My Top 10 Hits – Week 368

Every Monday I post my all-new Top 10 Christian hit music chart based on personal preference and influenced by radio airplay from the previous week. It’s the continuation of a weekly hobby that goes back over 45 years. Here’s this week’s chart – for the week ending Sunday March 03RD 2024 – the 368TH week of this current era that began on Presidents’ Day Weekend of 2017:

TW LW WKS SONG TITLE ARTIST / SITE
1 1 13 Strong
[2ND week @ # 1]
Anne Wilson
2 2 13 Lead On Good Shepherd Patrick Mayberry
3 3 10 Hallelujah Anyway Rend Collective
4 4 5 These Days Jeremy Camp
5 6 2 You’ve Already Won Shane & Shane
6 7 2 He Does Brandon Heath
7 5 17 I Believe Phil Wickham
8 8 4 Don’t Stop Praying Matthew West
9 9 3 Honestly, We Just Need Jesus Terrian
10 1 Praise Elevation Worship

# 1 This Week In:
2023 – “The Lord’s Prayer (It’s Yours)” – Matt Maher
2022 – “Jesus Is Coming Back” – Jordin Feliz Ft. Mandisa & Jonathan Traylor
2021 – “Say I Won’t” – MercyMe
2020 – “Almost Home” – MercyMe
2019 – “Red Letters” – Crowder
2018 – “Gracefully Broken” – Matt Redman Ft. Tasha Cobbs Leonard
2017 – “Love Broke Thru ” – TobyMac

REND COLLECTIVE – My favorite band from Northern Ireland are riding high on my chart with their 4TH hit since 2017 – “Hallelujah Anyway”. They hit # 2 with their debut smash – “Rescuer (Good News)”. They also hit # 2 exactly 4 years ago with their last song – “Your Name Is Power”. I get the feeling that their current hit could be my next # 1 smash. It’s an uplifting song that reminds us that hope awaits us – even if it’s dark and dreary. We must “Hallelujah Anyway”:

SPOTIFY – You can hear “My Top 10 Hits” anytime simply by heading over to my CountUp playlist on Spotify. All 10 hits are there from top to bottom. You can hear them in order from # 1 to # 10, or you can shuffle them. My playlist will be updated every weekend (usually before the actual chart is presented here on Mondays). You can link to it here.

This concludes another weekend of blog posts. I’ll do it again with the new weekend – and 3 new entries – known as #TravelThursday, #SundayScripture, and #MusicMonday.

Your likes, follows, and comments are always appreciated. Thank You for being part of my online ministry to share God’s Good News and win souls for Christ through His music. God used loud music on the radio to reach me in August of 2006. I’ve been testifying about Him ever since.

Be blessed my friends !  May our God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you trust in Him, so that you may overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit.

Sunday Scripture

Greetings my friends. It is Sunday March 03RD 2024, and this is the day that our LORD has made. Let us rejoice. Let us be glad in it. Let us celebrate this great new day of believing, following, trusting, loving, and being more like our Lord + Savior Jesus Christ. Let us love our neighbor as ourself.

This morning I’m in Homestead Florida for perhaps the final time in about 8 weeks. I’ll return home to my retirement community near Sebring Florida this afternoon.

This morning I’m making my last formal appearance at my church home here in Homestead – Living Waters Full Gospel Church. Next Sunday marks my 9TH anniversary with my longtime church family. I’ll be opening the service, singing up on stage songs of Praise & Worship to God, leading Communion for the 79TH and final time, and closing our service with some Good News from our Lord. I’m sure that there will be tears of joy throughout.

Next #SundayScripture I’ll present a transcription of that Communion in its entirety.

I’ve completed my “Sebring & Weigle” sermon. It enters the next phase now – enhancement and incorporation into PowerPoint Presentation. It will be the next sermon that I preach publicly.

Here’s a small excerpt from that sermon. It immediately follows a crucial turning point in the life of Dr. Charles Frederick Weigle:

Psalm 34:17-18 (NLT):
The LORD hears his people when they call to him for help. He rescues them from all their troubles. The Lord is close to the brokenhearted. He rescues those whose spirits are crushed.

I can testify to that. I’m sure that you can too. The LORD rescued me from my troubles. He rescued me when my spirits were crushed. Not just once. Not just twice. But over and over again – ever since He saved me for the first time on that August morning in 2006. Our Lord rescues all who believe and follow Him.

My testimony is featured each week here on #SundayScripture whether it’s part of a sermon, or just me writing about the events of the past week. Hopefully it encourages you and inspires you to seek the Lord, and get closer to Him with each new day.

If you wish to learn more about the God I know then stay tuned to #SundayScripture. The best is yet to come !

Thank you for reading my blog for this day, and may:

The LORD bless you, and keep you.
The LORD make His face shine upon you, and be gracious to you.
The LORD lift up His countenance upon you, and give you peace.

In the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. AMEN.
