How He Loves Us

I posted this song last year when no one else even knew it. A few people I gave it to thought the words were a little weird. Now it seems all kinds of artists are coming out with their own version. So the song has caught on in a huge way and is being done in churches all over the world!

The last time I was supposed to lead worship, I had this song on the set. I didn't end up leading that weekend but this song became a huge cry of my heart.

I love my Jesus so much! I am so thankful for HOW HE LOVES US! This song is anointed. Jeremy and I are looking for a new church and we both long to be a part of a worship service that ushers in the Holy Spirit like this song does. So many people are afraid to experience the emotional side of a relationship with God. But if you could realize for one brief moment just how much He loves us, you wouldn't be afraid of what it feels like to be in the thick of a movement from the Holy Spirit. I have stood in services where the air was so thick, you could hardly remain standing. For when the Holy Spirit makes his presence known, it sweeps in all over the place and there is no denying how ALIVE our God is.

Jeremy and I met in one of the most incredible churches we've ever been a part of. I've shared the story many times before about how I was prophesied over regarding Jeremy. The Lord spoke through someone else (Pastor Dan Dean from Phillips, Craig and Dean) and told me that my husband was about to come into my life. Little did I know, the same day that word was spoken over me, Jeremy was sitting in the pew behind me. Six months later, He was my husband.

When I think about how I want my children to know God, I constantly go back to how I grew up knowing Him. My Mother took me to church one time when I had 105 fever. I was only a little girl but she told me that Jesus would heal me. At the beginning of the service, she took me down to the alter where my head was anointed with oil and I was prayed over. My fever broke. Jesus healed me. Because of that act of faith my Mother demonstrated for me, I learned to depend on Christ for everything. I fell in love with Jesus as a young child and I KNEW He was real. This is how I want my children to experience God. I want them to see others raising their hands in worship, speaking in their prayer language and seeing others or themselves healed!

I've seen my husband weep at the alter, lead me by the hand and take me to the alter and pray. I've seen him drop to his knees in a pew and pray during worship. I've seen tears running down his face with both hands raised as he worshipped. I've heard him witness to people and teach Bible Studies. But somewhere along the way, we lost our focus. We put God in a box. We still worshipped Him and loved Him but we forgot how powerful He is! He is JEHOVAH!

We want the power back!

So I would like to ask you to be in prayer for my family as we search for a new church home. A place where we can learn and grow and experience God while being challenged and taught the powerful Word of God. A spirit filled, on fire for JESUS church!

I can't wait to come back and tell you what God has done! I wait with excitement!!
