Tanty Freeman II

My story of a journey into writing songs and music began through my involvement in a car accident in which I was rear ended. After waiting sometime that evening, the gentleman and I began talking while the state trooper checked our information. I learned from him that he was an Apostle and he learned that I was the minister of music for my church. About a month or so passed before I would see him again. It was on a Sunday morning that my life would be altered by a prophetic utterance coming from that Apostle. He walked in my home church with his family. They sat mid-ways in the congregation. During the visitors greeting, he stood and introduced himself and how he heard about the ministry. My pastor who is also my father invited him into the pulpit after learning of the office he walked in. Once asked if the Apostle had anything to say, he stood and spoke a word to the house. This word was in season and confirmation to the house. He then turned and looked at me and uttered these words, “You are going to write songs to the nations. It’s part of the office that you walk in. You are called to the nations.” This utterance changed my life and direction in which I was going. From that day forward it would be a journey and process of things I couldn’t imagine encountering. Although I had written a few songs in my earlier years, I viewed them as being a hobby rather than being called to do it. But this was different. I now had a desire to fulfill this in my life. The very first song I wrote after that day was a song, at the time I didn’t know that I wasn’t supposed to record. I began doing the ground work of scheduling studio time. The very first studio I went to I left with a sense of fulfillment only for the Lord to block that path.
