The Spotlessly Pure Praises Are Purifying the Hearts_The 7th Anniversary of Manmin Praise, A Special Gift Given to Manmin
Senior Pastor Dr. Jaerock Lee preached the gospel of Jesus Christ all across Israel for three years beginning in July, 2007. On February 15, 2009, God gave the beautiful melody and lyrics of a song that allows for one to sense the footsteps and breath of the Lord in Israel that have remained in the wind, in a blade of grass, and even in a common stone. The song was "Remembering of the Lord", and through this praise people could think of the ministry of the Lord, look back on their faith, and fill their hearts with the love of the Lord.
God is very pleased with the praises offered up by His sanctified children. However, it is very hard to find pure praises that contain the heart of God in this sin-filled end time. So, Senior Pastor Dr. Jaerock Lee prayed earnestly for this, and on February 3, 2009 God finally started to give pure songs with beautiful lyrics in the inspiration of the Holy Spirit.
In Deuteronomy 31:19-22, God gave the Israelites a song through Moses so that they could keep His commands in their hearts and practice them after they entered the Promised Land Canaan. In the same way, God is giving His special gift 'Manmin Praise' through Manmin Central Church to share it with all peoples of all nations.
God of love has given 281 songs so far, and anybody regardless of age and gender can learn to sing them. The theme of the song is well-expressed with various elements of music even in a short song. The genre also varies from ballad, musical music, Christmas songs, dance music, Korean traditional music, and songs for kids, for choirs, and for the orchestra, to intro songs and signature tunes for GCN programs.
The Performing Arts Committee also started to offer the music score for around 10,000 branch and associate churches. When they click the banner of [Manmin Praise] on the church's website (www.manmin.org), the Manmin Praise Songs are downloadable. Moreover, GCN's program "Praise in My Heart" has introduced new songs.
Manmin Praise is sung only for the glory of God, and many of them express the most beautiful heavenly dwelling place, New Jerusalem, the believers' true hope. The songs have been loved by the members and sung in every kind of worship service and in the prayer meetings.
The pure and spotless 'Manmin Praise' delivers the love of God to all members of Manmin throughout the world. The songs give them hope for Heaven and purify their hearts. When they sing the Manmin Praises, they are moved and become peaceful, darkness is driven away, and they experience the works of power of re-creation such as repentance, healing, and problem-solving.
Brother Victor Odiambo of Nairobi Manmin Holiness Church in Kenya said, "Manmin Praise added hope for Heaven to me, and made me feel the heart of God, the Lord, and the shepherd. Singing the praises, I could picture the magnificent Heaven. When I sing the praise, "Heart", I feel that my heart is being broadened and changing into a beautiful heart that can forgive others."
Sister Waripan Noxen of Chiang Rai Manmin Church, Thailand who had been born deaf testified to her healing, saying, "When I praised, 'Let Us Go Forth', I suddenly began hearing the sound of the praise through my right ear, and the ear opened! I came to hear."
The members of Nepal Manmin Church wanted to sing Manmin Praise in Korean and have done so. Brother Haneul Waiba has been changing the pronunciation of Korean into Nepalese letters. He said, "All the lyrics of Manmin Praise let me understand the heart of God and moved my heart very much. I couldn't sing them without shedding tears because I was given the grace of repentance every time. As I began changing the written Korean language of Manmin Praise into Nepalese, I was blessed by God to get a new job."
Manmin Praise has been translated and distributed in ten languages: English, Chinese, Japanese, Russian, Spanish, Tamil, Hindi, French, Tagalog, and Thai.
