It’s Coming in 2022
In rereading the Holy Spirit's Owner's Manual (the book of Acts), I have some insights about what to expect in 2022. Ready? Are you sitting down or standing up? WARNING: This will definitely cause some excitement! Okay, not true. Here's the truth. It will cause a whole lot of excitement. For those whose denomination doesn't allow excitement in the services, go ahead and react. I promise to not tell the leaders of your Chosen Frozen Church of the Redeemed. Based upon what the Manual shows, within the next twelve months you, walking hand-in-hand with the Holy Spirit, can expect to see Him:...
The Transforming Power of the Holy Spirit
When Vickie and I left our ministry of serving as children's pastors to enter into traveling to preach/teach solely on the Person and work of the Holy Spirit in 2014, I questioned the Holy Spirit. I told Him that surely this type of ministry wasn't needed in today's church. I soon learned that I was sorely wrong. I have found that today more than ever before, it seems that few believers know the enormous importance of having a personal relationship with the Holy Spirit. I will be so bold as to state that this baptism is not a luxury but instead a necessity for the Christ-followers wanting to...
Planning for an Outpouring of the Holy Spirit
Many of you know that my dad passed away a couple of months ago. Since then, life has been a blur. And, I'm not talking about a little blur. I'm talking about a Texas-size, humongous blur! Planning for Dad's funeral, moving all of his belongings to our garage, conducting an estate sale, beginning the process to put our home on the market so that we can move to Florida (decluttering, initial packing, staging), working with multiple showings (having the house immaculate, leaving and being gone for the showings), negotiation with the potential buyer (going on today), traveling to Florida to...
An “Ouch” Moment or Two
Please tell me that I am "normal" and that I am not the only one who has these experiences. Let me explain. Last week, I was reading through a list of quotations that I've compiled over the year. And, while reading the numerous Excel spreadsheet entries, one phrase from one particular quotation jumped off of the page. It was just as if I had never read this quotation or at least this particular phrase before. (Again, I ask. Am I normal?) Here's the quotation. "If you want to know how the Spirit acts now, just read how He did actwhen He had full possession of the Church. The Book of Acts is a...
Florida, Here We Come!
99% of my blog posts have to do with the Person and work of the Holy Spirit. You do know that, don't you? Well, this post is one of those exceptions. It's an update on some major changes in our lives. Recently, I wrote a post about my Dad passing at the end of July. I know that he was so ready to be with Jesus and rejoin Mom. We miss him dearly. With that in mind, here is the latest news ... WE ARE MOVING BACK TO FLORIDA! After living in South Florida for 25 years, we moved to North Richland Hills (Fort Worth suburb), Texas in 2014 to help Mom and Dad. But, with them both now being in...
