The Power of God’s Word: A Transformational Experience
This morning in the silence of relationship with God, suddenly a voice burst into my heart and echoed loudly “What miraculous deed do you want Me to do for you?”
When I heard the Lord’s voice, I wept bitterly before His presence. Somehow, I feel that it is testing my heart once again. Suddenly there was a prayer or words that I knew exactly didn’t come from me, but from the Holy Spirit, saying “Lord, You don’t need to prove anything against me, I just want to know You and become one with You for I love You more than anything.”
Then I heard God responding to that prayer with a promise “I will raise more people who love Me sincerely through your life.”
Instantly the spiritual atmosphere in my room underwent a tremendous change. I felt that there were many presences of various divine dimensions and heavenly beings. Like there was a big celebration that suddenly happened.
I now understand more and more, the meaning of the verse below:
Jeremia 15:16 (NKJV) Your words were found, and I ate them, and Your word was to me the joy and rejoicing of my heart; For I am called by Your name, O Lord God of hosts.
The phrase ‘Your name’ in Hebrew, Shem, which has the meaning:
a. Reputation, fame, glory
b. Memorial, monument
So, it can also be interpreted as a person’s reputation built by God because he responds to His Word or calls to reveal His glory, so that his life will be a sign or reminder that God is real and He is still working. Other people who interact with him will also enter a dimensional portal that will bring the other person to see and experience the knowledge of the same God.
I am increasingly motivated to focus on building a reputation before God’s presence. Where our lives always please God and continue to focus on loving Him and living in the reality of God’s throne room. It is there that we live to reign over the face of this earth. In this way, the dimension of God’sovereignty will become more evident in us.
1 Kings 17:1 (NKJV) And Elijah the Tishbite, of the inhabitants of Gilead, said to Ahab, “As the Lord God of Israel lives, before whom I stand, there shall not be dew nor rain these years, except at my word.”
Notice, out of nowhere Elijah appears. We never know the exact origin of this person. Suddenly he appeared before king Ahab to proclaim God’s Word and demonstrate God’s sovereignty.
I feel, the same thing will happen. God will raise up people who build a divine reputation before His presence. They are not people who focus on building an ‘outward reputation’, they are not famous or even before man. But they are very well-known by God because they always serve God and live before
His presence. They are people who really only love the person of God very sincerely!
Matthew 5:8 (TLB) Happy are those whose hearts are pure, for they shall see God.
1 John 3:2 (NKJV) Beloved, now we are children of God; and it has not yet been revealed what we shall be, but we know that when He is revealed, we shall be like Him, for we shall see Him as He is.
Romans 8:19 (NKJV) For the earnest expectation of the creation eagerly waits for the revealing of the sons of God.
Our existence that is similar to Christ, where it is no longer we who live, but Christ, will make many people experience God’s touch. They will also be connected with the knowledge of the same God so that they are saved from evil days, difficult times, and darts from the devil. We ourselves will become a ‘portal’ of encounter between them and God.
Acts 2:21 (NKJV)And it shall come to pass That whoever calls on the name of the Lord Shall be saved.’
