ELIJAH LEVEL, A WA NSARE JU FERRARI LO ( Like Elijah, we run faster than Ferrari car)
I heard this song some few days ago and I am really trying hard to understand how it got itself into our praise list in Christian gathering. I know there abounds several of this kind of songs here and there and all they do is to just appeal to our emotions and fancy.
My wife often categorise such songs as “strange songs in Zion” and I will simply reply her “ it is because you don’t live on their own street in Zion.
As worship leaders, we must prayerfully lead people in songs that draws the heart of God towards our fellowshipping. Songs that makes the presence of God evident in our gathering. It is first a lifestyle before it can become an act. Living our life solely to please the Master must be the key here.
Lastly, leading worship is purely about Jesus Christ alone and not about any of us worshiping him. Like Dunsin Oyekan said in one of his song “Benediction” the reward of my worship is “Jesus”.
Enjoy your day and remember to alway worship Him in Spirit and in Truth.
