About this ebook

Responding to the Supernatural Suddenlies of God is an invitation into a lifestyle of progressive encounters with God. Using the inspiration of Biblical figures and current day supernatural experiences, Paul amplifies the invitation of God's visitations to, "Come. Follow Me."

Introduction to Supernatural Suddenlies
I have been part of the fellowship at Kingdom Life Centre (Park Ridge Baptist Church) since 1978 and pastoring here since 1997, but the discoveries of this book start in 2001 as we began to experience God in ways we were not familiar with. Over the years we have continued to experience many things with God for which we had no frame of reference. Each encounter has expanded our understanding and experience of God as we learnt that He was inviting us into what He was showing us.

Over the last several years I’ve watched and read about people who like us, have experienced supernatural encounters with God. Our tendency to describe such encounters as ‘sovereign’ is usually an attempt to say that they were not initiated by man. This is often a good and accurate description but can carry with it an assumption that what God has done could not be initiated by man. This book is an attempt to help us see God’s ‘sovereign’ moves as an invitation into a lifestyle that we were previously unaware was available. God’s ‘taste sample’ if you will, of something He hopes you will add to your regular menu as you feast with Him.

The journey you are about to take will have you traveling back and forth through time as I draw parallels between the life of Obed-Edom around 1000BC and parts of the Kingdom Life Centre journey since 2001. It is my prayer that by the end you will have remembered many of your own encounters with God and felt His invitation to come follow Him into the fullness of that experience at a lifestyle level.

    This is a very real testimony about pressing in to find more of God. I just wish I had known about this church when we lived close enough to have visited.

Dedication

I dedicate this book to the Church in Logan City in the year 2115. My prayer is that we will have heard what the Spirit is saying to the church in our time, and faithfully responded in a way that makes your leg of the journey all the more glorious. May the praise and glory of the Lord Jesus Christ increase like a flood in this city in your day. We believe in you.

Endorsements

by Paul Jack son will ignite a passion to pursue God in life-changing ways; but, more importantly, will give strategies of how to take these experiences into a supernatural lifestyle. Thanks, Paul, for sharing your story – and that of Obed-Edom. You were both ruined for ordinary living by a suddenly of God, and so will those who receive the truths that you so powerfully share.

The life of a Spirit-born, Spirit-led believer is characterised by suddenlies. I know of no one more equipped by God to write on this subject than Paul Jackson. He is one of those rare individuals who moves by the inner prompting of the Holy Spirit regardless of the outward circumstances.

I have known Paul for many years and I have seen that he lives and breathes Jesus. He needs no endorsement from me because God himself endorses his life. He is a man who continually seeks God and persistently shares with others his vibrant relationship with his Creator. This book tells his experiences-encounters with the living God that make him the man he is. Anyone who reads or listens to these words will be swept up into God's 'suddenlies.' I see Paul as part of a rare breed of pastors in Aus tralia-a burning and shining light that will also set your heart ablaze.

In 1 Samuel 14:6, we hear how Jonathan says to his young armor bearer, Come, let’s go over to the outpost of those uncircumcised fel lows. Perhaps the Lord will act in our behalf. Nothing can hinder the Lord from saving, whether by many or by few. The approach to the enemy camp was hazardous to the extreme, and Jonathan’s tactics were brave and brazen. But with an amazing faith in his God, Jonathan aban doned natural reasoning and embraced a supernatural vision that drove him to action—those Philistines didn’t have a chance.

For me, Paul Jackson is a modern-day Jonathan. He is fearless in the application of his faith, driven by a supernatural vision of a God to whom ‘nothing can hinder’. Like Jonathan, he takes risks for the King dom based on the premiss that if God is for
