Every year, in my Church (Atlantis Heart Ministries), we celebrate the Pentecost with a 10 days festival. Which include an evening service everyday.
This year, the celebration started on the Pentecost Thursday, the 18 May 2023, with the culmination on Sunday 28 May 2023.
The Pentecost celebration is always filled with the presence of the Lord and many miracles take place. I would like to share my personnel feelings, testimonies and messages from this celebration.
DAY 6 – Peace
We started the service by a praise and worship session, and once more I was touched while worshipping. Amazing feeling, I love it. I was transported to my “Happy Place”, on top of my mountain, looking down on the valley.
Pastor started to sing, and the church community joined in singing:
Somebody is here and I know it is Jesus Somebody is here and I know it’s the Lord Somebody is here and I know it is Jesus Somebody is here and I know it’s the Lord He is mine, He is mine I can feel Him in my heart, I can feel Him in my soul He is mine, He is mine Jesus, my Lord is mine.
I could hear pastor telling the folks that they had to put more heart, they had to believe that the Lord was here. But they just sang louder, with no conviction…
So I was sitting on my rock, on top of the mountain in my “Happy Place”. When a voice came to me… “Does it sounds like I am with them ?” I startled and froze. My answer to the question was NO but I could not answer. The voice asked again: “Do you think they really believe that I am there with them. They say I am theirs, do they believe it ?”. I still could not answer. The voice went quiet, I used that opportunity to look behind me. It was the first time, I actually looked around me in my “Happy Place”. When I am transported there, I am attracted and focused on the serenity of the valley. I never felt the need to look around. But it is beautiful on my mountain top: trees, bushes, lots of flower. Everything is so colorful, it is exquisite and serene. Unfortunately I could not see anybody, could not see who was talking to me.
I spent some time there, in my “Happy Place”, finally the folks sang with their hearts, it sounded so different and better. Then I heard the voice again, it said: “that sounds better !”. I did not heard that voice again that evening. I finally rejoined my body, and went on my knee.
God, through pastor, indicated that He wants to give us His peace. We were all touched by the Lord. And once again, I felt on the floor. I was experiencing an amazing feeling, it was like I was so light that I could fly. I feels like I was empty, nothing to pull you down, no worries, no thoughts of family, work, finances……
John 14:27
27. Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid.
Jesus, before leaving earth told the disciples, that He will leave the Holy Spirit and His peace behind. And tonight God made us experience, what does it feel to have peace in our hearts.
Thank you Lord for your teachings.
Thank you Lord for your presence and your touch.
Thank you Lord for loving me.
Thank you Lord for the gift of the Holy Spirit.
Thank you Lord for your peace.
In Jesus’ name
Amen
