‘Yes And Amen’  is a new Yoruba & English praise song by Nigerian Gospel singer, songwriter and award winning recording artiste,  Onabajo Olawale  popularly known as  ‘Ola’ . The promises of God are not “yes” then “no”, they’re not “I don’t know” or “Maybe so” instead they are “Yes!” Jesus said in Revelation 1:14 that He is the Amen, the faithful and true witness, and the beginning of the creation of God. Jesus is the Amen! Amen means “So be it. Amen means “It’s already done.” God is looking for someone who will say “yes” to His will, His way and to every situation. In Ezekiel  22:30, God says “And I sought for a man among them, that should make up the hedge, and stand in the gap before me for the land; but I found none. Oh Lord I yield unto you, even as I stand unto your Words and Promises over my Life. – Ola.
