"Song of Hope" Robbie Seay Band

When God is going to move mightily in my life, like never before, I experience attacks from the Enemy. There is a sort of discernment in my heart and soul that I get. This uneasy feeling of like being followed, watched...a coldness.
Like some people, or most, who knows haha... I get attacked at night.... dreams, visions, noises, body pain... etc.

I'll tell you more about it one on one, but suffice to say..... It Sucks. It is something that you have to spiritually fight your way through, leaving you tired, and for me, cranky. I get cranky because it throws off my "routine." But that is the point right? To catch us off guard, and make us freak out and panic? Oh I think So.

But the beautiful thing is that I am always, always delivered!!!! ALWAYS! It's one of those things that you know before the attack happens. Like 2+2=4.... Attack +Holy Spirit(calling on the name of Jesus) = DELIVERED!!!!!! OH and The PEACE of CHRIST, that follows after, words cannot express. Even if I do loose sleep, and emotionally I am cranky the next day, I have this peace, this comfort knowing that I have been delivered.

I know that this weekend is going to be huge for me, HUGE. With all the things that are going on in my life right now, this weekend's message from Pastor will speak to my heart, and help to bring about change. There are things in my life that are set into motion and this weekend God will speak to my heart, and tell me which direction to move. There are people that I have to further encourage to come to Church this weekend(beg, plead).

"Song of Hope" by the Robbie Seay Band has really hepled me a lot. This song has helped me to focus on the Goodness of God, and His Love for me.

I am just so excited about SUNDAY!!!

Please Enjoy This Song "Song of Hope"

Thursday Night Worship @ Davidson

One thing I really look forward to as school starts is going to Davidson College Thursday nights for worship.

It is a time and place where I can go and get refreshed by spending intimate time with Jesus.
Last night was just so amazing. Ethan, my main man from back home who is a freshman, rolled out there with me early to pray before worship.
I really had an amazing time praying with people for God to move in worship. God is soo good!!
He showed up last night, just as He always does, and man, I was just blown away.

For me, Davidson worship means a lot to me because no matter how bad my week has been, I have a place and a time where I can just go worship God and how good He is. I get to journal while people are singing over me.

I really am so blessed to have Lauren, Jake, James, Conor, Brad, Sarah Kay, and all those who are a part of Davidson worship in my life.
Davidson Worship always helps me to get the right perspective of just how good God is.
I just feel so refreshed, and so excited to see God move more in my life and those around me.

Man, God is soo good. Thank you God for this amazing week, and the amazing friends you have placed in my life.

"The More I Seek You"

Okay, so at first, I was very reluctant to watch this video by Kari Jobe,(click on the name for the video) that my friend Meredith Workman recommended. I guess it was the fact that I would probably end up crying my eyes out, and all that mushy stuff. (many of you already know I have a soft side, shh let us not tell the whole world)

Well I just have to say that you have to watch it. And try to find some room to move around, or lay out.
Also get a box of tissues, because you are going to cry. Yes, Yes, I cried. I throughly enjoyed this video.

  • Just me and my Maker, alone, spending intimate quality time, breathing life and peace into my soul. Being filled up with His creative Power. His Creative Life. A peace that transcends all understanding (phil 4:7).
Here is the progression....
  • A whirlwind of thoughts and emotions
  • a raging sea of anxiety
  • Only to be tranquiled by a still small whisper...
  • A whisper that is so quite, so within me, yet so powerful, it created the heavens...something I cannot wrap my mind around, yet melts my heart at the thought of it... a whisper that I yearn to hear from God each and every day.
  • The sense of worth, the feeling of knowing that I am a Divine Design, with a Divine Destiny.
  • The joy of having loved ones who love me for who am I.
    I could go on and on... but let us focus on the peace.
"I melt in your peace, it's overwhelming."
THE LYRICS ARE:

The more I seek you,
the more I find you,
The more I find you, the more I love you

C:I wanna sit at your feet
drink from the cup in your hand.
Lay back against you and breath, here your heart beat

This love is so deep, it's more than I can stand.

I melt in your peace, it's overwhelming

(From Top)


Chorus:4x

"Let my Faith Arise"

God has just been doing so much in my life. With school, and work, and working out. My close friends around me are all in different stages of their lives, but they are all growing. Whether they would agree with me or not, from the outside looking in, they are all growing.

I just have one video and it is from Jason Upton. I believe with all my heart, that his prophetic word will speak to your innermost spirit.

Get fired up, get encouraged, get challenged, most of all, GET FILLED WITH THE HOLY SPIRIT AND GET THOSE GOOSEBUMPS!!!!

The Lyrics are on the video.

WHAT IS GOD SAYING TO YOU RIGHT NOW AS YOU WATCH THIS VIDEO?

Christian Rap is my FAV!!


wuz bumpin crew?

Man Wednesday night was off da charts!!
LeCrae concert was AWESOME!!
I went with Mission 28 College Ministry to Wingate and we got to see an up close and personal free LeCrae Concert.

The ride there and back was simply wonderful. I got to spend time with some of the ladies in M28 who are just so on fire fire for Christ. I will write another blog about that. But its worth mentioning that Katherine Dixon and I really got to be unashamed about the Gospel and share truth with each other. It really did my heart good!!

I am telling you, I believe that Christian Rap drops more scripture than any other genre.
Its more than just rap. Christian rap is a tool that these artists use to reach people. It is more than just music. You actually hear the Message preached. Christian rap artists like LeCrae who is a member of the 116 Clique make it their soul purpose to Reach People for Christ.
Trip Lee, Da Truth, Flame, and others are artists who heavily inspire me to reach the lost with music.

On top of that, I have personally experienced Gospel teaching through Christan Rap, and I have used it as a tool to help witness to others.

This is what 116 Clique stands for
Romans 1:16:
16I am not ashamed of the gospel, because it is the power of God for the salvation of everyone who believes: first for the Jew, then for the Gentile.

LeCrae put this scripture on my shirt, and its one of Pastor Furtick's favs.
When Pastor came to CRUSADE he preached on this passage and it was Hands Down AWESOME!! In Fact, that scripture woke me up and I started going to Elevation after that :)

Acts 20:24
24However, I consider my life worth nothing to me, if only I may finish the race and complete the task the Lord Jesus has given me—the task of testifying to the gospel of God's grace.


Hands down Christian is my fav!!!!

Go Check it out!!
"F A N A T I C" is a great song
"Jesus Muzik" ft Trip Lee is also one of my fav's!!

BE BLESSED FANATIC!!!

Hands Down Great Day!!! part 3...LIGHTBOOTH @ Providence Campus

Okay so after working at the Butler Campus with E-Kidz, I happen to wander over to the Providence Campus to watch Pastor Furtick preach the 1pm service live.

And so I got this amazing seat 4 rows from the front, center stage, and I turn around and whom do I see. Well Betsy and Sarah!! YAY!!!!

so those crazies are in the light booth waiving to me haha.
So I got to worship and watch Pastor preach from the light booth. WOW!! And my main man Marcus and main lady Betsy really do an awesome job!! Praise God!! It was so awesome to jump up and down, raise my hands, clap and scream. Marcus and Betsy's gift for lighting and their passion to serve Christ really just blows my mind. The intense timing it takes to do the lighting and the vast knowledge of the lighting world is just crazy. Praise God for Marcus and Betsy. Praise God for Shane @ the Butler Campus, and for others who do lighting for Elevation!!!!!!!

It was more amazing to see people passionately worship before the Lord. To see them dance mightily before the Lord was such a joy and a blessing!!!
Plus they really got into the message as Pastor was speaking life and truth into them.

What an amazing day!!!!!

Praise God!!!!!!!!
