Artist: Push-It! Mktg & Promo
Genre: Gospel
Duration: 00:03:18

Description:
The song, “Let God Arise” was inspired by Psalms 68: 1: “Let God Arise, let his enemies be scattered.” Each day that is given is a wonderful blessing from God. Yet we are faced with new hurdles, controversy, obstacles and difficult decisions. Through my personal experience, I know that God is faithful. He has unwavering love for his children and can deliver and sustain us. The title cut, “Let God Arise” is chosen as Southeastern Gospel Music Workshop’s title cut. Based on the knowledge that when we remove ourselves from a problem and call upon God, he will rise. And deliver. God intervenes, strongholds are broken, spiritual victories are won, chains are broken and many souls are saved. Dr. Marcia Leeks Every once in a while an exceptional and incredible group impacts the gospel music industry and leaves an unforgettable impression.
