Experiencing
If you were at our morning services this morning (Sunday 22nd January), you will have heard me talking about how we can experience more of the presence of God. You can listen or download the talk by clicking here. I promised during that talk to put the four key points that I drew out from the story of the woman who was bleeding (Luke Chapter 8 verses 43 to 48) on my blog so here they are:
She wanted it (verse 43)
She pressed in for it (verse 44)
She accessed it (verse 44)
She was changed by it (verse 47)
The 'it' here is the power and presence of God through the Holy Spirit.
If we are to experience and encounter God's presence in our lives we need to want it, press in for it, access it and be changed by it! I can't wait!
Please do leave any stories or feedback here (you need to be logged on to do so) about your experiences with the presence of God.
God bless

 | | Ruth Edgson | 04/02/2012 00:22 | I have a testimony to share with everybody; on this Sunday morning in the time we were waiting on God I experienced God physically. I was swaying and trembling. Also I came forward for prayer after the service. At the moment I am acting as a manager for the company I work for as my boss is signed off sick. The following week was extremely stressful. After feeling the presence of God and being prayed for the following working weeks I have felt peaceful, God has given me His confidence & self - control.
Just to encourage you please don't be frightened of what the Holy Spirit does. The Holy Spirit, Jesus and the Father are One. He only wants the best for us because He loves us so much.
