Awake, Awake,
Awake
my heart,
Awake
my soul,
Let the
spirit of God take control.
Let His
love fill me till it overflows
Like a
flood, like a wave I cannot escape.
Fill me
up and take me over.
Drowned
me in your presence,
Wash
over me.
Don’t
let me escape , don’t even let me breath,
Without
knowing that breath is breathed in you.
Flood
my veins, flood my heart, flood my soul.
Deeper
and deeper.
Let
your love overflow.
This is
my prayer. This is my heart. A deeper relationship with my Abba, my Papa, my
Daddy! I want to feel the love and hear
the voice. I want to fully surrender and when I have surrendered it all, I WANT
TO GIVE MORE. I want to go deeper and
fall more in love with my Jesus. I lay it all down. My
hopes and my dreams. My desires
are nothing without His promises.
Empty
words falling on closed ears that will never be heard. Let the deaf hear with
the Words that can only be carried within the power of the creators spoken
breath. Words of Truth spoken with an ever real voice carried across the
ages. Words from a Father, spoken to a
son and daughter. The Power of the Calling you are led into.
Many
are CALLED, few are CHOSEN…(few RESPOND)! Matthew 22:14
Have
you been called by God for something bigger? Has He asked you to take a step
and go deeper? What did you say?? How
did your respond?? Did you choice to say YES? Did you give it all? Or did you
just give that old 10%?
Where
would you be right now if God had chosen just to give you His 10%??? Think
about it?
Make
your YES so complete that you don’t have to say NO!
God may
have you in the desert right now. He may have led you to a place where all you
can see is the dry and cracking ground.
You might be so thirsty and crying out for your direction and wisdom and
feel like you are screaming to deaf ears.
You might be blaming God for the situation you are in right now. You might be at the point where you feel that
you have nothing left and yet God is still demanding more.
Then
it’s time. Time to go deeper. Let the rawness of yourself be uncovered and laid
at the foot of the cross. When you can’t go deeper on your own let Jesus go
deeper for you. Let Him lead you into the depth of your soul where His soul is
residing. It’s time for that relationship to get deeper and stronger.
With
the realization that after the desert there will be a promotion within the
army of God as well as a deeper relationship with Him, we can crawl through the
dessert season on our knees thanking God for the strength He is building in us
for the things only He can see coming.
Don’t
believe the lie that you are all on your own! Don’t be afraid of the deep
relationships in your life that, not only give you community, but will also
carry you to Christ when you can’t carry yourself.
God has
given you a gift and He has given you a passion. Believe in the gifts He has given you! You don’t just from step B to step T in a
space of a week. Life takes time! Embrace
the season you are in right now. Treasure the training and He has for you right
now. It will prepare you step by step, season by season.
God
wants to see you succeed!
Our
ways are not His ways, and our time is not His time! Don’t stress it, and don’t
fight against it. He is in control and He will lead you. Don’t get paralyzed
with the should I? shouldn’t I?’s Take a
step and go for it. Don’t forget the power of looking back! You can always make
corrections!
Don’t
be afraid to give it ALL and then give MORE.
