In the midst of current global chaos and gross darkness, just like in the beginning when the earth was without form and void, and darkness hovered upon the face of the deep, we need a stirring of the Holy Spirit.
Tosin returns with a song which is a cry out for the Holy Spirit in a world that needs divine intervention. Even though she recorded this piece almost a year ago, the instruction to release it came only recently.
While Tosin and all her family were battling symptoms of COVID-19, the Holy Spirit instructed her that this is the right time for us all to cry out to God for an outpouring of His blessings and mercy by the power of the Holy Spirit.
Tosin says, “I had never needed the assurance of the presence of the Holy Spirit like I did while walking through the valley of the shadow of death. There is nothing else for us to do but to fall on our knees and surrender to Him, not just for now, but for all eternity.”
Our hearts and souls long after You sweet Holy Spirit. Hear the cry of our hearts LORD!
“Oh, that You would rend the heavens! That You would come down! That the mountains might shake at Your presence— As fire burns brushwood, As fire causes water to boil— To make Your name known to Your adversaries, That the nations may tremble at Your presence!”
Isaiah 64:1-2 NKJV
