Hearing On Repeat

Ever awaken in the morning with a song on your mind? And it continues to loop throughout the day?

So it has been for me today. Thank goodness, it was not an advertising jingle on repeat, but lyrics of anticipation about what God is doing.

Here is the refrain I have been hearing from “I Hear the Lord Passing By”:

I hear the Lord passing by

This could be my day of visitation

Have mercy on me, Lord

Hear my cry of desperation

Have mercy on me, Lord

From the depth of my affliction

I hear the Lord

I hear the Lord

I hear the Lord passing by

I have not heard this song in recent years, yet I awake with this message on repeat in my spirit. I believe this to be God’s way of stirring my faith and calling me to be alert to what He is about to do.

What is your desperate cry today? Listen with your spiritual ears…can you also hear Him passing by?

“They told him, ‘Jesus of Nazareth is passing by.’ And he cried out, ‘Jesus, Son of David, have mercy on me!’” Luke 18:37-38 ESV
