Yolanda Reece debuted her single last year 2022, and since then she has released other singles. The Christ Gospel Radio reached out to Yolanda to find out more about her music, inspiration, and many more
The Christ Gospel Radio: For those who haven’t heard of you before, can you tell us a bit about yourself, how you got saved, and how you got involved in making music?
Yolanda Reece: Well I got saved when I was 14 years old. Having been invited to church by a fellow volleyball player. I cannot say that the process was immediate but it was a process over a couple of months. My involvement in music came as a result of going into full-time ministry, having no prior involvement apart from music classes in school which I dropped out of. I was heavily influenced by many prophetic words and support for My leadership team to go into the musical path. Prior to that, I was a national volleyball player who graciously gave up a full-time scholarship for the call of God that was upon my life.
The Christ Gospel Radio: you got saved when you were a teenager, please talk us through the experience.
Yolanda Reece: Oh wow… well I grew up in church for all my life, but as we know not because you are in the church means you’re saved, So when I was about 14 years old playing volleyball for our local club I met a lady who was very Christian and she never asked to accept Jesus she only invited me to church. Going to church was my escape from being home and also an escape from the very traditional church services I used to attend, after a period of time attending church with her, I felt the Lord telling me to be baptized Which I followed through with and from then I’ve been in service to God and the church on the whole.
The Christ Gospel Radio: What is a full-time ministry like, on a day-to-day basic?
Yolanda Reece: The ministry that I serve is a Revival Center, School of Prophecy and Prophetic Counselling where we train people who are interested in ministry stirring up the Gifts of the spirit and other in-depth revelations making them effective in their service of the Lord. Classes run from Tuesday thru Sunday. I serve on staff at the Ministry as one of the Leaders, which includes a teacher and Office Administrator. Our prayer rooms serve the needs of individuals both locally and internationally. We have services on Tuesday and Friday nights and also two services on a Sunday.

The Christ Gospel Radio: Tell us about your upcoming single ‘ Overflow’ and what the inspiration behind it.
Yolanda Reece: It got this song as a birthday gift from the Lord in December 2021. It’s an expression of the Joy and the peace that God what to encapsulate His children with and it has been a total delight to get it to the place where it was ready for release. I believe that sometimes as the Church we don’t emphasize enough the fullness of Joy that Jesus wants us to live in. So, I’m hoping that this song will trigger faith in the hears to agree with me that God has filled us with a manifested outpouring of that Joy and Peace
