UNCONDITIONAL LOVE

for everyone

I accepted Jesus Christ as my Lord and Savior when I was 18. I entrusted Him my entire life. A few months later as a university student I happened to be at some charismatic meeting where people were praying for baptism in Holy Spirit. I decided to open up for this prayer ,although I had no idea what it was at that time, and when they were praying over me with their hands laid on my head I sank in prayer too. What I soon felt trespassed my all senses, emotions and imagination. Suddenly I was all immersed in Vast Loving Presence, so pleasant, joyful, happy, warm , peaceful One that I felt absolutely and completely HAPPY.YES, ABSOLUTELY AND COMPLETELY HAPPY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It was like heaven!!! I could not contain all this happiness. Yes, it was the Living Holy Spirit- the Spirit of Love and Joy that I was 'drunk' with.

One can hardly compare it to anything because nothing compares to this LOVE I felt. Let me just tell you that my whole being was so thankful to God that I answered back with incredible amount of joy and prayer. I started praying in tongues too.This song of praise that flew from me ,totally without any or with very little effort on my side, was there in me day and night. Hard to explain but I would sleep at night and there my soul remained awake expressing gratefulness and love to the One who had loved me first. I just could not help praying or actually praising this only LOVE.

There came healing too. Times of past pains and sorrows kept returning to me as short flashes but only to SEE that all these times Jesus was there next to me.He had been with me all the times when I felt rejected and hurt. He was there by my side, compassionate and loving.

My journey with Living God started like this. It is not finished. All I have not been able to stop doing since that time is praising the Living, Loving God for all His free grace for me.

Dear Malga,

Your message about receiving the Baptism of the Holy Spirit is so very precious! My experience was very similar to yours. I had been a Christian for many years and was serving the Lord with my husband and children in our home church. The Lord began to show me the scriptures about receiving the Baptism in the Holy Spirit, and I became more and more hungry to be filled with the Holy Spirit. At a service where Spirit-filled believers worshipped, at the invitation made by the minister, I went down front to ask Jesus to fill me with the Holy Spirit. He filled me that night, and the joy that filled my heart is indescribable. I had never felt so much love and joy before in my life, although I had known the love of Jesus and my Heavenly Father since I had been saved. Receiving the Baptism of the Holy Spirit is such a tremendous experience. It helped me witness to people about Jesus, and I had been somewhat shy about witnessing before. Like Jesus said in Acts 1:8, " But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes upon you. And you will be my witnesses, telling people about me everywhere—in Jerusalem, throughout Judea, in Samaria, and to the ends of the earth.” That is exactly what happens, the oil of the Holy Spirit gives us the power to witness of Jesus and to overcome in our daily lives.

I spoke a few words in tongues that night, but as I was before the Lord in prayer as time went on, within a week or two, I was speaking in tongues with much more fluency. And the joy of the Lord just kept coming!!! Glory to His Wonderful Name!!! Thank you for sharing your experience in receiving the Baptism of the Holy Spirit. We all need His power in the dark days in which we live, as the Word of God says it will be just before Jesus comes back for His Bride. We remain His witnesses and love Him more and more regardless of what is happening in the world. We are in this world, but not of it, Jesus said.

Your sister in Christ, Yeshua,
