Healing Music’s Joseph Nyakabau is gearing up for a major gospel event in Harare.
On Saturday, 21 November, the minister will launch his fourth album, Ladder – Manera, at the Hellenic Club.
Themed “Restoration Night of Worship,” the launch is set to deliver a powerful live experience focused on healing and spiritual renewal, moving beyond a traditional album rollout.
The album title is derived from Genesis 28. Joseph Nyakabau said, “God gave me Genesis 28 where Jacob saw a Ladder – Manera in Shona.
A ladder connects earth to heaven. This album is about God restoring what was broken and giving us access again to climb to our destiny.”
The 10-track album was crafted over an intensive 18-month period of writing, studio work, and spiritual reflection. The decision to record exactly 10 songs was intentional.
“The album has 10 tracks. I chose 10 because biblically 10 represents completeness and restoration. Each track represents a rung on the ladder to your restoration,” he said.
While previous projects focused on personal worship, Ladder – Manera marks an evolution in sound. The title track, Ladder – Manera, remains the most personal song on the project, birthed out of Nyakabau’s own season of waiting and personal pain before turning into a message of hope for others.
Attendees at the Ladder – Manera album launch will witness Nyakabau perform the entire 10-track album live for the first time, along with popular hits from his previous projects.
Backed by a live band and a full praise team, the evening promises continuous praise, high-energy celebration, and moments of prophetic worship.
The album will be distributed across all major digital streaming platforms, including YouTube (Healing Music), Spotify, Apple Music, and Boomplay.
Reflecting on what this milestone represents, Nyakabau described the launch as an “Ebenezer”—a testament to God’s continued faithfulness throughout his musical journey.
“The main goal is to heal. Healing Music is a ministry. My goal is for this album to bring healing and restoration in Zimbabwe and beyond. To everyone who has supported us from day one—come on the 21st of November, and let’s climb the ladder together,” said Joseph Nyakabau.
