I remember singing &#8220;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=h77M8Nhj3sI&amp;list=RDh77M8Nhj3sI&amp;start_radio=1\">The Lord Be Magnified<\/a>&#8221; as a little five-year-old girl, all the way in Northern Nigeria. I think we must have had all or almost all his video tapes (yes, videos and audio cassettes were a thing\ud83d\ude02) in our home. I knew almost all his songs. I also particularly recall the Welcome Home album, where he shared the testimony of his sons returning to God. That stuck with me, perhaps because it was a personal testimony for him.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Fast forward to December 2024 at a crossover service, my family watched him minister live. It was such a blessing to see him. He mentioned that he had turned 80 years a few weeks prior and he was delighted to still sing and lead people in praise and worship. He sang quite a number of songs, including &#8220;God is so good&#8221; first in English and then in many other languages. It was such an unforgettable moment!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I pray for God&#8217;s comfort for Ron Kenoly&#8217;s family and the body of Christ, as we&#8217;ll miss him here. However, we&#8217;re grateful to God for the impactful life he lived. He is now with Jesus, but his songs remain with us and they&#8217;ll yet bless many more generations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Which of his songs are your favourites? Let&#8217;s know in the comments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>God&#8217;s blessings always,<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Dammy<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hello Amazing Reader, Today&#8217;s post is in honour of Ron Kenoly, who passed on to glory on February 3,2026.
