Healer

Wow, I wasn’t going to post about this yet but I can’t stop thinking about this song.  I get up early to hang out with God and read some other blogs.  This morning, I was looking at Pete Wilsons blog withoutwax and saw this song.

As I watched it made me wonder who the worship leader was!  I was intrigued by the fact that he was wearing oxygen.  I know I am shallow I guess.  But as I researched I found this.

It is so powerful and gave insight to a lot of the questions I had about the song and the worship leader.  Please take time to watch them both and then think about the words, the story, and how it might impact your everyday!

Hosanna – Please Save Us

This song has been in our groups hart ever since camp.  The word I often find myself singing throughout the day.  Here’s some info on how the song came about!

Matthew 11:1-30

“John the Baptist, who was in prison, heard about all the things the Messiah was doing. So he sent his disciples to ask Jesus,  ‘Are you the Messiah we’ve been expecting, or should we keep looking for someone else?’” v. 2-3

As John sat in prison, he began to have some doubts about whether Jesus really was the Messiah.  If John purpose was to prepare people for the coming Messiah, and if Jesus really was that Messiah, then why was John in prison when he could be preaching to the crowds, preparing their hearts?

Jesus answered John’s doubts by pointing to the acts of healing the blind, lame, and deaf, curing the lepers, raising the dead, and preaching the Good News to the poor.  With so much evidence, Jesus’ identity was obvious.  If we sometimes doubt our salvation, the forgiveness of our sins, or God’s work in our life, look at the evidence in Scripture and the changes in our life.  When we doubt it is important not to turn away from Christ, but, to turn to Him!
