At times it was really frustrating for me, cause I will have all these music compositions but no lyrics to it. But in time the Lord was gracious enough to me and He has blessed me with beautiful songs written through the help of Holy Spirit.  I recorded my first album ‘Something in that Moment’ in 2012. Still though I feel that music comes much more easily than lyrics.

In the meantime the Lord was busy with a deep purification process inside of me.  It was sometimes very hard and painful because of my past, but it was so worth it.

My desire was just to know Him more, but even though I was growing spiritually, I felt as if there was still something missing.  I was tired of hearing the same messages/teachings over and over.  It felt to me there must be something more, something deeper, something that we are missing… the deeper mysteries of His Kingdom.  I kept on telling the Lord that I was tired of being fed with baby food, that I wanted solid meat!

I remember one night, about a week after the launch of my album, I was sitting on my bed, and I went to Sarah’s website.  I heard of her from a friend who played the french horn at my album launch.  She kept on telling me about this ‘Sarah Jubilee’ girl, and the amazing messages and revelations she receives from God.

When I opened up her website, I saw that I can download her book ‘Jubilee – Sounding of the awakening blast of the horn’.  I immediately started reading it, and I could literally not put the book down.  As I was reading it I just started crying which soon turned into sobbing, and I could just feel the presence of Holy Spirit intensely in my room. I realized that the messages in the book was what I was craving for all the time!  It just excited and filled my spirit to a point where I felt I could burst! It was messages from God which I’ve never heard before, though in a way it still felt so familiar, as if it was bringing me home.

I saw that she lived in South Africa, in Hermanus.  I just thought to myself that I would really like to meet her. The thought even crossed my mind that I should send her my album, but I thought that that would maybe come across too vain, so I just left it. To my shocking surprise she got my details and send me a message a few weeks later, telling me that she heard about my music, and asking me where she can purchase a cd. I messaged her back, and told her that her book had such a big impact on me and blessed me immensely, and that I will post her a cd with pleasure.

Long story short, I ended up visiting her in Hermanus and we became best friends! She absolutely loved my music, and I absolutely loved her teachings/writings from Abba. I learned so much from her, she was such a great example to me of how one should live a life fully surrendered to Yeshua, no compromise, no space for lukewarmness. Yeshua was her first love, and I wanted what she had, that deep intimate love relationship with Him, living a life of absolute purity!

As the time went on i kept on telling Abba that I so badly just want to sing what she writes, because I am so passionate about the messages. It just helped me grow spiritually to another level, drawing me closer and closer to Him, understanding His ways and His principles so much more! But once again I just left it, not knowing at all that that was exactly His plan for us! It was enough for me just to have an awesome new friend, not realizing our destinies was about to intertwine.

A few months later, she send me a voicenote in the evening, with her singing some of the lyrics from ‘First Love’, out of her Shama book.  It was just her beautiful voice, no instruments.  I listened to it, closed my eyes, and I started imagining the piano in the background.  A song slowly started forming in my mind. I know now that something important was being released in the spirit that night as I was sitting on my carpet in my room listening to Sarah’s voicenote.  It was the trigger that set off the whole amazing journey together.

The next night on Shavout (Pentecost), she and her mom came visiting me and we started worshipping.  I was playing the piano and Sarah put her Shama book infront of me with the lyrics of ‘First Love’.  Suddenly the music just came and I started singing the song as my fingers flowed across the piano. Before we knew it, the second song, ‘My Exodus’ came rushing out of the heavens. To me it was no coincidance that it happened on the night of Pentecost.

Within 3 days, Abba gave me the music to all 7 songs from Sarah’s ‘Shama’ book.  It just came effortlessly, and every piece of music He gave me just fitted perfectly in with the lyrics.  That was very unusual for me, because when I do write songs, I always first compose the music and then the lyrics.  This was completely out of my comfort zone, and just another confirmation that this could only be with the help from Holy Spirit.  We clearly felt Abba leading us to record an album. I still remember the one night we prayed together that He will provide for us so that we can have it produced, since its not a cheap process. We knew that it was in His will and that He will provide, but little did we know that He will literally one hour later, after we prayed, miraculously grant our request!

Within a few months our album ‘ Shama – The lifestyle of a true worshipper’ was released.

So many amazing things have happened since that time, which is too much to list.  One of the things was that He send us to Israel for 7 weeks, where we worked on another album together ‘Trumpets to Tabernacle – A Journey back to the Garden’. It was such a precious time which I will never forget. 

I am so grateful to Abba for blessing me with such an amazing sister! It is an honour to walk this journey with her. We look forward to see what His plans is in the future.  It will definetely include more beautiful lyrics and music from His heavenly throneroom!

PSALM 115:1

Not unto us, O Lord, not unto us, but to Your name be the glory, because of Your love and faithfulness.
