Beneath The Waters (I Will Rise) - Hillsong

Well, now that the Connect Weekend is over, I will go back to my usual posting of a video on Sunday. I will give a final account of my weekend revelations tomorrow. For now I leave you with the song "Beneath The Waters (I Will Rise)" by Hillsong. 

This is my revelation
Christ Jesus crucified
Salvation through repentance
At the cross on which He died

Now hear my absolution
Forgiveness for my sin
And I sink beneath the waters
That Christ was buried in

I stand a new creation
Baptized in blood and fire
No fear of condemnation
By faith I'm justified

I will rise, I will rise
As Christ was raised to life
Now in Him, now in Him
I live

I rise as You are risen
Declare Your rule and reign
My life confess Your Lordship
And glorify Your Name
Your Word it stands eternal
Your Kingdom knows no end
Your praise goes on forever
An on and on again

No power can stand against You
No curse assault Your throne
No one can steal Your glory
For it is Yours alone
I stand to sing Your praises
I stand to testify
For I was dead in my sin

This song has such powerful lyrics, particularly in the bridge. "Your Word it stands eternal, Your Kingdom knows no end", "No power can stand against You, no curse assault Your throne". That truly is just how powerful God is. He is everlasting, ever powerful, nothing can come against Him, no evil can overpower Him. The question is... Will You rise to meet Him? Or will you stay hidden away, hiding from all your life could be. I'm going to rise! I'm living my life with Him!

Thankful for: My Bed

After not having my bed over the past 2 nights, it's nice to have my own bed back, so I'm thankful for my bed! I know that it may not be a very thoughtful or spiritual thankfulness, but it's just what I feel right now as I just feel like I need to sleep!
