"Fill Us Again" by Aaron Goodhew: A Cry for Spiritual Renewal


Aaron Goodhew's song "Fill Us Again" is about wanting to feel the power and presence of the Holy Spirit in our lives. Aaron shared that it was a prayer in Ephesians 3:16–19 that inspired these lyrics. It's a prayer that has been repeated by many generations, asking God to bless us with his Spirit so that He can live in our hearts. Simply put, this is a prayer for spiritual renewal. The lyrics beautifully thank God for blessing us with the Holy Spirit and recognize that we can't make it without His strength and courage all throughout our lives. This is highlighted with lines like, "What a gift to receive your spirit" and "How we need you to breathe your power."

Aaron Goodhew - Fill Us AgainAaron Goodhew is a passionate worship leader from the Gold Coast of Australia and wrote this song as an earnest prayer for renewal. The verses speak about God's constant presence, and the chorus asks for the Spirit to "fall afresh." The core message is an invitation to build a deeper intimacy with God, and asks Him to "overwhelm us" and "fan the embers (of faith) into flame." Can you already feel it? Or should we ask, are you ready to feel it? He is already standing next to you, waiting to bless you with His Spirit, and it is up to you to ask for more of His presence.

So, if you're looking for fresh sparks to ignite your fire or simply want to reconnect with His Spirit's power, may this song ignite your heart. His fullness is available to all who seek Him…. He's already at your door!

(Related scripture: Ephesians 3:16-19; Acts 2:1-4; Joel 2:28)

'Lonely Dirt Road' by Dax: A Journey to Solitude and God

Dax's 'Lonely Dirt Road' is a conversation that Dax has with himself and God. Dax shares his journey of turning mental health walks into healing solitary drives. As you listen, you can almost feel the cruise, where it's just you, your thoughts, and God.  The chorus is so relatable: 'When I need space, that's where I go, a place to escape that nobody knows.' What do you do when life's pressures stack high? Do you also have a space where you can let go? That lonely dirt road that Dax sings about symbolizes solitude, but it is also an incredible opportunity for connecting with God.  Dax's honesty is raw and relatable. 'I didn't want my family to see me cry… dealing with the pressure of trying to provide.' There are times when we all put on a smile to hide how challenging situations may be. Like his father, Dax says that he finds peace on this lonely road, where challenges become opportunities to grow. This shows the core of our faith: that...

'Jeremiah 29:11' by Sow In Peace: Connecting to God’s Plan

Mike, the artist behind Sow In Peace, brings us a powerful reminder with his latest track, 'Jeremiah 29:11.' This track has a modern CEDM vibe, blending soothing electronic beats with the timeless promise from God that we can read in Jeremiah 29:11. 'For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.' It’s an energetic melody that doesn't distract from the core message, a song that invites you to reflect on God's promise in your life, reminding you that His plans are driven by love and purpose. Mike grew up in a family of musicians, and it shouldn't come as a surprize that music has always been an important part of his life. He went on to have a successful career writing music for TV shows and movies after finishing his formal education in music. While living the fast-paced Los Angeles lifestyle, he gave his life to Christ and found a new calling—a calling to slow down and re...
