Today, we will be discussing how music can be a form of prayer and worship. I share my thoughts on this and how an old hymnal helped get me through one of the worst times in my life. Music and what we listen to, sing a long to, truly does affect us. Music is a powerful form of worship.
I pray this blessed you in Jesus name! 🙏🏼

Hello friends!! A little back story on these devotions.
I’m an avid thrifter and I love old books. One day while out, God placed an old book in my path. I had no idea how this little book would completely take me to a new place in God and with my life.
I shared the book with my YouTube family and they ask me to share readings from it with them. God began to stir in me about doing just that. After a bit of conflict from some on my main channel, (they didn’t like the “devotionals”), I called out to my prayer warrior friends. After much prayer, I started a completely new channel devoted to all things God!!
I read a “conversation/ prayer” from this book God put in my path and He gives me the words and interpretation.
So what is the book? It’s an older book copyright in 1968. The title is “I’ve got to talk to somebody, God” a woman’s conversations with God by Marjorie Holmes.
I pray over each reading and God shows which one to read.
I truly hope each one blesses you!
