Global X Night of Worship

As the screens brought up images of countries in need the music began. A familiar song trickled into my soul when Casey Darnell begin strumming the guitar in the key of C (I think). The words begin..."You're the God of this City. You're the King of these people. You're the Lord of this nation. You are!"...and then tears filled my eyes. Why? Don't you here that song all the time? you ask.

Yes, I do...but never the way I heard it last night!



When the voices from Brazil came echoing through the church, my heart immediately yearned to be with them. To being serving them. To be learning from them. To be loving them.

At the end of "Salvation is Here" I wanted to be dancing alongside those children as they sang "We are dancing for the Living Lord, Hallelujah Jesus Christ!"

What was an incredibly overwhelming feeling but one that amplified my desire for missions! There is so much work to be done. So many people to be reached. So many lives to be saved. Who wouldn't want to be a part of that?

God sent his Son into the world not to judge the world,
but to save the world through him.
John 3:17 (New Living Translation)


The night was an amazing display of worship and surrender. In Spirit and in truth with all voices coming together as ONE and worshiping ONE name and proclaiming ONE hope for the salvation of all!

These moments are glimpses of His Kingdom to me…when we expand our horizons of worship beyond the building we are in…to the world outside those walls! ~ Casey Darnell
