News: Tribute to Eric Arubayi

Image
Growing up in the Choir was a beautiful experience for me. Singing glorious songs and being used by God to lead people to worship always brought joy to my heart. I loved using the voice the Almighty gave me mostly for Him alone. This makes me understand perfectly how the late singer felt as he worshipped (with reckless abandon) the Lord with the beautiful voice given to him. I had no idea there would be some sort of attachment to him while he was in the West African Idols contest back then. I just knew there was something about him that would minister to many.... Many. Hearing that the great singer passed, not only makes the human me sad, but it makes the inhuman me excited because; 1. Not only is he with the Father, he's taken his place with the angels singing with the voice he was given and with the zeal and passion he had while on earth. 2. If you would ask me, I think he died empty. I mean, do you know how many lives he touched with his seemingly short stay here w...

This is one of the little things ministers experience in the gospel music industry. The release of "Faithful God" by Sammy Sax as an original song is a typical example of what these ministers go through. It could have been an error or a mistake surely he did not know that it had been released earlier by Gospel Force. It was a little mistake which was corrected immediately he found out, he did it in love. In his words on facebook, "DISCLAIMER Calvary greetings in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ This is to bring to the notice of the general public that the release of my version of "FAITHFUL GOD" was in total oblivion to the fact that the song is originally owned by Gospel Force...

Music: Holy is the Father - Ayobamidele

Image
This is a song that exalts the name of God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Ghost in a dispensation where it seems like the church is growing cold. "Holy is the Father" calls us back to the understanding of what is written in the book of 1 Peter 1:16 - ...for it is written: "Be ye holy, because I am holy". An intense worship led to the birth of this song in a gathering. This single is off his debut trending album, "It's your grace". Ayobamidele is a music minister, a song writer, a voice coach and a child of God. He was mentored and trained by minister Efe Nathan and Tosin bee, just to mention a few. Ayobamidele was formally the lead vocalist of the Nigerian Foremost Gospel Rock Band called “GFORCE” or the Gospel Force, He is being pastored by Pastor Gbenga and Pastor (Mrs.) Wuraola Tapere of RCCG The New House, Victoria Island, Lagos. He aims to share the gospel of JESUS CHRIST in words and song to the world, so all those who are bound c...
