Fueling Your Passion
In ministering in our Holy Spirit Rallies, service after service, Vickie and I are seeing such a hunger among God's people for a fresh outpouring of the Holy Spirit. The barriers of tradition and formulas are being pushed to the side and eliminated. There is a cry of "Yes, Lord. Here, Lord. Me, Lord. Now, Lord." Let me share some quotes that will fuel your desperation and longing for a fresh, right-now, personal outpouring of God's Spirit. ~ "The less Holy Spirit operation we have, the more cake and coffee we need to keep the church going."

It Can Do All of That
While reading Acts 18, I discovered a phrase that excited me. In verse 28, Luke wrote "shewing by the scriptures". When I read that phrase, I was ready to do the happy dance. It was a reminder to me that I am on the right track. Let me explain. If you have attended one of our Holy Spirit Rallies, you have seen me quote some ten to fifteen scriptures as I am preaching. These are not scriptures that I have memorized just to impress people as I preach. Nor is quoting these scriptures my attempt to look super spiritual. On the contrary, each and every verse has been memorized for my own personal...
Multiplicity of Multitudeness
Okay, I will fess up. Don't ask me what the blog title means. Like you, I'm clueless. Is it googleable? (Is "googleable" a word?) I just know that years ago I heard a television evangelist use this term and I thought that it sounded kinda cool. Go ahead and admit that it piqued your curiosity. Now that I have piqued your curiosity, I will take back that clueless statement. It might have to deal with innumerable masses of people. Does that sound plausible? Here is where the idea for the multiplicity of multitudeness (my spell check is having fits with this word) came from. In reading Acts, I...
Now!
To the delight of some parents and the remorse of others, the start of the new school year is just days/weeks away. For the next few months, life will definitely be different! Crazy morning schedules to get the children out of bed, fed, dressed, and on their way to school followed by the daily after-school sports practices, repeated reminders to complete the homework, baths, and early bedtimes - I'm tired just thinking about your upcoming daily routines. I know that you have compiled your back-to-school preparation to-do list with:* Purchase school supplies* Find the cool trending backpacks...
The Barrier-Breaking Holy Spirit
Thank God for the Holy Spirit. Here's an observation about the Holy Spirit that I have noticed over and over again while reading the Book of Acts. When He gets involved in a situation, barriers fall to the side and are eliminated. Here are just a few. The Barrier of Insufficient Power - ELIMINATED! Acts 1:8 Our weak, limited, strained abilities disappear when we put on the wardrobe of power. (Luke 24:49) The Barrier of Limited Geographical Effectiveness - ELIMINATED! Acts 1:8 Our finger-in-the-glass-of-water effectiveness is forever erased as He enables us to turn our entire world upside...
