   About Habib Koite & Bamada


Habib comes from a noble line of Khassonké griots, traditional troubadors who provide wit, wisdom and musical entertainment at social gatherings and special events. Habib grew up surrounded by seventeen brothers and sisters, and developed his unique guitar style accompanying his griot mother. He inherited his passion for music from his paternal grandfather who played the kamele n'goni, a traditional four-stringed instrument associated with hunters from the Wassolou region of Mali. "Nobody really taught me to sing or to play the guitar," explains Habib, "I watched my parents, and it washed off on me."

Yes, And this is the confidence that we have in him, that, if we ask any thing according to his will, he heareth us (1 John 5:14).

It’s important to pray, but your praying wouldn’t be effective if you don’t know the Word of God. If you’re not properly grounded in God’s Word, you would only know to pray religious prayers and prayers borne out of unbelief. Praying without knowledge is the reason for seemingly ineffective prayers.Always whatever you do, Do it all in Jesus Name.
