The past few months I have had a few disturbing dreams. I had one specifically last week that woke me and just made my stomach turn circles all day. It seems that I have direct dreams from the Lord, in which I don't want to wake up but I would rather stay and soak in His wonderful presence and revelation... then I have the other dreams in which I want to jump out of and push far out of my mind, the ones that scare me. I cry out wanting only dreams from the Lord, dreams of peace and revelation. As I cried out the other night for the Lord to reign over my heart and mind in my sleep, I fell into a quite sleep. I awoke with this song in my heart.
Over all the earth
You reign on high
Every mountain stream
Every sunset sky
But my one request
Lord my only aim
Is that you reign in me again
Lord reign in me
Reign in your power
Over all my dreams
In my darkest hour
You are the Lord of all I am
So won't you reign in me again
Over every thought
Over every word
May my life reflect
The beauty of my Lord
You mean more to me
Than any earthly thing
So won't you reign in me again... reign in me again... So won't you reign in me again...
by Brenton Brown
I have to admit that I sang my heart out all day (all week) with this song. I couldn't get this tune out of my mind, it was as if the Lord had placed it upon my heart during my darkest hour, as a seal of protection-that only He would reign in my dreams.
Thank you Father for being so faithful, for loving me so much, for protecting my heart and mind when I have no control. You are beautiful my Lord and You mean more to me than any earthly thing. I want only my life to reflect the beauty of You. I pray to You that You will reign in me, in all you power and majesty, in all your holiness and beauty. Father reign in me.
