Meet
Jesus: Mystical
Matthew
3: 16: And Jesus, when he was baptized, went up straightway out
of the water: and, lo, the heavens were opened unto him, and he
saw the Spirit of God descending like a dove, and lighting upon
him: 17: And lo a voice from heaven, saying, This is my beloved
Son, in whom I am well pleased.
At times a
relationship with Jesus can get a little mystical. Doves, spirits,
voices from heaven, and the heavens being opened all make for a
mystical moment. Jesus transcends what we see on a daily basis.
He operates in heaven and earth simultaneously. That may throw our
normal pattern, but be thankful that He is access to the Father
in heaven and the Holy Spirit on earth at once to affect our lives.
ACT!
Need anything from heaven? Some things we need don't exist
right now on earth. Jesus is access to heaven. Ask the Father for
the impossible in Jesus. Go ahead and plan the rest of the day as
if you had it.
PRAY!
Our
Father, who is in heaven, Holy is Your name. Cause the heavens to
open for me in my life. Cause Your Holy Spirit to brood over my
life and cause chaos to come to order. Release all You are in heaven
and earth in me that Your will would be done here even as it is
there.
