and then WHO we are in Him. Humans have a very short memory and no matter what God has does for us in our lives, we tend to forget that the next time something comes along that rattles us. That's why we write songs like these to say God is all these things. Because He is and because of what He's promised, we know that we are what He's said we are and we have what He's said we have. It's not man-centered. If my kid comes to me and says "daddy will you spend time me? I want to play with you." Is he being self-centered? "Dad I feel great when we play together!" Is that self-centeredness. When my kids say things like that to me, I feel elated. When my wife says to me, "I'm so glad I married you" I don't think of that as being a "she-centered" comment. I love it. When we say, "God, I love being in your presence. Your presence changes me. Your presence makes my calms my chaos. I need you. I want to spend more time with you." I don't think God says, "Jeez what a self-centered person they are". I think He loves it. I'm not trying to be confrontational here but I think you're missing it.

Authority comes from Christ. I believe this to be true that we can speak the goodness of God, we can speak God's word and when it aligns with the Father's will- miracles can and do happen! Our words create because we are not only made in the image of God, but, Christ himself tells us that he has given us authority to do works even greater. Check out the gospel of Mark. Science even proves this to be true- see the work of Masaru Emoto- The Hidden Messages in Water. I completely disagree with this guy's criticisms of this particular song and lyrics. Satan wants God's children to believe we have no authority as such we are weak and powerless- just where he wants us.

THE GOSPEL OF THE WORD OF ALMIGHTY GOD "is a great last day that He will save man" "Spreading the Gospel is also the work of the Salvation of Man". ... (In this last age My name will be taken to the Gentile nations. I will make everyone know that I Am not only the God of users, but also the God of the nations of the Gentiles, even My cursed: I will let all people see that I Am the God of entire creation. I have revealed to man all My mysteries that have been hidden over 5900 years. Who is Jehovah? Who is Messiah? Who is Jesus? Dear brothers and sister, what are you waiting for? Are you waiting for God to appear?) Almighty God said ALL PEOPLE are ASSOCIATED with a PURPOSE of My WORK on EARTH, that is, the ULTIMATE purpose of My WORK and what LEVEL I must ACHIEVE in this WORK BEFORE it CAN be COMPLETED. When they HAVE BEEN with Me to this DAY, PEOPLE STILL do not RELATE what My WORK is ABOUT, OTHERWISE YOU are MEANINGLESS for them to BE WITH ME? PEOPLE who FOLLOW Me CAN KNOW My WILL. 🙏 I HAVE been DOING My WORK in the WORLD for THOUSANDS of YEARS, and TO this DAY I Am STILL DOING My WORK for it. ALTHOUGH there are MANY EXTRAORDINARY things INCLUDED in My WORK, the PURPOSE of this WORK has not been ACCEPTED to CHANGE, just as an EXAMPLE even though I AM FULL of JUDGMENT and PUNISHMENT of MAN, I Am DOING for the SAKE of the BETTER CARRYING out My TRANSFORMATION and FURTHER EXPANDING My WORK to ALL the GENTILE NATIONS, when have ONE PERSON is FULLY made. So NOW, at a TIME when MANY PEOPLE have LONG BEEN GREATLY DISAPPOINTED in their HOPES that I Am STILL CONTINUING in My WORK, CONTINUING in My WORK that I MUST do JUDGE and PUNISH the MAN. ☀️ Despite the fact that man is not told what I say and despite the fact that he has no desire to devote Myself to My work, I Am still CARRYING out My DUTY, COMMUNICATING the PURPOSE of My UNFINISHED WORK that will change and My original plan will not be destroyed. The DUTY of My JUDGMENT WILL ENABLE the PERSON to be GOOD and FOLLOW Me, and the DUTY of My PUNISHMENT WILL ENABLE the PERSON to CHANGE more EFFECTIVELY. ☀️ Although I do what I do for the sake of My rule, I do not get a little thing that has become useless to man. That's because I WANTED to MAKE ALL the COUNTRIES OUTSIDE of ISRAEL as OBEDIENT as the USERS, and MAKE them REAL PEOPLE so that I COULD MAKE LANDS OUTSIDE ISRAEL. This is My GOVERNMENT, 'This is the WORK I DO in the GENTILE COUNTRIES. Even today, many people are still not associated with My rule, because they have no interest in these things, but only care about their own futures and destinies. NO MATTER WHAT I SAY, PEOPLE STILL DON'T CARE ABOUT the WORK I DO, INSTEAD of just, just FOCUSING on their END in this WAY, HOW to EXPAND My WORK in the FUTURE. HOW CAN I REPORT My REPORT to the WORLD? YOU SHOULD KNOW, that WHEN My WORK EXPANDS, I WILL SPREAD YOU, and I WILL DESTROY YOU, just as JEHOVAH DESTROYED a TRIBE of ISRAEL. ☀️ All this will be used for My use throughout the world, and SPREAD My WORK AMONG the GENTILE NATIONS, so that My NAME may BE GLORIFIED by BOTH OLD and CHILDREN, and My HOLY NAME be GLORIFIED by the MOUTHS of PEOPLE from ALL TRIBES and NATIONS. In this LAST AGE, My NAME WILL be TAKEN to the GENTILE NATIONS, cause the GENTILES to SEE My WORKS, that I use My PROMISE to the ALMIGHTY because of My WORKS, and MAKE IT My WORD may SOON COME TRUE. I WILL MAKE EVERYONE KNOW that I AM NOT ONLY the GOD of USERS, but ALSO the GOD of ALL the NATIONS of the GENTILES, even My CURSED: I WILL LET ALL PEOPLE SEE that I AM the GOD of ENTIRE CREATION. 🙏 This is My GREATEST WORK, the PURPOSE of My WORK PLAN for the LAST DAYS, and the ONLY WORK that must be FULFILLED in the LAST DAYS. 🙏 The WORK I have MANAGED for THOUSANDS of YEARS is PERFECTLY LIVING in ONLY ONE PERSON in the LAST DAYS. Just NOW I HAVE OPENED the ENTIRE MYSTERY of My MANAGEMENT to MAN. Man KNOWS the PURPOSE of My WORK and MOREOVER has UNDERSTOOD ALL My MYSTERIES. And I TOLD the man EVERYTHING about the FATE he was WORRIED ABOUT. I HAVE REVEALED to MAN ALL My MYSTERIES that HAVE BEEN HIDDEN OVER 5900 YEARS. ☀️ WHO is JEHOVAH? WHO is the MESSIAH? WHO is JESUS? YOU SHOULD KNOW ALL THIS. My Work REVOLVES AROUND these NAMES. 💫🙏 DO YOU UNDERSTAND THAT? HOW SHOULD My HOLY NAME be PROCLAIMED? HOW SHOULD My NAME be MADE of ANY of the NATIONS that CALL ME by ANY of My NAMES? My work is expanding and I will spread its entirety to any and all nations. Because My WORK has BEEN DONE on YOU, I WILL DESTROY you 6000 YEARS of GOD'S GOVERNMENT PLAN is NEAR the END, and the GATE of the KINGDOM has BEEN OPENED for ALL THOSE WHO SEEK His REVENUE. 🙏😪 Dear BROTHERS and SISTERS, what are you waiting for? WHAT are YOU LOOKING FOR? ARE YOU WAITING for GOD to APPEAR? ARE YOU LOOKING for His FOOTSTEPS? WHAT a LONGING for GOD'S REVELATION! And how difficult it is to find God's footsteps! In an age like today, in a world like this, what must we do to witness the day of God's revelation? What must we do to follow in God's footsteps? 🙏 From "The WORD Appears in the Flesh". holy book Fulfilled in "In the beginning He was the Word, the Word was with God, and the Word was God" (John 1:1). ... and "When I looked up, someone handed me a book wrapped in a scroll.

As someone who leads worship regularly at church, I really appreciate Allen’s emphasis on the necessity of the local church singing God-centered songs. Matt Redman talks about the importance of both songs that teach who God is as well as response songs. I think it’s healthy to start with songs that focus on teaching theology and then give people an opportunity to respond with songs of personal expressions of praise. The importance is having a balance; theologically weighty enough for people to learn who God is and what He’s done, but also personal enough that it’s not just head knowledge and people can worship God from the heart.

I have a problem with Mr Redman who quite happily joins himself with Bethel church and sings with them. Bethel's theology is all wrong and if the Apostle Paul were here today he might be quoting Galatians 1 to Mr Redman. I think there's a serious lack of discernment on Matt Redman's behalf.

This is very true... I am not a worship leader, but I am a worshipper... while I do believe the church as a whole does need to focus on worshipping Jesus alone, the Bible also says that David encouraged himself... how? He remembered the promises... someone in the comments said some songs aren't "congregational," which at first I thought was a valid point. HOWEVER, the church building is open to ALL people. Some don't have quiet time with the Lord... some are struggling when they walk into the sanctuary... they need encouragement and don't know how to do it themselves. So yes, while worship IS to Jesus, I believe the mature church should be doing this during the week in our quiet place... as worship leaders, I believe they are put on a platform to minister to the people, as unto God. The same as pastors, teachers, prophets, etc... their gifts are for the edification of the PEOPLE. Again, don't misunderstand what I am trying to say. I am by no means saying worship is for the people... please understand my heart. If the leaders do not show them HOW to worship, then how will they know? In my earlier years of struggling, so many times all it took was a song that expressed God's love for ME and how He sees ME that would cause me to break down and ultimately open my heart to the Lord... and THEN there came the grateful heart for all that He is, which lead to a heart of worship. So... again, I do agree there should be a balance; perhaps more leaning towards exclusive worship and some of promises and declarations... just my thoughts.

The main thing wrong with these wonderful songs was that they can't be copy righted, so nobody can make money off of them.

I pray that anyone who watches this video. Please for yourself, go and read the book of psalms. Many of these songs are 100% okay to sing and worship. The Lord absolutely wants you to lay in his arms, because we are his children and he is a good father. It is a beautiful thing to thank God and sing his praises and if your body was healed by cancer, or your business has seen increase because of the faithfulness you have shown by obeying God it is okay to turn your testimony into a song of worship that will inspire others! Half of the book of Psalms exemplifies this! Yes when I open my mouth, miracles do happen because I was made in God’s image and after his likeness and as Christian’s we DO have the power to heal others and have the faith that legs can walk, the blind can see and till this very day… seas can be split into two in order for generations to walk through it. Please everyone just read the Bible and ask yeshua to guide you through his Holy Spirit, don’t run to KZbin, run to God’s word💜✝️ .

I’ve seen healings and have been healed myself. As a Christian have you not? Definitely seen half of these things in my life. I’ve seen a lifetime smoking addiction healed in my friend. I’ve seen my own depression and insomnia and thus my own family healed by God miraculously. So “troubled souls redeemed and families reunited” , yes. My own cousin in Singapore was miraculously saved from a car accident - while crossing the road he was about to be hit by a car - and he was miraculously transported to the pathway - both him and the driver were astounded. A pastor I knew well in India - cast a demon out of a child who was possessed. When he demon left - it smashed the heavy metal gate outside the house and left a claw like mark on the door. As for cancer, there are many personal testimonies of cancer healed in word of faith churches - And it’s not just in deliverance ministry or word of faith churches. Plenty of people in Pentecostal churches and more open Baptist churches experience healing. It’s just that healing isn’t always for us and not necessarily for every believer. We have limited view of things in light of Gods greater purpose. So we accept that if healing doesn’t come - or is delayed- God has a higher reason for it. I lived through many years of depression first before God healed me - and that was for a very specific reason - so I would understand that everything the world has to offer won’t fix the problem and that he needed to teach me compassion for others - And that he is above all things and that I needed to truly understand him and rely on him. It finally healing came at the planet shakers conference - very much a Pentecostal setting that was the catalyst for god doing his miraculous work in my life - although it was all part of his plan :)

One evening at sunset she and her linguistic lady partner took an evening walk past the outskirts of the village. As the returned they encountered a very large group of people carrying stones, machetes, large sticks etc. The group opened up and passed through quietly greeting them. Years later as the people grew to trust and love them several people related that THEY, themselves, were with that large group AND HAD COME TO KILL THEM. My mother asked, "Well, WHY DIDN'T YOU? It was just Estersita and I." To which they replied with arms raised up on high, "OH, NO, Señora. We COULDN'T. There were two HUGE FAIR-HAIRED men walking with you!" "And He SHALL give His angels charge over thee to keep thee in ALL thy ways..." Ps 91 However, this is contingent upon us "DWELLING in the secret (sacred) place of the MOST high." - " "keeping our hearts and minds stayed on HIM." Also Psalm 1:1,2

Why was the name Yahuah taken out of the scriptures over 7000x? It’s simple- so that you wouldn’t know it. For “everyone who calls on the Name of יהוה shall be saved.” Romiyim (Romans) 10:13 ‘And it shall be that everyone who calls on the Name of יהוה shall be saved.’ Ma`asei (Acts) 2:21 Pour out Your wrath on the nations Who have not known You, And on reigns that have not called on Your Name. Tehillim (Psalms) 79:6 Help us, O Elohim of our deliverance, For the sake of the esteem of Your Name. And deliver us, and cover over our sins, For Your Name’s sake! Tehillim (Psalms) 79:9 I can keep posting scripture about how Important Yahuah and Yahusha Ha Mashiac name is. you see those who don’t call a this name is cursed, those who call there is salvation and deliverance and blessings. Name in Hebrew is shêm, shame; a primitive word [perhaps rather from H7760 through the idea of definite and conspicuous position; compare H8064]; an appellation, as a mark or memorial of individuality; by implication honor, authority, character:-+ base, (in-) fame(-ous), named(-d), renown, report. a name is a Mark, authority, and character of a person. The reason this is important because Yahuahs name encompasses his whole character through the scriptures. And a different name encompasses another character. Another Mark if you will. lord, god and jesus are not innocent translations. in TS 2009 ISR explanatory notes it explains making these changes transgresses the command not to bring Yahuahs name to naught, and not to add to the Word, and not to have another mighty one against Yahuahs face. -the name lord can be traced to the Roman house-diety , and further back to the name of an Etruscan sovereign, Larth. In antiquity sovereigns were -the name god developed from a Germanic god wodenaz-gudenaz-guden-god. -the name jesus can be traced to the diety of healing in Greek culture. iasous a female healing diety. look at the scripture below the Greeks likened there deity’s to the Hebrews when they saw the power at work. And when the crowds saw what Sha’ul had done, they lifted up their voices, saying in Lukaonian, “The mighty ones have become like men and come down to us!” And they called Barnaḇa Zeus, and Sha’ul Hermes, since he was the chief speaker. And the priest of Zeus, being in front of their city, brought oxen and wreaths to the gates, and wished to offer with the crowds. And when the emissaries Barnaḇa and Sha’ul heard this, they tore their garments and ran in among the crowd, crying out Ma`asei (Acts) 14:11-14 I pray this information helps you as you seek the truth and continue to research these matters.

When I hear the words "When I open up my mouth, miracles start breaking out". The first thing I think of is that I am never witnessing in my own power, and when I lay hands on somebody, it is not in my own power. I am simply following Jesus and making myself available for Him to work through me. If a person is to get saved by accepting Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior, that is a miracle, but it was not in my power, I just made myself available for Jesus to use me where for what he wants to accomplish. Whether it is just showing somebody the Love of Jesus, witnessing, teaching, or calling for healing (spiritual, or physical) it has nothing to do with me and everything to do with God. I don't even want anybody to thank me for anything that Jesus does, I just want to follow what my Lord has commanded of me. To go out into the world spreading the Good News. Matthew 28:19-20 / Acts 13:47 / John 20:21 / Matthew 10:8 So when I hear "When I open up my mouth, miracles start breaking out" is often seen, but not in my power and I want no credit. It is my way of showing Jesus that He is my Lord, by following what he says to do. How can we prove we love Jesus, trust in Him, believe in Him, have faith in Him? By obeying Him. If the writers of the song were trying to get me to follow a false teaching, then it will not work with that verse on me, because I understand it to mean that when I obey Jesus miracles can happen. When we as a nation call Jesus our Lord, then we can receive His blessings and miracles will happen. It is a little concerning that you are uncomfortable with asking to be closer with Jesus. I do not hear them saying "Jesus is my boyfriend". Those are your words and thoughts when you hear those words, but those are not the words they say in the song. To be closer with Him and to spend time with Him should be desired. To claim and tell others that you fear this kind of talk is a bit concerning. It appears as though you are looking through the lens of this world, instead of seeing it through the eyes of God. The more time we spend with somebody and the closer we are to them, then we will see their heart better and who they truly are. If you want to know God's heart better, then spend more time with Him and seek a closer relationship. Don't try and perverse these things in your mind (or put those thoughts into new Christians minds).

Sometimes in expressing how YOU feel towards someone helps you recognize all the reasons why you love that person.... so if God makes me feel safe, loved, seen... then it helps me recognize how beautiful He is, how merciful and faithful and giving He is... and from a full heart I give him praises and I worship Him with singing AND in my daily walk... remember, worship isn't just about singing...

I believe in miracles. I have seen many miracles in my lifetime. My daughter was healed by the Lord 20 years ago from glaucoma. My mother, at 45 years old she was very ill, her heart was too big. The doctors told us that she only had 3 or 6 months to live. My mother answered that only my father in heaven knows when is my time to go home. I will live all the years that the Lord has for me. When my mother passed away, she was 80 years old. She was a great-grandmother of 6.

I hardly believe if you are a christian you'd be listening to heavy metal for example because it obviously is not God inspired. The mistake that many make however which is what Allen is alluding to is that one has to discern. Just because the music sounds good and the lyrics might be catchy doesn't mean it is inspired music.

When I ask for a Miracle in Jesus name I’m not saying “God, you have to honor that now!” I’m saying that if God wills a miracle, I’m all for God doing His wil.

My take is that the defining issue is whether we're talking about personally receiving ( i.e., " my shepherd"), as opposed to " I feel this way". The first is biblically true ( a product of God's statements, the second is the expression of a human opinion. The first is always sound, the second will change ( and even reverse )- not sound to teach in a song.

That song is also "man-centered" because it's about him coming back...but it's not a real "worship" song. It's a testimony in music. I think we need to be able to tell the difference and that not all music or song lyrics sung in worship are actual "worship songs" and that's ok because your testimonies are also in spirit and truth. I do not believe that praise and worship needs to be all one way. People putting out how Jesus makes them feel IS praising Him for it. Just because we tell a story, doesn't make it unworthy of being called worship or praise. Granted, some stuff IS questionable, but some is not. You have to see the perspective and meaning behind the song.

Hey Allen, great video as always. But I do have to share a testimony of the song "too good to not believe". When I was at my lowest point, during much tribulation, Fall of 2021, that's when I grew the closest to God, and decided to start walking in faith and in the Spirit as I only had Jesus to hold on to at that point in my life. Nothing else. And I discovered that song and it helped me step out in faith, and pray for people, and see miracles take place in real life! Preaching on the mic and sharing my testimony on mic downtown Montreal, praying for people on the streets from Montreal to Toronto and then later on Dubai. Seeing demons cast out, and bodies healed. Even my body healed! I would say, for me there's nothing wrong with those lyrics at all. All of those things are possible through Jesus. (not here for any arguments for those in the comment). God bless you all!

Are people getting saved at Copland's services? Yes they are. Do we have any perfect pastors or teachers in any Church who never sin or make a mistake? Calling names and Judging hearts is something we are told never to do. Gossiping about someone behind their backs is as sinful as murder the Bible tells us. Even if a brother is wrong we should never speak cruel words against them or petition our hearts against them.

I am concerned for you as I do not think you see the danger and spiritual attacks you open yourself to when name calling others. It is not Gods character to do this and we are to try to be more like Jesus. If that brother is wrong the Bible tells us to go to them with love in our concerns and if they do not listen to bring another till they see it.

I love my Catholic friends but I am concerned for those who do not believe that they can pray directly to God because Jesus is alive in us. Praying to dead people and worshiping idols and worshiping human beings like Mary before even worshiping Jesus are dangerous practices. Having some one else do our repenting for us and confessing to a human being and not God of our sins is dangerous. Thinking specific prayers or readings are required to be forgiven for our sins is unbiblical also. Confession keeps us from repenting to God ourselves and prevents us from being humbled before God. I am not here to judge anyone who loves Jesus or otherwise. Only God can judge hearts. The most of these is love and Matthew 22 34 to 40 shows us what that is all about.

But most importantly does it align with God's Word, who He is to me or who I am in Him. 1 I am Thine, O Lord, I have heard Thy voice, And it told Thy love to me; But I long to rise in the arms of faith, And be closer drawn to Thee. Refrain: Draw me nearer, nearer, nearer, blessed Lord, To the cross where Thou hast died; Draw me nearer, nearer, nearer, blessed Lord, To Thy precious, bleeding side. 2 Consecrate me now to Thy service, Lord, By the pow’r of grace divine; Let my soul look up with a steadfast hope, And my will be lost in Thine. [Refrain] 3 Oh, the pure delight of a single hour That before Thy throne I spend, When I kneel in prayer, and with Thee, my God, I commune as friend with friend! [Refrain] 4 There are depths of love that I cannot know Till I cross the narrow sea; There are heights of joy that I may not reach Till I rest in peace with Thee.

It's like if I pick one line from your sermon, I will miss the bigger picture. it's good to analyze everything with the word of GOD, and that includes your sermon as well, like the way the Bereans were doing.

I first heard the phrase "Jesus is my boyfriend" music about 25 years ago. It instantly clarified why some songs grieved my spirit back then and opened my eyes to see which songs were man-centered and which were God-centered. What's sad is 25 some years later, it's worse now than back then, and still people hardly recognize the issue. Thanks for bringing this up with clarity. Make sure to give examples of some great god-centered songs to compare with the others.

Personally, I don't see any issue with songs from Hillsong, Bethel, Elevation Worship .... Too good to not believe is one song that calls for a strong level of faith as one believes for God to do things. God is still doing miracles. People have testimonies. People have seen strange things happen. God's power manifests all the time. All we need is to create that relationship with Him for things to be personal. Some people will keep on doubting whether the healing testimonies people have really happened until they encounter God personally. Faith pleases God and it doesn't really matter whether these people have seen what they are singing about, what matters is their faith that God can do it. Yes, don't tell me He can't do it. Each time I worship in that song "Too good to not believe", my faith levels go up because I know I believe in a God who never fails. There is power in the words we say, how about in the words we sing? With all that said, allow me to appreciate you for your opinions. I know there are gospel songs that don't really draw us closer to God and have hidden agendas but allow me disagree to your choice of songs in this video most especially the first two mentioned....

Some of the man-centered songs are great for personal worship in our own devotional time, but not necessarily right for corporate worship. Those songs often mean something personally to you so it’s effective in that setting. But I agree that when we are leading a congregation in worship its important to mainly focus on God-centered songs. Thanks for your insight. This is another confirmation of what I’ve felt being led to do in ministry.

I think for a lot of this context is key. All he really said for “Too good to not believe.” Was that a church that had some false doctrine made it. There is no such thing as a perfect church, we are all trying our best to do what God wants but there is disagreement over it, we are human after all, we are not infallible. Thats why there is such division. As for Champion it did say 2 lines earlier that it was through Jesus that we had the authority, that the miracles are from Christ. Context is key.

Champion is absolutely about proclaiming! Many believers don't fully understand the authority that we have in Christ. We have a mission also to tell them, exhort them, to speak life? "The Spirit of the Lord God is upon me; because the Lord hath anointed me to preach good tidings unto the meek; he hath sent me to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives, and the opening of the prison to them that are bound..." When I lift my voice and shout, every wall comes crashing down.....When I open up my mouth, miracles start breaking out...I have the authority, Jesus has given me Of course I believe it! John 14:12 KJV Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do; because I go unto my Father. Proverbs 18:21 KJV Death and life are in the power of the tongue... Luke 9:1-2 KJV Then he called his twelve disciples together, and gave them power and authority over all devils, and to cure diseases. And he sent them to preach the kingdom of God, and to heal the sick. Luke 10:19 KJV Behold, I give unto you power to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy: and nothing shall by any means hurt you.

(In this last age My name will be taken to the Gentile nations. I will make everyone know that I Am not only the God of users, but also the God of the nations of the Gentiles, even My cursed: I will let all people see that I Am the God of entire creation. I have revealed to man all My mysteries that have been hidden over 5900 years. Who is Jehovah? Who is Messiah? Who is Jesus? Dear brothers and sister, what are you waiting for? Are you waiting for God to appear?) Almighty God said ALL PEOPLE are ASSOCIATED with a PURPOSE of My WORK on EARTH, that is, the ULTIMATE purpose of My WORK and what LEVEL I must ACHIEVE in this WORK BEFORE it CAN be COMPLETED. When they HAVE BEEN with Me to this DAY, PEOPLE STILL do not RELATE what My WORK is ABOUT, OTHERWISE YOU are MEANINGLESS for them to BE WITH ME? PEOPLE who FOLLOW Me CAN KNOW My WILL. 🙏 I HAVE been DOING My WORK in the WORLD for THOUSANDS of YEARS, and TO this DAY I Am STILL DOING My WORK for it. ALTHOUGH there are MANY EXTRAORDINARY things INCLUDED in My WORK, the PURPOSE of this WORK has not been ACCEPTED to CHANGE, just as an EXAMPLE even though I AM FULL of JUDGMENT and PUNISHMENT of MAN, I Am DOING for the SAKE of the BETTER CARRYING out My TRANSFORMATION and FURTHER EXPANDING My WORK to ALL the GENTILE NATIONS, when have ONE PERSON is FULLY made. So NOW, at a TIME when MANY PEOPLE have LONG BEEN GREATLY DISAPPOINTED in their HOPES that I Am STILL CONTINUING in My WORK, CONTINUING in My WORK that I MUST do JUDGE and PUNISH the MAN. ☀️ Despite the fact that man is not told what I say and despite the fact that he has no desire to devote Myself to My work, I Am still CARRYING out My DUTY, COMMUNICATING the PURPOSE of My UNFINISHED WORK that will change and My original plan will not be destroyed. The DUTY of My JUDGMENT WILL ENABLE the PERSON to be GOOD and FOLLOW Me, and the DUTY of My PUNISHMENT WILL ENABLE the PERSON to CHANGE more EFFECTIVELY. ☀️ Although I do what I do for the sake of My rule, I do not get a little thing that has become useless to man. That's because I WANTED to MAKE ALL the COUNTRIES OUTSIDE of ISRAEL as OBEDIENT as the USERS, and MAKE them REAL PEOPLE so that I COULD MAKE LANDS OUTSIDE ISRAEL. This is My GOVERNMENT, 'This is the WORK I DO in the GENTILE COUNTRIES. Even today, many people are still not associated with My rule, because they have no interest in these things, but only care about their own futures and destinies. NO MATTER WHAT I SAY, PEOPLE STILL DON'T CARE ABOUT the WORK I DO, INSTEAD of just, just FOCUSING on their END in this WAY, HOW to EXPAND My WORK in the FUTURE. HOW CAN I REPORT My REPORT to the WORLD? YOU SHOULD KNOW, that WHEN My WORK EXPANDS, I WILL SPREAD YOU, and I WILL DESTROY YOU, just as JEHOVAH DESTROYED a TRIBE of ISRAEL. ☀️ All this will be used for My use throughout the world, and SPREAD My WORK AMONG the GENTILE NATIONS, so that My NAME may BE GLORIFIED by BOTH OLD and CHILDREN, and My HOLY NAME be GLORIFIED by the MOUTHS of PEOPLE from ALL TRIBES and NATIONS. In this LAST AGE, My NAME WILL be TAKEN to the GENTILE NATIONS, cause the GENTILES to SEE My WORKS, that I use My PROMISE to the ALMIGHTY because of My WORKS, and MAKE IT My WORD may SOON COME TRUE. I WILL MAKE EVERYONE KNOW that I AM NOT ONLY the GOD of USERS, but ALSO the GOD of ALL the NATIONS of the GENTILES, even My CURSED: I WILL LET ALL PEOPLE SEE that I AM the GOD of ENTIRE CREATION. 🙏 This is My GREATEST WORK, the PURPOSE of My WORK PLAN for the LAST DAYS, and the ONLY WORK that must be FULFILLED in the LAST DAYS. 🙏 The WORK I have MANAGED for THOUSANDS of YEARS is PERFECTLY LIVING in ONLY ONE PERSON in the LAST DAYS. Just NOW I HAVE OPENED the ENTIRE MYSTERY of My MANAGEMENT to MAN. Man KNOWS the PURPOSE of My WORK and MOREOVER has UNDERSTOOD ALL My MYSTERIES. And I TOLD the man EVERYTHING about the FATE he was WORRIED ABOUT. I HAVE REVEALED to MAN ALL My MYSTERIES that HAVE BEEN HIDDEN OVER 5900 YEARS. ☀️ WHO is JEHOVAH? WHO is the MESSIAH? WHO is JESUS? YOU SHOULD KNOW ALL THIS. My Work REVOLVES AROUND these NAMES. 💫🙏 DO YOU UNDERSTAND THAT? HOW SHOULD My HOLY NAME be PROCLAIMED? HOW SHOULD My NAME be MADE of ANY of the NATIONS that CALL ME by ANY of My NAMES? My work is expanding and I will spread its entirety to any and all nations. Because My WORK has BEEN DONE on YOU, I WILL DESTROY you 6000 YEARS of GOD'S GOVERNMENT PLAN is NEAR the END, and the GATE of the KINGDOM has BEEN OPENED for ALL THOSE WHO SEEK His REVENUE. 🙏😪 Dear BROTHERS and SISTERS, what are you waiting for? WHAT are YOU LOOKING FOR? ARE YOU WAITING for GOD to APPEAR? ARE YOU LOOKING for His FOOTSTEPS? WHAT a LONGING for GOD'S REVELATION! And how difficult it is to find God's footsteps!

I think that a lot of points were brought up that were great. However when it comes to worship songs and saying "I love you lord, thank you for what you are doing in my life, ive seen your goodness and I want to know you more and more' is giving God the praise. It is you showing your heart to the lord, acknowledging that he is the lord of your life. At 15:40 you kind of did the same thing you were speaking against a little bit which was a little confusing to me. But Yes I also think we need to make sure we are also saying "you are good God, thank you Jesus, Im sorry for my sin, You are righteous" But singing to god that you want to be closer to him- there's nothing wrong with that. Jesus refers to us being the bride and he is the groom which would be an intimate relationship with him. Psalms is a great example. David is constantly saying lord save me, lord I need you, lord you have delivered me, I repent of my sin, deliver me from evil and keep me close to you and point out my sin. he also says God is righteous, God is good, the lord is just. There is a mix in the Bible. While yes sometimes I think there is maybe too much of what the lord has done for me music-We should be praising God for what he as done. We should be singing about the ways hes moved in our lives. We should be confessing our mistakes to Him. there's nothing wrong with it in general as long as it is a proper mix of using personal statements and less personal statements such as "God is good and righteous" and has a heart of praising the lord.
