WHAT HAPPENED TO THE GOSPEL MUSIC/SONGS?

What happened to the Natural, unadulterated, Fresh gospel music/songs that used to be (at least specifically and particularly in the East African Region where I come from; Kenya, Tanzania, Uganda, Rwanda etc.)?

This idea of Gospel musicians with their Lips “Red-lipsticked”, where did it come from?

This idea of Gospel musicians with “Bling Bling”, where did it come from?

Where is the distinction of the Gospel Music from the Music of the World?

Even amongst those who sang and produced some very Powerful Gospel music/songs in 1990s, early 2000s (somewhere around 2000-2006 etc) etc, of late if they produce a Gospel music/song you find some of them all over a sudden “Red-lipsticked” as they sing in the videos OR their skin is bleached so that they appear “yellow yellow”. Who said the anointing in the Gospel Music/song so as to touch the listeners/viewers has got to do with being “Yellow Yellow” or “Red-Lipsticked” or “Bling Bling”?

In this day and age (in the last decade; particularly from 2010 onwards), it is very rare to find a Truly inspiring Gospel Music/Song being sung (produced), at least specifically and particularly in the region mentioned above.

Yes, it’s the age of You Tube, Ultra HD & 4K, but shouldn’t there be a more presentable way of maintaining the Respectable and Godly mannerism in Video appearance in Singing Gospel Music, without “Red-Lipsticks”, “bleaching to Yellow Yellow” and the “Bling Blings” etc.?

Please, Take us back to The Original Gospel songs/music; The Gospel with a deep-rooted Message of The LORD.

Please, Take us back to The Primitive Gospel music/songs, that was not sugar-coated or adulterated with “Yellow Yellow bleaching”, “Red-Lipsticked”, “Bling Bling” etc.

Please, Take us back to The Gospel music/songs of/from the heart, and stop this “Gospel” songs/music of the Flesh on display.

Please, Take us back to The Gospel music/songs of The Spirit (Holy Spirit-filled), and stop this “Gospel” songs/music of “noise” and showbiz.

Please, Take us back to the days when Gospel music/songs was/were really Gospel Music/songs.

We Love Gospel Music/Songs, We Love to Sing unto The LORD, Just Take us back to the Original, unadulterated, Natural, Fresh and Primitive (Basic Foundational) Gospel songs/music that was Holy Spirit-filled, Heart-centered, Heavenly-centered, Christ-centered, Presented in a Godly manner (Video or no video).

Let us Return to The True Gospel Music/Songs, that we may Worship The LORD and Praise The LORD in Truth and in Spirit, in Reverence and in Holiness, in Respect and in Honour of The LORD.

SHALOM!!!

Psalm 29: 1-2 ‘“Give unto The LORD, O you mighty ones, Give unto The LORD glory and strength. Give unto The LORD the glory due to His name; Worship The LORD in the beauty of holiness.”’

Psalm 66: 1-4 ‘“Make a joyful shout to God, all the earth! Sing out the honor of His name; Make His praise glorious. Say to God, “How awesome are Your works! Through the greatness of Your power Your enemies shall submit themselves to You. All the earth shall worship You And sing praises to You; They shall sing praises to Your name.”’

Psalm 96: 1-7 ‘“Oh, sing to The LORD a new song! Sing to The LORD, all the earth. Sing to The LORD, bless His name; Proclaim the good news of His salvation from day to day. Declare His glory among the nations, His wonders among all peoples. For The LORD is great and greatly to be praised; He is to be feared above all gods. For all the gods of the peoples are idols, But The LORD made the heavens. Honor and majesty are before Him; Strength and beauty are in His sanctuary. Give to The LORD, O families of the peoples, Give to The LORD glory and strength.”’

Malachi 2:17 ‘“You have wearied The LORD with your words; Yet you say, “In what way have we wearied Him?” In that you say, “Everyone who does evil Is good in the sight of The LORD, And He delights in them,” Or, “Where is the God of justice?”’

PREPARE THE WAY OF THE LORD. JESUS CHRIST (THE MESSIAH) IS COMING TO PICK HIS REPENTANT, HOLY, RIGHTEOUS, WISE AND FAITHFUL SONS AND DAUGHTERS (THE BRIDE OF CHRIST).

HAVE YOU ACCEPTED AND RECEIVED THE LORD JESUS CHRIST AS YOUR LORD, MASTER AND SAVIOUR?

REPENTANCE PRAYER:

Precious Jesus,

I acknowledge today that you are LORD and Savior of all mankind,

and today I have recognized my shortfall,

I Repent and turn away from all Sin

Please cover me with your Precious Blood,

and establish your Word in my life,

that I may be found in Righteousness and Holiness

and write my name in your Book of Life

and Baptize me with the Power of The Holy Spirit

in The Mighty Name of Jesus Christ

AMEN.


Your Brother in Christ Jesus, and a Shepherd of The LORD,

  2. Though I'm not from your area, I was wondering the same thing. It is a daily burden I have to deal with. Every time I listen to "Gospel songs" (including from East Africa) I'm very troubled at heart whether it is of God or the devil. The devil has very many agents singing "Gospel songs" so as to give folks a false sense of closeness to God and to initiate them into his kingdom.
    Do you know any Christ's singers around the world? Please list them if you do. That will be greatly appreciated. It doesn't matter the language, continent, region, country etc. Thanks.
