"I pray that out of his glorious riches he may strengthen you with power through his Spirit in your inner being, so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith. And I pray that you, being rooted and established in love, may have power, together with all the Lord’s holy people, to grasp how wide and long and high and deep is the love of Christ, and to know this love that surpasses knowledge—that you may be filled to the measure of all the fullness of God.

Now to him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to his power that is at work within us, to him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations, for ever and ever! Amen." Ephesians 3:16-21 NIV

Lately, I have had a song burning in my heart. It is my heart's desire for you. To know God's love in such a way that it burns deep within your soul and consumes every part of you. God's love is not something that can be explained or summed up in a few paragraphs, rather, it is to be lived out and experienced on an intimate level. God's love is the place we can dwell in when nothing else around us seems certain; his love is constant, always sure. Rather than try to share a collection of stories or ways in which God expresses his love to me personally, I want you to just simply dwell and allow him to speak to you however he desires.

Embedded below is a song you can sing over your heart today. Here is a truth you can live out, and a prayer you can pray. Allow God’s love to touch the deepest and darkest parts of you today. Allow him to dwell in your heart today as you sit with him there. I pray that these words would flood your heart and that through them you would receive a fresh revelation of God’s great love for you. Sing them over yourself as I pray them over you. How deep is his love. How great is his grace. I pray that his love and grace would absolutely overwhelm you today, heart and soul.

I recommend turning on closed captions if you would like to follow along to the lyrics on screen.
