Revival and the Blessings of God
Growing up in church and being involved with the ministry and work of God for almost all of my 22 years of life, I have been priveledged to see and feel many things. I've been in the best of services, the conviction services, the conferences where I spoke in tongues more than I slept, the all night prayer meetings, I've seen it and felt it all. And yet one of the great things of living for a God that is greater than our imagination could ever fathom, is there is always room for a new level or touch of God.
Tonight was one of those nights.
I admit that I don't post much anymore and I use my blog more for reading others, rather than posting myself. But tonight, I must post what took place to record for what is going to happen in days to come.
The visiting preacher was preaching at Bishop Garrett's church about being available to be used by God to be a blessing financially to His Kingdom. In many ways, he was preaching what is the mindset and lifestyle that I live. Everything about me revolves around the work of God and my family. I don't need much for myself. Just the basics. But if my family (I.e my mom, sister, brother, wife and kids) can have the best, the rest of what I have is freely given to the church and the work of God. Even if God should choose to give my family what is sufficient rather than glamorous, I am sold out from career to finances to possessions to spirt, mind, heart, soul, strength, etc to the work of God.
He has given me some promises that without a doubt, despite the uphill climb through stormy weather, I know it will come to pass. He has done too much, he has spoken too clearly, he is too faithful to not perform what he has promised.
Tonight, as the preacher spoke and invited us to the front to commit ourselves to God as vessels he could use, I prayed from the depths of my soul what I have prayed many days and nights.
God use this vessel for whatever you want to do.
As the Bishop asked my pastor to come and say a few words, the Holy Ghost hit me like 1000 tons of bricks at one time. I begin to weap uncontrollably and speak in tongues.
If you ask me to explain what happened in that moment behind the scenes, I couldn't tell you what happened but I know something happened.
Something changed. Inside. Outside. Doors opened up. New levels were reached. The windows of heavens blessing storehouse were flung open. And now in the days to come, beginning with tomorrow (today) those blessings are going to become more evident and revealed.
Revival is taking place at Landmark Apostolic Church. Two kids got the Holy Ghost for the first time last night and many more to come.
If you ain't apart of the revival God is bring to the true church, what's keeping you?
Fall in love with Jesus and His work. It's the best thing you can and ever will do.
...upon this rock, I will build my church. And the gates of hell SHALL NOT PREVAIL AGAINST IT. - Matthew 16:18
