Let Him breathe on me
Let Him breathe on me
Let the breath of God
Now breathe on me
Let Him breathe on me
Let Him breathe on me
Let the breath of God
Now breathe on me
This is an old chorus we used to sing in church when I was just a child. I love the words to it because now as a child of God it has real meaning to me. If you don't know it...or even if you do...find it on You Tube. I'm sure it will touch your heart.
This morning while I was trying to do my devotions this song was running through my thoughts. I noticed it and yet not really because I was concentrating on what I was reading. Then suddenly...with more force...I heard that song quite clear as it moved to the forefront in my mind. So I stopped reading and let the song take over. Suddenly I realized that it was the Holy Spirit wanting me to listen...really listen...and hear the words.
When things in your life have you stressed to the point of not being able to keep your thoughts on what is good...the Lord and all He's done for you...and your peace seems to be failing a bit...the Lord will do what He has to so He can get your attention. For me many times it's a song. I love music and what He was saying to me was simply...
Stop. Lean into the Lord and give Him control of all the situations that are tying you up in knots. Let Him breathe life onto and into you...clear to your very soul. Give Him all your worries and concerns. He loves you with a love like no other you have known.
Psalms 55:22 Cast your cares on the Lord and He will sustain you.
Zephaniah 3:17 The Lord your God is with you, He is mighty to save.
He will take great delight in you, He will quiet you with His love.
Tonight let the Holy Spirit breathe on you and into you. Let Him breathe life to you.
I always love the way the Holy Spirit speaks to me too, both through the Word of God being brought to my remembrance and also through songs which are brought to mind very vividly that actually go together with that scripture that has been emphasized.
