Since day one, I started my music career, If I go to an interview and they ask me if I charge, I boldly tell them yes.
The dress you wear, you can’t repeat it. It is a job we do to glory the name of God. You saw after performing right now on this show, I had to go back and apply makeup again.
And the word of God says that the person who works for God make make money from it.
The dress you are wearing now, you can’t repeat it. Every worker takes salary from their bosses. As a christian, if a pastor calls me to perform, I charge because God bless you is not enough.

Jesus sent you to set make-up as a boundary to represent him; a gospel musician is not called to play concerts and charge; let's find God well.

Music is business but Ministry is not. Paul the Apostle emphasises the need for ministers of the gospel to be taken care of (1 Corinthians 9:9.. We mustn’t muzzle the ox that treads the corn. When someone comes in and ministers to you, it is a good, sound and scriptural practice to bless them according to your capacity and ability as a ministry. You don’t have to charge if the culture of honour is understood by whoever invites you.
