It's Here!!!

I can't remember that last time I had so much anticipation for a album release. Matt Redman's new 10,000 Reasons project was FINALLY released in the US yesterday! Yes, I got it immediately. But being away from my home computer and unable to ipod sync I just now had a chance to listen.
I've been following and loving Matt's Redman's music since his first US release, The Heart of Worship, back in 1999. This latest release is quintessential Matt: well-crafted and timeless songs recorded in a well-produced live worship setting. I happened to be greatly blessed to attend the conference at which it was recorded back in February in Atlanta, and have been eagerly awaiting the arrival of the release ever since.
Every song is a fantastic, so it's really hard for me to pick a few favorites. If I was forced to do so it would probably be the opening anthem "We Are the Free." I will definitely be leading this one next time I lead worship at our church. It's a powerful song of proclamation. "Holy" is another great one. I remember being gripped by the sound of this song at the conference as a hall filled with worshipers sang out the chorus - I remember thinking that this is what heaven will be like.
"Never Once" is a moving song of that proclaims God's faithful, the chorus resounding with the truth "Never once did we ever walk alone. Never once did you leave us on our own. You are faithful. God, you are faithful."
And then there is "Magnificent." The song just compels me to worship. And of course I feel the same way about "Endless Hallelujah."
OK. So they are all great, like I said. Just go get it now!

On Earth As in Heaven
Worship and Prayer are two sides of the same coin.
"The four living creatures and the twenty-four elders fell down before the Lamb. Each one had a harp and they were holding golden bowls full of incense, which are the prayers of the saints."
(Revelation 5:8 )
The Harp represents the songs of worship that go on in heaven around the throne of God; day and night it never stops.
The Bowls are full of the prayers of the saints, rising as incense before the throne of God.
It is the harp and the bowl together that give us a picture of the ongoing encounter with God that goes on in heaven.
Let it be on earth as it is in heaven.
