Yep
It’s rising up in you. Come on, you know it. You can feel it. Now don’t you doubt it. How everything, everything points to Him, and shows you Him. More and more. How your heart stirs for more and more of Him. More and more of only Him. Yep, all of Him.
This rising up, His rising up, within you. It comes about always and only through your worship of Him and in your prayer to Him. Can you see it? His rising. Your life. It is your weakened and softened, Christ-filled life consumed with worship and soaked in prayer that welcomes the Holy Spirit to rise up within you. Can you see it? Now don’t you doubt it.
Your prayer and your worship prove it. Where prayer has become your life-line, and every heart-wrenching pain is simply brought forth, without words, to Him, knowing He hears. Always. Where worship has become your abundant overflow of praises to Him, the only One Who is worthy, knowing He deserves it, knowing you desire it. Always.
Yes, through your prayer and in your worship, where every deepest despair and darkest moment, every ecstatic delight and glorious moment is brought to the feet of the One Who knows all already. Where He, the Light, is allowed in to heal, to shield, to protect, to love. Where your praise is given in overflowing of abundant joy and adoration, to lift up, to acknowledge, to honour Him.
Yep. You can feel it. And you can see it.
Where you fall more and more in love. Where you know He is enough, and your acceptance to Him is enough. For everything. It’s where He is rising up within you. Yep, you know it, Christ’s life is alive and well in you.
It’s the life of abundance He longs for you to have all the days of your life, the rising up of the Holy Spirit in you!
