Ascend - In the Bible [Verses & Devotional]
The song “Ascend” by Bethel Music is a powerful reminder of the hope we have in Jesus. The lyrics invite us to come and see our Lord and King, who is reigning in glory. We are encouraged to lift up our eyes and see that His kingdom is coming. The chorus reminds us that we will ascend the hill of the Lord and declare His holy word with clean hands and pure hearts. We will see God.
The Bible tells us that we can have hope in Jesus. Romans 5:5 says, “And hope does not put us to shame, because God’s love has been poured out into our hearts through the Holy Spirit, who has been given to us.” We can have hope in Jesus because of His love for us.
The bridge of the song reminds us that when we see Him, we will be like Him. 1 John 3:2 says, “Dear friends, now we are children of God, and what we will be has not yet been made known. But we know that when Christ appears, we shall be like him, for we shall see him as he is.” We can have hope that one day we will be like Jesus and we will know what true love is.
The song “Ascend” is a beautiful reminder of the hope we have in Jesus. We can have hope that one day we will ascend the hill of the Lord and declare His holy word with clean hands and pure hearts. We can have hope that one day we will be like Him and we will know what true love is. Let us fix our eyes on Jesus and give our lives to Him.
