After a tragic loss of my wife, i developed unimaginable fears in life, especially fear of losing,fear of getting close to someone and some other fears that i never thought existed, for 3 years and yesterday i heard this song for the first time and i played it again and again and at one point when i heard this phrase " For You are for us ,You are not against us" something happened to me, all my fears fell off me like chains that had a solid grip over my life. I AM FREE ---- JESUS HAS SET ME FREE.
Brother, this was such a great encouragement. I pray that you continue to pursue that freedom - freedom that is found in Jesus. With it comes assurance that even though I know that I don't know what the future will bring, I know the One who holds it:) God Bless.
Her lyrics are really inspired and inspiring. We can feel that each word touches an aspect of the life we are experiencing.I went through some emotional hurricane because of a realtioship a few years ago and the song "That's what you do" was very important.
What an anthem. This song really inspired me to step out of my comfort zone into where God wants me to be. Turns out this song was born out of a great struggle too. Another lesson: greater struggle yields greater testimony. Thank God and Amanda for this one!
Amanda! God speaks through you. Bethel Music and your gift of composing ARE blessing us. Thank you for making yourself pliable in God's hands. I have a daughter who has a calling in worship like you. I stand in faith that we ALL, the Body of Christ, will come to the reality of being loved by our Wonderful Father. Thank you!!
I always kinda knew Amanda felt all that i felt every time i listened to her. i struggled with fear and depression and her music helped rewire me to my truth, His love, His presence, His peace. I love you Amanda Lindsay Cook.
"The reward of saying "Yes" is greater than the regret of saying "No". A heart and Spirit so full of wisdom and beauty so as to be an inspiration for all people. Thanks Amanda. Praise be to the Living and true God, His Holy Spirit, and our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.
Fear. I fear being in Gods presence FULLY! It feels so unnatural because it is SUPERNATURAL ! It is an awesome feeling but I fear because I don't deserve that ! I don't deserve for Him to be living and breathing inside of me and preparing away for me time after time after time but this song makes me BRAVE !!!!!!!!!!! It is such an anthem for my life . I have been ran by fear ! I am exhausted from fear ! But God you are making me Brave day by day ! I love you God !
This song has been making me brave for the past 2 months...my grandma is dying she won't be here longer. She's one of my favorite people and this song just gave me strength to be strong. Thanks Amanda. You've made this situation easier for me. As well as God.
This song has changed my life more ways then one. The first time I was listening to this song I wasn't even listening to the words. I remember walking in my backyard talking to God, about my fears and struggles such as the question of "what if they don't listen to me or if they don't like etc...". Then it hit the course of the song, and I just paused and then busted into tears. And it was like answer was given to me. A promise was fulfilled. I wasn't scared anymore. I love how God work through song like these. Oh and this song is still my hearts cry today
It is so hard to watch Amanda Cook talk about fear, when the image I have of her was her confidence and conviction in "I Will Exalt You" when she released her first album (she was still Amanda Falk). What an encouragement and inspiration to hear the amazing Bethel Worship leaders bring it home, and affirm that when the lights and cameras go off, they are also simply Christians trying to live and walk with the Lord, and they encounter and overcome the same issues and struggles we do as listeners! I am really proud of Amanda, I love the song, I love her spirit and I am also definitely going to review areas I thought I would never overcome in my own life. If she could do it, so can I.
I love the music that God releases through the Bethel community. Everyone has been such a blessing to me! Especially Amanda Cook! When I listen to the music I have no doubt at all in my mind that you all are indeed friends of God. It's so evident that your music is an overflow of what takes place in your devotional lives. Your music shows YOU KNOW GOD. It's ministry unto the Lord, ministry for yourselves because through the songs God brings healing, wholeness, etc. and it's ministry unto others. I just read a comment about a man who lost his wife and dealt with fear and the anointing that produced this song destroyed the yoke of fear off that man. This is VERY encouraging for me, as one who I know the Lord has marked as a psalmist/musician. Thank you for all for being in a posture to receive such songs from the Lord.
Thank you so much for your obedience. This is my anthem for this year. I am in the middle of the storm and Your words, "you call me out beyond the shore into the waves". Resonates so deep within me. I'm asking God to show me what that means in the storm. The waves of uncertainty is so scary yet promising,
Yeah... one of the BEST worship songs that is written... still brings me to tears every time I hear it! It has an incredible impact on my soul... Thanks, Amanda...
An awesome song, I'm really excited to see God fill people like Amanda with these songs that usher in His presence. Before you know it, music like this will be overcoming the trash that is dominating the airwaves now.
One of the most powerful worship lyrics ever. Definitely one of my favorite worship songs. I had No idea she was so young wow, she looks like a teenager. Did she say she was 28? I love it how the Lord can use someone so young to be so mighty!
I love your song, it is truly one of my favorite songs! I have always struggled with fear as well, and your testimony is very relatable to me. Beautiful song and I love that picture of embracing God in the unknown, despite any fears and just letting his wave overtake you, knowing that He never fails and we can trust Him!
I have done so many sins and I have so many struggles I know God will forgive me and I believe that he will always be there sometimes I feel like is it real but now I know it is and I love God so much and this video is soooo amazing and this channel is great
this is a beautiful song. I'm glad God laid the lyrics on your heart and you decided to write it. It honestly has been my personal anthem to step out into those waters God has for me to walk on and to just let His powerful hit me like a full blown wave over and over again. God bless you Amanda
I first heard her sing this at the Lovely conference. It gripped me, I was struggling with anxiety and fear and she blew the roof off singing this song. I love this song!!!!!!!!! And the story. Thank you, Amanda Cook for writing this song. May it and it's message continue to spread into the nations and hearts of the hurting all over the world! I saw Amanda in the mall in Redding the other week, I wanted to hug her but refrained so I just fan girled her instead. :)
i have depression and anixity desorder for 11 years because of cocaine abuse , well i was posses with 6 demons then pastor pray for me i dont know if they left me or not ,i take 2 difrent meds for it my depresiion and stress .,im so tired of it, i want to serve Jesus with all my heart now i strugle but i know God have a way out for me!!! He did not give me a spirit of fear but spirit of love power and sound mind!!!
Yes you can . The word of the Lord says . I'll FORGIVE YOU for what you have done . Even if you have done something terribly wrong. I am here to forgive you.Come back to me. cheersssss. ☺😅😊 ISAIAH FORNEY
+Isaiah Forney we are praying for healing for you. God created us to live in community with others that speak truth, encouragement and love into our lives. Praying that your heart would be healed and that He would reveal to you a place that you can call your own. Blessings to you!
+Isaiah Forney Its very easy. Just ask the Lord to lead you to the right people. He will, He is a good Father. ) It might not necessary be a church it could be a home group. Just ask and wait on Him.
Prácticamente lo que dijo (largo hecho corto) es que ella batallo con temor por casi 28 años.. Y luego empezó a escribir esta canción y al comenzar era como una profecía a ella misma.. Después de un tiempo que se empezó a liberar de ese temor, una amiga le dio un cuadro profético que era ella en la orilla del mar y corriendo hacia el, lista para recibir la presión, las olas, etc.. Así empezó a tomar forma la canción.. Al final dice que "la recompensa de decir si! es más grande que la de decir no".
***** lol you guys are only your parents words! You're believing a man that you've never seen, because he's a character on a book that is ultra old. You need to update yourself and educate yourself. And I even have christians friends that are gay friendly! Please go out and make some friends because your life must not be really funny.... you live for yourself not others! THE ONLY WORDS YOU MUST BELIEVE ARE THE ONES THAT COME FROM YOUR HEART!!! not from a book that was written by someone you don't even spoke to one time! bye
to some one who is not familiar with the message of Bethel or Amanda Cook, the phrase - saying yes in the face of adversity is not very clear. Does any one know what that means? Saying yes to what or to the L-rd, that wasn't clear.
Кирилл Юрьевич I think it's a yes to being "overtaken by His love", to be willing to "embrace the revolution that's inside of them", and to let God in His love and sovereignty take and shape our lives and use it to bring glory to His name. Instead of hiding in fear and resisting what He is desiring to do in us.
+passionatehearts I hate to spoil your fun but I don't think what you are expiriensing over there is revivel. You and your friends are giving eveything away to WHO? The homeless - they will buy more drugs and alcohol with it if not weapons. Please read the scripture one more time BY YOURSELF, without the interpritation from the church or anyone else. Before that day of pentacost there was a church government in place apointed by Christ who distributed the wealth according to the needs of each member. AND they had their OWN homes to live in. They weren't a bunch of homeless vegabonds disattached from life and culture. Please read THE WHOLE gospel carefully my friend and not just those verses that make you excided.
+Nicole Baculima we speak His truth and love over you! You are His creation, His daughter and His heart is devoted to you. No matter what season you are in, keep pressing into Him. He will guide your steps and reveal His vision. Be encouraged and know that you are not alone!
The reward of saying "yes" is greater than the regret of saying "no"... God only needs our yes, not our excuses.

Bro that's awesome! I'm in a Starbucks and my hair is standing straight up! God is real and his love is magnificent. appreciate your post
Brother, this was such a great encouragement. I pray that you continue to pursue that freedom - freedom that is found in Jesus. With it comes assurance that even though I know that I don't know what the future will bring, I know the One who holds it:) God Bless.
Amen!
Alleluia! just stand firm in Jesus and in that freedom brother! God bless you!! :D
and He is going to give you whatever you´ll ever need ;)

"The reward of saying Yes is greater than the regret of saying No." - Lord, You made me brave
I keep coming back to this video... so anointed... she speaks pure truth
"For God gave us a spirit not of fear but of power, love, and self-discipline."
- 2 Timothy 1:7
I listen to this song whenever I'm afraid and feel like I cant do what God wants me to do. Thanks for this song Amanda. God bless.
"The reward of saying "Yes" is greater than the regret of saying "No". A heart and Spirit so full of wisdom and beauty so as to be an inspiration for all people. Thanks Amanda. Praise be to the Living and true God, His Holy Spirit, and our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.

What is the incredible music version in the back ground? Anyone know where to find that?
Wish someone could help us out with this! I want it!
Pete Morrison I think it's the instrumental of the song ''You make me brave '' sort of played slowly...
NO LE ENTENDI NADA PERO SE KE DEBE SER UNA HISTORIA ASOMBROSA, PORFAVOR, LOS LATINOS QUE LOS SIGUEN SON MUCHOS, PORFAVOR PONER SUBTITULOS. GRACIAS.
