 I have heard God several times spoke his words with instructions; I harkened and saw His manifestations. Saw things revealed by God, I believed Him with faith and they came to pass. In this kingdom, God expects us to share our firsthand experience had with Him and not just telling stories.
The big question now is what’s your experiential testimony? This is how tangible realities are proven. This truth factors into all ramifications of our lives as children of the highest and He expects the same impact to be wrought on everyone we encounter by the mandate which says, when the monarch of Zion(Jesus) is lifted high, He will draw men unto himself and this automatically becomes experiential reality.
There are consequences to what I’m saying and this is the singular reason why things do not turn out the way we expect most of the times. To bring to you a perspective about what the spirit of God is saying, is to say that, we need to touch the reality of the spirit having a firsthand experiential testimony because this is where our true stories began from heaven under via our, original ordination. The ordination is where the real power lies to change everything about life. The reason why most of us go out for evangelism and yet the lives of the people seems to go worst is not because the word of God is weak, fake or impotent, as a matter of truth, I know that conviction of souls is the ultimate workings of the Holy Spirit and I’m not disputing that, but we need to know that this book do not work because is God’s word but because also you responded. The equation is very simple, the solution is simply God’s work and your experiential testimony of the spirit of the book that you have encountered, determines what you have on the inside to give out to those out there anticipating for the result expected.
This is why lives are not transform in most cases because until these same words proceeds out of a holy hearts, they carry no power. John 1:12Â But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name:
KJV
You cannot be a recipient of the monarch and not acquire adequate power to influence your generation accurately. This power comes to you base on the experience you are having continuously with the one you have received. At this point, you are not alone but a host and a carrier of divine presence as you move around, that is what works and not you.
John 14:23
Jesus answered and said unto him, If a man love me, he will keep my words: and my Father will love him, and we will come unto him, and make our abode with him.
KJV
This is why we talk to people and they cry aloud without a physical weep, other times as we speak the word of God and remember the mercy of God that embraced and saved us out of darkness, our heart becomes heavy and the only way the Holy Spirit lighten it up, is to bring us to the place of brokenness where we could no longer express the gospel anymore in words but in tears even before our listeners. This is why when we preach; we do not tell about Jesus, He is not some form of history or a story but a tangible reality that has gone ahead to surpass time with his eternal purpose and ordination. Heb13:8 Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and to day, and for ever.
KJV
When it comes to reaching out to people, God expects us to have direct experience of Him so that we can be clothed with grace to spread the Gospel with power and authority with divine influence. When we acknowledge that greater is he that is in us, our perspective will change. This is why we do not tell about Him, we give Him to people because we carry Him. Do not forget that you cannot give to someone what you do not have or carry. John 1:12 But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name:
KJV
As many as received him simply means, to every recipient there must be a sender, better put to every receiver, there must be a giver. So we give Jesus to men and not to tell those stories about Him because when we tell, is an abstract assumption but when we give, it becomes a tangible reality and this is what I call experiential testimony.
It may be proper to extract history and to tell explicitly and accurate stories about the past prophets and other outstanding events and occasions from the books but would be an absolute error, when you place the person of Jesus Christ in that same category. This is because, from where we had already read, he is the same yesterday, today and forever more, he does not exist in time but runs through eternity. This is why the Bible in the book of Acts 17:28 For in him we live, and move, and have our being. For we are also his offspring. Col 1:17 And He is before all things, and by Him all things consist. John 1:3 All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made.
KJV.
These scripture simply means, even things that are yet unseen, things not yet manufactured, innovated, evented, created and not conceived on the hearts of men, yet Jesus was before them and all things consist in Him. Jesus is not a past event but he lives in me forever and I do not know about you.
The one we carry, possess us with His spirit and always want us to interact with Him in all we do, as we eat, drink, live our lives, move around and exist , he wants to be involve. Amos 3:3 Can two walk together, except they be agreed?
KJV.Â
Jesus wants to form the border around our lives and the way to do this and to be part of what He is doing, is to acknowledge Him in all our ways to enable him direct our path in the journey of this great assignment given to us in this kingdom we found ourselves. Prov 3:6 In all thy ways acknowledge Him, and He shall direct thy paths.
KJV
Until we receive Jesus Christ and be redeemed, we cannot be adopted as sons by the father through discipline. This is the criteria of those who would be able by grace to experience such a testimony to be reckoned with. This has always been the expectation on the heart of God, that man should come to a point of knowledge where he acknowledges that he is a dependent being that is helpless, hopeless and sufficient being without Him, so He can work his mightiness upon man but is quite unfortunate that, most of us do not know that there is a reality in the realm of the spirit that can only be obtained by the monarch who giveth to all men.
You need an experience that would command your world to respond to you and your calling birthed by your original ordination which would come to lime light.
NB: If you just read this piece and God is spoke to you as one who has deviated from his ordination, then you need to locate my blogpost on YOUTH AND REDEDICATION but if you are here not yet born again, then these few lines of prayer below is for you.
PRAYER
Lord Jesus, I have heard your knock again at the door of my heart and with your small still voice calling me. I accept you as my lord and personal savior, forgive my sins, re-write my story from heaven afresh, as I align to my assignment in this kingdom by your grace, help me to have day to day experience with you and not do anything without you, be involve in all my affairs, Amen.
