#183) Kat Kerr - More Baptism in Fire - The Mercy Seat
And I began to hunger after baptism in fire. A friend of mine got it. I went: What happened to you? Ive got to have that. And he said: The Word says this about baptism in fire. You have to desire and hunger after it. So for two years I hungered after that, and one night my pastor said: Whoevers going to be in the ministry, you need to get down here. Im just going to lay hands on you. He didnt say he was going to release baptism in fire. But God will use willing vessels. And I didnt go up first and I said: Well, Im not in the ministry yet, and the Holy Spirit said: Get down there! I went down there and I was so hungry, I wanted that baptism in fire inside of me, and I stood there, and I was the last person he laid hands on. When he laid hands on me, it went so forcefully in me, it threw me into the usher, into the congregation. It came in like a blowtorch. It burned in through my spirit, all the way up through my body, through my brain. It wiped everything off of the walls in my heart that ever might have belonged to the enemy. Anything that I had seen that I shouldnt have seen was wiped off, he could never replay that again. Thats what happens in baptism in fire. It wipes clean the walls of your heart and your memory banks. You cant even bring up or think of those things that happened to you. Things that happened to you. Things that you saw, even by mistake, and today its real easy to do that. It puts such a fire inside of you for God. So much boldness youre like youre a lion. You want to stand on the street corner and just roar and tell everybody about God. My body began to shake with the fire of God on it, and I didnt normally do that
My body shook with the fire of God on it. I was not in my body. Thats the only time I ever remember traveling. The Spirit of God caught me up. This time angels were with me in the spirit of God, and I literally saw, you know on Star Trek, or Star Wars, where it looks like youre going warp speed, and all the lights are coming at you like that? Thats the only time that happened. It was really cool! I didnt know anything that was going on with my body. My daughter at midnight stuck a note up my sleeve that said when my Mom comes to, call my Dad, and hell come get her. Because theyre not going to wait any longer on me. My husbands Well, is that what happened honey?
he had to carry me home. I couldnt walk
We traveled for some time, then all of a sudden, my feet hit the ground, and I had never been in Israel in my life, but I knew where I was. I was overwhelmed. When He takes me somewhere, nobody sees me. The Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, the angels, they see me in Heaven. No redeemed see me. Dont ask me to find your loved ones and say hello
When my feet landed and I could see, I was outside the tomb, and the stone had already been rolled away. And I hid behind a tree Isnt that funny? Its just your natural mind, Im thinking, What is He going to do?
and this was 1998, so Id already been gone to Heaven for two years.
