Have you ever had a powerful encounter with God only to feel it slip away after a few days, weeks, or months? It’s like you were on fire for God, but then the cares of life crept in, and the excitement dimmed. I’ve seen this happen to so many people.
I remember ministering in Louisville, Kentucky, years ago. A woman came up to me after a service with tears in her eyes. She told me how much the teaching had transformed her life and how, for the first time, she really understood the love of God. But then she said, “I know this won’t last. It may only be a week or a month, but I’m just enjoying the love of God more than I ever have.”
That really grieved my heart because it doesn’t have to be that way. Yet for so many Christians, that’s their experience. They think God’s touch is something temporary, something they can’t sustain. It’s like they believe they’re a bucket with holes in it, and they’re constantly leaking out everything God pours into them.
Brothers and sisters, if that’s been your experience, I want you to know something: you don’t have to live like that. You don’t have to lose what God gives you and constantly need a fresh touch from Him. You can stay full of God, not just for a week or a month, but every day of your life!
FROM GLORY TO GLORY, NOT PIT TO PIT
When God touched my life on March 23, 1968, it turned my world upside down. I felt so full of His presence that I didn’t think it could get any better. And I can tell you, more than fifty years later, that this love and revelation are stronger in my life now than they were back then. I haven’t lost it. In fact, it’s grown.
This is how the Christian life is meant to be. Second Corinthians 3:18 says we're supposed to go from glory to glory—not from pit to pit. But sad to say, most Christians live on a roller coaster. They experience highs and lows that make their walk with God feel inconsistent. That’s not what God intended.
Isaiah 40:4 says that the valleys would be exalted and the mountains and hills made low. If you bring the valleys up and the mountains down, it should be smooth sailing. I’m not saying that we’ll never have problems. I’ve had terrible things happen to me. But they’ve never diminished the revelation of God’s love for me. Instead, that truth has become even more real and powerful in my life.
THE GOSPEL: NEARLY TOO GOOD TO BE TRUE
It all starts with understanding the Gospel. When I say “Gospel,” I’m talking about the nearly-too-good-to-be-true news that Jesus took your sin, gave you His righteousness, and made you right with God. It’s the news that God isn’t angry with you anymore.
For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek. For therein is the righteousness of God revealed from faith to faith: as it is written, The just shall live by faith.
Romans 1:16–17
This isn’t something you experience once and then move on. Romans 1:16 calls the Gospel “the power of God unto salvation.” That power is available to you every day—not just in the big moments, but in the quiet, everyday parts of life. When you understand and meditate on the goodness of God, it changes the way you think, live, and relate to Him.
Religion often focuses on sin, judgment, and trying to scare people into repentance. But Romans 2:4 says it’s the goodness of God that leads people to repentance. When you truly understand how much God loves you, it changes everything. You stop living like a roller-coaster Christian, and you start walking in a consistent, growing relationship with Him.
THE CHOICE WE FACE
In 1 Timothy 4:1–2, Paul warned that in the last days, many would depart from the faith, following deceptive spirits. The truth is, every decision we make is shaped by spiritual forces, and we’re either being drawn closer to God or deceived by the devil. If you’re not being led by God’s truth, you’re being led by something else—there’s no middle ground. I know some people don’t like hearing that, but it’s what the Word says, and it’s the truth. The power lies in your choice— whether to surrender to God’s guidance or give in to the enemy’s subtle influence.
GOD’S INNER GPS
Your conscience is a gift from God—a constant, internal compass guiding you toward truth. Romans 2:14-15 and 1 Timothy 4:2 show that every person has this inner knowledge of God, whether they acknowledge it or not. And it’s only when they continually reject it that they move further away from God. Over time, this can lead to a hardened heart. That’s a dangerous place to be, where you can no longer feel the conviction of the Holy Spirit. But no one starts out that way. That’s why it’s so important to stay sensitive to the Lord’s voice.
