RECEIVING AND GIVING THE BREATH OF GOD #939/ EMBRACING THE FATHERS HEART WITH DR GEORGE WATKINS

RECEIVING AND GIVING THE BREATH OF GOD

 

  The Bible is full of images and pictures in our minds that we can see the workings of God throughout the history of man. One of the very first pictures we carry in our minds is the creation of Adam. We are told that God formed him from the dust of the earth; as we read that, we can visualize the action that took place; God forming man in his image.

It's where the dynamics change as God releases his spirit by breathing into Adam the breath of life. We can visualize gods release of his spirit into the spirit of Adam, and he became a living soul.

Among the wonderful images I see in the New Testament is the book of acts where Pentecost happened. In the upper room where the faithful gathered, waiting for the promised gift from heaven, the Holy Spirit. Suddenly a mighty wind blew through the room; God again exhaled into the spirits of men, and they became new creatures in Christ.

Now take a picture of the modern carrier of that same breath, the preacher, the witness, the housewife, the next-door neighbor, anyone who declares Christ to the world around them. As they breathe out the gospel's message, the same breath released into Adam, and those in the upper room, comes forth from the mouth of those who proclaim his name.

You and I carry the same breath that God has within himself because he lives in us and speaks as we speak. Did not Jesus tell us that we could do greater works because we now could go to the father in Jesus's name? 

Didn't the scriptures tell us, "as Jesus is, so are we in this world?"

Of course, it does.

So when someone tells you to take a deep breath, you're not just breathing in oxygen. You're breathing in the presence of the Lord. How can I say that?

Because you and I live in his presence continually.

And when you speak, remember, the breath that you used to speak his name and his word is the breath of God going into those that stand around and listen.

Exhale, my friends, and watch the world around you change.
