“Paraphrase: cling to God like a belt clings to a person's waist (Jeremiah's girdle imagery).”
Love That Cannot Be Silenced with Extended Worship | David Thomas | Hillsong Australia
David Thomas exhorts the congregation to pursue a tenacious, heart-broken form of prayer—what he calls travailing prayer or a “love that cannot be silenced”—arguing that sustained, repentant, tearful intercession is the groundwork for revival. Drawing on a recent outpouring at Asbury, historical awakenings, and a Gospel story of a desperate father, he invites Hillsong to reclaim persistent prayer, expect God’s presence in worship, and commit to praying until breakthrough comes.
