fire of God... |
Reply | Quote |
i was baptized in the holy spirit with the initial evidence of speaking in another tongue year or so ago, but i have been praying for the fire that the disciples experienced in the upper room on the day of pentecost... then while i was in a revival service only days after i had prayed that, the minister was talking about the fire of God and he said something about letting God give you a new heart, so i put my hand on my heart and pictured myself, in the spirit, taking out my heart and God putting in a new one... i acted this out in the physical... and just then a peace swept over me... then i asked God to change me deeper and take me deeper in intimacy with Him and just kept saying "deeper, God, deeper" over and over... just then a heat wave came over me from the outside and i went down and started laughing under the power of the Holy Spirit... some thoughts from my past started to creep in and i felt like crying then, but i spoke out loud, "Lord, let laugh at all the things that have ever made me cry."... just then i laughed again and harder, uncontrollably i might add... i got up and was a little drunk feeling... the rest of the night and all the next day, i just felt so in love, so calm, so peaceful... in spite of everything around me... one of my friends came and we rode to church together and in the car i was telling her about everything that was happening and what God was doing in me, and how exciting it all was, just then we began praying in The Spirit, and my left arm started feeling funny, i was trying to explaing it to her, and the only way i could tell her was that it was like what Jeremiah said about the word of God being like a fire shut up in his bones... it literally felt like someone had rubbed the bones in my left arm down with icy hot... it was so awesome... that was all happening since sunday and it is now friday, and i still have that feeling in my arm... another friend mentioned to me before she knew what all i had prayed about giving God my heart, that the left arm is where heart symptoms generally show up... "if a person is having a heart attack," she explained, "the pain goes down the left arm..."... it's like God has given me a new heart that is flaming with His fire... His annointing... His Holy Spirit which is changing me from the inside out and the "symptoms" are showing up in my left arm... anyways, "[we overcome]by the... word of [our testimonies]..." so i just thought i'd share what God is doing... God is truly alive and longing to touch, with fire, those who seek after Him and give up the control of their lives to Him.

That is awesome, Adrienne. I hope many people take what you said seriously. God is bringing his people into deeper realms of intimacy with Him- where His manifest glory presence is.
God Bless,
Austin
