Life n' Praise Blog: 4REAL: The Neverclaim (Worship Concert)

The Neverclaim band (Beji is hidden at the back...haha)

So Blessed

Sunday, February 3, 2019, was the last day of The Neverclaim concert when the band ministered to the church of Cathedral of Praise for the 4REAL event. In three days, during the first weekend of February, there were not less than 5,000 souls saved; many repented and accepted Jesus Christ as their personal Lord and Savior. It was so amazing to witness the Holy Spirit touching people's lives, and the miracles that made people overwhelmed...

Four of my invites attended and I was so glad to see them worship the Lord as He opened their hearts to be filled in His presence.

In the midst of worship, Jeremiah Carlson, the lead vocalist, shared his testimonies, and declaring about the goodness of the Lord in people's lives.

Revival in Christ

"We are a band called The Neverclaim. We're so honored to be with you. I got to tell you guys somethin'.... We played all over the world and it might sound just a little partial here, but... we think that the Philippines are probably one of our favorite places we've ever been..." Jeremiah stated during the Saturday night worship service. "And that's –I'm not joking... it's serious..." He added immediately.

"And one of the reasons I can say that is because there's something about this culture that just gets it; you're so full of joy, and so full of hope. And I'm tellin' you guys right now, if there's anything that this world needs more than ever before, it is joy, and it is hope. Because on the foundation of that, on the foundation of hope, which our hope is — not found in like, concerts per se— our hope is not found in this band or this music. It's a matter of fact, we didn't come here just to play music for you to listen to. We all came here to make a collective noise to the only One who is worthy of our adoration, Jesus."

"He is the One in whom we put our hope, and because you have such a culture of hope, I believe that you guys are on the verge of such a massive revival that the world is gonna look at and goin', 'What is God doing in the Philippines?'... There's joy that you guys have, that many of the rest of the world, and even the church long for; A type of joy that when there's any bad situation they face, they say, 'No matter what I'm going through, I'm gonna look at that bad situation and I'm still gonna rejoice, 'cause I know that God is good."

The congregation shouted out and gave praise to the Lord as the music continued, while the band played the song, "Revival".

One of my old time favorites is " Dance with God", which excites me so much every time I hear it. It's the real joy and laughter that rises up from my heart, knowing that I am FREE to WORSHIP God whatever I want to do: sing, dance , jump, laugh, run– like CRAZY! It's so amazing. I always remember to realize that being a Christian, I don't need to think about what people say about it. Just focus on God and love Him with all my mind, heart, and soul.

Everyone was also blessed with Jeremiah's sincerity and humility towards God. He had always pointed it out all through Him, as this is what he has been called for; to play music that will lead more people to Christ, and witness a supernatural change in people's lives.
