Something is going on…
February 9th, 2009 Posted in UncategorizedSome weeks ago, we began a new series of teaching on Prayer and the local church. Dr. P.Douglas Small is an outstanding COG teacher. Some of the best I have ever heard on the subject of prayer. well…
It seems that our people are practicing the teaching. There is a new movement in our services. The Holy Spirit seems to be active in unusual ways. The love, the praise and worship, the prayer times, all seem to be different. The difference is difficult to describe, but there it is real.
We had a Holy Spirit service sunday morning, yesterday. Wow.
The openness, the liberty, the sound of joy, victory, praise, all combined in a unique experience in the presence of God.
The kids didn’t even leave for Kids Church, they stayed a were a part of a Pentecostal Worship service.
One special note: We have consciously changed our focus…
previously our central focus was on preaching, the Word…. now our aim is to make Prayer a central focus of all we do. Worship, preaching, serving, giving, …everything comes behind the priority of prayer. Prayer makes all we do more effective. It is first.
I know that when we pray, God acts. He moves, He speaks, He shows up. God is in the house!
blessings,
Verla and I love you all very much.
