That is what Mandisa was about praising the good Lord and gracious and greatful. So thrilled to see Idol pay tribute to such a wonderful inspiring soul. RIP ❤
@@joiisler8986 Honoring and worshiping Jesus as a way to honor the legacy of a believer is the ultimate way to honor their life. Mandisa made it known that any platform she had was to only and always shine light to Jesus. I wouldn't expect anything else from friends that are fellow believers!
Amen and yes ma'am I just wish we could have got in there because she was crying out in her own way. Seeking the light of God from a chiropractor with colored glasses was a sign something was off. I am not talking about not seeing God in everything, I am talking about her search and cry and confirmation she was looking for! We must be careful to reach out before it gets too far along this path. Just because she had that big voice and praise didn't mean she did need help, too. I hope she dancing now in the Lord's presence knowing that He loves you so. I also pray a friend or family member adopts your cat. Amen! Thank you for your beautiful light and praise. Ww and I will miss you and your light because you didn't hide it or put it underneath the table. Amen God bless 🙌 your friends and family.
They could have done better by allowing them to actually sing one of her songs. Most of the audience is not familiar with her own songs, I feel this was a missed opportunity...
God has a way! Mandisa was criticized after singing this song and left the show early in the top 10 finishing 9th. Now Mandisa is honored with this song being shouted at the finals!
We don't need anyone on this earth to make Jesus "mainstream" for us. Jesus never sought to be "mainstream". Jesus' mission was to be God made in flesh, to reach you and me directly. Jesus said in Matthew 6:6-7 (NIV) "6 But when you pray, go into your room, close the door and pray to your Father, who is unseen. Then your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you. 7 And when you pray, do not keep on babbling like pagans, for they think they will be heard because of their many words." If Jesus is your Lord and Savior, then that's all that matters. You matter to Jesus, that's why he died for you sins, beloved.
@@luv2467 From Danny’s response, I got the impression that she spurred people along and inspired and encouraged them (including, but not limited to, building them up in the faith). Certainly, that is a special way to be remembered, and it seemed to define the bond that Danny had with her.
So great to see these idols together Colton Dixon, Danny Gokey and Melinda Doolittle! She was a great friend to Mandisa for over 20 years! Beautifully done! Rest in Heaven Mandisa! ❤️
She's not in heaven according to Scriptures. She's in the grave awaiting resurrection according to 1 Thessalonians 4:16-17. The dead know nothing according to Ecclesiastes 9:5.
Absolutely LOVED this!! This trio has such passion, chemistry, and camaraderie. Though the reason for this tribute performance was sad, witnessing this worship on the American Idol stage was so powerful!! What a way to honor Mandisa and the love for the Lord that she exuded!!
I remember her singing this song. I believe this is the song that everyone voted her off for. Look how many years later it's back. I'm so glad Mandisa was bold enough to share her faith and this song.
I agree with you. I remember Mandisa unashamedly pouring out her love for the Lord, and exuding so much joy! She did not get voted out after performing this song; she was eliminated the next week after she sang Any Man of Mine for country week (I think the song choice got her, unfortunately). They could not have chosen a more fitting way of honoring Mandisa and her memory, and Melinda, Danny, and Colton had such special relationships and sister/brotherhoods in Christ with Mandisa, to be treasured forever.
I always said if I met Mandisa I would immediately give her a big hug. She had the sweetest spirit that shined through everything she did, and I admire her sharing her struggles and growth publicly. I head this song on the radio the other day and started crying. The shackles are off Mandisa's feet and she is singing Jesus's praise in heaven!
Our BEAUTIFUL, Sweet, & Beloved Angel Mandisa is smiling down from Heaven. You three definitely made her, & so many of Us who Love her PROUD!! Mandisa is singing in "The Angels Choir!!" 💜💜
@@doodlepops707 The Bible says, to be absent from the body is to be present with the Lord. In His presence, to be there with Him. Whether that present is in heaven or another dimension she is with Him! If that's heaven so be it!

RIP Mandisa! Overcomer was popular at a time in my life when I really needed to hear that song. It was one of the things that brought me out of a deep, dark depression and into the Light. Thank you, my sister in Christ❣️
I saw Colton Dixon 3 years ago, when he was touring with Danny Gokey. It was a praise fest, for sure! Danny was on the platform, preaching and praising. It didn't seem like a concert. There was a special anointing in that place. About Mandisa: What a beautiful woman of God. Her love for people and her Savior was evident. She is missed, but those who are in Christ Jesus will see her again.
This is awesome! I loved Mandisa and her music! We lost a really talented woman of God. Thank you American Idol for acknowledging such a powerful message and sharing the Christian faith amongest your viewers 🙌🙏 Rest IN Peace Mandisa. Fly with the Angels as you are now one.
So thankful to Ryan Seacrest and American Idol for paying tribute to Mandisa, and for Melinda, Danny, and Colton with that special performance! Colton said it best that our loss is Heaven’s gain!
I just saw Danny Gokey in concert recently. He's an absolute worship leader! Those poor worldly people in the audience don't know what to do with this performance
I swear Melinda gets more and more beautiful as she ages. And her talent and soul never faded. Im a big fan of Colton since s10 when he got cut and s11 and Danny too in s8. Anyways, Rest in heaven Mandisa.
Colton Dixon: "Yeah I think that song sums up her life. I think she came in praising, I think she left praising.......our lost is Heaven's gain! " What a respond! Love it! ❤
Even though I lost my faith, I still really loved Mandisa. Her voice was absolutely brilliant and she really was a star amd deserved everything she got. She inspired so many people. If there really is a heaven, then I know shes up there singing for Jesus.
I was able to spend some time with her during a luncheon at a Women of Faith Conference in Las Vegas. She was the sweetest person and so full of joy. She was sharing a little bit about what happened when she auditioned for idol and how she truly forgave Simon for what he said about her weight. She mentioned something about how even though she forgave him, the words pierced through her heart. I don't think that was her exact words, but that was the gest of what she was saying. She struggled with her weight and I could only hope to be the kind of person she was and she loved the Lord. Even though she had her struggles like all mankind does she put her faith is God 100%. It was easy to see how much those she was performing with loved her and she was there for others like they were there for her behind the scenes. She was a couple tables over from where I was sitting and for me I was so excited since I went to the conference for the most part because she was going to be there. Mandisa's smile and laugh was contagious. I can only imagine how awesome it would have been for those that was close to her and performing with her. When her song Overcomer came out, it spoke to my heart in so many ways since I was going through a lot at the time.
What a great tribute honoring Mandisa. Three wonderful artist. Melinda will always be one of my very top level favorites! This is the song that Simon told Mandisa he 'just didn't get it'. Yet, years later here we are. Wonder if he gets it now?
Mandisa has inspired me.... Love this tribute & song. I just want to praise Him! All praise to Jesus. Life on earth is temporary for sure, & we are not certain to live until old age. That's why we're urged to 'set your heart on things above." Live like you want to live on the day you meet Jesus.
I remember watching s6 and being obsessed with Melinda. Her voice just makes me feel things and I see why Simon liked her so much... A well deserved friend for Mandisa
I hope Mandisa knew how much she is loved. Watched her vlog during the pandemic and she is such a lovely person with a kind heart. Rest in Heaven Mandisa. 🙏🏽💕
Season 5 of Idol Mandisa sang this very song and Simon wasn't very much impressed. Today same song was sang and it's a massive blessing to most of not all the audience 🕺🕺🕺
Thank you. I watched Idol alot but not since Randy, Paula, Simon, and Ryan left. I was wondering why they sang Mary Mary's (Erica Campbell & her sister's) song vs. one of Mandisa's song. I do recall Mandisa & Simon having a conversation about her weight & show business. She used tht great smile of hers & told Simon she would be alright (best of my recollection). Thts when I fell in ❤ with her. So sad😥 but Jesus won.
Praise God, heavens choir as another attendee! Can't wait to sing with her. Thanks to each one of you beautiful people for standing up for God, and declaring Jesus Lord and Saviour! He is waiting for each one of us, choose Jesus! Even when you feel like you can't
I didn’t know we lost her my prayers go out to her family and everyone who loves her and those 4 are who introduced me to praise and worship music love them and love how much they love God 🙌🏼🙏🏼
You can tell 100% Danny and Colton was emotional they didn’t do as good as they would’ve done and I fully understand that because they lost their best friend and Idk it’s just something about Melinda that brings me the spirit of Mandisa so much and I believe she passed away and went into her spirit it reminds me of her so much great job so many memories I was planning on going to her next concert whenever she came to Jax but I never got the chance to but it’s never the last time I will get it I will be watching her perform whenever I see her upstairs!
Omg I haven’t really watched Idol for many years, but I totally ate up the seasons with all of these folks. Great seeing them back despite the sad circumstances.

So very sad😢
