Ex-Katy Perry Backup Singer Trades It All For Jesus
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 13 июн 2024
- Tasha Layton is known for her Gospel-themed music, but the Christian singer's journey to faith-based music took some truly unique twists and turns. Layton, 41, told CBN News that her journey from singing backup for Katy Perry to embarking on her own quest into Christian music taught her a major lesson: the importance of "trusting God with every step." "Before I entered music to do my own music, there were a lot of years that I wasn't sure how God was going to work it out," she said. "I didn't understand why I was taking this path, or going in this direction, or how He was going to work it all together for His good."
But Layton said she now knows the Lord was weaving together a beautiful story - something she didn't understand at the time. Now, she's encouraging others to trust the Lord and know, "He's got it, and He is essentially carving the way if you are surrendering to Him." Layton said she continues leaning into trusting God to navigate Christian music, an industry that offers some unique challenges. "It's easy to get burned out," she said. "It's easy to let someone else try to tell you who you are. ... So, it's that continual lesson of trust."
And that lesson in trust came after Layton spent years touring the world with Perry. Layton had the chance to embark on a secular music career after but felt called to do something else entirely. "I was offered a deal on ... the secular side, and I felt so firmly that it wasn't what I was called to do," she said. "And there were compromises in that world. ... I wanted to connect people to God with my music, with my actions, with my team, with my integrity - and I didn't feel like I could fully do that with freedom, going that route."
Layton said it was an "easy decision" to turn down that offer and pursue Christian music instead - something she had prayed and dreamed about as a teenager.
"The cool famous venues, the cool private plane thing - I'd already done all that," Layton said. "And there's a reason Paul says, 'You can gain the world and lose your soul.'" Full-time ministry was always Layton's goal, so, while it might have seemed tough to say, "No" to potential fame and fortune in the secular space, doing so ushered her into what she believes is God's will for her life. "I'm so fulfilled," she said. "I'm standing in the fulfillment of prayers."

GOD IS OF MORE VALUE THAN ALL THE WORLDS RICHES.....😮😮
Don't be so stupid.
Her first song that I fell in love with is "Look what you've done".
God bless Ms. Tasha Layton.
Praise the Lord! I pray that Katy will come back to the Lord!
Amen.❤
Katy Perry used to be a believer?
She grew up in church, and was a gospel singer as a teenager, but her career never took off. Eventually she decided to sing secular music.
@@asonti Thats where the enemy loves to get his singers from..so many of them. She may have started there, but it doesnt mean she was a believer. "They went out from us because they were never with us"..but as long as Jesus hasnt returned she still has hope, they all do.
Yes, praying for her to return to Christ. Her parents were pastors and there’s a video were prophet Kim Clement prophesied to Katy P. at her parents’s church.
How outstanding and inspirational is this woman of Christ! To have the calling as a teenager, go to seminary, become a worship pastor, but get a taste of the 'secular ' world and return back to ministry - she is definitely walking with Jesus. 🙏🏻💕😊
One of the best channel for Christians. May God continue to replenish CBN News and give you an encounter that creates more conviction. Amen!✝️🙏❤️
Praise the Lord! She remained faithful to Jesus Christ!
God bless her and her loved ones in the Holy Name of Jesus Christ!✝️🙏❤️
Saw Tasha in concert last year. She is just so amazing! Sad, that Katy Perry came from parents who are pastors, and she's turned away from the beauty that faith can provide. Maybe someday her eye's will open like mine did. God bless Tasha for staying the course.
Nothing is worth losing your soul over for sure!! So proud of this lady
How awesome would it be if Katy Perry would come out of the darkness into the light - FULLY?!!!
I love Tasha Layton! I love Katy Perry!❤️💜💚
God Bless each and every one of you. Stay Vigilant and trust in Jesus, repent and you shall be saved.
We'll pray for Katy on coming back to God and she should singing music to honor and praising the Lord!
Katy needs to get out too. She needs to turn to Jesus and to Him alone. I'm praying for you Katy. You are conflicted and I see it.
I think she sold her soul to Lucifer for fame and she thinks she can’t get out of it and if she does she’ll lose her treasures here on earth or possibly even receive threats to herself and her family. Of course she can turn to Jesus and leave Lucifer behind. She’s deep into satanic worship, but definitely conflicted. I’ll pray for her too🙏🏻
amen!
You definitely chose the right path. God will bless you in many many ways. You go girl.
Amen Sister in Christ 🙏🙏🙏
❤✝️🛐 Trust in God in every situation with perfection. He loves you. ❤
I sure wish Katy would come back to Jesus!!! Let's all come together and pray 🙏
A beautiful person and a beautiful soul God bless her!
Good for her. Amen❤
Congratulations, Tasha Layton!!
God will bless your devoted commitment to Him as you're edifying to many people!!
🙏 ❤
Yeshua all the way

_She said, "It's so shallow". She's just lovely. Maranatha_
Everyone please pray & stand in agreement that I never go back to a mental hospital & never get hospitalized at a mental hospital ever again.
Okay I will pray for you and I also pray that you will believe the Gospel read in 1 Corinthians 15:1-4.
Also read the wonderful news in Ephesians 2:8-9 as it goes right along with the Gospel we read in 1 Corinthians 15:1-4.
God bless your heart and your ministry! Praise Jesus, Hallelujah
YES!!!!!! TO GOD BE ALL GLORY!!
Amen!!! As she said, that life was so shallow! It afforded her a decent living but in retrospect, it was of no good to her spiritually. Lovely testimony!!! Praise God Almighty!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Love your music Tasha! Thanks for sharing your talents here. God is so good!❤️🙏🏻
She needed more of the Lord 😢
Good Job.Eternity with God is the most important.
Just a few minutes ago, I was in my head about fixing to turn twenty-four in a few weeks. I was in my head about the fact that I plan on completely starting my life over at 24 and if that would work out, starting so late in life. I plan on just now starting to pursue the dreams that I've had for the longest time but never really applied myself and took action on. I am in total fear that I'm too old to start my life over and just now go after my dreams and that I've made too many bad decisions in my life. In that moment, that's when I believe God opened my eyes to see this video and click on it. I asked God to speak to me through this video, and I believe He did. The word that Tasha said in the video said that stuck out to me was SURRENDER. I'm going to surrender everything, start all over, write down my dreams and specific prayers and make them plain, and then, go for it and go all in with God, the pursuit of my dreams, and my self-improvement all around. Thank you for the video!
And be patient with yourself. It’s a marathon. You will never be sorry entrusting your life to Jesus. He will never let you go.

GoOD for you sweet child of God!!!
I’m so happy for her! God bless her!
Also, it was Jesus that said that, not Paul.
Good on her, she's got it all, but now focusing on how she can build others is what I hope she means.
Her story illustrates how fast you can leave God’s plan for your life and pursue whatever the world has for you.
She wants to keep her soul.
👍🏼👍🏼
Hope Perry.comes into this path.soon.
The brains of her group
😊💛😊💛🇨🇦
Beautiful woman inside ~ Where it counts!
Thank you for your kind compliments for her. May the Lord guide her and grow her in faith.
God will take you to places and in front of people that your checkbook can’t.
With out a doubt, she traded up. In the morning when I rise, give me Jesus.
Translation: She got married lol
Jesus can save anyone!
I traded the “Godfather” of Mississippi prison for God and now I’m so blessed! I’ll never go back 💯✅
What’s her name ?
Following God's plan for our lives is always more fulfilling. Yes, we may have persecutions and afflictions following God. However, we will always be more fulfilled. And Jesus promised that we will have MORE by forsaking our will for His. Mark 10:29-30 says, 29 “Truly I tell you,” Jesus replied, “no one who has left home or brothers or sisters or mother or father or children or fields for me and the gospel 30 will fail to receive a hundred times as much in this present age: homes, brothers, sisters, mothers, children, and fields-along with persecutions-and in the age to come eternal life." What God has for us is ALWAYS more than this world's temporary pleasures. I am very encouraged by her testimony.
Who is she
ONE WAY! ROMANS.10:13-17
13For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.
14How then shall they call on him in whom they have not believed? and how shall they believe in him of whom they have not heard? and how shall they hear without a preacher?
15And how shall they preach, except they be sent? as it is written, How beautiful are the feet of them that preach the gospel of peace, and bring glad tidings of good things!
16But they have not all obeyed the gospel. For Esaias saith, Lord, who hath believed our report?
17So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.
Halleluiah! Did she get a good deal or what?
More Pravda publications please! 😂
Matthew 16:26 “What good will it be for someone to gain the whole world, yet forfeit their soul? Or what can anyone give in exchange for their soul?
“
It was Jesus and not Paul who said that.
@rogerkreil - I have also noticed ! and also no mention of the name of Jesus Christ!!!
