Go Deeper by Belinda Adu: The Prayer of a Thirsty Soul


Belinda Adu's song 'Go Deeper' is a prayer set to an upbeat melody. It's a plea for a deeper relationship with God, and asks the Holy Spirit to fill us and rekindle a fire within. As I listen, I am reminded of Psalm 42:1–2: '… My soul thirsts for God, for the living God. When can I go and meet with God?'

Belinda Adu - Go DeeperBelinda beautifully captures our desire to feel God's love and guidance, 'I want you to fill me up // 'Cause I feel empty // Come on and pour your // Spirit out once again.' Lyrics that are so relevant when you're feeling spiritually exhausted and crave to feel God's refreshing touch in your life. 

The chorus emphasizes that God is all we need: 'You are enough // You are all that I need // All I want // Is for you to go deep // Start a fire from within.' What is the sense of resisting, when all we need to do is accept the invitation to let God lead and quench our spiritual thirst with His living water? Belinda's sincerity makes this song very relatable, leading you from hearing the lyrics to feeling it in your heart and dropping to your knees to make this your own prayer. 

It shouldn't come as a surprise that listening to 'Go Deeper' is a spiritual experience. Belinda's song leads the way to opening your heart to God so that He can refresh you with His Spirit no matter how thirsty you are. 

Need spiritual refreshment? Listen to 'Go Deeper' today to strengthen your relationship with God.

"King Of All Nations" by Ezra Worship Initiative: Sing Today What Heaven Will Sing Forever

Your worship today echoes eternity. Ezra Worship Initiative trains young worship leaders through a ten-week, seminary-based internship. Their songwriters learn Scripture first and melody second. You can hear this in their latest release, “King Of All Nations,” a song written for congregations to sing. The song opens as a prayer: “May Your Name be proclaimed in all creation.” Who does the proclaiming? The Church does. The second verse asks God to “send Your Church to go and tell the gospel story,” which puts all who sing this right inside the request. Who on your street has never heard His name from you? Then the chorus lifts the roof: “All the honor, voices lifted to the King.” Worship here is not a performance. It is sung as a community, young and old, a multigenerational voice of praise. The bridge looks ahead. “All will come, and all will bow.” John saw the same moment: “a great multitude that no one could number, from every nation, from all tribes and peoples and languages, stan...

"Faith Like Daniel" by Marlee Smith: Praising God When the World Says No

Who do you trust when everyone disagrees? What do you do when the world says that your God doesn’t matter? Marlee Smith’s energetic pop-rock song, “Faith Like Daniel,” comes with an all-teenage female band behind her, and her response to what the world says is anything but timid. When the world feels overturned, she’ll keep “praising my Father,” even when the world says she shouldn’t. Remember what we read in the Bible about Daniel? Daniel knew that pressure. A royal decree banned prayer to anyone but the king for a period of thirty days. Daniel heard the news, went home, opened his windows, and prayed as he always had. No speeches. No protest. Just steady faith, three times a day. Then came the lions, and what happened that night in the den became a testimony. Scripture says, “No kind of harm was found on him, because he had trusted in his God” (Daniel 6:23). Daniel never trusted that his circumstances would be easy. He trusted the One who stood over them. Marlee’s message carries t...

"You Know That I Love You" by David Bollmann: Love That Answers Failure with Mercy

Jesus meets your failure with mercy, not rejection. Peter once promised that he’d never leave. And before a rooster crowed, he’d denied Jesus three times. Have you ever failed at the very thing you swore you’d never fail at? David Bollmann’s third single, “You Know That I Love You”, begins with a promise much like Peter’s: “Others may deny You, I won’t.” The song draws on John 21, where the risen Jesus meets Peter on a beach. He doesn’t scold Peter. He asks him one question, three times over, and Peter, hurt but honest, answers: “Lord, you know everything; you know that I love you.” Peter brings no excuses and no résumé. Only his (imperfect) love, offered with empty hands. The lyrics echo that same longing: “There’s gotta be something I can give You, some cross I can bear too.” We too may feel the desire to repay Jesus for what He has done. But can we? Never! He holds us and will “never cast a stone.” So what do we bring? The truth. Tell Jesus, as honestly as you can, where you faile...
