Higher Authority

Don't Just Change... Transform!

About Me

After a performance Higher Authority was walking off the stage and a man in the crowd shouted to them “That is what heaven must sound like” what an awesome compliment considering their sound is an undeniably unique and a potent mixture of Love excitement joy and a passion for their heavenly father. Their sound takes you on an exciting journey, interweaving strong melodies and intricate harmonies with seamless fluidity, while constantly giving all glory to God. Higher Authority influences range from Boyz II Men, Mint Condition, Take 6, Cece Winans, Rascall Flatts, U2 and the list goes on In this day and age where most singing groups are “fitted” together the group Higher Authority was “born” together. Aside from having a true friendship that spans almost 2 decades theses women of God pray, fast and attend the same church. Higher Authority doesn’t believe in just warming the pews they are active members in their church Confirmed Word Faith Center and the powerful word that they receive there is one of the major inspirations behind each original song and lyric that they have written. The beginning years of the group were filled with “good clean love songs” and crazy names like “Shades of Soul” and a personal favorite “Venzimisty” which is all of the their names put together however it proved very difficult to pronounce. After a short break apart for growth and rebuilding they returned to each other with new dreams and a new vision. They made a unanimous decision to sing for Gods’ glory and He gave them a new name, "Higher Authority". When they began this journey they only had each other and what was in their hands - their voices. This left them with a great ear for harmony and an incredible knack and love for a cappella. “Most people are surprised when we tell then how long we have been together and we take no credit for this friendship as long as you keep God the center of everything no man can separate what he has put together no matter how hard they try”. “Our prayer is that you be blessed by the lyrics of our songs and allow them to become more then just words but also your confession don’t just change transform” -Higher Authority

Member Since: 9/7/2006
Band Members: Charity, Khristi, Vennetta, ZimikaMy Commitment as a Christian... I'm part of the fellowship of the unashamed. I have stepped over the line. The decision has been made. I'm a disciple of Jesus Christ. I won't look back, let up, slow down, back away, or be still. My past is redeemed, my present makes sense, my future is secure. I'm finished and done with low living, sight walking, small planning, smooth knees, colorless dreams, tamed visions, mundane talking, cheap living, and dwarfed goals. I no longer need pre-eminence (superiority), prosperity, position, promotions, appreciation, or popularity. I don't have to be right, first, tops, recognized, praised, regarded, or rewarded. I now live by faith, lean on His presence, walk by patience, lift by prayer, and labor by power. My face is set, my gait is fast, my goal is heaven, my road is narrow, my way rough, my companions few, my Guide reliable, my mission clear. I cannot be bought, deluded, or delayed. I will not flinch in the face of sacrifice, hesitate in the presence of the adversary, negotiate at the table of the enemy, or meander(wander) in the maze of mediocrity(weakness). I won't give up, shut up, let up, until I have stayed up, stored up, prayed up, paid up, preached up for the cause of Christ. I am a disciple of Jesus. I must go till He comes, give till I drop, preach till all know, and work till He stops me. And when He comes for His own, He will have no problem recognizing me--my banner will be clear!
