Meaning & Inspiration

“Mungu wa Maajabu” by Deborah Lukalu with Mike Kalambay is a live worship medley in Swahili and Lingala. It opens with a promise to sing to the Lord for as long as breath remains, close to Psalm 104:33, and asks how best to sing and dance for Him.

The second part declares that God remains God forever. It names Jesus walking on the water and raising Lazarus as reasons He is called the Miracle Worker, recalling Matthew 14:25-27 and John 11:43-44. A Lingala section says that the Father will not leave His people, and that He is the same today, tomorrow, and always.

The third part says there is no one like Him, that He is able, and then names Him God of wonders, God of love, and God of hosts. It ends with a prayer for the God of prayers to come down because the people need Him. The message is confident worship of a God whose power does not change.
