This Wasteland Will Be Whole Again
There is no desert that Your streams can’t run to
There are no ruins that Your love won’t make new
You tell the wasteland that it will bloom again
Cause it’s Your nature
You will restore the years that shame has stolen
You keep the promises that You have spoken
I know this wasteland will be whole again
Cause it’s Your nature
I believe God wants to breathe life into your spirit and release a new level of faith in your heart today.
Those lyrics above are from my song Your Nature and they’re intended to carry a spiritual fervency, to confidently declare that God is who He says He is, and that He will do what He said He would do. They’re based on this powerful scripture in Deuteronomy 11…
…then I will give you the rain for your land in its season, the early rain and the latter rain, that you may gather in your grain, your new wine, and your oil (v. 14, NKJV).
Even now, I’m praying Heaven’s rain would come, water the seeds you have sown in faith, and release a shifting in your life.
Another lyric in the song says to “Sing out o barren woman, sing out o broken man. Break out of disappointment, break out of hopelessness.”
I love that because I believe God is calling us to break out. He’s calling each of us, the barren and broken, to stretch out our hands, believing and declaring for our promised land. He’s asking us to proclaim a new season of answered prayers and fulfilled dreams.
Are you willing to do that today? Are you willing to trust God is making a way, to believe He will restore what’s been stolen, to receive by faith the blessings He has for you?
Undeniably, God loves you. He hears your prayers. He sees you in your distress. He rejoices in your breakthrough. And He cares about the details of your life.
Yes, this wasteland will be whole again.
