Ep. 29 -  Finding the Song of the Lord in the Sound of the People
Oct 16 2023
Ep. 29 - Finding the Song of the Lord in the Sound of the People
Have you heard the terms “the sound of revival” or a church trying to “find their own sound?” These phrases can be exciting, but they can also be confusing! Every church and community has their own unique sound that the Lord wants them to capture and release. But many don't recognize this is the case and therefore don't explore the authentic sound of their own community. The ones that go on a quest to find this, impact communities in a transformational way, and even impact nations.   In this episode, I talk about the significance and beauty of tuning into the song of the Lord in the sound of the people. This looks different in every community. Let's learn to love singing global worship songs, but not at the expense of the unique sound that is yearning to rise up in our gatherings!   By understanding and harnessing the power of the local, unique sound, we can create meaningful and impactful worship that carries the influence and power of Heaven.   Special thanks to Dan McCollam, our Sounds of the Nations Founder who has instilled this deep, life changing truth in us. Seeing this activated in nations is a joy!   Here’s What We Discussed:   [00:01] The Lord’s Unique Song for Our Communities & The Importance of the Global and Local Sound [06:07] How to Discover Your Community Sound & 4 Different Types of Songs [13:10] Songs of Petition: Asking the Lord for Personal or Communal Desires [17:00] Songs of Declaration: Proclaiming Truths About God [20:33] Songs of Invocation: Encouragement to engage in actions of praise [23:19] Songs of Adoration: Worshiping and Adoring God for Who He is [25:59] Closing Up!  Connect with Roma!

Ep. 28 -  Theology Vs Encounter - How Do We Find Balance?
Oct 9 2023
Ep. 28 - Theology Vs Encounter - How Do We Find Balance?
“Which is more important, Theology or Encounter?” is a question I often get asked.     In this episode, we answer exactly that! Does encountering and experiencing God supersede the theology of scripture? We can often see churches swing on either side of the pendulum, but what if I told you that theology and encounter are meant to work together to experience the fullness of God and all He has for His people? In this episode, we discuss why, without truth, our experiences won’t have a foundation to stand firm upon and how experiences are the fruit of our relationship with God.   Here’s What We Discussed:   [00:01] Should I Choose Between Theology vs.Encounter? It’s Meant to Be a Marriage!    [02:32] The Importance of Theology: Worshiping in Spirit and Truth  [11:20] Why Spiritual Experience is Just as Important as Theology – Experience Shows Proof of a Relationship [17:09] Experiencing the Full Gift of Encounter and Theology Connect with Roma!

Ep. 27 - Daniel Hagen and Awakening Music: The Sound of a Global Movement
Sep 25 2023
Ep. 27 - Daniel Hagen and Awakening Music: The Sound of a Global Movement
From rock N' roll to spearheading a global revival movement, the journey of my dear friend Daniel Hagen stands as a testament to the transformative power of Jesus. In our conversation, Dan and I talk about the journey of staying grounded and intimate with Jesus while leading a huge worship platform, the song that the world so desperately needs to hear, and how we worshipers are being called to the battleground. All this and so much more!   In 2003, Daniel Hagen radically surrendered his life to Jesus Christ in a powerful encounter that would shake up his world of sex, drugs, and rock ‘n’ roll. His heart was overrun with the love of God, and his songs began to overflow with his affection for the Father.   Daniel’s rock band, The Hollows, was on the verge of scoring a six-figure record deal. His love for Jesus compelled him to walk away from the life of fame and fortune and pursue knowing the Father more and making Him known to the nations.   As he fell more in love with Jesus, He began to lead teams of everyday believers out onto the streets, where they would preach the gospel and demonstrate God’s love through signs & wonders.    Daniel is the Associate Director of Awakening Australia with Ben Fitzgerald, and is the leader of Awakening Music. Awakening is now a global movement, and their events are joined by thousands from all over the world with one purpose – the nations for Jesus!    Daniel and Chelsea are happily married with four children and are the senior ministers of Fire Church ministries. Today, Daniel and Chelsea Hagen plant and oversee Fire Churches in Queensland and Victoria.    Here’s What We Discussed:   [00:01] Rock and Roll to Revival: Daniel Hagen's Journey from The Hollow to Awakening Music [03:56] How Awakening Music Stays Grounded As a Global Worship Movement [07:30] The Devil Tried to Silence Worship During Covid  [15:13] Passing the Baton to Vincent Noah Lang – Raising Up the Next Gen of Worshipers  [21:47] Character before Talent – How Fire Church Discerns Choosing Their Worship Teams [24:35] Revival in Nürnberg, Why Prayer is the Engine Room of Revival, and Serving God in the Mountains and Valleys  [34:03] Dealing with Burnout in Worship Teams: What Causes It and What to Do Instead  [36:40] What Sound Does the World Need to Hear?    WATCH: Awakening Europe Conference Nürnberg → https://youtu.be/lhhWy11qxpE?si=JD_6qLY3tEpT2oVr Book Mentioned: No Compromise: The Life Story of Keith Green   Connect With Daniel  Visit his website —> https://www.danielhagenministries.com/daniel-hagen Connect on Instagram, Facebook, YouTube   Connect with Roma!

Ep. 26 - Can You Move With The Holy Spirit On a Timeframe?
Sep 18 2023
Ep. 26 - Can You Move With The Holy Spirit On a Timeframe?
Can you genuinely connect with the Holy Spirit despite time limitations?   In today's episode, I delve into this topic, drawing from a session I led for our worship team at our East Location of NEUMA Church . With our ongoing revival, our worship can spontaneously overflow. This leads to logistical challenges. We don't want to put pressure on our teams, especially with back-to-back services, Kids' Church, scheduling, and other programs - so how do we be sensitive to both them AND move with Holy Spirit?   Tune in as I share some practical tips on moving with the Holy Spirit during our services. I talk about the importance of knowing Him, meditating on scripture, and letting go of frustrations. I also address the role of the worship team and the power of praise in creating an atmosphere of intimacy with the Father. Get ready for a powerful Sunday!   Here’s What We Discussed:   [00:01] Introducing How to Balance Worship and Time Constraints [02:01] How to Go With the Ghost While Being Mindful of Time Frames [05:44] Ask the Lord for a Scripture for Sunday and Meditate On It All Week  [08:24] Do the Heart Work: Deal With The Offense, Frustration, or Unforgiveness in Your Heart  [10:14] Choose Less Songs and Allow the Lord to Move in Them   [11:44] What to Do When the Congregation Doesn't Engage [14:00] Praise is IMPORTANT in this Season Connect with Roma!

In a world dominated by flashy productions and market-driven trends, there is a global movement of God calling for genuine worshipers who will rise above the superficial and embrace the true essence of worship.   Worship is more than a genre – It’s meant to be an expression that flows from the depths of the secret place, untouched by the commercial trappings of the industry.    My guest today has been hugely influential in my ministry as a worshipper and songwriter, and I can't wait for you to listen to the wisdom he shares in my latest podcast episode. Dan McCollam is known for his roles in co-founding Bethel School of the Prophets and founding Prophetic Company. He is also the visionary behind "Sounds of the Nations," a missional organization that has trained thousands worldwide to discover and release their unique and authentic sounds in worship.  In this episode, we delve into the significance of original songs for local churches and cities. While singing global worship songs is powerful, it is equally important to honour the unique revelation of Jesus within your local context.    Here’s What We Discussed:   [02:37] From rock bands to prophetic worship: The birth of Sounds of the Nations [09:08] God is looking for those who worship in spirit and truth [13:23] What is the New Sound?

He has a passion for intimacy with God and a heart to see the Body of Christ equipped in all aspects of prophecy, worship, and voice.   Rob is senior pastor at My Church Windsor in the UK. He is a member of the British Isles Council of Prophets, Global Prophetic Alliance, and European Prophetic Council, and has been called by God to sing prophetic words over nations, spheres of influence, churches, and individuals.

Ep. 12 Contend, Cultivate, Character - What is God wanting from Worship Leaders right now?
Feb 5 2023
Ep. 12 Contend, Cultivate, Character - What is God wanting from Worship Leaders right now?
In this new podcast episode, I share my sensings of what the Lord is highlighting for our times of worship right now.   Is a worship team merely a place where people can use their talents and feel loved? ….Or do we need to revisit the conversation?   Yes, discipleship is important and primary, but I believe how we do that while developing a home for holiness on our platforms will be of primary importance in developing a revival culture that carries purity in the new season of what the Lord is doing right now.   In this episode I cover: What does revival worship sound like?How do we contend and cultivate the sound of Heaven for the seasons we find ourselves in?What is the ‘character’ of your house and why is it important? I pray it will inspire a greater passion within you to press in for more of Him in you as you worship in your communities!   Connect with Roma!

Ep. 11 My Encounters With Jesus In Worship
Oct 18 2022
Ep. 11 My Encounters With Jesus In Worship
The first time I ever encountered Jesus was in worship.    In this episode, I share 3 pivotal encounters I have had with the Lord that have impacted me profoundly.   I don’t normally share such personal stories, but I felt a strong prompt from the Lord to unpack these stories with you.     I share a time I was leading Indescribable by Chris Tomlin and receiving an internal vision of being in the throne room that has greatly impacted me...   Another time I was leading Rain Down by Martin Smith when a physical manifestation took place that was completely unexpected and created a course correction in my ministry….   Most importantly, I hope it inspires you to hunger after his presence so that he can meet you in ways that will not only bless you but also transform you! We want to encounter God, but he also wants to encounter us!   "Genuine spiritual knowledge lies not in wonderful and mysterious thoughts but in actual spiritual experience through union of the believer’s life with truth".

Ep. 09 My Raw Process – 3 Ways To Sing The Prophetic Song
In this episode of Release the Sound – A Podcast on Prophetic Worship, I show you my raw process of stepping into a prophetic flow to sing spontaneously. I cover the different ways you can do this such as singing what you see in the spirit, singing from scripture, and singing from prophetic words.   What we discuss:  [00:57] My Raw Process – It’s Not Gonna Be Perfect [01:37] Singing What You See In The Spirit [14:15] Singing From Scripture [24:02] Singing From Prophetic Words Key Quotes:    “I'd rather step out and be wrong than never step out and be right.” - Roma Waterman    “This place of authenticity, this place of vulnerability is really important. You don't have to be perfect. You just have to open your mouth and sing the song of the Lord.” - Roma Waterman    “Sometimes that scripture that's been weighing on our heart, that's been with us for the whole week, is not simply just for us. Sometimes that’s the Lord saying, ‘Hey, there’s something that needs to be sung out here.’” - Roma Waterman     “We all have our reasons for not releasing [a song], but in the end, I just feel this urgency that the Lord is saying, ‘My voice needs to resound amongst the nations.’ So sometimes you just have to step out in authenticity and vulnerability and get the Word out.” - Roma Waterman   Resources Mentioned: Support the Show!
