Entering the Holy of Holies

Hey!

 

Oh my goodness God has been WORKING! So Raylee asked me to write a little bit about what’s been going on in my life to share with y’all so here is my testimony as of recently!

It was Sunday afternoon, I was getting ready to go to church and I was on the phone with Ray and her mom. She had told me the prayer that she has been praying, “God seap my knowledge of you from my head to my heart,” and hearing how it changed her life, I wanted that for my life too. So that night I went to church with the intention of knowing Jesus in my heart and having an encounter with him. That is just what happened. 

So we started worship and as always, I went over to the side to have space and to be by myself with the Lord. As soon as I closed my eyes and started focusing on being with the Lord, I heard Him say “don’t sing tonight, let me sing over you.”  I am a worship leader and so my passion is singing God’s blessings over people, So this was a challenge for me to just sit there quietly and listen to the songs that were being sung. Here’s where it gets exciting!

The first song they sang was “The Blessing” by Kari Jobe. Immediately, I understood why the Lord wanted me to be quiet. As I was sitting there alone with the Lord it felt like he was blessing my life through that song. It was so beautiful just appreciating the words. So as the Lord was singing this over me, I started praying “God, I want to know you in my heart and not just my head. Please seap everything that I know about you from my head into my heart.” As soon as I said that, I saw a vision. It was interesting because the vision didn’t fully complete itself until after service was over and I was talking about it with one of my friends. That just goes to show that we have to be patient with the Lord and not always expect everything to happen right away. But anyways, I saw Jesus in the temple, and then I saw the curtain in the temple rip in half, just like it did when Jesus died on the cross (Matthew 27:51). After that, it was like sand in an hourglass. I saw that vision fall from my head, through my body and into my heart. Once it landed in my heart, it was like the wind got knocked out of me. It took my breath away and I felt faint. A good faint, obviously. After that, I could feel the Holy Spirit awake and alive inside of me. It was such a surreal feeling, finally being able to feel that power inside of me after 18 years of life. 

I will tell y’all, after that experience with the Lord, I have felt like a completely different person. I have also been praying that the Lord will turn my desires into His desires, and I can really feel that now. Since Sunday I’ve been spending pretty much every waking moment with Him and it is so fulfilling. I want to let y’all know that spending time with the Lord doesn’t always have to look like sitting down with fancy pens and highlighters and reading your Bible. I have been doing alot of just conversing with Him through constant prayer and also watching videos and listening to podcasts and new worship music and just filling my life with things that always point me back to Him. I will include some things and people I have been listening to and I definitely recommend y’all try it! 

The Lord has been so faithful in showing Himself to me, I encourage y’all to pray that same prayer and just focus all of your attention on Him because it is so fulfilling. I am praying for every one of y’all and I know Raylee is too! Jesus loves you!!! -Sarah Quinn
