Song of the Week 2019 – #14 – “Prayin’ for the Power”

This song is simply a prayer asking for the power of the Holy Spirit to come to us personally and to our churches. The strongest word of this song is "YES.” This "yes" is a word of desire and surrender. Desire - Lord, we want more of who You are and what You have for us. Surrender - Lord, we are open to what “the more” will look like, and we are ready to let go of the things that are blocking Your love and power in and through our lives. Even as I write this description, our church, Christian Assembly will be meeting the next two evenings for worship and prayer, asking the Holy Spirit to come to us with a fresh wind of His power and love! Holy Spirit, we love You, honor You, and desire You. Come in your glory! Come bring your power, revival, healing, breakthrough, salvation, and fire. Amen.

Matthew 3:11 NLT “I baptize with water those who repent of their sins and turn to God. But someone is coming soon who is greater than I am—so much greater that I’m not worthy even to be his slave and carry his sandals. He will baptize you with the Holy Spirit and with fire.”
