Power of Baptism - Journaling by Linda Garmon

Me - LORD, I am overwhelmed by what you are showing me. I started out my walk with you in a Baptist congregation. I was taught about baptism and was baptized, but I did not realize the grace/power it delivered. What You kept highlighting to me as I meditated on your Word was: “in the name of the Father, in the name of Jesus, in the name of the Holy Spirit.” Lord, this feels like treasure ….. speak to me, please.

Jesus - (Laughing) It brings me such pleasure when you find something I have hidden for you. Baptism imparts grace for the continuing transformation. My name represents all that I Am. I revealed My character bit by bit in the OT through My Names. Jesus demonstrated and revealed My Name and My heart through his life, death, and resurrection. Holy Spirit comes to you and implements inside of you all that I Am. So beloved immerse yourself in the river of revelation as you consider all I have revealed to you about baptism in my name. Soak in this river until all that you see in me (Father, Jesus, Holy Spirit) is reflected in you. I rejoice as I see you go from glory to glory.
