Content edit

Volver A Vivir is a track-by-track re-recording of Alive Again, performed in the Spanish language. Russell Evans describes "There's an atmosphere that electrifies your spirit when you come together with the people of God to put action to faith, and that's always been the hallmark of every recording we've done."[7] Legado is the group's third album in Spanish, following in the footsteps of the Dove Award-nominated recordings, Sé Quién Eres Tú and Nada Es Imposible.[8] This album is produced by Joth Hunt. Legado includes songs including: Pasión, Declaro Vida, ¡Profetizar! and Me Llamas Hermosa with worship leaders Joth Hunt, Rudy Nikkerud and Sam Evans.[9]

Release and promotion edit

The band Planetshakers on November 17, 2017 released their new single ¡Profetizar! on the radio.[10][11] The song was written by Planetshakers drummer Andy Harrison, the song is a bold statement of the authority God has given each of His Children to declare His Word and see the world transformed.[12] "My prayer for this song is that listening to it, and particularly singing it, these words inspire you to begin to prophesy about your situations, about your destiny, about your health or whatever situation you are going through. God has not called us to be victims of those things ... I want to encourage you to get up with the Word of God in your mouth. Take the authority that God has given you, start to testify about those situations and see how they change", says Harrison.[13] Planetshakers through their social networks announced the launch of their album in Spanish on November 24, 2017.[14] In the video posted on Facebook, Lucía Parker, a Christian worship leader Salvadoran, appears rehearsing songs in Spanish with members of the Planetshakers band.[15]
