ARTICLE: “What Kind of Songs are You Filling Your Spirit With”? by Pastor Wale Adenuga | @adenuga_wale | THE SONG OF THE LORD One main problem I had when I gave my life to Christ in 1988 as a student in the University of Ife was music.

THE SONG OF THE LORD

One main problem I had when I gave my life to Christ in 1988 as a student in the University of Ife was music. Music was the stronghold in my life. I’d been stuffed with listening to MJ, Kool & the Gang, Dynasty and the rest. Now I’m a christian, I was depressed by the music available in the kingdom then.

I actually told God one day on one of my walks that He had to do better than what I was hearing then. Yeah.

Shortly afterwards, I started to attend Christ Love Fellowship. And music was great there. And of course, that’s where music ministry started for me.

What I realised afterwards was that everyday I woke up with a song. I’d be walking down the road and songs of worship would fill my heart. And since those days in the late 80s till now, I’ve almost always woken up with a song. Practically everyday.

These songs even have the capacity to be prophetic in nature. I remember 2 years ago, I woke up with Bob Fitts’ song – HE WILL COME AND SAVE YOU. That day, He did save me and others on a flight between London and Newark as our plane developed a fault mid air and we had to land in Shannon, Ireland. When the pilot announced that there was a problem, I was at peace because of that song that came through a few hours earlier.

It’s easier to have these overflowing songs in your heart if you have filled your ear gates with them in the first place.

Question of the day: what kind of songs are you filling your spirit with?
