This hit me like a ton of bricks Wednesday night....(a lot of things did, but this was when God started getting my attention). We don't have church during school breaks, so I was in Nashville visiting and at my other home church. The title of this song is from Holy Spirit...a song that I have sung many times, but this night that line hit me a different way. Every time I walk into Restoring Hope, I'm overcome by His Presence...it hits me as I walk through the doors and regardless of distractions, what my phone may be saying, how I feel, or what I am even thinking...God has my attention and He knows it. How many times do I let myself get to that place in my day to day walk? His presence is overwhelming.....and once you experience it so heavy and so thick that you don't want to move....He knows He has your attention. That's the presence we should desire always.....distractions aside, speak to us, Lord. Breakthroughs happen when we are Overcome by His presence...because we get to the point in our heart that we aren't going anywhere until God does something. As Jacob said when He wrestled with God, I'm not moving Lord until you bless me. Are you determined that even if you leave with a limp, you are ready for God to do what He needs to do?
Want to feel the shift? Give Him permission to unstick you and release all of those insecurities, discouragement thoughts, and doubts....The enemy knows the value on the inside of you...do you? God has greater things still to come....if you will just release yourself into His hand. This is the year for everything to be restored that the enemy has stolen. It first starts in His presence.....God may we become more aware of Your presence.
The shift is the atmosphere...Can you feel it?
