1 Kings 18:39 (NKJV) 39 Now when all the people saw it, they fell on their faces; and they said, \u201cThe Lord, He is God! The Lord, He is God!\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Sometimes when God\u2019s Spirit moves on us, we may get an overwhelming feeling that we just need to drop to the floor and lay flat on our face before Him.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

That may sound weird to some people. But once we have seen and felt the presence of God, and the promptings of His Spirit, there is nothing at all that\u2019s weird about it.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

God is holy. He is sovereign. He is pure. And He is righteous.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Nobody can stand in His presence; not even His angels.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

The word of God is full of examples of people falling on their faces when they came into His presence.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

So, I write today to ask you this question; when was the last time we got on our faces before God?<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

When is the last time we actually surrendered to His Spirit and fell prostrate before Him?<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Maybe you\u2019re asking, \u201cwhy should I feel the need to lay face down before God? What\u2019s so important about this that requires me to do it?\u201d.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Well, first off, it isn\u2019t necessarily a requirement in a \u201cregulatory\u201d sense of the word.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

But we need to understand that laying prostrate before God is a sign of surrender. It shows our willingness to acknowledge His sovereignty and His holiness, and bow before Him with no regard for ourselves, how we might look or how inconvenient it might be to fall before Him.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

It is a humbling thing to encounter Him and fall face-first before Him. There is something unexplainable about it that words can\u2019t sufficiently describe.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

But suffice it to say that doing so is the beginning of bringing our relationship with Him to a new level of reverence and adoration. It changes us, from the inside, out.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

So, we encourage you to pay attention to His promptings. Don\u2019t be afraid to surrender and get on your face on the floor, or even on the ground if that\u2019s where His presence falls upon you.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

We promise you that it will be something you will never look at with the same eyes again.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
