The Importance Of An Encounter With God

By Myrtle Cash


An encounter with God refers to a personal experience that an individual usually has with the supreme God. This event is usually a life changing event, provided God was in it. Most people after this never turn to their bad old ways, because then, they get to taste they beauty of God and never want to miss it.

The experience may happen to many people in different situations. It may happen to people in a bad way or in a good way, but the intentions of the Lord for whatever happens are always clean. For instance, somebody who is a very heavy and destructive sinner may have been preached to severally in vain. Man may give up on him, but the Lord never will.

It is at this point that Christ takes the lives of these people out of His hands. He then leaves them to the world, which is of course controlled by the devil. The devil being one very ruthless creature, he takes these people through mighty torment. The kind of torment he gives them then makes these people realize that should they continue in practices similar to those, then they might die miserable in the devil. Such people hence turn to Christ.

The event may also be one very good one. Here, people who have been doing good and living according to the will of Jesus Christ are well rewarded. These people may have been working so hard at something. Some may have been praying so hard for some people to change and follow Christ. When this finally happens, these people then realize that it is the Lord that answered their prayer.

The people to whom this encounter happens may be those that are totally opposed to the existence of Christ, or to those that acknowledge that Christ indeed exists and is supreme above everything else. The people that do not believe that the Almighty exists are there. However, Christ still cares for them, because He is their creator. As such, he still does manifest to these people in a powerful way to make them realize that He is their creator.

People in the world are in two different categories. There are those that believe in the Almighty and those that do not. Those that do not may at times seek to transform those that belong to the Lord, so that they become just like them. Given that these people have been faithful to Christ, He can never leave them alone. These are the times when He comes to them and tells them that there he is, and that he shall never leave them.

These experiences normally come in different forms. Some may be in the form of miracles upon the life of an individual, while others may be in the form of events in the lives of others. However, most people normally wait upon the Lord to give them back their sight if they are blind, for them to believe that He is there. These are the kind of people that insist that God is not there, because they can never look beyond having him fulfill their desires.

An encounter with God is such an amazing experience. It comes in highly diversified ways. People may never get to realize the experiences, but a time finally comes for every individual. These are the times when people now choose to work and live for the Lord.
