You Love Me Anyway Lyrics
by Sidewalk Prophets
The question was raised
As my conscience fell
A silly, little lie
It didn't mean much
But it lingers still
In the corners of my mind
Still you call me to walk
On the edge of this world
To spread my dreams and fly
But the future's so far
My heart is so frail
I think I'd rather stay inside
But You love me anyway
It's like nothing in life that I've ever known
Yes, You love me anyway
Oh Lord, how You love me
How You love me
It took more than my strength
To simply be still
To seek but never find
All the reasons we change
The reasons I doubt
And why do loved ones have to die?
But You love me anyway
It's like nothing in life that I've ever known
Yes, You love me anyway
Oh Lord, how You love me
I am the thorn in Your crown
But You love me anyway
I am the sweat from Your brow
But You love me anyway
I am the nail in Your wrist
But You love me anyway
I am Judas' kiss
But You love me anyway
See now, I am the man who yelled out from the crowd
For Your blood to be spilled on this earth shaking ground
Yes then, I turned away with a smile on my face
With this sin in my heart tried to bury Your grace
And then alone in the night, I still called out for You
So ashamed of my life, my life, my life
But You love me anyway
It's like nothing in life that I've ever known
Yes, You love me anyway
Oh Lord, how You love me
You love me, yes
You love me
How You love me
How You love me
How You love me
You Won't Relent Lyrics
by Jesus Culture
You won't relent until You have it all,
My heart is Yours (4x's)
I'll set You as a seal upon my heart
as a seal upon my arm
For there is love that is as strong as death
Jealousy, demanding as the grave
And many waters cannot quench this love
You won't relent until You, have it all
My heart is Yours
You won't relent until You, have it all
My heart is Yours (2x)
Come be the fire inside of me
Come be the flame upon my heart
Come be the fire inside of me
Until You and I are One (2x"s)
I don't want to talk about You
Like You're not in the room
I want to look right at You
I want to sing right to You (3x"s)
You won't relent until You have it all,
My heart is Yours (4x's)
I'll set You as a seal upon my heart
as a seal upon my arm
For there is love that is as strong as death
Jealousy demanding as the grave
And many waters cannot quench this love
Come be the fire inside of me
Come be the flame upon my heart
Come be the fire inside of me
Until You and I are One (2x"s)
Come awake oh my soul, come and praise him
From the light of the dawn till I sleepLet me sing of your love and your mercies
Come awake oh my soul, I will praise him
There is one thing I ask, one thing I seek
That I may dwell in the house of my king
Better one day in your house than a thousand elsewhere
Come awake oh my soul, I will praise him
For whatever i’ve gained I count it all lossFor the love of my christ above allLet my Jesus, my savior be my joy
Come awake oh my soul I will praise him
The Law of Attraction is not about how the Universe gives or takes away; it is about the Kingdom
of God has been set-up to operate.
It is a system that existed before sin ever entered the heart of a man
• A system where the way to be exalted is to be humble
• A way to be truly alive is to die to self
• The way to receive is to give
• What holds it together is a gravitational fi eld called faith in God
• It cannot be controlled or manipulated
• It can only be understood by understanding the God who created it
What is the Law of Attraction?
• Look at an atom.
• A negative charge will always attract a positive charge
• Electronic bond
• A negative charge attracts positive charges
• Whenever you give out, you create a negative charge which attracts a positive charge from
the Kingdom of God
This law applies to you—it allows us to attract Heaven’s blessings
• We don’t want to manipulate it for that purpose though
Everyone can hear from God, but not everyone can perceive it
How does the revelatory gift operate? How can we grow with it? What do you do with it? What is a
prophetic gift?
The Bible has a lot to say about this
• When many people think of prophecy, they think of the prophets of the Old Testament
• That is more of a stereotype than what the Bible really says
“And He Himself gave some to be apostles, some prophets, some evangelists, and some pastors
and teachers” (Ephesians 4:11).
“For all can prophesy one by one, that all may learn and all may be encouraged” (1 Corinthians
14:31).
All is all, and some is some. So what did Paul mean when he wrote these two verses?
• He was indicating there are different levels of the prophetic gift
• You may not be a prophet, but you can receive revelation from God
Good things happen to bad people and bad things happen to good people
Where is the justice in that?
Justice is limited to the knowledge of man
• The justice of man is based on the knowledge of God
• You have to know God’s judicial process
Why does God allow us to experience the enemy’s attacks?
• The justice scales need to be in balance
• The keys to God’s justice are hidden in God’s Word
Keys
• Before Jesus was resurrected, the justice was harsh
• After the cross, Jesus took judgement upon Himself
• If you don’t make a claim, He won’t render a decision
• Some don’t believe they deserve justice
• We are required to ask for it.
What about you? Have you not received justice that is coming t you or even your family?
Mysteries
• They will arise because God put it there for you to fi nd
• They aren’t on your radar because you didn’t know what you didn’t know
• That is a paradigm shift
A Paradigm is a pattern or model of something that can shape your world view
• Jesus was good at shaping people’s paradigms
• Paradigm shifts often include a violent end to an old point of view
The gift of prophecy is not the messages that you’re receiving, it’s the ability to receive those
messages
• Some psychics have a true revelatory gift that actually came from God in the beginning.
“For the gifts and the calling of God are irrevocable” (Romans 11:29).
Psychics aren’t hearing from God when they’re reading people
• It’s the ability to hear that is the gift, not the message itself
• The gift is like a satellite dish that can receive communication in the spiritual realm
Psychics can have a true spiritual gift from God—but it’s a qualifi ed gift
• That doesn’t mean they’re hearing from God
• The gift is like a satellite dish
• God is like a satellite
• The dish needs a satellite to communicate with
• A person who hears from God is like a dish that is tuned and directed to a satellite (God)
• Psychics who do not know or serve God do not receive signals from Him
• He may have sent them messages at one time, but they have stopped coming
When Psychics stopped receiving signals from God, they turned to other sources to receive signals
• Dark forces have another signal
• Dark forces are always looking for ways to capture someone’s gift
Throughout life we gather knowledge like a computer
• Is there a search engine for the eternal, limitless knowledge base of God?
• When we get plugged into the Spirit, it is like having a search engine connected to God
Himself
“But God has revealed them to us through His Spirit. For the Spirit searches all things, yes, the
deep things of God” (1Corinthians 2:10).
The “deep things of God” are where the mysteries are found
Before and after the Holy Spirit in the lives of the disciples:
Before:
• The disciples argued over “who was the greatest”
• Jesus rebuked Peter and told him, “Get behind Me, Satan!”
• The disciples were not around for the Crucifi xion
• They didn’t realize they were the twelve baskets left over after Jesus multiplied the loaves
and fi shes
After:
• The disciples were willing to give themselves over to prayer and fasting
• Peter spoke boldly before 3000 people
• The disciples were willing to stand as martyrs—and they did
• Peter’s shadow healed the sick
What is destiny?
• God calls people into their destiny in many ways
• Sometimes in very supernatural ways
• God gives you direction along the way—like a road sign
• You have to have faith
• Sometimes you may get a prophetic word
• A prophetic word is the heart of God revealed to a person for the benefi t of someone else
• It can provide you direction, encouragement or warning
• Most prophetic words are personal prophecy
• If you are looking for a sign, a good place to start is reading the Bible
• It will sensitize you to any other signs God might want to give you
There were two trees in the Garden of Eden: The Tree of Life, and the Tree of the Knowledge of
Good and Evil
• The difference between the two is God
• The Tree of Life is fed by the Spirit of God
• The Tree of the Knowledge of Good and d Evil is fed by the soul of man.
• The Tree of Knowledge is the replacement for God—it’s the choice God allows us
to make:
• To be fed by our soul, or be fed by our spirit
If you live by your soul, does that make you a spiritual person?
• God created you with an intellect—but does that make you any more spiritual?
• God’s ways are higher than our ways
• God’s wisdom will always seem foolish to the lower logic of man
• The logic of man will never create a pathway to spirituality
God placed you at this very moment in history, because there’s something only you can do
He chose when and where you should live:
“And He has made from one blood every nation of men to dwell on all the face of the earth, and has
determined their pre-appointed times and the boundaries of their dwellings, so that they should seek the Lord,
in the hope that they might grope for Him and find Him, thought He is not far from each one of us; for in
Him we live and move and have our being, as also some of your own poets have said, ‘For we are also His
offspring”’ (Acts 17:26–
28).
Could God be using you today to change the life of someone around you?
He sends angels to wage war around you every day. Others He sends to comfort and strengthen
you; to nudge you toward your destiny.
The meanings of dreams are a mystery
• Dreams are much like a game of hide-and-seek
• Dreams are God’s night parables
• They won’t make any sense if taken seriously
• That’s why they’re often ignored
• Flying in a dream
• Indicate a gift to rise above things of the earth
• The ability to have spiritual experience
• Teeth falling out in a dream
• Speaks to our current ability to grasp and “chew” information
• Eye tooth could be how you view yourself
• Wisdom tooth could be inability to chew on or process what is going on in your life,
having an effect on choices you’re making
• Snakes
• Represent lies or “t-a-l-e-s”
• Alligators
• are meant to take you down
What is Evil? Why does it exist? Is there a battle between good and evil?
God is not fi ghting for control of anything
Two trees in the Garden
• The Tree of Life
• The Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil
Why would God put two trees in the Garden, yet forbid the eating of the fruit of one of them?
• God wants us to love Him freely and with freewill
• Without choice, we are just robots
The relationship between good and evil is in of itself a mystery
• God sent His son Jesus to pay the consequences of sin once and for all
• Jesus returned to mankind the authority that had been given to Satan
• Jesus, the last Adam, accomplished this through His sinless life
Why does Satan then still have power?
What is time?
• Time is everything that exists in the past and future. And the slim moment called the
present
• Buy more specifi cally, it’s a dimension
How did time start?
• Time began when God fi rst began His creating
• Because as soon as something is created, there becomes a past
• There becomes a before and an after of that object’s existence
• God created time. Time is a created “thing.”
Even in the smallest choices you make every day, you can choose to follow what the Spirit is saying, and learn to tune out what the soul is saying It’s the same process as learning the Art of Hearing God It’s not about trying to turn the voice of the Spirit up; it’s about turning the voice of the soul down • You turn down the voice of the soul by removing the filter that have built up over time, then work on establishing your atmosphere of peace through prayer and the word • Then you start to build spiritual filters that will help you make better decisions whenever the next stimulus comes your way
