"Spirit Divine" by Rachael Sey: Surrendering to the Holy Spirit


Are you feeling stretched thin and empty inside despite all of the activity around? Rachael Sey has been there, and that's when she wrote the song "Spirit Divine." Rachael didn't need more busyness in her life, she craved for presence… His presence! Her longing became a prayer: "Holy Spirit, fill us up." This song is her response to that quiet longing, and it's also an invitation to anyone who is carrying around hidden burdens or has a deep longing for more of God in their lives. 

Rachael Sey - Spirit DivineThe lyrics echo the surrender and trust we need to have in our heart: "Holy Spirit, come and dwell within / Fill us up with power from on high." A prayer for renewal, asking God to guide us into His truth and freedom. The chorus continues this cry for renewal, "Spirit Divine, Spirit Divine / Come and fill us with Your light divine." Rachael shows us both the simplicity and depth of prayer and how prayer is your connection to God… a connection that is just one breath away. 

The message of this song is a lifeline, reminding us that the Holy Spirit meets us right where we are, in good times or lesser times, ready to change and align our hearts, and help us to focus our eyes on God. When He fills those empty spaces in your life, everything shifts. 

If you're feeling weary or distant, may this song not only offer you comfort and hope, but also encourage you to whisper this prayer over your own life, and let Him fill you breath by breath.

(Related scripture: John 14:26; Acts 1:8; Ezekiel 36:26-27)

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...

"The Christ" by NewSpring Worship: Answering the Call to Confess

NewSpring Worship's new release, called "The Christ", invites us to answer Jesus' timeless question: "Who do you say that I am?" The song takes us to the scene of Mark 8:29, where Jesus and His disciples were on their way to Caesarea Philippi, and He asked His disciples: "Who do men say that I am?" After the disciples answered, Jesus turned the question around and made it personal… He asked them: "But what about you? Who do you say I am?' Peter answered, 'You are the Messiah.'" Tom, one of the members of NewSpring Worship shared: "… we want that to be a confession of every individual in our church and outside of our church. And we want that to be a confession of everybody." That's the heart of the song. Ask yourself, if you had been there together with the other disciples on that road with Jesus, what would your answer be to His question, "Who do you say that I am?" With this song, you have the oppor...
