Essence Of Worship | I will Praise the Lord(Live in Nairobi)

Meaning & Inspiration

The energy in that room in Nairobi comes through clearly in this track by Essence of Worship. When we talk about praise, we often get caught up in how it feels, but this group shifts the focus back to a firm, unshakeable declaration of who God is. Singing I will praise the Lord with all of my heart hits on the very command found in Deuteronomy 6:5, where we are instructed to love the Lord with everything inside of us. It is not just a Sunday morning activity but a total commitment of the spirit that requires our full participation regardless of our current mood or circumstance.

When they repeat My God is good, they aren't just reciting a catchy hook; they are declaring an eternal truth. Psalm 34:8 invites us to taste and see that the Lord is good, and these lyrics act as a corporate confession of that reality. It is a bold move to claim I am a living testimony in the middle of a song. That line turns the music into a witness stand. It acknowledges that our very lives exist only because of His grace, much like Paul writing to the Corinthians about being letters written by the Spirit. By framing their worship within the morning, afternoon, and evening, they follow the lead of the Psalmist who made a practice of declaring God’s love in the morning and His faithfulness at night.

The bridge where they confess He is Lord who makes a way pulls directly from the heart of Isaiah 43:16, where God promises to make a way in the wilderness and rivers in the desert. Worship is the act of recognizing that God is the primary architect of our paths, not just a bystander in our success. It strips away our self-reliance and places the credit where it belongs. There is no room for pride when you are shouting that the Creator of the universe is the one opening doors you couldn't touch on your own. Keep this track close when you need to be reminded that your praise is a weapon against discouragement and a direct line to the One who is perpetually good.
