Heh...this may be sacrilegious in some circles, but the underlying thoughts of the video-maker in pairing the imagery of Yeshua's work on earth with the heart lyrics of Anne Murray's song truly deserve credit.

With passion for the cause of Israel for her desirable right to exist.

Link Title is 'controversial' but nontheless worthy of examination against the objective reading and understanding of Scripture, with precise exercise of godly wisdom in discerning the truth behind this message.

In a way, I always caution myself over my seeming critical ways, with the word of this song by Michael Card. A song for the encouragement of the downcast, downtrodden souls in the struggle of life. From the album "Poiema"

An urging towards departing from being enslaved to the worldly ways of the present lives of many in the world, to find freedom in the Lord of all. From Michael Card's album "Poiema"

The call to serve the Lord in community poignantly echoed in this song by Michael Card. From the album "Poiema"

Another of Michael Card's wonderfully written and rendered songs. From his album "Starkindler"

One of my favourite songs by Michael Card. From his album "Poiema"

Heard this song played in a Messianic praise style, and realised that indeed it was written by Messianic songwriters. This video presentation is a segment featured on one of Bill Gaither's recordings. Inspired from Isaiah 55:12, concerning the joy of all creation in celebrating the returning of the King !

Another truly wonderful song that renders the truth from Isaiah to Revelation - that our Messiah's return to reign on earth from Jerusalem !

Absolutely sickened by the perpetual foolishness exhibited by the celebrative mood during year-to-year transitions that we call the 'New Year'. The difference remains at the tick of the clock and there is so much spiritualizing about the entire experience.  One should know better to come to reality - it's just another day, after all.  No one is immune from the ills of the past simply by welcoming a 'new' year.  The one and only way out is to repent of them, altogether.

Came across the quoted topic, to be covered in an upcoming conference in February next year.   http://www.sksbooks.com/pages/EL_SHADDAI_CONFERENCE_200 http://www.christianbook.com/Christian/Books/product?item_no=36675&event=1010SBF%7C1156301%7C1010   Poignantly brings to mind the prevailing pattern of much of our ways of worship nowadays - the sadness within our inner persons, and then repressing them whenever we gather in the throngs of our corporate worship, for the apparent sake of abiding in an attitude of lifting one another's burdens by the mere token of words and speech.  Perhaps we may all too easily provide for the excuse of priviledge of privacy in excluding such pertinent influences of our faith, especially in times of trouble, from our corporate worship.    But doing so is implicitly tantamount to relegating our faith to a rewards-based value system (meritocracy) revolved around imagined blessings and curses in the light of cir...

A continuation of the flow of blessing through the ministry of musical worship led by Paul Wilbur, with the call towards consecrating the Church in holiness and in faithful obedience as she comes into the presence of the Lord 'I Am'.

A song and a call to all watchmen who will watch over Israel, to the words written in the book of the prophet Isaiah, the sixty-second chapter: " 6 I have set watchmen on your walls, O Jerusalem; They shall never hold their peace day or night. You who make mention of the LORD, do not keep silent, 7 And give Him no rest till He establishes And till He makes Jerusalem a praise in the earth. " " 10 Go through, Go through the gates! Prepare the way for the people; Build up, Build up the highway! Take out the stones, Lift up a banner for the peoples! 11 Indeed the LORD has proclaimed To the end of the world: “ Say to the daughter of Zion, ‘ Surely your salvation is coming; Behold, His reward is with Him, And His work before Him.’”

Reverent rendering of the scene depicted in the book of Revelation, in chapter four, in which the four living creatures declare without end the words: "Holy, holy, holy, Lord God Almighty, Who was and is and is to come!”

To the words of Psalm 133:1: "Behold, how good and how pleasant it is for brethren to dwell together in unity !" For the desire for the unity of the brethren in Yeshua, of Israel (Jew) and the Church (Gentile)

Sung by Paul Wilbur, in the spirit of the psalter, and that of John the Baptist, a voice of one calling out in the desert, to all who will make a way for the Lord of Heaven and Earth.

Sung by Paul Wilbur.

A powerful rendering of the wandering soul's cry towards Adonai, in seeking His rest and the peace that comes with it.

Sung by Paul Wilbur. Urging towards the drawing together of the saints amongst the Jews and the Gentiles, who together long for the New Jerusalem. A call to the Church towards its proper identity in its shared inheritance in God with that of Israel, and a call to all Israel to return to be grafted as the natural shoots of the True Vine that is Yeshua Ha-Mashiach. A refrain to the call as mentioned in Revelation 22 wherein: "the Spirit and the Bride say "Come !" " with reference to Christ the King and His bride the Church - to which the rest of creation hears the call.
