SID: Hello. Sid Roth here. Welcome to my world where it’s naturally supernaturally. I call my guest, Julie True, a stress-buster psalmist because the presence of God is literally so tangible. But you know, Julie, that didn’t happen over night and I told you this, I surprised you actually on the radio interview, that someone told me that late at night after the family’s all put away, all your responsibility is over, you would slip out of your house to a cold barn in cold weather and worship God. Why? Why would you do that? It’s cold out there.
JULIE: Well I was desperate to know God more and, you know, it’s just a get-away in the midst of daily challenges. It’s a time to go and be still and be with God, and that’s how I learned to express my heart to God. And it started with sometimes old hymns and sometimes just singing scriptures, and sometimes it was just singing my heart to Him. But that’s where I grew with it. It was a secret place for me.
SID: And you told me before we did this TV show you were alone in your hotel room. Tell me what happened this morning.
JULIE: Oh I had a wonderful time with God this morning. And just, I think it started from I started writing in my journal thanking God. I feel like thankfulness opens up the heavens and it opens up things in the Spirit. And I just feel like it’s a principle. It has been for my life. And so I was thanking God for all that He’s doing and all that He’s showing me. Anyway, I just felt warm inside and felt like He was near in my room and it was just wonderful.
SID: You know what I feel? I feel that He’s on this set and I know that He’s going to invade you wherever you are right now. When Julie, and she doesn’t worship for people, she worships for God, and you can come along. When Julie does this, what are some of the things that are happening from people that hear your music?
JULIE: Well I’ve had marriages that have been healed and even pets that have been affected by my music, and there’s been Alzheimer patients, a suicide person who was getting ready to commit suicide and God stopped him in his tracks, and lots of people with sleep disorders that write me and tell me that my music has helped, an autistic situation.
SID: Tell me about Hope Seth and her baby.
JULIE: Well she said that she had tried a bunch of different music and she couldn’t get anything that her baby could sleep to, and so she started using my music and that was what helped her baby go to sleep.
SID: And I asked Julie before this television show, what is your favorite song from your new CDs? And, you know, and that’s very difficult for someone to do, but she immediately said one that is so special to me. Tell me the story behind “I Breathe You In”.
JULIE: Well my husband and I direct a healing ring in Franklyn, Tennessee where we minister each week, we pray over people who need physical or emotional healing and it’s all built around a time of soaking worship and prayer. And so we had started the healing rooms that day and I just was settling my own spirit. You know, a lot of times I do that to speak to my own self to be still and put my hope in God. And so I started to sing and I felt like the Lord just kept bringing up the scripture of “I abide in you and you abide in you.” And it’s as easy as just breathing. And so I began to sing, “I breathe you in, we breathe you in, and abide in you and abide in me.” And it just was a special moment for me.
SID: Julie, I believe if you would sing this song to the Lord right now and if you would breathe the Spirit of God in as Julie sings this song because it’s as easy as breathing the air. Do this by faith because there is such a presence of God in this studio. There’s such a presence of God on this worship. Let’s hear Julie True.

JULIE: [singing] We breathe you in, we breathe you in Holy Spirit. We breathe you in, we breathe you in to us. We soak you in, we soak you in to our beings to every cell. We soak you in, we soak you in to us. And we abide in you, you abide in us, I abide in you, you abide in me. I breathe you in Holy Spirit. I breathe you in as my life. I soak you in to the deepest part of me.
