International gospel music minister, BETHANY BOLA THANI finally premieres the eagerly anticipated new singles – LET IT OVERFLOW NOW and AMAZING GRACE.
She shares the inspiration behind both songs:
INSPIRATION BEHIND ‘LET IT OVERFLOW NOW’
The Lord purposely took me through some wilderness of dearth and reproach in ministry, for everything works together for good….0h how God seemed so far away! Then I heard His still, sweet, comforting, gentle voice said to me “When it seems like nothing is happening, wait; something is happening”. Then I said to Him, ‘Ok Daddy, if that be the case, let it overflow now!” Out of my despair and emptiness came LET IT OVERFLOW NOW! The Lord laid it strongly on my husband’s spirit that it was time for another project and with God’s backing, he sacrificially began and completed it. When the Lord decides to turn again the captivity of Zion, indeed it seems like a dream.
INSPIRATION BEHIND ‘AMAZING GRACE’
Amazing Grace is an outburst of personal EXPERIENCE, an amazing experience of an AMAZING GOD. It’s the summary of my life. I haven’t done anything to deserve His matchless love. His love is real. Peradventure you have the same experience, the song is for YOU. Perhaps you are yet to experience His love, this song is for you still. His love is real, His arms wide opened to receive you. Come as you are, in total surrender to Him.
The Lord gave me the song, Amazing Grace during the Easter period. I was consumed with a deep reflection of the agony the Lord went through for my sake. Oh, but for that blood that was shed! I was a total wretch, but He charted the course of my life. I’m where or who I am today but for His Grace! I wasn’t even supposed to be born! I happened by chance, a mistake…another story for another day. All my life is encapsulated in GRACE!
MY MESSAGE
No doubt, it’s a season of overflow, Overflow in everything good. For you reading this, it may seem like nothing is happening but see, something great is happening for you. That baby will come, you will have a quiver full like me. I waited for 6 years, then 3 pregnancies, 4 babies, I told God it’s enough.
You will overflow in good health, the God of the Overflow is visiting you with abundance of favor, joy, breakthroughs in Jesus name! Amen!

INSPIRATION BEHIND MY WORKS SO FAR – Having covenanted my life unto God right from my youth, I’ve always been passionate about living a praiseful and grateful life unto God – not minding the circumstances around me. I reflect more on what God has done, not on what He’s yet to do. All the three albums are replete with songs of praise & worship unto God Almighty.LIVING A LIFE OF IMPACT AND MY DESIRE
By the grace of God, and with the unflinching support of my husband, I am proudly a mother to not only my biological children but also to several spiritual children who are daily impacted positively by the ministry God has committed into my hands. However, we haven’t even started at all. In the nearest future, we hope to build a monumental and an all-encompassing Music Academy which will produce fully groomed professional musicians in every sense of the word.
MY DESIRE IS TO SEE TRUE WORSHIP EVERYWHERE, ALL THE TIME! GOD IS ALWAYS SEEKING FOR TRUE WORSHIPPERS!
