Every encounter with God has been such that man went flat down and went blind. Paul went blind on the Damascus road (see Acts 9). What was the light that blinded him? Was it a cosmic ray coming down from some exploding body or from two colliding galaxies? No! It was the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, the God that dwelt in the bush, the God that dwelt in the Shekinah between the wings of the seraphim. What could it mean but that God was branding them on their foreheads with His fiery holiness to say, “You’re mine now”?
Up until this point, the Holy Spirit had been reserved for a few people: prophets, kings, priest, etc, but now, He's available to ALL who ask!
