Jesus Second Call
But God had further plans for me in this life. He is full of surprises!

Just like the Word of the Lord came to Jonah the second time (Jonah 3:1); Jesus called me the second time too. This is what happened when Jesus recommissioned me about a year ago: We were deep in worship Sunday morning at church, Calvary Spokane. We were singing a song about being on our knees before Jesus in worship. All of a sudden I was in vision, in the Spirit. Jesus came to me. My eyes were closed. I saw myself on my knees, before Jesus (in His mortal/ resurrected body). My eyes were about knee level. He then 'said' to me, not with words, Spirit to spirit. "Come up here."
Immediately I was standing before Him face to face.

Jesus said to me, not with words, Spirit to spirit. "I still have more for you to do." (I knew immediately I was not dying, and Jesus would give me more years of life here.) Jesus said, "Tell of My mercy." (I knew immediately He was specifically talking of 20 years ago when His mercy healed me of terminal cancer.) Then, Jesus said to me, "Tell of my grace." ( I knew immediately that these past 20 years I have lived and had any success in life only by His grace. God has carried me on eagles wings of grace.) ..... Then Jesus said, "Tell of My forgiveness." Immediately I knew the specific sins, so grievous to me, were as if they never happened. HE HAS FREED US BY HIS BLOOD FROM OUR SINS..... I'm so grateful.

This mercy, grace, forgiveness... the Love of God which is Christ Jesus our Lord was revealed to me as unfathomably powerful always flowing to us, like a mighty river, an ocean which we are receiving continually. (IN HIM WE LIVE AND MOVE AND HAVE OUR BEING. Acts) Then, I came out of the vision and was aware of standing in church again, singing to Jesus.
We read of His power, we live it, we experience it. This love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord is even more profoundly powerful than we can fathom; infinite power. GOD IS LOVE. IT IS FINISHED, Gods mercy, grace, forgiveness was blown into the universe 2,000 years ago from Jesus on the cross... forever, and ever....

... GOD, WHO IS RICH IN MERCY, BECAUSE OF HIS GREAT LOVE FOR US EVEN WHEN WE WERE DEAD BECAUSE OF OUR OFFENSES MADE US ALIVE TOGETHER WITH THE MESSIAH (BY GRACE YOU HAVE BEEN SAVED) RAISED US UP WITH HIM, AND SEATED US IN THE HEAVENLY REALM IN MESSIAH JESUS, SO THAT IN THE COMING AGES HE MIGHT DISPLAY THE LIMITLESS RICHES OF HIS GRACE THAT COMES TO US IN THE MESSIAH JESUS. FOR BY SUCH GRACE YOU HAVE BEEN SAVED THROUGH FAITH. THIS DOES NOT COME FROM YOU, IT IS THE GIFT OF GOD... (Eph. 2:4-8 ISV)
