Have You Heard of a Weird, Wacky Holy Spirit?
Have you ever had some preconceived ideas about an individual only to discover when you actually met that person and got to know them that your ideas were completely wrong? We've all had that happen. I once took as gospel Mr. A's opinion of Mr. X and was hesitant to be around Mr. X. But, after just a few minutes of being with Mr. X, I found that my preconceived ideas were so, so wrong. In fact, I found the opposite to be true. It was a pure joy to be with this person. Then, a relationship began that is still going strong! I don't know what religious circles that you've associated with but...
How Much Power Abides In You?
While reading The Complete Smith Wigglesworth on my iPad recently, I came across a quote that could so excite you that it'd cause you to swing over hell on a cornstalk and spit in the devil's face. Here's the quote ... "In me is working a power stronger than any other power; Christ, the power of God, formed within me. I can see why we need to be clothed upon from above, for the life that is in me is a thousand times bigger than I am outside." Our peanut-size brain can't ever begin to comprehend the vast power residing within a Spirit-filled believer. It's evident that our enemy fully...
Looking for the ULTIMATE Ministry?
For our 25 years of being a Children's Pastor at Trinity Church International in Lake Worth, Florida, I did my very best to give special attention to each and every child each week. Often I would go home after the weekend's third and final service and tell Vickie that I didn't have a single hug left in me because I'd hugged literally hundreds of kids before and after the services. I told her that I didn't have many kisses left in me because I'd held and kissed many of the little babies on the top of their heads. While I loved my time of ministry from the platform, to me, the ultimate time of...
To God Be the Glory!
This week, Vickie and I are celebrating 36 years of ministry together. It all began with our first Kid's Crusade in Forest Hill, Louisiana with Mark and Trina Hankins the first week of June in 1979. Years later and many thousands of miles behind us, we look forward to many more years of together advancing the Kingdom.
Reality Check – Signs are WAITING on BELIEVING Kids!
I don't know what it is about the early morning hours that causes me to hear things from the Holy Spirit. For example, just a couple of mornings ago at a little past 4 AM, I heard in my spirit the question, "Are we raising up Mark 16 kids?". Needless to say, for the next bit of time, I pondered that question. Here's the portion of the scripture that the Holy Spirit was referencing. "And these signs will accompany those who believe: in my name they will cast out demons; they will speak in new tongues; they will pick up serpents with their hands; and if they drink any deadly poison, it will...
