At one point of the concert, he said something along the lines of, "Everyone put your hands up in the air. We're about to create a moment that can only happen in this space, at this time. It won't happen anywhere else." Then he told everyone to put their pride down, clap, jump, and basically just send good vibes. That moment was made. It happened in THAT space at THAT time. It can never be repeated.
I liked that concept. When I'm at a concert, I enjoy the music and dance to the rhythm, but I'm conscious that I don't treat it as if I'm in worship. Fine line, people. But Allen Stone's "exhortation" can be applied the next time I AM worshipping God. When in prayer, I must lay down my pride. I need to let go of the negative energy and allow that space to be filled with more than "good vibes" but the Holy Spirit. It's a time in prayer that will happen then and there, and it can't be recreated. I should allow for those specific moments to happen with Him every time I pray...allow God to really fill me. WOAH.
THAT is a kind of "energy" you can't explain to someone. That also takes a lot of practice but you had me at "let go of your pride."
May we all create our moments with God in prayer time. May we let go of the baggage and allow space for the Spirit to move us and stir in our hearts. May it move us so deeply that we have our moment with God right then and there. It's a moment that won't happen any other time or any other place. It's specific and special for you.
Good night, world, and Godbless you.
