(05:22):
in for season nine The Number of Divine Completeness and
the Let's Talk to the Lord Gospel radio talk show
and Kingdom. The guest for season nine of Let's Talk
to the Lord is recording artist Lisa Stephens Kingdom. Lisa
Stephens is a independent Memphis rm B gospel artist with

(05:45):
a four octave range and has twenty twenty five Rhythm
of Gospel Awards nominations. Sister Lisa Stephens, Welcome to Let's
Talk to the Lord. Hi, so glad to be here, ammen.
And before we begin our interview, please tell the Kingdom

(06:09):
more about you. Who is Lisa Stevens.

Speaker 13 (06:14):
Well, first of all, I am a Christian and I
am an R and B gospel artist loving to sing
for the Lord and people.

Speaker 11 (06:24):
Aamemen, and please share a little of your journey to
relationship with our Lord and Savior, Christ Jesus.

Speaker 13 (06:34):
I got saved when I was eleven, so I've had
a very long relationship with the Lord, ups and downs
like everyone else, but my faith has grown and matured
so much over the years.

Speaker 11 (06:49):
Ammen. And what is your calling and purpose in the
Body of Christ and in the Kingdom of God.

Speaker 13 (06:58):
It is to leave people close to Him, to plan
a seed with the people, and to do it through
my God given soulful voice and uplifting lyrics to reach
as many audiences as Lord would like for me.

Speaker 11 (07:11):
To reach a man, a man and a man again. Kingdom.
I will be interviewing Sister Stephens about the story and
testimony behind the songs You Are My Lord and just
Believe Kingdom to begin declaring that Christ is our Lord

(07:33):
says that we recognize Jahweh as our most high God
and Christ's authority divinity, and Christ as our master and ruler.
It denotes our faith commitment and a deeper relationship with
God Kingdom. In Jesus's day on earth, the word lord

(07:55):
was often used as a title of respect toward earthly
now Kingdom. When the leper called Jesus lord and Matthew
Aden two, he was declaring respect for Jesus as a
healer and a teacher kingdom. After the Resurrection, the title
lord became much more than a title of honor or respect.

(08:20):
It became a way of declaring Jesus as Christ. Thomas
said to him my Lord and my God. And Acts
two and thirty six it declares in verse thirty six,
let all the house of Israel therefore know for certain
that God has made him both Lord and Christ. This Jesus,

(08:46):
whom you crucified kingdom. The statement Jesus is Lord means
that Jesus is God and El Shadai is our most
high God. Jesus Christ. Yes, you what Christ had has
all authority in heaven and on earth. He is in
fact the Lord of lords. Sister Stephens, what does Jesus's

(09:10):
Lord mean to you? Uh?

Speaker 13 (09:14):
You're my Lord is my special city. It's actually my
special single. It started out as a praise in worship
song just to the Lord. And in the middle of
before I could finish the recording of it, my precious Mama,
who uh was my bestie and closest confidant, passed, and

(09:39):
so before I recorded it, I added the verse about
you were there for me that morning when I said,
you were there for me that morning when I needed you,
Oh Lord, how much I needed you. And I added
that verse later as a memorial and a tribute to her.
So it is U my very special song that honors

(10:02):
the Lord and praises and worships him, and is a
memorial tribute for my mama.

Speaker 11 (10:10):
Amen and Kingdom. Saying do you believe in Jesus is
going further than asking if you believe that Christ Jesus exists,
but is asking do you believe who the Bible says
he is? And are you actually in relationship with him

(10:31):
and trusting him as your savior. Please understand, believing facts
is not the same as knowing the sacrifice of Jesus
as God incarnate. Do you know meaning his sacrifice on
the cross of Calvary? Have you repented of your sins?
Are you walking in the newness of life? Do you

(10:53):
trust and have a believing faith in him? In other words,
have you received his style? Do you declare his death
and resurrection as payment for the debt of sin in
your life? If so, then you have gone to the
next level from saying to declaring you believe. Kingdom. Believing

(11:18):
is truth and declares that you have tried Him for
yourself and declares not only have you seen, but you
know you know what God can do, meaning you have
gone from sin to forgiveness to salvation. Although He may
not do everything as we want every time, but you

(11:41):
trust that He's got you and has a greater plan
for your life. Sister Stevens, please tell the testimony and
share your story behind your song just Believe, Just Believe?

Speaker 13 (11:57):
Was I recorded that years ago when I was going
through depression and really waiting for the Lord to open
up bigger doors for me for you know, for my
music and ministry and uh, just to to be able
to do with what I love to do. And the

(12:17):
disbelief part was like I was like David, you know,
telling myself, trying trying to help myself saying just believe,
you know, keep on believing, just believe, and it helped
me and encouraged me. God gave me the words for
that song so that it can help others.

Speaker 11 (12:39):
Amen. A Sister Stephens, please share a testimony from your
own life where you went from the knowledge of Christ
to experiencing His power in your life.

Speaker 13 (12:53):
I started out singing R and B and pop and
gospel cover tunes, and when I was in churches, I
would be like the lead soloist over a lot of
different songs, and then some churches I would also be
guest soloists. I was singing one of the songs and

(13:16):
I just remember feeling the Holy Spirit over me and
it was like wow. You know, because I went to
a high school that was performing arts high school, so
I was taught excellence and professionalism, and you know, to
be able to show on stage, you know, how you
feel your music and everything. So I was taught all

(13:37):
the professional stuff. But this was the first time that
I experienced the Holy Spirit and it was like wow.
My eyes were closed and it was it was amazing.
And so when I get out and I do sing
for audiences, I'm always praising and worshiping and keeping eye
contact with the audience. I'm doing both.

Speaker 11 (14:00):
