In my interpretation of Word Sound and Power as
a description of my work as a musician and a
writer/reviewer, I see the Power described
in the words of my Lord God and Saviour, Who
called Himself the Word.
He said: "Unto Me is given ALL POWER, in
Heaven and on Earth".
So what are my words, what is my music, without
that Power? Asking the question, is
answering it.
That is the Power I discovered after I
released my first tracks on MP3.com and they
turned out to continually dominate the Reggae
Download Charts for years in a row. That is the Power
I discovered when I found out, how certain
writings of me were used by JAH to help others
forward in their quest for the truth.
It is not my Power, no not at all. I
can't, won't, wouldn't ever try to even think
about that.
And it's definitely not limited to my work as
an artist, either. For my works reflect my life,
and my life is in the Hands of He that has all
power, in heaven and on earth.
But still, so many times we feel like we have
to produce the Word and the Sound,
our works if you will, in order to get that Power.
It's true for artists, it's true for everyone!
I'm nobody special. The Power is
special, though. But everyone can reach the Source
of the Power.
That Power is the Holy Spirit of JAH
Himself. And the Holy Spirit is a Comforter, a
Helper, when we do what Jah wants us to do. And
that is, in my opinion, the key.
I could make music, write articles, just for
myself. I would never get any Power, even
though I might think I do. But it is in obeying JAH
Word and Sound, that the Power
will manifest. For it truly is JAH Himself, that
gives Power. It's not a Power that we can
direct, not even a Power we can "use"
deliberately. It is a sovereign move of the
Almighty Himself, Who uses us for His glory. Let
us be open vessels for Yesus Kristos, so that He
can fill us with His Holy Spirit. Let us pray to
be filled with the Holy Spirit on a daily basis,
so that He can use us for His Word, His Sound,
and His Power! Amen, and Selah.
