This jubilant, assertive song by Sinach was offered by my old friend, Osoba Aire. I think of him as a younger cousin because our families were neighbors in Jos. I’m grateful for this suggestion because I had never heard of Sinach, an incredible Nigerian gospel singer who has obviously been influenced by African American gospel.
This song reminds me to declare and walk in my position as a child of God. There is no need to hide my light under a lamp. I love the fact that this song prods is to be confident, that we have everything we need to succeed. If God says I am fully equipped–and favored–to take on all obstacles, I should believe it. I’m inspired for the day. Sinach sings that we are “a chosen generation,” which is true! But I also believe that every generation before ours is a chosen generation too (including my ancestors who never heard the gospel). They are a chosen generation too and had access to this big God I believe in and depend on.
Luke 2:5 Has God not chosen the poor of this world to be rich in faith and heirs of the kingdom which he promised to those who love him.
