The Major’s Top 10 Hits – Week 76

Every Monday night I post my all-new Top 10 Christian hit music chart based on personal preference. Here it is – for the week ending Sunday July 29TH 2018:

  1. “Dream Small” – Josh Wilson [# 2 last week / 9TH week on chart]
  2. “Grace Got You” – MercyMe [1 / 17TH]
  3. “Resurrection Power” – Chris Tomlin [5 / 25TH]
  4. “Do It Again” – Elevation Worship [3 / 13TH]
  5. “The Way (New Horizon)” – Pat Barrett [4 / 13TH]
  6. “The Breakup Song” – Francesca Battistelli [7 / 3RD]
  7. “Who You Say I Am” – Hillsong Worship [- / 1ST]
  8. “Living Hope” – Phil Wickham [8 / 4TH]
  9. “Wherever I Go” – Dan Bremnes [9 / 4TH]
  10. “Heaven On Earth” – Stars Go Dim [10 / 2ND]

Josh Wilson scores the 24TH # 1 smash of the past 76 weeks of my chart. It’s his follow-up to “That Was Then, This Is Now” from a few years ago that still receives significant radio airplay as a recurrent.

Initially a song by the name of “Dream Small” may seem counterproductive for an Evangelical Christian boldly living this fantastic journey that God has created, but then when you hear the words that Josh sings you realize that it’s the simple moments that can change the world when you just let Jesus use you where you are.

God will come to you right where you are. He chose you. Let Him in to your heart. Let Him show you His love, so that you can show that love to your neighbor – so that you can change the world.

This concludes my 4 blogs this weekend. I’ll be back next weekend with all-new blogs on Thursday, Friday, Sunday, and Monday. I don’t blog on Saturdays. That’s my day of rest. Your likes, follows, and comments are always appreciated. Thank You for being part of my online ministry to win souls for Christ. Enjoy this week. May the LORD bless you and keep you.

Sunday Scripture

When I arrive at my workplace building early tomorrow morning I’ll observe and celebrate my 11TH anniversary of the rebirthing of my USAF career.

It was on Monday July 30TH 2007 when I was escorted by my longtime supervisor at the time about 1,000 feet down the road to my new building, new supervisor, new coworkers, and new job. It was the end of the worst 13 years of my career (and life), and the start of the best 11 years of my career (and life).

It’s what I prayed to God about the most during my first year of salvation. I turned it over to God, and I waited for Him to lead me out of the mud and mire – and down the road.

I waited patiently for the LORD to help me, and He turned to me and heard my cry. He lifted me out of the pit of despair – out of the mud and the mire. He set my feet on solid ground, and steadied me as I walked along. He has given me a new song to sing – a hymn of praise to our God. Many will see what He has done and be amazed. They will put their trust in the LORD. (Psalm 40:1-3 NLT)

God is in the miracle business, and I believe in His miracles. I’ve been the recipient of His miracles since the beginning. I have proof of His miracles. My proof is in my testimony.

Trust in the LORD with all your heart. Do not depend on your own understanding. Seek His will in all you do, and He will show you which path to take. (Proverbs 3:5-6 NLT)

It’s the 75TH edition of the 3RD life of my personal hit music chart, and it’s still going strong, and it’s still a lot of fun to compile and share each week.

Stars Go Dim debut at # 10 this week. Their 2016 U.S. # 1 smash “You Are Loved” is an awesome song that I hear almost daily on my orange iPod Shuffle at work. You may remember the recent ADT ad campaign on TV featuring the song. Here’s the official music video to remind you of just how much God loves you:

Sunday Scripture

Today after our Lead Pastor Bob preached a fun yet powerful sermon that made me smile and laugh I followed him up with Scripture from 1 John Chapter 2 Verses 1 to 6:

My dear children – I am writing this to you so that you will not sin. But if anyone does sin – we have an advocate who pleads our case before the Father. He is Jesus Christ – the One who is truly righteous. He Himself is the sacrifice that atones for our sins – and not only our sins – but the sins of all the world.

And we can be sure that we know Him if we obey His Commandments. If someone claims – “I know God” – but doesn’t obey God’s Commandments – that person is a liar and is not living in the Truth. But those who obey God’s Word truly show how completely they love Him. That is how we know we are living in Him. Those who say they live in God should live their lives as Jesus did.

So how do we live our lives as Jesus did ?  Get in His Word. Learn His Truth. In other words – open the Bible. Read it. Study it. Do so at every opportunity. With today’s modern technology you can take the Bible everywhere you go via smart phone app. The more you read about God – the more you learn about His ways – the more you’ll want to be more like Him.

Pray to God. Just talk to Him in your own words – anywhere – anytime. Tell Him what is on your mind. He already knows, but He wants to hear it from you – in your voice. He wants you to ask Him for guidance and direction. He will always provide it.

Spend time in fellowship with your closest brothers and sisters of your immediate church family, and also spend quality time with those around you who do not yet believe and follow our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. Share God’s Good News with them. Let them see Christ in you – not just by the way you talk – but also by the way you walk your fantastic journey. Share your lives with all, and love all of God’s children.

That’s how we live our lives as Jesus did. That’s how we expand God’s Kingdom here on Earth.
