Intoxicate me with your love
Gods Spirit has shown me some unbelievable things that are about to take place in my life.
I cannot tell you what He has shown to me, but it's miraculous.
Sometimes we take the wonderful presence of the Lord in our lives for granted.
I mean every time I worship Him, His Spirit touches me in such a divine way.
My whole body is on fire, it feels like electricity is running through me.
I'm intoxicated by His love, and I just lie there on my bed drifting on floods of His holy tenderness, while my lips whisper words of love that rise from the very depths of my spirit.
I declare my love to Him, in tongues, the language of Gods Spirit.
But still when it comes to believing in a miracle, I start doubting.
The Holy Spirit actually touches me, what more do I need to believe?
He has also healed my body several times in the past.
I guess it's our old nature that's not used to living in the spiritual realms of God.
God always comes to our rescue when we start to doubt.
This morning He spoke to me and told me to read Hebrews chapter 11.
It's about all the great men and women who have believed God and in so doing received what was promised to them.
Miracles happened to them. Enoch was taken away from earth to dwell in Gods presence forever, because He pleased God by believing in Him. What a miracle!
“And without faith it is impossible to please God, because anyone who comes to him must believe that he exists and that he rewards those who earnestly seek him.” Hebrews 11:6
Why is faith pleasing to God? God speaks the truth, He is the truth.
When He promises us something He will keep His promise to us. He cannot lie.
When we don't have faith in Him we are insulting Him, calling Him a liar.
Only the devil is the father of all lies.
Many people wrestle with faith. They cry out for more faith, just like me.
But God showed me that we need to have faith in His capability of doing what He promised.
We should not have faith in our faith but in God. So let us believe like a little child in our awesome almighty Father.
God is a wonder; we are little wonders ourselves because He made us.
Nothing is therefore impossible to those who dare to believe in Gods almighty power.
Once you rest in Him knowing He will perform a miracle for you, you are ready to go into the world and do what Christ has shown us to do; preach the gospel, heal the sick, raise the dead, and even greater things.
I am waiting for Him to fulfill the promises made unto me. I know He's capable.
Are you waiting for your miracle too? It won't be long just hold on!
I know that it's hard to wait, so hold me tight, intoxicate me with your love, drift away with me on clouds of love and wake me up when the waiting is over.
Love, Monique Braam
