What is BLISS? It's a heavenly joy! (Something that is tangible!)
Let's be INTOXICATED WITH BLISS!
"You prepared a table for me over against those who afflict me, you anointed my head with oil, and your cup was supremely intoxicating." (Psalm 23.5)
"And overwhelming astonishment and ectasy seized them all, and they reconized, and praised and thanked God; and they were filled with and controlled by reverential fear and kept saying, We have seen wonderful and strange and incredible and unthinkable things today!" (Luke 5.26)
"Don't drink too much wine. That cheapens your life. Drink the Spirit of God, huge draughts of him. Sing hymns instead of drinking songs! Sing songs from your heart to Christ. Sing praises over everything, any excuse for a song to God the Father in the name of our Master, Jesus Christ." (Ephesians 5.18)
So there is three passages that talk about being intoxicated with the "goodness" being so filled with Gods spirit that it's intoxicating.. Christ has the good wine! There is no age limit for drinking in the spirit of God. The presence of God can really do anything. Just because, everything is not recorded in the bible of the works of the Holy Spirit that Jesus perfomred doesn't mean it can't happen. The more and more we obey the Holy Spirit, the more we shall see unravel.
Anything can happen with Christ.. You can be so filled up to the point where you are intoxicated, you can be healed from cancer..There really is NO limit to the power of God and what He can do. This is just one example of the power of God and what He can do! "For NOTHING is impossible with God" (Luke 1.37) When we accept Jesus Christ as our Lord and Savior and become born again, we recieve all the power and authority from Jesus, because His spirit dwells in us. So then we can go out and fill the great commission that it talks about in(Mark 16.15-18) "He said to them, “Go into all the world and preach the gospel to all creation. Whoever believes and is baptized will be saved, but whoever does not believe will be condemned. And these signs will accompany those who believe: In my name they will drive out demons; they will speak in new tongues; they will pick up snakes with their hands; and when they drink deadly poison, it
will not hurt them at all; they will place their hands on sick people, and they will get well.”
There ya go. Jesus has given us everything already so lets take that authority and go fill the great commission and then signs and wonders will follow. Christianity is not supposed to be a complicated thing... We just need to start taking little steps of faith instead of withholding ourselves then we can see these things happen.
"And God said to Moses, I AM WHO I AM and WHAT I AM, and I WILL BE WHAT I WILL BE; and He said, You shall say this to the Israelites: I AM has sent me to you!"( Exodus 3.14) We just need to have the faith, everything is provided already. We have been baptized with Christ- When Christ died on the cross He took our sickness and sins on the cross. Then when He died and rose again, He didn't come back with sickness or death. So we should BELEIVE that everything can be healed, because sickness is NOT from God. "Sickness has no authority or power, because it's already been taken, so we are FREE! He has already accomplished our healing, so we should live in that absolute freedom and not worry about sickness or anything else that comes our way.. Shoot we can drink deadly poison and be ok! (Don't try it!)
When does the true freedom come? When we start having a TRUE relationship with Christ. Not one wavering back and forth, and not having all of our trust in God. He wants it all. It means renewing your mind daily (Romans 12.2), and telling yourself that you do beleive the promises of God. (We worship what we fear.) That you are chosen and a royal (1 Peter 2.9). Once you get to a point where your faith is so high, and this stuff dosen't even phase your mind anymore, that's when you start to see the miraculous. The Holy Spirit is already inside of us, we just have to have the faith to activate what's inside dwelling in and through us.
Then in these times, if we don't rejoyce with victory the enemy will come in, so that's why we must always be soaking in the presence of God or as Georgian Banvo calls it a: "love spa." Everything in life, is about Jesus and the Holy Spirit. The more we obey Him, the more easier life gets. The more time we spend with Him, the more we know His heart.
<span class=" fbUnderline">Psalms 126</span>
it was like a dream!
We were filled with laughter,
and we sang for joy.
And the other nations said,
“What amazing things the Lord has done for them.”
Yes, the Lord has done amazing things for us!
What joy!
Restore our fortunes, Lord,
as streams renew the desert.
Those who plant in tears
will harvest with shouts of joy.
They weep as they go to plant their seed,
but they sing as they return with the harvest.
