Get to Know Brianna Ziemer

Ministry Description

The ministry that the Lord has graciously allowed me to be in is "Overflow Legacy." This is a traveling worship band that is made up of Word of Life Bible Institute alumni. We will be traveling across the United States to lead worship through music, teach lessons from The Bible, share what God is doing through Word of Life ministries, and talk with people of all ages about our God and who he is. We will be traveling for nine months, visiting many schools and churches to do these things. During this time on the Legacy band, we will also get to serve on a missions trip. To be able to do this, I need help both financially and in prayer! Both of these things are so important and I want to thank you for whichever way of support you choose to help me in this ministry. If you are interested in continuing to see what the Lord is doing while I am out on this ministry team, I will be sending out newsletters where an update can be directly sent to you.

About Brianna

I was born and raised as a missionary kid in the country of Romania. Ever since I was young, my parents always stressed the importance of having a good testimony, which helped me understand that what I believe should be evident through the way that I live. My parents were also faithful in their ministry by involving my siblings and I in it and making us realize that even as children we can still have an impact for the Gospel. When I accepted Jesus Christ as my personal Lord and Savior with my mom at the age of eight, I further realized my need for change. As I matured and entered my church’s youth group I began having more questions about my faith and recognized that accepting Christ into my life was only the first step. Now I needed to grow and I was able to identify areas in my life in which I could grow, as I did not want to remain stagnant in my relationship with God.

One of the main things that God pointed out in me was my pride. By God’s grace I realized how consumed I was by my pride and how much I relied on myself rather than depending on Him. I was self-reliant, self-focused, self-satisfied. My view of God was low and I struggled a lot with doubt. The concept of grace was foreign to me, although I had heard about it my whole life. The more I grew the more responsibilities and opportunities I had to minister and serve. I got more involved in my church, in our music ministry, and in our camp ministry, serving children and youth. This is really where my love for worship through music began. However, because I was struggling in my relationship with God these opportunities to serve became more a burden than a blessing. I felt the burden of performing over the blessing of serving. I felt the burden of trying to be perfect over the blessing of giving an offering to the Lord through the way that He has gifted me. I felt the burden of my sin over the blessing of His grace.

“But God who is rich in mercy,” (Eph. 2:4a) He graciously broke me down and rid me of myself. He answered my prayers and revealed Himself to me in a way that I had never understood Him before. He embedded into my heart a love for His Word, a desire to speak to Him and an earnestness to get to know Him and make Him known. He gave me a healthy understanding of worship and showed me how music is a beautiful tool through which we can showcase our worship and how it acts as a window into His throne room.

Psalm 63:3 Because Your steadfast love is better than life, my lips will praise You.
