“There is no doubt that William Murphy, III was born to worship,” says Bishop Paul S. Morton. “His life is evident of the special calling and anointing that God has on his life. He has not only caused me to go to deeper depths in my time of worship, but he has blessed the lives of so many across the globe.”
Murphy continues in his calling, continues to bless people around the globe, with GOD CHASER – which Murphy says is a collection of prophetic songs, known in the church as “songs of the Lord.” “The essence of my ministry, my calling, is to usher people into the presence of the Lord in a way so powerful that they become true God chasers. That is the essence of my life. So the CD is a collection of prophetic songs that came to us in prayer and in times of worship.”
“I really believe that as people embrace the music and embrace the prophetic message in these songs, people’s lives are going to take a shift, and it’s going to help bring people into new seasons,” says Murphy.
