Baptize Jesus Oh My Soul

MY EMOTIONS

Papa, for me… the 'surrender' is going to place my heart under this heavenly microscope and watch. Watching is so precious within this Kingdom. To watch as Love travels throughout my soul as I sense my own difficulty like John the Baptist had when Jesus asked him to baptize Him in water. 

WHAT? He says to Jesus…

 “Why are You doing this? 

I’m the one who needs to be baptized by You, 

and yet You come to be baptized by me?” (TPT) 

For I too call out sins (often those of others) as a sinner myself needing salvation, seeing unrighteousness while being unrighteous in all its flesh acts. It just feels all mixed up to surrender to this obedience; and yet, it is the beauty of seeing Jesus called out by the Father as His greatest delight, again and again. 

For my eyes behold the beauty of seeing Your Face (miracles) in my own surrender of walking boldly in Your Kingdom. The Holy Spirit within me declares Jesus as the Son of God right before my eyes, before my heart, before my life walk.

It’s even hard to talk about… seeing sin in others. The walk throws me into such panic, anger, disappointments, anxiety. I dislike the results most of the time. I just don’t have the patients that I find in Jesus, for myself. 

Finding Jesus wanting me 

to come 

baptize Him (surrender 

to take on His life for mine), 

I’m not worthy, I scream out. 

But gently… Jesus will say, ‘the scriptures, read the scriptures and find I Am and I want you in My kingdom.’ By moving in and being instruments of confessing our sins one to another, could this be how we stand before this impossible tasks. By finding a brother or sister in fault and coming to them for the sake of Love traveling through us, then finding Jesus, as the Holy Spirits calls out He is the Son of God.

Oh, Papa… help us in our confessions and in our love walk to call out sin as sin. It’s not about me not being a sinner so I can call out sin… it’s about all of us coming short of Your glory and reaching for that intimacy of seeing the wonders of Heaven open up and Your Words of life descending into the sound of my/our hearts. I'm just a wild person in my wilderness, calling out Your coming and the beauty of what I've found. 

I repent of my shortcomings. I repent of my weakness. I repent of my selfishness. I repent of wanting instant gratifications. I repent of soul ties to worldly riches.  And I baptize You, Jesus, in my heart as I declare You are the Son of God. 

I hear Jesus tell me that even in my difficulties… “It is only right to do all that God requires.” (TPT) The surrender is to not only be baptized but to baptize others (confess your sins one to another... and if I find fault, call it out that I might save us both by seeing Heaven open and the Holy Spirit call out Jesus is the Son of God for the world to see... 

Repent, for the Kingdom of God is at hand. Repent and be baptized!
