AFRITUNES WEEK 148 COVER OF (YOU ARE THE SAME) BY @OLUTHOMAS

Compliments of the season, beloved Hivers and AfriTunes community!
Happy New Year and Merry Christmas in arrears to each and every one of us. I am truly delighted to be a part of this amazing community and to partake in this week's entry. Once again, I warmly welcome you to my blog, and I trust that you will find it worthwhile. My name remains Olu Thomas.

For Week 148 of the AfriTunes weekly performance, I’ll be presenting a rendition of the song You Are the Same, originally performed by the renowned gospel artist, Minister Sinach. Sinach, a globally celebrated Nigerian artist, is known for her impactful music, timeless albums, and songs that have transformed countless lives and inspired hope around the world.

I chose this song for my entry because of its deep personal significance and its uplifting message. The lyrics proclaim, "You are the same yesterday, today, and forever," speaking directly about God—the Creator of heaven and earth. He is the One whose word is final; when He says "yes," no one can say "no." He is unchanging, steadfast, and omniscient, knowing the beginning from the end and the end from the beginning.

God's promises are unshakable. When He makes a promise, it stands firm unless we, through our actions or disbelief, hinder its fulfillment. A perfect example is seen in the story of the Israelites in Egypt. God promised to deliver them from captivity within a specific time. However, because of their unbelief and disobedience, they delayed the manifestation of that promise. Yet, the Word of the Lord remains faithful and true.

God is unchanging, and no one can take His place. To experience true peace and joy, we must make room for Him in our lives. The songwriter of this beautiful piece chose to worship Him because He remains the same in all seasons. Unlike the so-called "gods" of the world who demand destructive sacrifices, the true God has already made the ultimate sacrifice by giving His only Son, Jesus Christ, to die for humanity. As the Bible says, "Whoever believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life." Eternal life begins here on earth, as we rest in Christ, and continues after we leave this world.

I encourage us all to love the Lord wholeheartedly and give Him the honor and glory He alone deserves. At times, life may feel overwhelming, and it may seem like God is far from us. But if we look closely, we will see that He is always by our side, guiding and sustaining us. This is why we must cultivate a heart of gratitude and continually worship Him, for His goodness and mercy endure forever.

Thank you so much for taking the time to read my post. Please feel free to share your thoughts in the comments secrion below. May God bless and keep you, my wonderful family. 🙏

Lyrics
You Are The Same - Sinach
You are the same, yesterday today forever
Nobody is like You
You never change, yesterday today forever
Nobody loves me like You

[Chorus:]
I worship You [3x]
You are the living God
