Higher Wider Deeper

Day 22. We’re in the final countdown. If this were New Year’s Eve, we’d be in the homestretch to midnight.

I’m a little ready for this 31 day challenge to be over. It’s not because I’ve found it to be difficult or draining…the opposite actually. God has opened up the floodgates of heaven and I have been drenched in His presence. I feel like I’ve stepped into this parallel universe that I kinda knew existed but had never experienced it to this degree. The past six months, and especially the past 21 days, have been full of moments where I’ve thought ‘I don’t know if I can handle anymore of you God…this physical body is just so limited and I might pop!’ And then I quickly said ‘just kidding God…keep coming’. Even when I feel satisfied and like I can’t contain any more, keep coming. Enlarge my capacity. Enlarge my territory.

I’m ready to have time to process and fully soak in all that He’s revealed of Himself in this season. He’s shifted my perspective and approach to life. Challenged me to stretch my faith and trust Him to provide when I had no clue how he could do it – and He came through.

Higher + Wider + Deeper by Citipointe Live is the song on my heart today:

Verse1:
How beautiful this love
You would lay down Your crown
Surrender Your throne in heaven
So that I could be found
How awesome is this love
That conquered the grave
Love that can move the mountains
Yet knows me by name

Pre Chorus:
Its unbreakable
Its undeniable
Nothing will ever
Separate us

Chorus:
Your love is higher
Than the skies up above
Your love is wider
Than what I can dream of
Your love is deeper
Its the greatest of all

Bridge:
Holy are You Father
A love like no other
So vast like the universe
Is Your love, Your love

 

For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord.” ~Romans 8:38-39

I pray you are able to experience this supernatural love that passes our comprehension in a way that you’ve never experienced before. May the floodgates of heaven open up and drench you with His Spirit today.

  1. I love this line: I don’t know if I can handle anymore of you God…this physical body is just so limited and I might pop!
    So so true. Sometimes He is TOO generous with Himself and it’s crazy overwhelming and I wouldn’t trade it for the world.

    1. I was thinking the same thing as I wrote this…I’m amazed at how God shows up and then I think ‘why was I ever doubting Him?! He is ALWAYS faithful!!! Thanks for sharing Allyson 🙂

  2. Thank you for sharing! Loved the words to Higher Wider Deeper…I have never heard that one before but it really touched me as I listened to it and let the words run through my heart.

  3. I know how you feel! I am already crafting a Lessons Learned post for when my 31 Days is over – because I have learned so much about myself. It’s been exhausting, and I’ve felt more anxiety and stomach pain than ever before, but also so rewarding.
