'You are 50, 60. You wanted to start. Pick it back up'. Amen. Hallelujah ❤

Amen. 'What you have to deliver is enough. No one is going to deliver it like you'.

Jamal you dont understand how inspirational you are to us 🔥

I have all the DVD’s Jamal, and I live in the Uk! I used to order them and pay tax again because it was coming in from the US. But let me tell you, those DVDs gave me wings! It was you and Jermaine Griggs (Hear & Play ) that made becoming a gospel musician possible. And for that my friend, I will forever be grateful 😊🙏🏾🔥🇬🇧

Never a wrong time to hear this message. Thanks as always!

Andre Crouch told me his Dad prayed over him when the musician at his church quit. The next Sunday he started playing. Andre was a rare prodigy! Most will not start playing that well almost immediately. Most of us will have to practice, practice, practice! Thanks for the good advice Jamal.

This is so timely! We think the worst about the particular styles that we have. Growing up, I was the dude that got up when the big names came in and surrendered to them. In church if you don’t play like everyone else, they tend to frown on you. Thank God for Jesus. I honed in on the strengths I had and not the weaknesses. I was good at sequencing the songs as good as the originals and maybe adding a wrinkle or 2. Then I was called demo man 😂😂😂. The moral of this story is, just do you. People will criticize or compare you with who they think is nice but God has made us diverse. Embrace it. Love and Blessings!

Man, Jamal. Thank you so MUCH for this, brother. For showing your not-perfect self, for all the amazing GM stuff, and all of your work in the world. Yeah man.

Thank you, Jamal. Thank you for this.

Wow!!! I really needed this!!!!!!!!! As a church musician I have dealt with intimidation in the church and from other musicians…both perceived in my own mind and real things being told to me. And as a woman in the mix it’s been sooooo hard. I’ve been in churches with musicians whose ego was so big that I didn’t even want to play. It all felt like I was always on display and that what I genuinely wanted to do was under scrutiny. I still struggle with playing at church. I have thoughts like am I enough? Is it awkward? I hate that! I have struggled with the balance of learning the song and playing with excellence versus overthinking stuff and freaking out bc u don’t sound exactly like whomever. I wish I were more confident. But I’m not giving up since this is what God called me to do. Thank you for this.

Wow. I am also a female keyboardist and practically everything you have said is the same with me! However, I won’t give up, as I too believe that it is what I have been called by God to do. Besides, I love it too much. I will be praying for you sis…Let’s keep going!

Man this one hit home. Im all too familiar with having got embarrassed behind the keyboard in church. One particular moment I had that was such a very embarrassing and disheartening moment pushed me into how I play today. Even though I had to go through that horrible moment, over time I looked at it as a blessing in disguise because getting past the embarrassment actually gave me courage and freedom, and who would not want that ! Thank you Jamal !

As a keys player for about 20 years (23 as a church musician all together), it has taken me sooooo long to get this! I am finally at a point in which I am confident in who I am as a musician. I have taken time over the last 2+ years to grow as a keys player, but within this time too, I have also taken time to become more confident in my style and approach. I continue to grow as a musician adding more components to my playing, but I’m also not trying to be like any other musician.

Thanks big bro! ✊🏾

Man I needed to hear this. I never think I’m good enough I don’t know enough bass riffs or I don’t know enough scales. often the ppl that know more then me that can be intimidating yet I get calls I’m always called good by others but I never see it in me

I needed to hear this, very timely message, thanks

God Bless you Jamal😢 I’ve struggled with this my entire life as a musician in church.. always comparing myself to other church musicians and stepping away because of it. I let go of what God placed in my hands saying well it’s no longer in style (sax). It’s not approved by all the “A lister” musicians. I forgot that God gave me my gift and no one else. Thank you for such a wonderful message. Blessings upon you and your family in Jesus Name🙏

Thank you for this encouragement. It helped me a lot ❤. God bless you!

bro!!!!! OMG!!! this hit home. I suffer from performance anxiety too, and I've been playing for 40 years. This really helped me.

Yes sir…that’s what it’s all about!

Thank you for such a lesson💥. The parable of the talents just taught me to be grateful for what God has given you and multiplying it to greater value day by day. Every musician has a different and unique approach(technique) in music which is special in the industry 👏.

Yes sir….thanks so much for being a supporter of the channel.

Thank you. “What God gave you is enough!”

love you so much brother - God bless you for the encouragement

I Just had a discouraging situation last night playing the keys, I had performance anxiety because I was playing for a convention for the first time and I was fumbling at times, this was very encouraging, I haven’t even looked at your teaching material, but you got my like and subscription off of this alone, thank you and God bless you sir

What an inspiring testimony...I'm encouraged.

THANK YOU!

Thank You

Jamal, thank you for helping musicians so much

This was so timely and encouraging, thank you!!

Very encouraging man. Love from Trinidad 🇹🇹

Great video message thank you so for those words that God have you say. Very very inspirational. God Bless

Well said, sir. This occurred to me over the weekend when I was watching a Matteo Mancuso video of him blasting all over Giant Steps. The glory is in our differences; the world is better because Matteo is jamming in it.

Good message...gotta start somewhere. Many of my favorite artists arent the best singers yet their unique voices & melodies make them irreplaceable.

u are a blessing !

GOD bless you jamal i really admire your playing

Hi Jamal, I still have the Tritones DVDs Thanks you for the encouragement. And these are pearls of wisdom.

Great message! Took time for me to understand this and be confident in my own ability and gift. God's purpose is tailored for each of us INDIVIDUALLY.

You have no clue how much of a blessing you been to me personally throughout the last 12+years. This video and the musician depression video was right on time. Question: Do you have any GM shirts for sale?

Thanks for the moral boost. I'm in that very predicament now

Thank you for this!! 🙏🏾❤️💯

I needed this. Thank you bro. 💪🏿

Thank you for always sharing and caring. One thing that always helped and continues to help me is acknowledging that the Bible says for us not to covet. I don't want to be like someone else. I might learn from others but I'll try to incorporate it to a style that is unique. It's tough when others look down on you but we are playing for God first. If He is pleased, then all is beyond good.

Thank You Mr. Hart well for this message and testimony I used to release music as a singer but went through some things and life happened as well etc. so I backed away from that side of music now I just release beat tapes and sound packs sometimes Ill sing most days I wont I still love music I just do it a different way now but God did give me a huge accomplishment recently and watching this as well just reminds to keep making music I love to create somebody gone feel it. God bless your business in Jesus name

Amazing vid and not what I expected. Thank you for sharing with us

THIS IS ALL FACTS! Thanks Jamal for all your VST's, music knowledge, and wisdom that you've shared with us!😎

It been more than ten years following you bro And you have been an inspiration to me especially in the area of worship Keep doing what you do ❤

Loved the parable!

Thanks for this video, Bro. I can definitely empathize with you. I was that same weirdo in my town. I keep on improving, but what God gave me was still enough. There are men and women here who play far better than I, but I have no problem sitting behind them and playing. I just continue to do what God gave ME and keep it moving while continue to grow.

Thanks a lot for this testimony !

I’m 49 years old. Gave up drumming for 10 years. Started playing bass guitar as a hobby. I’m that guy that buried the talent God gave me. Although I’m just playing bass guitar as a hobby… im doing it unto the Lord the best I can. Guys, don’t be the guy that buried your talent. You will regret it like you will not believe. I never played gospel music but I think this topic apply to all musicians.

Very encouraging... been playing for many years... very little at church or church functions... self taught and don't read music but God gave me a gift and i haven't used it enough for Him... possibly because of some kind of pride - in the show off sense... another issue I have now is that most of the music I hear churches play either doesn't align with scripture to me or the ministry behind it seems sketchy to me... please keep me in prayer... God bless you all

I need this video

Much Love My Brother 💯 I've always wanted to play Gospel I've always Loved old school Soul Music. Its been and obsession and a inspiration for me since i was young. Ive always wanted to play like Stevie Wonder or Prince or some musician in a 70s funk band or keys like James Cleveland. I didn't practice as much as I should And I still don't I get discouraged I get discouraged when I don't sound like my idols Well I'm 47 now I have 25 synth including a Wurlitzer and a fender Rhodes I practice every day and thanks to your message I will not get discouraged because I don't sound like my idols This is a much needed message. Thanks for the message bro God bless Greetings from Texas 💯
