FORMER MP JOYCE LAY NOW A GOSPEL MUSICIAN

Former Taita Taveta woman representative Joyce Wanjala Lay has launched her new career as a gospel artiste.

She made the big announcement while launching her new worship single Najua Wewe ni Bwana, “As I celebrate my birthday on tomorrow, there is no better gift of me to the world than revealing my purpose and the will of God for my life. To minister to the nations through worship music. I present to you my first single worship song “Najua Wewe ni Bwana” and this is my big reveal!”

Though she has only released one song, she says we should expect 30 plus songs to go, “This song was revealed in my heart in October 2017. A lot was happening then. I wasn’t sure what the future had in store for me. There was so much confusion and anxiety, yet in the middle of all this the Spirit of God was busy working something in me. I wasn’t keen enough to understand it. So, I recorded the song in my phone and forgot about it.

I took the decision to record music in April this year. This is after getting a clear message that the songs are not for me to keep but for God’s glory to be revealed in the World. It’s amazing because it wasn’t only one song but a second song and a third, fourth, fifth up-to 32 songs were dropped into my heart through the Spirit of God.”

The former MP says she would wake up in the middle of the night and start singing, “I would wake up in the middle of the night with a new song and just start singing. At some point I couldn’t get much sleep because of the fire burning inside my belly. Most nights were spent in my prayer room, worship and fellowship with God.

Sometimes I would sing the whole night. I spent time to seek God’s direction on this and I know that this is truly for His glory and not for entertainment. He will pour out His Spirit in a way that we have never experienced before. He is God. He doesn’t not lie!”
