Encountering Jesus - Moving Naturally In The Anointing And Fire Of God

I have some questions for you.

- Are you discontent with your spiritual life?

- Does just going to church not satisfy the yearning deep in your heart?

- Do you feel that nothing seems to satisfy you anymore?

- Are you desperate for more of Jesus?

- Do you desire intimacy with Him but don't know how to go deeper?

- Do you want more supernatural signs and wonders in your life?

- Is your heart's desire to hear the voice of God?

- Do you want to encounter Jesus, move in His anointing and see beyond the natural into the supernatural and what is happening in the Heavens?

- Do you want to learn how to pray powerfully for others?

God wants to satisfy our longings and teach us how to do this. He wants to open our eyes to see in the Spirit to fulfill the Great Commission. He wants to show us how to intercede for the people around us and the nations. He wants to anoint us with the Fire of His power and presence. He wants us to become a people of revelation, longing for nothing else and no one else but Jesus.

Let's raise our hands in worship and thanksgiving to the Lord and ask Him to give us the desires of our heart. Ask the Holy Spirit to come touch and consume us and let more of His presence come.

PRAYER - Lord Jesus, we welcome the Holy Spirit and the fiery glory of Your presence. We welcome the Cross and the blood that You shed for us. We ask You to come and touch us, Lord. We need fresh winds and fresh visitations. We need a fresh touch of Your mercy and love. I ask that You meet everyone here and show Yourself to us. Show us how to understand the Holy Spirit and learn how to move in Your anointing. Let the Fire of God come with a fresh illumination of Your Word and impartation from the top of our heads to the soles of our feet so we can be a carrier of Your glory and presence as a walking flame of Fire. Teach us how to pray for one another. Open our ears so we can hear You through all the noise of this world. Give us Your eyes so we can see how You see people. Encourage us with how You love intimately and have a plan for our lives. I now ask that the Fire of Your anointing fall upon everyone here. Open our hearts to receive the fresh illumination and interpretation of Your Word so that we would be willing to meet face-to-face and feel what You feel. Amen!

I am excited when I come to church because it allows me to ask the Lord what He desires to do for that day and how I can pray over the people to receive what He wants to give. Every service is different. Every group of people is diverse. It is never the same and never boring because God is not boring. Sometimes people get bored, but God isn't.

God wants to give us fresh Fire and impartation of His heart. He wants to ignite our hands to be the hands of a servant for a hurt and dying world just as His hands were nailed on the Cross. He wants to anoint us with fresh oil and Fire to heal the sick.

He wants to commission us as carriers of the glory! He wants His glory and weight to settle around each of us. He wants us to know His presence. He wants to ignite a torch of Fire from His Throne Room inside each of us to be carriers of His glory and ignite our homes, churches, and cities for His purposes.

Do you seriously seek Jesus? Do you hunger and thirst for Him? Does your body yearn for Him like water in a dry and weary land? (Psalm 63:1)

"Come, all you who are thirsty, come to the waters; and you without money, come, buy, and eat! Come, buy wine and milk without money and without cost! (Isaiah 55:1 ESV)

Just working and pursuing money to buy things does not fill you up and satisfy the longings of your spirit or nourish you like food. You must eat what is good, and your soul will delight in the richest foods He provides (Isaiah 55:2)! Only Jesus can satisfy the thirsty and fill the hungry with good things (Psalm 107:9).

Tasting the heavenly gift and the goodness of God and His Word and sharing in the power of the Holy Spirit is not enough to get to Heaven (Hebrews 6:4-6). Genuine satisfaction in this life comes from the blessing of God upon those who earnestly desire His approval and do what He deems is right (Matthew 5:6). You must pursue righteousness and loving devotion to Jesus to find real life (Proverbs 21:21).
