Support Indie Christian Artists!


 ðŸŽµ A Call to Action for the Body of Christ: Support Independent Christian Artists God's Way! 🎵

Family in Christ, it's time we do things differently.

The music industry has changed — and not for the better. Today, platforms like Spotify and Apple Music have normalized a system that deeply undercuts the value of music, especially for independent Christian artists who pour their hearts, faith, and testimonies into their songs. Spotify and other streaming services pay artists between $0.003 and $0.005 per stream! For every 1 million streams, artists only receive around $3,000–$5,000. That’s less than half a penny per play — music is being treated as virtually free

And the majority of ALL indie artists today never come close to a million streams! 

In fact, at least 60% of artists on Spotify have less than 1,000 monthly streams. Meaning many independent artists don't earn anything at all from streaming!

But we are not of this world!

Napster and the rise of free file sharing may have sparked this trend, but that doesn’t mean we have to continue it. As members of the body of Christ and the Kingdom of God, we are called to be set apart — not just in our lifestyles and message, but also in how we support one another.

📀 Let’s Go Back to Digital Downloads

When you download a song directly from an artist (via Bandzoogle, their website, etc.), they receive 100% of that sale. No middlemen. No fractions of a penny. Just real support for real ministry. For many indie Christian artists, this income isn't about getting rich — it’s about earning an income (a worker is worthy of his or her wages) and having the finances to continue to create music that uplifts souls and spreads the good news of God’s Kingdom!

You will also own the song permanently and can listen to it anytime and anywhere! You remember the iPod and MP3 player days! Did you know that one 128gb SD card that costs $12.99 at Amazon inserted into your phone can hold 25,000 to 30,000 MP3 songs! Now that’s a lot of music!

You are also helping the songwriter, the publisher, the record label (if the artist is signed to one) and in many cases the producer of the music too!

Imagine this:
There are over 600 million Pentecostals and Apostolic believers worldwide. If just 1 million of us each downloaded one $0.99 song, that’s almost $1 million in direct support to Kingdom musicians!

We don't need a million-dollar label.
We are the label.
We are the support system.
We are the Church.

🙌 Here's How You Can Help Today:

  1. Buy digital downloads from your favorite indie Christian artists.
  2. Share their music with friends, church members, and online.
  3. Encourage your community to value music again — and the ministry behind it.
  4. Tag artists and tell them you believe in them. Your encouragement matters.
  5. Repeat. Often.

Let’s build each other up, just like the first-century Church, who shared all they had to meet the needs of the saints. Let’s show the world that Kingdom music matters — and that we take care of our own.

💡 Artists: Make your music available for purchase.

❤️ Supporters: Download. Don’t just stream.

Together, we can shift the culture.
Together, we can restore the value of Christian music.
Together, we can make sure no anointed voice goes unheard because of a broken system.

📥 Download. Support. Uplift.

Temple Of God? Or Whitewashed Tomb?

 


1st Corinthians 3:16-17

"Do you not know that you are the temple of God and that the Spirit of God dwells in you? If anyone defiles the temple of God, God will destroy him. For the temple of God is holy, which temple you are."

The scriptures that I am going to contrast here are similar to the wheat and tares parable. The word is telling us that we can be a temple of God by the indwelling of His Holy Spirit, or we can be a white washed tomb, like the Pharisees of Jesus' day, and false prophets and pastors of today!

You can look good on the outside, dress nice, smell good, skin beautiful and fresh, but inside your heart you can be full of every unclean thing! Evil spirits, strongholds in the mind, have a lying tongue and be a tool used by the devil!

Or you can have God's Spirit indwelling your heart and be full of light, love, peace, joy, all the fruits of the Spirit, and shining and glowing from the inside out! You can be a tool used by God for His kingdom and His purposes, to do good works for His glory!

1st Corinthians 6:18-20

"Flee sexual immorality. Every sin that a man does is outside the body, but he who commits sexual immorality sins against his own body. Or do you not know that your body is the temple of the Holy Spirit who is in you, whom you have from God, and you are not your own? For you were bought at a price; therefore glorify God in your body and in your spirit, which are God’s."

The time is coming when people will finally learn that the church building is NOT the church, and realize that your body IS the temple of God, IF so be that His Spirit dwells within you!

We must also realize and understand that everytime you lay with a man or woman outside of marriage you are joining yourself to that person! It's a spiritual and physical act of intimacy, and this how soul ties are made and you become more oppressed by evil, everytime you sin in this way!

Jesus told the Pharisees multiple times, that you can look good on the outside with your religious robes and clothing, but inwardly, in the heart and mind, you are full of dead men's bones! Totally Unclean!

Matthew 23:25-28

“Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you cleanse the outside of the cup and dish, but inside they are full of extortion and self-indulgence. Blind Pharisee, first cleanse the inside of the cup and dish, that the outside of them may be clean also.

“Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you are like whitewashed tombs which indeed appear beautiful outwardly, but inside are full of dead men’s bones and all uncleanness. Even so you also outwardly appear righteous to men, but inside you are full of hypocrisy and lawlessness."

The same thing is happening today! Instead of Pharisees, insert the title of Pastors, False Apostles, and Prophets, who say they have been sent by God to lead, feed and shepherd the sheep of the Lord, but many have not! These are the wolves in sheep's clothing!

Which one are you? A temple or a tomb?

Examine yourself and ask the Lord Jesus to reveal exactly which one you are!

In Christ Jesus,

And THIS Gospel Of The Kingdom......

 


Mathew 24:14

"And this gospel of the kingdom will be preached in all the world as a witness to all the nations, and then the end will come."

God is about to pour out His Spirit and send forth His true apostles and prophets for the last great move that will continue until Jesus returns!

This last great revival will be for the rise and fall of many, there will be a clear separation between those who serve God and those who do not. This time will prepare God's people to face the man of sin, and the implementation of his mark. The people of God all over the world will be united by the Spirit of God and and be a world wide body of Christ!

What did Jesus mean when He said, "And This Gospel Of The Kingdom....?" The same one He preached of course! The message of Jesus was not about His death, burial, and resurrection, that's not what He preached. He said, "Repent For The Kingdom Of Heaven Is At Hand!" Matthew 4:17

He spoke in parables about what? The Kingdom of God! Just read ALL of Matthew chapter 13. 
The Parable of the Sower, The Parable of the Wheat and the Tares, The Parable of the Mustard Seed, The Parable of the Leaven, The Parable of the Hidden Treasure, The Parable of the Pearl of Great Price

The Parable of the Dragnet: Matthew 13:47-50

“Again, the kingdom of heaven is like a dragnet that was cast into the sea and gathered some of every kind, which, when it was full, they drew to shore; and they sat down and gathered the good into vessels, but threw the bad away. So it will be at the end of the age. The angels will come forth, separate the wicked from among the just, and cast them into the furnace of fire. There will be wailing and gnashing of teeth.”

ALL the parables were about the Kingdom of Heaven or God! God is going to gather many people from every nation on earth! The scipture says it in the parable of the dragnet and in the book of Revelation!

Revelation 7:9-14

"After these things I looked, and behold, a great multitude which no one could number, of all nations, tribes, peoples, and tongues, standing before the throne and before the Lamb, clothed with white robes, with palm branches in their hands, and crying out with a loud voice, saying, “Salvation belongs to our God who sits on the throne, and to the Lamb!” All the angels stood around the throne and the elders and the four living creatures, and fell on their faces before the throne and worshiped God, saying: “Amen! Blessing and glory and wisdom, Thanksgiving and honor and power and might, Be to our God forever and ever. Amen.”

Then one of the elders answered, saying to me, “Who are these arrayed in white robes, and where did they come from?” And I said to him, “Sir, you know.” So he said to me, “These are the ones who come out of the great tribulation, and washed their robes and made them white in the blood of the Lamb."

What does Gospel mean? Good news! And what is the good news of? The Kindom Of God!

And how do you enter the Kingdom of God? You MUST be born from above! Born of water AND the Spirit!

John 3:1-8

There was a man of the Pharisees named Nicodemus, a ruler of the Jews. This man came to Jesus by night and said to Him, “Rabbi, we know that You are a teacher come from God; for no one can do these signs that You do unless God is with him.” Jesus answered and said to him, “Most assuredly, I say to you, unless one is born [a]again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.”

Nicodemus said to Him, “How can a man be born when he is old? Can he enter a second time into his mother’s womb and be born?”

Jesus answered, “Most assuredly, I say to you, unless one is born of water and the Spirit, he cannot enter the kingdom of God. That which is born of the flesh is flesh, and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit. Do not marvel that I said to you, ‘You must be born again.’ The wind blows where it wishes, and you hear the sound of it, but cannot tell where it comes from and where it goes. So is everyone who is born of the Spirit.”

The original Greek translation says, unless one is born from above, not again. You must be born from ABOVE! That is baptism in water and the Holy Spirit! Without both you cannot enter or see, the kingdom of God, and therefore your sins will not be forgiven and your soul will not be saved!

Why isn't THIS gospel of the Kingdom being preached throughout the world right now you ask? Jesus answered that question in Matthew 13:10-11

"And the disciples came and said to Him, “Why do You speak to them in parables?” He answered and said to them, “Because it has been given to you to know the [a]mysteries of the kingdom of heaven, but to them it has not been given."

Jesus does NOT give His secrets, hidden truths, and mysteries of the Kingdom of God to everyone! But only His chosen apostles and prophets!! It's all right there in plain text for all to see and read for themselves!!!

Have you entered the Kingdom of God? If not, all the peoples of the earth will soon have an opportunity to hear THIS Gospel of the Kingdom, and make their choice. The times will be so hard and grievous that God will allow people to come to Him all the way until the end. He said Himself, "Whosoever will call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved."

What will you choose? Jesus or satan? The man of sin and his mark? Life or death? Wailing and knashing of your teeth? Or peace and paradise?

The choice will be yours!

In Christ

Revival IS Coming Soon!!!

 


The heart cry of the righteous is for God to bring revival! To pour out His Spirit on this earth to unite His people! One Lord, One Faith, One baptism!

I do believe the time is near, even at the door! The Lord has been giving, dreams, visions, and words, telling me over the years that there would be a great outpouring of His Spirit that would bring people outside the four walls of church buildings and into the streets of the world!

Young people, children, elderly, we all need Jesus, we all need a great move of God to set us free from bondage, sin, and corruption. 

The  Lord Jesus has saved His best wine for last, the holy apostles and prophets He will send to preach the gospel of the Kingdom. The last great move before King Jesus returns.

This morning my wife told me she dreamed of a woman inside of a home, and she opened a window outwardly and it was being held open by a chain and a wooden stick, it started to drizzle outside then all of a suddena a great deluge of water filled the whole house! God pouring out His Living Water upon the people!

This was a confirming message from God to me and I will be waiting in expectation of this outpouring and I will be looking forward to being united with the body of Christ and His bride in these last days!

Joel 2:23-27

"Be glad then, you children of Zion, And rejoice in the Lord your God; For He has given you the former rain faithfully, And He will cause the rain to come down for you—The former rain, And the latter rain in the first month. The threshing floors shall be full of wheat, And the vats shall overflow with new wine and oil. “So I will restore to you the years that the swarming locust has eaten, The crawling locust, The consuming locust, And the chewing locust, My great army which I sent among you.You shall eat in plenty and be satisfied, And praise the name of the Lord your God, Who has dealt wondrously with you; And My people shall never be put to shame.Then you shall know that I am in the midst of Israel: I am the Lord your God And there is no other. My people shall never be put to shame."

Gospel Of The Kingdom Of God: Tommy Hicks' End-Times Vision

Do You Receive It? If so pray for it! Shout out to God about it! And let's dance in the rain together!

Azusa Street Testimonies (Part 4)

 


Healed From Sickness

A sister who has had hemorrhages of the lungs for years was brought very low lately, having seven hard hemorrhages one after another. She was nearing the river and heard her name called three times by a heavenly messenger, but she answered that she did not feel she could say she had fought a good fight and kept the faith. Then the drawing to the other shore ceased. The saints prayed for her, and she arose, and dressed, being perfectly healed. She went to the table and ate her dinner and afterwards played and sang several hymns. She has received the baptism with the Holy Spirit and God has raised her up to preach the whole Gospel.

From Alaska

Bro. H. M. Turney, an evangelist who was in Alaska when he heard of the outpouring of God's Spirit in California, struck out immediately for Los Angeles, and he has received the baptism with the Holy Spirit and gift of tongues. About five minutes before he received the Holy Spirit, while kneeling at the altar, he whispered to Bro. Oyler that the devil was tempting him that the speaking in tongues was not for him. Bro. Oyler replied, "The devil is a liar from the beginning." And immediately the Holy Spirit fell on our brother and he spoke with tongues. Since then he says the Lord waked him up at night speaking and singing in tongues, as He has so many others. A brother from Redlands, seventy-nine years old, came for Divine healing. He was deaf and used ear trumpets. The Lord opened his ears immediately. Then as he arose to go, a brother asked him," "Where are you glasses?" He looked around and said with astonishment, "Why, I can see as well as I ever did." He had had poor eyesight. The Lord also healed him of rheumatism at the same time. "With his stripes we are healed."

Bro. G.A. Cook Receives The Holy Spirit

God has told His children to be witnesses, and the most convincing evidence is testimony of personal knowledge. To endeavor to help those who are sending in letters of inquiry to the Apostolic Faith office, asking how they may receive the Holy Spirit, the writer will state a little of his personal experience in obtaining this pearl of great price, the baptism with the Holy Spirit. I dropped into the meetings on Azusa Street some time in April, having heard that some people were speaking in tongues, as they did on the day of Pentecost. Although I had been trying to preach Pentecost for five years, the speaking in tongues was as strange to me as though it had never been mentioned in God's word. At first the meeting seemed a very tame affair to me, as I had been along the line of much fleshly demonstration and noise.

As I was indoctrinated in the second blessing being the baptism with the Holy Spirit, I branded the teaching as heretical, not going to the meetings for some time. In the meantime, Pentecost came to the place, and many began to speak in tongues. I now began to attend regularly. In fact, I could not stay away. My heart began to break up, and soon I was going from one person to another, asking them to forgive me for harsh words and criticism. God so melted my heart that I would cry at my work or riding on a streetcar. How the dear Lord began to teach me that what I needed was His loving, tender Spirit, and that power with God meant deep humility in our dealings with our fellow creatures. I now began to go to the altar and earnestly seek for the Lord to have His way with me. Soon the power of God began to work with me. The Holy Spirit showed me that I must be clay in the Potter's hands, an empty vessel before the Lord. I laid aside all doctrine, all pre-conceived ideas and teachings and became absolutely empty. The Holy Spirit now settled down on me, and I could feel the power going through me like electric needles. The Spirit taught me that I must not resist the power but give way and become limp as a piece of cloth. When I did this, I fell under the power, and God began to mold me and teach me what it meant to be really surrendered to Him. 

I was laid out under the power five times before Pentecost really came. Each time I would come out from under the power, I would feel so sweet and clean, as though I had been run through a washing machine. I now had come to the place where I was completely submitted to the whole will of God. I had been seeking about five weeks, and on a Saturday morning I awoke and stretched my arms toward heaven and asked God to fill me with the Holy Spirit. My arms began to tremble, and soon I was shaken violently by a great power, and it seemed as though a large pipe was fitted over my neck, my head apparently being off. I was now filled with the Holy Spirit. Words cannot describe the power I felt. The nearest description that could be given would be the action of a pump under terrific pressure, filling me with oil. I could feel the filling in my toes and all parts of my body which seemed to me to swell until I thought I would burst. 

I do not know how long this continued but it seemed to me a long time. The pressure was now removed and my soul and spirit seemed to leave the body and float in the air just above. My body seemed hard and metallic like iron. This was undoubtedly the baptism into the death of Christ. It was now time for me to arise and go to work, so I got up without speaking in tongues. I believe I would have spoken in tongues then, if I had remained in the hands of the Lord long enough. About thirty hours afterwards, while sitting in the meeting on Azusa Street, I felt my throat and tongue begin to move, without any effort on my part. Soon I began to stutter and then out came a distinct language which I could hardly restrain. I talked and laughed with joy far into the night. Praise His name for such a wonderful experience of power and love and joy. G.A. Cook.

A Confirming Prophetic Word?


 

The Lord said to me this morning: "There Will Be War; A Terrible One"


This is what sister Mary Galmond said over a hundred years ago, from Azusa Street End-Times Prophecies post.

"Then He said to me again: "The time is coming when men are going to get desperate and will go into the banks even at noontime and hew men down, and take out the silver and gold and walk on with it. They will rob the banks in open daytime." The Lord said the time was coming when men would not regard a man's life any more than that of a dog. Then He says again that there is going to be a war as there never was before. Four nations from the four corners of the earth are coming together for battle, and it is going to be one of the worst wars that ever was in history."



In Christ,
Tyrone
