Revelations

Indeed, Easter had always been a time for reminder of how Jesus endured the Cross till all of us are redeemed and washed clean from our sins, shame and guilt.

He endured the Cross so we could live.

He endured the Cross so we can be rich

He endured the Cross so we can be healthy

He endured the Cross so we can be blessed

The Cross was widely known by believers as the Great place of exchange. Looking upon the Cross, I could literally see and feel how great a love God has for everyone of us.

I was reading my bible today on my way to school. While i was boarding the bus, i felt led by the Holy Spirit to read this verse (Ephesians 3:3-5). I flipped open my bible and there and there as i read, i was remembered i was "day dreaming" about the RAIN that fell upon the the church during one of Pastor Ulf's meeting. Pastor was explaining that this rain was a supernatural encounter as he saw silver drops of rain falling upon the people but as he reached his hand to feel it, it wasn't there. But most amazing thing is that they were INDOORS! They were not in an open field!

As i read the verse, i was shocked for a moment. The day dream that i had before boarding a bus was actually used by God to illustrate something to me. He explained that this kind of encounters are to illustrate the revelation of the Holy Spirit to His people. All the revelations are given through the Spirit. These revelations are given through His apostles and prophets to reveal the nature and character of God which are beyond words of description most of the time.

Visions and dreams serves very well in these cases. Like the saying goes "A picture speaks a thousand words". No wonder God always gives us visions and dreams. I believe these visions serves one purpose: God wants us to catch the Spirit and fire behind it!

Catch this fire and come into the ultimate purpose of God in our lives today! :)
