Bethel Music's Brian Johnson posted a video on Facebook sharing the story behind the title track "We Will Not Be Shaken," which came from a text message from a friend.

"I think every church community goes through different things and for us over the last few years was the best season but at the same time it was also the hardest season," he began, referring to their relationships and organisational structure.

Johnson then shared that his friend Bob Hartley sent him a text message of the Bible verse Psalm 21:7, "For the king trusts in the Lord; through the unfailing love of the Most High he will not be shaken."

He called the verse and message behind it "prophetic." Johnson added that the verse just jumped at him and he really paid attention because he felt God was speaking to him.

When they started filming and singing the song, Johnson described the experience as "surreal."

"The lyric and verse behind the song was the absolute prophetic word for the season we were in," he said, adding that it was "awesome to have that play out."

He also raved how the lyrics from the other songs of the album fit the theme effortlessly.

Johnson then said that there is was a sense of fulfillment afterwards, knowing not that they did a great job, but rather followed what God was doing and saying.

"It felt like the fulfillment of a word He gave us carried out," he finished.

Bethel Music started with the worldwide premiere of the We Will Not Be Shaken film on its Facebook page. It ran for 24 hours and was followed by an exclusive access to students of WorshipU, a training school for worship leaders and teams. The film was set on a mountaintop overlooking Shasta Lake north of Redding, and was recorded during an evening of worship.

The film was directed by Nathan Grubbs and Luke Manwaring, and was shot using a drone aircraft's camera flying overhead during the worship event.
