This is why He has been my Ebenezer (The Lord my Help) until now. I am deeply humbled by His grace and how faithful He has been to me and my family.

Let Psalms:150 Be my prayer to all of us and that we shall worship in truth and Spirit. May the Lord be worshiped because that’s what we were created to do by Him. Through worship let us see the manifestation of The Holy Spirit working in our lives.God bless u"

Watch Maxton Media Videos
https://www.youtube.com/user/Maxtonmediavideos


She admits to have come a long way having held on to the word of God as the only fortress when she was growing up.

Her childhood did happen as a miracle and she grew up in a tough environment. She says that the song "Mambo Sawa" is inspired by the tough experiences that she faced while growing up and she wants to encourage those who might be going through the same situation through the song.



KAMSA
In Mambo Sawa video she features acts by her long time friends and she takes a moment to let the discouraged hearts who are at the verge of giving up not to as God is the ONLY author of their lives and He has control over any situation,  therefore "All Is Well" when one depends on God and no need to worry.


"Never give up in Praying to God. Pray with a clean mind and with faith. When Praying always rejoice in hope that the thing you are praying for will be answered, be patient in time of tribulation and never stop praying to God."


The video which is directed by Jijo Drumbeats of Maxton Media is already out and the response is overwhelming.

Anne Otieno: I Started As A Praise And Worship Member

ANNE Otieno in the moments of worship
Anne Otieno may be known to a few people in the music arena by name but not by her great vocal gifting and song writing ability. Anne Started singing in the year 2000 in church. 

She picked interest in singing and joined the praise and worship team in her church by then. This saw her gradually rise to a committed and spiritual praise and worship member that would move masses into deep worshiping through her own compositions and common praise and worship songs.

Anne continued serving diligently in her church apart from her personal engagements. It was not until 2010 when she dared to knock the  studio doors trying to find out if she could record her compositions that she had kept for some while. This saw her start recording her first single that encouraged her to successively record 7 more songs making up her first album titled "YESU USINIPITE"- Do Not Pass Me Lord. The Album went viral selling in Both Mombasa, Nairobi and Kisumu.

Anne Otieno has been blessed to work on her second audio album titled "NIGUSE TENA"  and it is just amazing how God can use humble voices to reach out and uplift the heartbroken. 

Anne is set to release the first single of her new album that will be out next week. Talking to Anne, she expressed her excitement and appreciates God for having considered her as an instrument to carry His anointing to the people. She says Niguse Tena song came up when she was going through something and she felt she needed God's visitation. She dedicates the song to those who may be going through lonely moments of hardship to call upon God to touch them.

Anne loves listening to worship music at her own free time while meditating upon the word of God. She gets her music inspiration from Eunice Njeri and Sarah K.

Favorite Verse: 2 Chronicles 7: 14 - 16
Anne Otieno 
"...if my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and I will forgive their sin and will heal their land...."

In the new album she has a track that derives from this verse. The song is titled "Tuponye Bwana" - Heal Us Lord.

Currently, Anne is based in Mombasa where she has kept her music ministry growing from one level to the next and she still serves in her church as a praise and worship member.

The Niguse Tena album was done at Gamba Records - a production house owned by Abeddy Ngosso and the video is done at Maxton Media directed by Koffiboy.

Keep it here for the video.

Johnson Mwakazi: God Works Through The Unexpected People

Johnson Mwakazi
Going Through Johnson Mwakazi's facebook fun page and got this inspiring story here which he posted on 20 July at 07:00 


Watch Maxton Media Videos
https://www.youtube.com/user/Maxtonmediavideos


"It was about eight o’clock when her son who was
asthmatic developed some complications. He had to
be rushed to the nearest hospital about 1km away
or else it would be fatal. She called a neighbor
who had a car but the neighbor said the car had
no fuel; she called the pastor who said he had
visiting pastors from USA and could not leave
them alone. She decided to carry the son to the
hospital; she could not imagine loosing her only
child to the same sickness that had killed the
husband few years earlier. She had a problem with
her leg and could not move fast enough and the
son was also heavy for her to move faster. Along
the way she met people rushing home from work
who just stared at her. She tried to beg them for
help but they assumed her. She also tried to stop
passing vehicles but they never responded. 

There is always a way
She fell many times but she had to keep moving. Then
a man who was mad and used to roam the streets
Unclad noticed her. He came running towards her
and took the son from her. She could not talk but
just pointed the direction of the hospital. The
crazy Unclad man could understand perfectly well
what she meant since he saw the desperate boy
struggling for breath. 

He put him on the shoulder
and told the woman “all will be well” as he ran
towards the hospital. The doctors on seeing the
crazy man knew something was really wrong, they
attended to the boy immediately. Ten minutes
later the mother arrived and the doctor broke the
news “if he was brought five Minutes later, he
would have died..” . 

God doesn’t have to use Bishops, Pastors, Alfas, family, politicians & rich people with cars to rescue or bless you. 

No matter what may come your way, no matter what
you are going through, your life is in His hands &
He has good thoughts for you. I know you will
make it. For there is a friend in God who will wipe
away your tears. The Word says for with GOD all
things are possible!
Type AMEN and SHARE After Reading.. may the
Almighty God bless You All

Florence Andenyi: ANGELA CHIBALONZA INSPIRED ME

Sometimes our very own heroins are not praised in their own soil but in one way or another they will always be noticed when they execute their heroic tasks in their simplest ways.
FLORENCE ANDENYI


Florence Andenyi rest be assured that she is a time bomb in the Gospel Music ministry. Born and raised in Kibera slums, she has come against all tides to represent the body of Christ through music and this lady is just on point. Take time to go through her music and you will agree with me. 


Florence took many by surprise after she released her first single video titled Kimbilio which received and continues to receive a massive airplay.


FLORENCE LOVES CHILDREN'S INNOCENCE
Kimbilio

The Song Kimbilio which she says is aimed at praising God for the goodness He has sprinkled in her life when she was going through tough times. For the many who have watched and listened to this song can agree with the fact that the song is very well brought out and reflects the true feeling of submission of a humble heart.


Watch the video here;
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gr6lU4XK_fA

ASANTE VIDEO
Florence went ahead and released another song titled ASANTE, a song that she featured Maurice Katee. She dedicates the song to Grace Wambui Gatubu - a friend's child who was born premature 6 months into pregnancy. Grace who is currently 5 years old is blind, deaf and mute though Florence agues on that Grace can see hear and talk spiritually hence she thanks God for that fact.

Watch the ASANTE video here;
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0cCRQWfSpo0


Florence Performing alongside Chiza of 24 Elders

Mungu Yupo
Florence has a very new video titled Mungu Yupo. In the song she uses it to assure her soul that GOD EXISTS and will fight her battles. The song that she featured B2 Shan goes ahead to encourage those who are in various battles not to worry but to submit to GOD WHO FIGHTS OUR BATTLES.

Watch the song Mungu Yupo here;

Florence Andenyi is a great song writer, a vocal powerhouse and a lady that anyone who understands music can not give a cold shoulder on her music.


FLORENCE WITH KELELE TAKATIFU
She explains herself  here.
"Honestly I was inspired by the late Angela Chibalonza, I used to listen to her songs and tears would roll down my chicks. Her songs always make me feel I am close to God and that made me develop a soft spot for music in my heart. I am also inspired by The Word of God.

 I love giving people hope assuring them that God is able to change their situations no matter what because I am a living testimony. 






My Mission
I am into music to accomplish the mission of God in me. Mine is not only a talent but a calling because I don't just do music, I feel I have an appointment with God. My singing is a ministry that God called me to do."






Watch her 3 videos she has in store for you;
