Celebrated Nigerian gospel music minister, songwriter, and ordained pastor Monique, widely known as Monique Naija, has officially released her uplifting new single, “Hallelujah.” Distributed globally via ONErpm, the vibrant worship anthem champions the conviction that praise should never depend on surrounding circumstances, but rather on the certainty of God’s promises.
Revered as the First Lady of Spaghetti Records, Monique Naija is recognized across the gospel landscape for her commanding vocal delivery and seamless fusion of contemporary urban gospel with high-energy African praise rhythms. On “Hallelujah,” she frames thanksgiving as an intentional, defiant choice—even in seasons where visible evidence offers little reason to celebrate.
Throughout the record, Monique declares, “When they say there is a casting down, I will say there’s a lifting up. When they say the clouds are dry, I will say the rain will come.” These bold confessions reflect the posture of a believer choosing to speak hope into uncertainty and trusting that divine promises will materialize. Backed by infectious praise grooves and repeated declarations of faith, the song invites listeners to lift their voices regardless of what lies directly in front of them.
“Hallelujah” serves as a timely reminder that active faith transforms how believers navigate challenging seasons—encouraging listeners to speak life over their situations and offer praise even before their circumstances shift.
