A bonus episode inspired by Holy Spirit after reading the lyrics of The Goodness of God written by Jason Ingram / Brian Johnson / Ed Cash / Ben Fielding / Jenn Johnson.
I was driving down the road visiting with the Lord in some dedicated to Him windshield time, and He brought this song to my remembrance.
This outpouring is intentional for you today.
When it comes to the Lord's strategy and walking by the Spirit in obedience, we must release these things. We never know who they are for, but God does. And that is His goodness in action!
There is a very strategic, very specific timing of this particular "sound" and Rhema word that has to be released right now today. Although I have many things on my agenda today, I laid them all down to speak this over a recording.
As you listen, I encourage you to put it all down - no distractions, just listen. Just be in the moment in His holy presence.
Focus to hear what the Lord has to minister to your heart through this sound and word.
I know it is for someone - is it for you?! Maybe it is even for multiple and many ones, but definitely for one, indeed. So, it had to be done.
I pray that it blesses each listener that tunes in.
Prayer of Agreement:
God, You alone, be praised and glorified in all we do. Help us to submit it all to You, Father. Every ... last... bit of it. Be our all in all, in Your fullness, Abba Father! In the mighty name of Jesus, we ask that these things be taught unto us, even more by the Spirit, as we walk and abide and remain in You. You in us and us in You, Mighty God! Let us know what United in Christ means in totality!
We give You our "Yes" of submission unto Your Lordship in our lives and finish this with our Amen of acknowledgment of Your faithfulness and our own awe in Your very presence, saying "so be it" as we continue to stand in Your love.
LYRICS and proper acknowledgment of honor for this
A cappella cover of "The Goodness of God"
I love You, Lord
For Your mercy never fails me
All my days, I've been held in Your hands
From the moment that I wake up
Until I lay my head
Oh, I will sing of the goodness of God
And all my life You have been faithful
And all my life You have been so, so good
With every breath that I am able
Oh, I will sing of the goodness of God
I love Your voice
You have led me through the fire
In the darkest night
You are close like no other
I've known You as a Father
I've known You as a Friend
And I have lived in the goodness of God (yeah)
And all my life You have been faithful (oh)
And all my life You have been so, so good
With every breath that I am able
Oh, I will sing of the goodness of God (yeah)
'Cause Your goodness is running after
It's running after me
Your goodness is running after
It's running after me
With my life laid down
I'm surrendered now
I give You everything
'Cause Your goodness is running after
It's running after me (oh-oh)
'Cause Your goodness is running after
It's running after me
Your goodness is running after
It's running after me
With my life laid down
I'm surrendered now
I give You everything
'Cause Your goodness is running after
It keeps running after me
And all my life You have been faithful
And all my life You have been so, so good
With every breath that I am able
Oh, I'm gonna sing of the goodness of God
(I'm gonna sing, I'm gonna sing)
'Cause all my life You have been faithful
And all my life You have been so, so good
With every breath that I am able
Oh, I'm gonna sing of the goodness of God
Oh, I'm gonna sing of the goodness of God
