Encounters With Jesus 1

Jul 28, 2019    Adam Broadley

When we encounter Jesus we don't just encounter him and his being, we encounter a new way of life. We encounter all of him and everything about him.

Active obedience is needed If we are to push forwards in our pursuit of God and bringing his kingdom to earth. It brings us into a new level of relationship with Jesus. To be active is to be constantly stepping out , being responsive to what the spirit is saying. Peter demonstrates a continuous obedience to the lord when he meets with Jesus on the water, this wasn't his first encounter. He was obedient from before and in his active pursuit of God he met with Jesus on the water.

We must see what the Father does first to know what to do. We must listen to what the Father is saying to know what to say. Encountering Jesus and his spirit can happen regularly. It's a journey and one moment in Christ does not make it, it does not mean the work is done. It should be the catapult for more encounters and so we can be encounters for other people and be gods hands and feet on earth.

There will be opposition when you step out in faith and respond to the spirit, but what will be manifested from the encounters and the work that will be done from the active obedience massively outshines that. It's worth it. Be active.
