Heaven is my throne and earth my footstool-Acts 7:49
The spirit of God fills the heavens and the earth...He is not just in one place. He is everywhere and always present.
Many years ago, I was on this lonely road near section 17 of Shah Alam when I had the encounter of the third kind..At that time overgrown trees, bushes and creepers still filled the landscape and that particular road was still basic -mud based, not concrete...That night, everywhere was quiet save for the incessant calls of the crickets and insects..I was travelling peacefully along this very dark and narrow road with the tall grass- lallangs, occasionally coming into the paths of my car, when suddenly a huge black boulder rose up before me like a great solid wall.
I was going to crashed right into it!Holy God, what was that? I send UP a frantic call for help followed by hysterical recitations of the Our Father..(somehow, I always believe that is the most powerful, self contained prayer ever) .I felt my car lifted up and then I must have passed out because beyond that,I could remember nothing). The next I knew, I was right in front of the traffic light in front of CCM (you guys remember The Chemical Company of Malaysia right?) not a scratch to my car nor was I hurt in anyway. I could still remember that moment...the traffic lights were bright red and then it turned green...
God, He is everywhere, when you totally surrender everything to Him, he takes charge and delivers. It may not be logical to some, but somehow, it always brings to mind Acts 7:49 "heaven is my throne and the earth my footstool. It is He who made the earth by his power, who established the world by his wisdom, and by his understanding stretched out the heavens-Jeremiah 51:15-16 .You do not need a church building to pray, God does not reside in one particular place. His Holy spirit is everywhere and He delivers...Believe me, He does, if you surrender yourself totally to Him, church, lonely road or busy street!
