LIGHT FOR THE WAY

TOPIC: SUPERNATURAL MANIFESTATIONS AND ENCOUNTERS
TEXT: I was in the
Spirit on the Lord’s Day, and heard behind me a great voice, as of a trumpet
(Revelation 1:10).
The presence and the
power of God are real. The Bible says anyone that comes unto God must believe
that He exists (Heb.11:6). The other day I heard a young man say that it’s
impossible for God to speak to a common man like him. But the fact is God is
real and speaks to us. That occurrence is supernatural all by itself.
Many shy away from supernatural
encounters with God that human power cannot control. Yet these occurrences were
frequent in the New Testament, so they do have their place today. Many early
Christians experienced it, causing their natural faculties to be temporarily suspended
under the power of God. During visions, both Paul and Peter experienced a
trance-like state (see Acts 10:10; 22:17). Paul and John were both caught up
into the realm of the spirit (see 2 Cor. 12:2; Rev. 1:10). We even see the
Roman guards fall under God’s power when they came to arrest Jesus (see John
18:6). Of course, we should clarify that while we welcome this type of
experience, we don’t want to go so far overboard that we get off base and begin
to behave disorderly. Others get so excessive with “falling under God’s power”
that they start to borderline on cultish practices. There are always the
extremes, but we don’t want to eliminate the genuine because of the fake
While this kind of
manifestation can be unusual at times, if it’s genuine you don’t have to try
and make it happen and it will accomplish miraculous results. We should welcome
and expect these occurrences to play a key role in bringing God’s tangible
presence to the world. And bring the kind of harvest of good things that no
human abilities can bring,
