Nathan Paul is a sensational music minister whom God has blessed with the grace to write inspirational songs that have been blessing souls in Nigeria and beyond such as The Lifter, Have Your Way , with your glory and so on. This time around, the crooner of The Lifter has come up again with a new single titled – Jehovah Mmudim.
According to 1 Samuel 17: 45-46, the Bible says when Goliath confronted David, David said to Goliath, “you come against me with a sword, a spear and a javalin, but I come to you in the name of the Lord of Hosts of Israel whom you have defied.
Today, He will deliver you into my hands”… From this passage, The Lord of Hosts (translated as Jehovah Mmudim in Ibibio language in Akwa Ibom State in Nigeria) was a shield and weapon of war to David as He is to everyone who depends on Him today.
Jehovah Mmudim is a song of worship and praise produced by King Baseda, one of the finest gospel producers in Nigeria with the fusion of African trado and soft gospel rock beat that can activate spirit man to worship God Almighty. The lyrics of the song are well written in English and Ibibio languages for everyone to understand.
I tag this song A Song Of Midnight Battle because of the inspiration behind it. God bless you as you listen to it, Amen.
