This music video is a reminder that we can never stop praying and that God is always here for us. 

Matthew West is a contemporary Christian music singer and songwriter and his latest song, ‘Don’t Stop Praying’ is all about how we should keep praying, even when it might be hard to do so. 

“Don’t stop praying
Don’t stop calling on Jesus name
Keep on pounding on heaven’s door
Let your knees wear out the floor”

The song talks about the feeling of hopelessness and even if we don’t always feel like it we need to keep praying. It is a reminder of how important it is to call on Jesus’ name and that we need to keep bringing our prayers to him. 

The music video begins with Matthew West walking into an art studio and making signs that say, “Don’t Stop Praying.” You can see him and others hanging up signs around town as a reminder of what we need to do. 

Matthew West started as an independent musician in the late 1990s before he was signed with a label. He has also written for other contemporary Christian artists such as Point of Grace, Mandisa, and Casting Crowns, as well as for Country artists, Rascal Flatts, Billy Ray Cyrus, and Vince Gill. 

‘Don’t Stop Praying’ came out in January of 2024 and many in the comments are talking about situations where they kept praying even when it was hard. One commenter says, “Just had that experience today! I saw God change two individuals hearts that I've been praying for for 19 years!! His ways are perfect, and his mercies never cease” and another comments, “This song has carried me through a very difficult situation. The Lord has wonderfully answered my prayers in such a way I never dreamed. Keep praying it works and your break through may be just around the corner.”

“Pray without ceasing.” - 1 Thessalonians 5:17
