It’s been a minute (too much of one), but we’re going to hold up Eric & Anson Dawkins, better known as Dawkins & Dawkins, in prayer this week!
After taking a ten-year hiatus, the brother duo that helped shaped the sound of contemporary/urban gospel music, has returned to the gospel scene in full force this year. After announcing that they had signed with Light Records at the end of 2010, the duo performed at the BMI Trailblazers Awards in January. They released their first single, “Get Down,” this Spring and their new album, titled From Now On, hits stores on July 26. It’s a busy schedule, so let’s lift them up, cool?
Father, thank You for the music ministry of Eric and Anson Dawkins. Thank You for gifting them to write and record music that has blessed many, over several decades. Thank You for the platform that You’ve given them, and for the weight that it carries.
Lord, I pray for Eric and Anson– that they would be equipped and strengthened in their careers, especially for the remainder of this year. With their album coming out, I pray that You would protect them from anything that would serve to distract them from their purpose. I pray against negative influences, discouragement, pride, anxiety, doubt, fear… I pray that You would make them confident in this area.
And I ask You, God, to bless their individual endeavors, too. As they devote their time and energy to the duo artistry, please preserve their individual goals and lives. Bless their families and relationships, keeping them safe and secure.
And beyond their artistry, I pray that You would continue to strengthen the bonds of their brotherhood. I pray that they will continue to grow together, grow closer, holding each other accountable and pouring into one another in a way that glorifies You. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.
Amen! Okay, join me in praying for our brothers– Eric and Anson Dawkins– by posting your prayer in the comment section below!
