In A Nutshell
I realize that almost every week, there are people signing up to receive these weekly blog posts and/or the monthly ministry newsletter updates. Some of these "newbies" are joining because of having connected with us at the Holy Spirit Rallies and/or Ignite & Unite Conferences. But, there are many that have subscribed that we have never met face-to-face. Some have discovered us by "accident" while googling for those who teach about the Holy Spirit or perhaps have received from a friend a forwarded blog post or newsletter. Because there are so many that we haven't met, this post will...
From My Files – P.C. Nelson
It's been quite a while since I have shared materials from my files. These are nuggets (stories and quotations) discovered while reading and then entered into Excel spreadsheets. In this post, I am excited to share a few of the many quotations gleaned from one of my all-time favorite spiritual heroes, Dr. P.C. Nelson. THE BACKGROUND: I know that the name P.C. Nelson might be unfamiliar to many of this blog's readers. Peter Christopher Nelson (1868-1942) was a prominent Baptist evangelist and writer. Born in Denmark and a master linguist, he was reported to have a reading knowledge of 25...
The Real Factor
It's amazing what God can say in the wee hours of the morning. It happened again yesterday. (I've often wondered if 9 AM would be just as workable.) At 4 AM, I sensed in my spirit that I was to share a directive that might be considered radical to some people. In a time when there is an abundance of teaching/preaching/devotional resources available through books (yes, hardback and paperback books are still being written and published), internet sites, and curriculums for whatever subject that your brain can imagine, for an undetermined period of time let me ask that you push all of these...
Praying in the Spirit Illustrations – Part 21
Have you ever heard the words, "If I would have only known, I would have..."? This is one of the comments that I have heard over and over again about the importance of praying in other tongues. Often, people don't know because they simply haven't been taught. Together, you and I can change this. I am excited to share another easy-to-do, easy-to-understand illustration that shows the importance of praying in other tongues. Just as I have done in the previous illustration posts, I will give a brief, skeletal overview of the illustration. Then, with the Holy Spirit’s help, you can personalize...
The 60/60/24/365 Holy Spirit – Part 6
Here is a startling revelation - we all have limitations; after all, we are just humans. We can only do so much, be in one place at one time, know and comprehend so much (or so little) … the list of our limitations could go on and on. (I know that I've written the following sentence over and over again in this series.) Thank God for the 60/60/24/365 Holy Spirit. When we tap into the power of praying in the Spirit and allow Him to push our prayers beyond the realm of what we know or don’t know, the limited immediately becomes unlimited. I am thankful that we can pray with our understanding...
