"Spirit Come" by GRANDE: An Uplifting Encounter with God's Presence


GRANDE's new song 'Spirit Come' is inspired by an amazing experience during a trip to Asia. In late 2023, while visiting Korea, Malaysia, and the Philippines, GRANDE faced the challenges of being away from family and had to deal with a lot of internal dynamics. 

GRANDE - Spirit ComeOne day, at a conference in Malaysia, the Spirit of God filled GRANDE with a deep sense of peace and belonging. Although he was far away from home, he felt at home in a church full of strangers because he felt the Spirit of God. 

Everything in life has a purpose in God's plan, so it shouldn't come as a surprise that God brought this experience to memory after he had returned home and inspired him to write 'Spirit Come'. 

The lyrics of 'Spirit Come' beautifully capture this powerful experience of the Spirit of God comforting and loving us no matter where we are. The lyrics speak of opening our hearts and eyes to God's love, inviting the Holy Spirit to flow into our lives like a river of gladness. The song calls for God's fire to fall and His mercy to rain down on us. It is through this song that GRANDE reminds us that it doesn't matter where we are, the Spirit of God is always with us, comforting and guiding us. 

May you open your heart to God's love, invite His Holy Spirit to flow into all parts of your life, and bless you with His mercy and grace.

(Related scripture: John 14:26; Acts 2:17; Romans 15:13)

"What A Savior" by Will & Jacinta Ellis and Crossing Life Worship: Never Growing Numb to Grace

Have you ever grown numb to a miracle?  “What A Savior” by Will & Jacinta Ellis and Crossing Life Worship began as a chorus in a co-write, before it took on a life of its own. Will & Jacinta wanted something rich and almost hymn-like, a bold declaration of who Jesus is — not a tired restatement, but a fresh look. They never wanted to grow “used to” what Jesus accomplished, so they wrote about holding on to Him in every season, regardless of whether it’s calm or chaotic.  The opening lines start with the redemption through Jesus’ blood: “The precious fount, that cleansing flow, the Son of God poured out for all.” That’s the blood that Jesus spilled for you. The song moves from the cleansing through His blood to the result: “The debt I owed and all sin’s claims were buried with You in the grave.” Your debt. Buried. Gone.  Here’s where it gets even more personal. Romans 5:8 says, “God shows his love for us in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us.” ...

"King, Lamb, Lion" by Ben Jero & Graham Guy: When the World Runs Dry

What happens when the world just isn’t enough?  In early 2025, Graham Guy was reading Revelation chapter 4. The picture of heaven gathered around the throne — declaring God holy and worthy of praise — planted the seed for this song. Three words surfaced from that moment: “King, Lamb, Lion.” Graham sent them to Ben Jero, and across a string of FaceTime calls between South Carolina and California, the song “King, Lamb, Lion” took shape.  The opening verse doesn’t pretend. “I’ve tried this world, but it won’t fill me,” the lyric admits, before landing at surrender: “My life laid down, at your feet.” That’s honest territory. Most of us have chased something we thought would satisfy, only to find ourselves empty-handed. The song changes our focus to lasting results. “The old is gone, the new has come,” it declares, repeating a promise found in 2 Corinthians 5:17: “If anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. The old has passed away; behold, the new has come.” Notice what that ...

"If Jesus Danced" by Cameron Pruitt: Making Room for Laughter in Your Walk with God

Does your faith leave room for laughter? Can you imagine Jesus kicking off His sandals, dancing to a rhythm only He can hear? Strange thought? Maybe, but Cameron Pruitt’s song “If Jesus Danced” asks exactly that: “Sometimes I wonder if Jesus danced.” It’s a question worth pondering. Most of us picture Jesus as solemn, serious, carrying the weight of the world. But rarely do we picture Him laughing so hard that “the room relaxed.” Cameron insists this joy was real. Jesus wasn’t just a teacher of hard truths. He was, as Cameron sings, “the life of the party, radiant friend.” He warmed hearts. He had humor. People wanted to be near Him, not because He demanded reverence, but because His presence felt like sunshine. This connects to Psalm 16:11: “You make known to me the path of life; in your presence there is fullness of joy; at your right hand are pleasures forevermore.” Joy isn’t a distraction from faith. Joy is the destination. God doesn’t just tolerate your happiness; He included j...
