Whitney Houston did not always sing a song the same way all of the time. (Singing) It’s the things that Whitney Houston said and the things she didn’t say. That was just an example of my own how Whitney would sometimes change up in singing songs. Houston herself was and is a hit record. The sound of Whitney can affect the mind and the hearing. She could sing words so powerfully and could really reach her audience with a song.

Whitney would sing a song entitled, “I Believe In You and Me”. Sometimes she would sing a song the way she did on record, and sometimes she would do it differently. That was my point at the beginning of the podcast. It never turned her audience away. They enjoyed every bit of what Whitney had to give.

Anything that Whitney would sing would stay with you. She used so much expression and emotion in her voice. Houston made you feel the words she was singing to you with a real true voice. It was left somehow inside of you. If you hear a tune by her now, it would probably play back in your mind most of the day. Why is that so? It’s like a spiritual thing about music and Whitney Houston made music kind of spiritual that some of the world wanted to reject.

The spiritual and good things come from God. Whitney often talked about the church and God and she had something spiritual inside. That Something that was spiritual inside of her stayed with her and never left her. When she went into the world of entertainment, she carried it with her. According to 1 Cor. 2:14 But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God, for they are foolishness unto him; neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned.

Whitney was not like the others. The demons that she fought worked hard to take her gift from her.
