Greetings to you in Jesus' name
In my previous post i was speaking about my sadness for those whom i am praying for that don't know Jesus, & more recently my increasing awareness that not many Christians know or understand yet, who they truly are and/or the finished work of the cross. I personally know this truth because for many years i poured out my love & heart to God in prayer in the early hours of the mornings. Yet i still felt he was up there or somewhere in heaven, and i was down here all alone.
Until many years later when i returned back to God like the prodigal son, God promised me with a scripture spoken too me by a Pastor in the book of Isaiah, that He(God) is going to do a new thing etc etc. However he required of me to do one thing for him in order to bring this new thing too pass. To forget my past and remember not the former things of old as quoted in the scripture.
Firstly, the Holy Spirit begun to reveal himself too me in a powerful, fun loving way. God began to show me the importance of the Holy Spirits role in my life and how Jesus made the way for God to send the Holy spirit to come dwell in each of us. God then began to teach me about the importance of knowing his enemy Satan, how he works and how he operates in peoples lives.
Then one day the Holy Spirit said to me " I am going to reveal Jesus to you!" I was shocked, because i thought i already knew Jesus? He's my lord, my saviour, my king and many other things I CAN THINK of.....However this is not what the God had in mind! God wanted to reveal his son Jesus too me, in the same way he knows Jesus! (Read that last passage again!)
While all this was happening over periods of time & not just days. God asked me one night before closing my eyes for sleep in a soft gentle voice "Can i be your Daddy?"
I broke down in tears and my heart was filled with his love, but my only reply i could say was "But i don't know how to be a son?" (I grew up with no Father & my mother did not know how to care for me, so i did not know how to be a son because i had too grow up fast in a violent past)...then again in that soft spoken voice God said to me " That's ok, i will teach you "...meaning show me!
To be continued
