I read this fab Bible verse the other day and knew I needed to sing it for this session:
Micah 7:7-8 (NIV version) “But as for me, I watch in hope for the LORD, I wait for God my Savior; my God will hear me.”
Whatever battle we might be facing, we can be assured that God will hear us and therefore we can ‘watch in Hope’. He might not answer in the way we’d like or are expecting… but He always hears and answers in one form or another.
Lamentations 3:25 says; “The LORD is good to those who wait for Him, To those who seek Him.”
I might start a soaking session feeling a bit rushed - we’ve usually been up super early, going on a run, doing a load of washing, unloading the dishwasher, styling at least one or two of our kids hair, abiding to various other parent requests to help with booking school lunch or making lunch boxes, listening to our youngest read… rushing them off the school buses and… phew… soaking time! Ha! But a few minutes in & we begin to relax, feel His peace again! I know I can ‘watch with hope’… whatever the morning has been like, He will always LOVE that we’re looking to Him for an encounter. I can give our kids to Him & anything else on my mind too - in genuine hope that He will hear and answer me & ‘run’ to meet with me as I shift my focus from myself and situation to Him.
We pray that this session will help facilitate this same sense of peace & hope too. Do tell us if so!

Choosing Thankfulness - medicine for depression..
Psalm 141 v 2: May my prayer be set before you like incense; may the lifting up of my hands be like the evening sacrifice.
Beat Depression with thankfulness Spontaneous Worship & Soaking Meditation in Studio
Praise is Rising Up:
Psychologists agree with the scriptures that one of the best antidotes to poor mental health is gratitude. Praise is ultimately gratitude to God - not just for what He’s done for us (& we might not understand some of the tricky situations that we’re in)… but for WHO He is…. We have so much to Thank God for. Literally reading some of His character traits are amazing & deserve a whole bunch of praise, obviously the HUGE sacrifice of Jesus, the incredible creation, the fact that we’re alive and breathing… so so much!
Psalm 141 v 2: says; “May my prayer be set before you like incense; may the lifting up of my hands be like the evening sacrifice.” This is my prayer too - that my praise & worship will ‘rise’ to the throne soon of God and be like a sweet aroma to God.
All the while we worship, our intention is to bless HIM, but all the while, things shift around us too - we gain His perspective, we feel His peace, we receive His joy, I have even experienced supernatural healings or massive changes in physical circumstances within my life (& the lives of those around me).
I encourage you to praise… it’s sooo good - especially when it’s hard and we don’t feel like it. It’s even more beautiful to God when it’s a sacrifice of praise.Support the show

Have mercy on us
This mornings session felt like a heavy one. I (Hannah) felt that we should focus on Pslam 51; King David’s poem of repentance. There is so much crisis around us - so many systems that are deeply broken in our society - not just in the UK, but around the world. Sometimes we just need to sit in lament & ask for mercy.
I personally wanted to pray for mercy too - some attitudes & behaviours of mine need ‘tweaking’ to say the least! It’s a horrible feeling when you feel convicted… BUT it’s amazing to know that God welcomes us with HUGE loving arms & forgives us when we come to him - knowing that we are made righteous - not through our own ‘good’, but through Jesus’ righteousness… His giving of Himself on the cross means we can be saved from the consequence of our own wrongs - that Jesus chose to take the consequences of sin upon himself, dying with them & as he came back from the dead - He brings us into a new life too!
I decided to sing the whole of Pslam 51 (I didn’t realise how long it was until I’d got half way through 😆) You might notice Theade leaning over to me and saying that we needed to ‘move on’ - but I hadn’t finished the psalm so we had to push through to the glorious end lol!
We hope and pray that this will be used as a tool for your own lament over situations you are undoubtedly facing too. May you know His comfort in your struggles. Blessings x

To Be In Your Presence by Noel Richards is such a classic staple worship song… I (Hannah) love taking bits of the song & incorporating or in our soaking sessions… “To be in your presence not rushing away… to cherish each moment.. here I will stay…” This sums up the essence of our vision as In The Wait. I can hear the theological arguments of some folk who may say… “we are always in God’s presence” etc etc… Yes I agree! BUT when we turn our ‘spiritual eyes’ (imagination eyes / the eyes of our heart) towards Jesus & still ourselves… we find a deeper sense of His Presence.
I’ve practiced this since beau g encouraged to do so by an amazing youth leader ‘Malcome Morgan’ when I was 11 years old - waiting in prayer until something shifts in me - my heart is moved, I sometimes have an overwhelming sense of God’s love, sometimes the atmosphere feels ‘thick’ with His peace… or electric with some kind of Heavenly joy & excitement… Sometimes I need to just believe that He’s close and it takes longer for something to shift in my heart and mind… other times, it’s almost instant… What a gift we have as human beings - to access something of the presence of the Creator of the whole world through the person of Jesus Christ! I say this often, but when I sense his presence (along with millions of Jesus followers around the world & through the ages…) I feel most ‘at home’, most ‘held’ most ‘understood, loved cherished, peaceful’. He meets me in my pain, my confusion, my questions.. and I know - beyond a shadow of a doubt, that His desire to have my full attention & let me know how much I’m cherished is even greater than my desire to connect with Him. Wow. What a beautiful mysterious and awesome truth!
We’d love to hear your experiences too - or if you haven’t yet experienced this… give it a go - ask Jesus to reveal himself to you.Support the show

Our Affection
When I stop & look at Jesus’ face in my minds eye (I call this my ‘imagination eyes’ to our kids) something moves in my heart, emotions, mind and even body…. I literally feel a ‘warmth,’ a comfort, deep sense of being loved & seen and known & safe… it’s honestly the best! Whatever is going on for me - however things are difficult, I find peace and comfort in this ‘posture’. I find it really helps me to visualise Jesus - this moves my heart more than if I just talk (pray) without visualising. It’s so good for us to then ‘pour our affections’ onto Him - there is something sooo intrinsically healthy for the human soul & spirit to ‘love on’ & show our deep gratitude to someone else - moving our attention from ourselves & onto Him.
I have a friend who used to ‘do life consciously with Jesus’ but doesn’t any more. She is a psychiatrist and loves to now call Jesus my ‘imaginary freind’. Lol! I guess, my picture in my minds eye may be WAY off what Jesus looks like in the flesh, but it’s more of a ‘spirit to spirit’ looking - rather than really defined physical features. I’d love to know what you see if you ever worship Him too - it fascinates me how different we are at relating to God between those of us who seek this… I could take a step back and physiologically analyse this - perhaps even as some form of ‘make belief’ as I visualise Him - but the reality of my sense of deep belonging, the comfort, the wisdom I’ve found in Jesus - which lines up with the experience of millions of other Jesus followers throughout generations, would take more ‘faith’ for me to deny Him!
I love this song ‘Jesus we love You’ written by Paul and Hannah McClure, - especially the lines, “our affection our devotion poured out on the feet of Jesus”… it helps me engage my spirit & visualise pouring myself & my ‘affections’ out to Him as I sing. Try it if you haven’t already - & we’d love to hear how you get on :) xSupport the show

Our minds are so busy… full of lists of things we need to do, thinking about relationships, worrying, watching screens etc… we don’t stop our minds.
Psalm 46 talks about being still and knowing that He is God… I have to tell myself to be still! Once I am still, I find being still in prayer and worship really helps me gain perspective again… He gives me hope in otherwise hopeless situations, He gives me strategies when I’m not sure what to do, He gives us wisdom & all the while thoroughly enjoying being with us.
The heart behind this channel is to facilitate you to have encounters with God. We pray that this is a reality for you :) Do tell us if so!

Proverbs 2 1-5
I believe that learning to listen to God is the most important discipline we can have… if we are tuned into the voice of God, through the scriptures, through words & pictures and dreams and visions… we are guided in every other area of our lives.
Being still with an open heart & listening is a good start! Proverbs 2 verses 1-5 says; My son, if you receive my words and treasure up my commandments with you, making your ear attentive to wisdom and inclining your heart to understanding; yes, if you call out for insight and raise your voice for understanding, if you seek it like silver and search for it as for hidden treasures, then you will understand the fear of the Lord and find the knowledge of God.
Our prayer is that this music will help you to stop, sit, maybe close your eyes and be still so that you can listen :)

Worship with us… “Nothing Else” & “Yeshua”
We thought it would be good to include a couple of our favourite worship songs in our soaking worship session today. Sometimes we need a good ‘soak’ - to rest & enjoy the presence of God while we ‘bask’ in his love. Other times, it’s great to join Heaven in their praises. It feels like a different posture when we’re ’loving on Him’ & not just enjoying His presence. During most soaking sessions, I love the Holy Spirit flow as we go from high praise to intimate worship, to intercession, to prophetic declarations, to feeling the heart of God for something painful & it keeps flowing between these things. All the while, my soul gets a good nourishment & feels just that bit more restored than before. Joining Heaven in worshipping God is such a privilege isn’t it!

Live Worship Sleep and Soak in the Presence - Seek His Face
Welcome to our live-streamed session of Cinematic Soaking Worship, where we blend live prayer, meditation, focus and study music. Today's session focuses on the theme of “just being”.
The prayer language is such a gift. We’re so grateful for it. Quite often, my own words just don’t cut it. I run out & don’t even have words to connect my spirit with The Spirit of God. Heaven language (some call it ‘the gift of tongues’) is an incredible spiritual gift that I use frequently to connect to God without having to engage my mind - spirit to Spirit. Jesus takes about sitting at the right hand side of Father God and interceding for us. I believe that as we pray with the Heaven language, we are actually joining with Heavens prayers - for ourselves, for those around us, for… Heaven knows what else! Sometimes I have a sense of what I’m praying about - sometimes I don’t: sometimes people recognise some of the words in their own earthly language, other times, people know exactly what is being prayed & will bring an interpretation.
Toward the end, I sing “To see your face, the glory of Your face.” Once singing / praying in Heaven language, sometimes other words can burst out…. Picturing His face as we worship is awesome. Seeing His face and meditating on it is the most fulfilling thing on earth!
If you have a sense of what else is being prayed using Heaven language, do let us know in the comments below.

Joy
Welcome to our live-streamed session of Cinematic Soaking Worship, where we blend live prayer, meditation, focus and study music. Today's session focuses on the theme of “Joy”.
We really felt a sense of joy today when doing this session! In the book of Nehemiah in the Bible, chapter 8v10, Nehemiah tells those gathered that “the joy of the Lord is their strength”. We experienced this time and time again - when encountering the Holy Spirit, there is a sense of deep JOY! It’s not the same as happiness or pleasure - it’s not on a surface level- it’s a super deep sense of contentment and joy that is despite any earthy circumstances - it’s when we focus on Heavenly things and take on His perspective. Our prayer is that you experience this Joy as you soak / pray / worship to this too.

Welcome to our live-streamed session of Cinematic Soaking Worship, where we blend live prayer, meditation, focus and study music. Today's session focuses on the theme from the book of James in the Bible - chapter 4 & verse 8 “Draw near to God and He will come close to you”.
We’ve always loved meditating on God & enjoying His presence. We are given the invitation to draw close to Him & the promise is that He will come close to us. The reality probably is more that as we spend time meditating on Him, our hearts, body’s and minds become more aware of His presence & He ‘feels’ super close. There have been times when I literally have had my breath taken away as I feel this immense sense of the BEAUTIFUL presence of God.
If this is something you’ve never done before - I challenge you! Close your eyes and ask God to reveal Himself to you. Dare to open your heart and my prayer is that you will never be disappointed with what you experience!

Best Soaking Worship Music | 35 Minutes Prayer & Instrumental
Welcome to our live-streamed session of Cinematic Soaking Worship, where we blend live prayer, meditation, focus and study music. Today's session focuses on the theme of being Immersed in the presence of God.
Find a comfy spot, sit or lie down, close your eyes, breathe deeply and try and fix your minds eye on God. If you need help with picturing Him - just ask Him to reveal himself. To some, this looks like light or feels like warmth or it might be the face of Jesus, the surrounding love & comfort of the Holy Spirit, or the HUGE perfect father’s arms.
As you focus in on God, ask him to ‘bath’ you in His love & your role is to let go and ‘soak’ in Him.

Come and Rest'
Finding REST in Jesus - Live Soaking Ambient Music for Sleep, Prayer & Meditation
Welcome to our live-streamed session of Cinematic Soaking Worship, where we blend live prayer, meditation, focus and study music. Today's session focuses on the theme from the book of Matthew in the Bible: Chapter 11 & verses 28-30. Jesus says, "Come to me all you who are weary and burdened and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls."
Almost every day, we get to the place where we are tired, weary & may often feel burdened too.
We love that promise that we can go to God in prayer and He will give us rest as we mindfully give him our burdens & worries… We can practice the act of giving Him our worries and actively trusting Him - even in the unknown, even in the pain of so much suffering around us. We can rest in the promise that He is good & that there is hope in Him - even beyond this life.
As we 'come to Him' we can allow His Spirit to fill our hearts and minds with His peace - His. peace that even that goes far beyond our own understanding. What a gift!
