Hello there, ladies and gentlemen, I'm super delighted to avail myself for this week's performance and I'm also happy to listen to your entries for this week. I must say, it's peng💋. I must say, it's been decades since I last presented in this community. Pardon me lovelies, I've been really busy with school and work. I go out early morning and come back home tired but I thank God for this opportunity.
For this week's performance, I chose to do a song titled, "What a Beautiful Name" by Hillsongs. This is one of my best songs that I find myself singing every moment. What really triggered me to sing this song here is the wonders the Name of Jesus do whenever He is called upon. His Name do wonders and no other name can be compared to His.
I had an issue in school and I was really worried about it. The night I discovered about this problem, I couldn't sleep as I cried my eyes out by talking to God and calling upon His Name. I lost hope that the issue will be rectified and I decided to accept my fate and made up my mind to "write the course again". The first day which the test was scheduled for, was postponed (though I felt reluctant going for the test) and the next date wasn't communicated.
I decided to visit home from the hostel where I stay (at annex) putting on a short (two piece material) which is prohibited in classes( I didn't have any class to attend the whole of that week that's why I put it on) I woke up to a call by 6:32, with the person telling me, "African Drama test is by 7am, come with the book, 'Homecoming'"🥺🥺 I spranged up without brushing my teeth nor having my bath. When I reached school, I wasn't allowed inside (town campus where the test will be held) because of my dressing. All my efforts to explain the situation of things to the security men proved abortive. By this time, it was already 7:15 and it was getting late already.
I also knew that I won't be able to meet up if I go change in the hostel and return. I was like, "Oh God, why is this thing happening this way? Ok!! let thy will be done." I went back to the hostel with the mindset of calling the lecturer and telling him what happened (although that didn't look easy). I sat down and pondered on what is going on with this course but I saw God do a new thing. My spirit has been communicating with me, telling me to check my result again. When I did, I saw that the issue was rectified and I passed the course without passing through the stress of frequenting the lecturers office.
Therefore, I urge you today to take your problems to the Lord no matter what it is and see the wonders He will do because by the mention of His Name, every knee must bow. Thank you for reading and listening to the song. Hope to see you next week💋🌹💋
The song lyrics is written below for your humble perusal
You were the Word at the beginning
One with God the Lord Most High
Your hidden glory in creation
Now, revealed in You our Christ
What a beautiful Name it is, what a beautiful Name it is
The Name of Jesus Christ my King
What a beautiful Name it is, nothing compares to this
What a beautiful Name it is, the Name of Jesus
You didn't want heaven without us
So Jesus, You brought heaven down
My sin was great, Your love was greater
What could separate us now?
What a wonderful Name it is, what a wonderful Name it is
The Name of Jesus Christ my King
What a wonderful Name it is, nothing compares to this
What a wonderful Name it is, the Name of Jesus
What a wonderful Name it is, the Name of Jesus
How sweet is Your Name, Lord, how good You are)
We love to sing in Your Name, Lord, love to sing of who You are
Death could not hold You, the veil tore before You
You silenced the boast of sin and grave
The Heavens are roaring the praise of Your glory
For You are raised to life again
You have no rival, You have no equal
Now and forever, God, You reign
Yours is the Kingdom, Yours is the Glory
Yours is the Name above all names
What a powerful Name it is, what a powerful Name it is
The Name of Jesus Christ my King
What a powerful Name it is, nothing can stand against
What a powerful Name it is, the Name of Jesus
