There is no GOD???

I have been thinking lately about those individuals who seem to have no idea what their life would be like without God. I am talking about those who people who don’t believe there is a God.

God is around us 24/7. His fingerprints are on everything that surrounds us everyday. His omnipresent Spirit is everywhere, his angels are "silently" and constantly watching over us (well most of the time silent) and even down to our next breath... God has created. Our breath something we so often take for granted is a gift from God. No matter if we are deserving or undeserving of it God gives it.

When a person says there is no God, they really have NO idea what their life would be like with the absence of God in their life.

Knowing there is a God, do you know what it would feel like if God made himself absent from you? Absent meaning you could not experience this life as you are currently experience in God's grace and power that some of us take for granted or deny in one way or another.

Do you know what it would feel like in the absence of God? Do you know what would happen to the things around you?

Things would rapidly die. Creation is dependant on God. If God made himself absent, it would be like pulling the plug on a vacuum cleaner and throwing it off a ship into the deepest part of the ocean to sink to the bottom but even that would not go far enough to explain God's presence in our lives.

People who walk around and claim there is no God can’t possibly understand or see the power of God unplugged them. They just seem to think that everything just magically works in their life because of luck or some human logic. That is just not so or true.

You want to know what if feels like to really feel the absence of God in an individual, I can humbly tell you because I have felt it personally. My description and words probably don’t even come close to the full range and intensity of emotions I had experienced when I felt the absence of God but I will try to describe it to you. It has been several years now and it is not an error I will make again.

I made the unfortunate mistake of not speaking the truth in the presence of the God after being confronted by God. Immediately after speaking this lie an enormous loss or void and sensation of death closed in around me as the Holy Spirit yanked itself from me. A roaring vision of a skull of death then appeared as I tried to breath and register all what was going on. I could feel myself slipping and drowning in this horrible place that was totally void of the characteristics of God and life as we experience it right now. I immediately and frantically stumbled to the altar for prayer not fully knowing what I had done and the danger I had put myself in. To put it simply, I feared of my life.

No one knew what exactly had happened to me but I knew I had to do something quick and with a fear surging through my veins, I asked for our pastor to pray over me and he did. You see I thought all the works I was doing for the church somehow made me right with God but really I was lost. I had no real relationship with God, I just had my deeds which looked good on the surface but really didn't give God what he wanted which was my heart and focus. Good deeds are dead without God moving and directing them. My life of good deeds where chaff not wheat and my life was may of looked good on the outside but I was just a white washed tomb in God's eyes.

It was a hard lesson but I am glad God did that to me now instead of when I go meet him and he says "I never knew you." I have experienced something not many but a few have experienced. I thank God for his mercy and that I am still here. I believe one of the reasons I am still here is to share this and other testimonies with those who will listen.

Humbly I tell you and warn you, don’t mess or fool around with God. Being hard headed is no excuse and I can only imagine that hell is much worse then feeling the absence of God and his Holy Spirit. It will be a death like no other.

God’s source of power that surrounds us everyday is beyond our understanding. God, Jesus
Christ, and the Holy Spirit are real and you can take my word second to God’s word, which should always be first.
