Victory When We Worship
We lift Jesus high above our circumstances in recognition of the fact that there is power in our worship. And we also recognise that God gives us the victory when we praise him.
Moses’s strategy for victory against the enemies of the Israelites was hands raised towards God. “Whenever Moses held up his hand, Israel prevailed, and whenever he lowered his hand, Amalek prevailed. But Moses’ hands grew weary, so they took a stone and put it under him, and he sat on it, while Aaron and Hur held up his hands, one on one side, and the other on the other side. So his hands were steady until the going down of the sun. And Joshua overwhelmed Amalek and his people with the sword.” (Exodus 17:11-13)
When we lift our hands in praise and adoration to God then we will have victory over every situation that comes to test us. There is power when we worship and offer praise to God. Our worship takes our eyes off the difficulty and circumstances and places our trust and focus on God. Hands raised towards God in complete surrender as we accept that we do not have the power to fight this battle on our own.
In thanksgiving to our Jehovah most high, we invite God into our difficulties. We adore him as Lord and King and hail him as our Prince of Peace who overthrows kingdoms and causes our enemies to flee. Our faithful God who has never lost a battle and who always causes us to triumph.

I am a trained Social Worker who currently provides professional leadership on a programme to support Social Work students and Newly Qualified Social Workers entering the Social Work Profession.
Born and raised in Jamaica in a Christian family where my father is an ordained Pastor and Deacon who has served for over 50 years in the ministry. My father is also a trained musician and our family can be described as a musical family. I grew up in a small farming community in St. Peter’s, St. Andrew and my parents also have a small farm.
I credit my gift of writing to my father who I watched and listened to over the years as he wrote sermons, poems and other recitals in his capacity in ministry. English has always been an easy subject for me and over the years I have developed an increased interest in writing.
I am a Trainer, I sing and have a passion for worship, the spoken word and the free flow of the prophetic anointing. I am married to my best friend Andrew Christopher Young who is an advanced Musician and whose music you can find on YouTube and Facebook. I am a trained Coach and Mentor and I love experimenting with food so I love cooking. I enjoy trying cultural dishes from across the world and I view food as an entry into cultures and languages.
