Offering Message: Luke 6:38, 39 Give, and it shall be given to you. The seed that you sow today is for the future. Faith takes your needs to God. Give faithfully to God. Trust God with your needs. God gives more than you need so that you have seed for your future and so you can meet the needs of others. You determine the level of God’s provision. Pat Murphy shares his testimony of God’s goodness in a time of no income and their faithfulness to give. Be faithful to do everything God tells you to do, so that God can do everything He promised to do. How generous do you want God to be with you? Bob Hawk delivers a word to Jon Fike and Sandy Burkholder. He also shared about the shift Wednesday and Thursday (March 30 and 31, 2011) in the blowings of God’s wind and that which God’s Spirit is causing to manifest on the people of CWI. He also told about the Spirit telling him about Deut. 1:11, that the Lord will make us a 1000 times more numerous than we are. There were words and minstry to a few people in the congregation, as well as Dale and Teri and Bob. Eph. 1:17-19 God is the Father of Glory. There is the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of Him. You can know your calling and destiny and should pray to know who God is. You should know what belongs to you. God is for you. You must understand the greatness of His power and the person of the Holy Spirit. What happened to Ananias and Sapphira in Acts 5 was because they thought the Holy Spriit was a power, not a person. Also, there are times of judgment, and that was one of those times. We are in precarious times now, too. Fear is like pain, in that it tells you something about your body. The fear of the Lord is real fear. Fear has a powerful tendency to teach. It can condition you in the way you respond. Pastor Dale told of his pastor who blasphemed the Holy Spirit in a church service and dropped dead. The person of the Holy Spirit gives assignments. He shows you how to accomplish those assignments; you must cooperate with Him. Worship Him and receive Him on His terms. Agree with Him. * You must receive the Holy Spirit. * You must respect the Holy Spirit; He reveals the Word. Pastor Dale tells of his experience as a young man in obeying the Holy Spirit, even when he would have lots of reasons to postpone doing what the Spirit told him to do. * Learn the ways of the Holy Spirit and learn His voice by spending time with Him. Tell Him you are available to be used by Him. * Obey Him. Three steps to knowing Him better are: 1) Obey what He tells you. 2) Come to a place of usefulness. 3) Then you will receive a promotion from the Lord. Make sure you are doing what God is doing. Cooperate with Him.
The Person of the Holy Spirit
Increase in the Kingdom of God
We are on assignments from heaven to people waiting for us to show up, to be touched by God, and to get a word from God. Deut. 1:11 says, “May the Lord God make you 1000 times more numerous than you are and bless you as He has promised you.” The kingdom of God is righteousness, peace, and joy of the Holy Spirit. Be sensitive to the Holy Spirit so that you don’t miss any opportunities. God wants to bring increase into His kingdom and into us individually. There was a shift in us, a shift that will take us beyond ourselves into a place of faith for others so they can be made whole. Each assignment is a “must do”. Ps. 115:9-18 God blesses those who fear the Lord. He will increase us and our children. Ps. 2:8 Ask of God, and He will give us the nations for His inheritance, and the ends of the earth for His possession. Possess by your faith. Matt. 19:26 tells us that with God all things are possible. Mark 9:23 tells us that if you can believe, all things are possible. Mark 9:17-29 God wants us to get rid of the unbelief in our hearts. How do you get to belief? Fasting and prayer. Intercession and prayer change the atmosphere. It’s a lifestyle. For the 1000 times more to happen, it will take intercession and prayer. Mark 10:27; Mark 14:36; Jer. 23:17; Luke 1:26-28 all affirm that nothing is impossible with God. We are highly favored of the Lord, blessed, part of the anointing that Pastor Dale has. God is always with us (Matt. 28:18-20); Heb. 13:5, 6. Ps. 138:7, 8; and Matt. 9:36-38 reveal of God’s love and care for us. Pray for God to send forth the laborers into the harvest. John 4:31-38 is the general assignment- to God’s will and finish His work. Go to the harvest, which He has already prepared for you. To do the assignments, people will have to depend on the Holy Spirit and God’s love and mercy. Pray and obey. The steps of obedience will bring His grace and power to bring in the harvest. We are carriers of revival. There was a time of ministry for people who want to make prayer a priority. There were several words to people during and at the end of the sermon.
What Will You Do With What God Is Doing
Offering Message and Introdcution by Pastor Dale: We are in revival! The revival has shifted. It has moved from one state to another. It has gone from one point of acceleration to a higher one. Pastor Syd Ropp and CWI Colorado are desiring, declaring, and decreeing revival! Celebration and laughter filled our hearts. Luke 5:1-6 It came to pass as the multitude pressed about Him to hear the Word of God. They pressed in to hear the Word. Jesus interrupted Simon’s work of washing his nets and put it on hold. Elijah seemed to be without compassion when He told her to make him a cake with the only food she had left. She had told him that it was only enough for her and her son, and then she was going to die. Why didn’t he try to fix her problem? He wanted her to put God first. Seek first the kingdom of God and then all of these things will be added to you. Put God first, and you’ll see increase. Pastor Dale tells of the miracle of getting a beautiful bank building for $120,000. God is drawing our hearts to connect with Him. What are you saying? What are you desiring? The only thing we should be carrying is the anointing. In Luke 5:12, 13 Jesus told the leper He was willing to set him free. He touched him and immediately the leprosy left him. Get closer to God. Connect your heart with His. You must learn to worship Him! There are times and seasons, and in the day of His power, we must be willing. What will you do with the sudden impacts in your life? #1 Deal with pride in your life. James 4:5-7 tells us that God resists the proud, but gives grace to the humble. Who are the proud? They are those who do not depend on God all the way. Your pride will stop you from receiving from the Holy Spirit what He wants for your life. If you are carrying care, you are in pride. You can have grace in the midst of worry, mess, and when the enemy seems to be winning. #2 Submit to God, the truth, and the Word. #3 Then you can resist the devil, and he will flee from you. #4 Draw near to God. Cleanse your hands. Purify your hearts. Pray and praise Him. Heb. 10:19 tells us that it’s because of Jesus Christ’s blood that we can have boldness to enter the Holiest. There is an open-heaven for those who diligently seek Him. Bury the past. You can’t take it into the future. Know this: Whenever God shows up, so does the devil. There is wisdom and revelation to know who is the enemy and what to do with him. Eventually we lose ourselves as we draw near to God and resist the devil. Revival is not a meeting. Live your lifetime in revival. Draw near to God, and reisit the devil; repeat process. Revival is abundance. Do you have an evil conscience? Deal with it. God wants to sprinkle and flood us with His presence, until all the smell of the world is removed. Use the keys of heaven to lock and loose. God is faithful! After ministry: There are ruts in our thinking that are out of God’s will and Word. God will put a check in our hearts, so that we do not entertain those thoughts. He will open up our understanding of scripture.
Asking For and Expecting More
Offering message: (Pastor Dale) I Kings 17:2 ff. The Word of the Lord is Jesus, not the Holy Spirit speaking. This is the time and this is the place. You must be in the place of God’s blessing. Pastor Dale told of a time when he and Bob Hawk prayed every Wednesday and everything they prayed was answered, because it was time. Bob Hawk delivered a word from the Lord about quickening, understanding, and His calling us. The order is to MOVE! Bob first shared that the river is here- now and in this place. Ezekiel 47:3-9. Sue Baughman told of the visions the Lord revealed to her about the river and fountain. Revival brings us to awareness of what God is doing, and He pours out resurrection power. Zech. 10:1-13 Ask the Lord for rain in the time of the latter rain. Luke 11:1 ff- Jesus’ disciples asked Him to teach them to pray as John taught his disciples. We are to bring heaven to earth. Be shamelessly persistent. Keep asking. Keep seeking. Keep knocking for the things of God. Don’t give up! God wants a continual pouring out from our lives. Acts 3:1-11 The lame man was expecting money, but he received something greater, because of the authority in the name of Jesus Christ. We have that same authority. In Acts 4:23-31 the believers prayed for more boldness. The disciples had been filled with the Holy Spirit and had spoken in tongues at Pentecost, but they received another filling to speak the Word with boldness. Other scriptures: Mark 11:24; Matt. 21:22; John 13:14, 15; John 16:23; Jer. 29:11. Bob ministered to those desiring more boldness to speak the Word of God and to minister to others. He had a specific word for Lee Jones. Jim gave a word about God taking us at warp-speed to reach the end-time harvest. Vera Zimmerman told about seeing a river that even flowed uphill.
Being Confident in This
Offering message: I Kings 17:8-13 God commanded the widow to provide for Elijah, but God did not tell her. She had nothing, but Elijah told her to make him some food. God didn’t fill the jar from the top but from the bottom. When you need a miracle in your finances, you can’t be soft, but bold. You can’t walk in fear and blessing at the same time. You can’t deal with cancer with fear. Fear not! Facing lack? FEAR NOT! Put God first- regardless. Abundance is laid up in heaven. Phil. 1:6 Being confident in this that He who has begun a good work in you will complete it (perform it) until the day of Jesus Christ. Pastor Dale relates about a person his wife knew who was living a life of sin and how God touched and saved him in the middle of that lifestyle. Your prayers will take care of the one you are praying for. Our strength and confidence are in Him, not in ourselves. What can we be confident in and about? 1) We can be confident that God has begun something good in you. Christ’s work is finished, but the work in us isn’t finished until we’re resurrected. What is God doing in you? Regardless of what is happening, God has started something in you. It’s like walking out to the end of the high dive with no chance of getting down the ladder again. He is concerned about your heart. Pastor Dale told of how his father-in-law was convicted in a bar and had to be saved and again how God healed his leg of gangrene. When you minister to others, remember that God has started a good work in the other person and understand that it’s a process. In other words, encourage them. 2) Be confident that He is the one doing the work. Cooperate with God. What is He doing in your heart? What is He teaching you? Pastor Dale told how the Lord dealt with him and vice versa concerning his books and albums. God is still dealing with you today. 3) Be confident that He is still working and continuing to work in you. Rom. 12:1, 2. Christ died and it was over, but the crucificion of the believer is that of a living sacrifice. Your confidence is not in yourself, but in God. Bob Hawk and Maria Krothe shared how God took each one of them through a process of being a living sacrifice.
Suddenlies, Desire, Calling, Delight
Acts 2:1-4, 14-18 tells the account of Pentecost. It was a suddenly. Jesus’ followers were in one accord in one place and the Holy Spirit’s presence filled the building. The years 2011 will be and has already been a year of suddenlies- both good and bad. It’s an important choice of how we handle these suddenlies. We must be filled continuously with the Holy Spirit and receive all God has for us. We are in the last days, and according to Joel, He will pour out of His Spirit on all flesh. Expect to receive and deliver prophetic utterance from the Holy Spirit. Expect God to give you visions and dreams. There was a time of ministry to those whose hearts are broken. Bob also ministered a prophetic song about God’s desire, His calling you by name, His delight; about being counted, called, chosen; being in the place in Him; about change and revealing His delight and desire. He said that He requires what He has invested in you. We are carriers of His Spirit, and we should reveal His desire. He has opened doors and given us His favor, presence, desire. He wants us to come under His covering and into His fold. He desires for us to be His mouthpiece, hands, and feet to go out and bring the lost to Him. That is His desire. The congregation responded with “I will come for You. I will go for You.” A prophetic word was ministered to Bob at the end of the service.
Good God Almighty
Bob Hawk ministers a word to the congregation about what God is doing here and in His people. Bob reminds us to receive- receive an impartation from Him. In order to receive from God, we must believe that He is good to us. In Ps. 145:8, 9 we learn that the Lord is gracious, full of compassion, slow to anger, and great in mercy. He is good to all, and His tender mercies are over all His works. James 1:2-7; we can ask for wisdom and He gives it to us. He wants to deposit goodness in us so we can distribute it to others. Eph. 2:4-7 He wants to reveal to us things that are to come. He wants to reveal His kindness to us in Christ Jesus. We are at a critical time. We must yield and submit to Him. I Tim. 6:17 Trust in the living God, who gives us all things richly to enjoy. Matt. 7:7-9 Ask, seek, knock. We don’t have because we don’t ask. We must be full containers of His love, mercy, Holy Spirit, Word, anointing, healing, miracles. Ps. 84:11 God does not withhold any good thing from those who walk unrightly. If we sin, we repent. He’s already paid the price for our sins and for our healing. Rom. 8:31-32 tells us that God is for us. What can you believe to receive from God? Bob and Pastor Dale ministered to each person who came to receive an impartation from God.
Stir Yourself Up Part 2
This part 2 is a continuation of part 1.
Stir Yourself Up Part 1
Luke 15:11-32 is the Parable of the Prodigal Son. Both sons got their inheritance, but the one was faithful and the other one was wasteful. The father ran to the prodigal son. In a revival two main things happen. One thing is that the prodigals come home. People on the “outside” get saved. Critical spirits want to put requirements on the newly born-again converts. Let the Spirit of God clothe them and let the Holy Spirit be the Holy Spirit. The second thing that happens is that, just like the elder brother, some people get upset that the younger brother is in the kingdom. People who went through a previous move of God become jealous or offended at the new move of God. Watch it! We want the move of the Holy Spirit, so don’t let biases and boundaries restrict the flow. Oral Roberts joined the Methodist Church so that people who were healed through him wouldn’t worship and give attention to him rather than to the Lord. Pastor Dale told of a minister who heard about healing before he went blind, but only his wife knew about it. He preached healing, and although he had sugar diabetes and was blind, he received his sight back. Praise God! Another concern with the elder brother is the spirit of: “Why did You do it for him and not for me?” Understand that your body is the temple of God, and God lives in you if you’re born-again. God never leaves us. He is a very close friend. Everything that God the Father has, is ours. When others are being blessed, and you aren’t seeing it for yourself, the devil will tell you that there must be something wrong with you. Eph. 1:3 tells us that we are blessed with all spiritual blessings in heavenly places in Christ. All blessings begin in the spirit, and we receive them by faith. You already possess what you want. Rejoice with others. Complete the course. It’s your party too when the “prodigals” come home. Pastor Dale shared that some of the harvest in Japan is his because of what he sowed in Titusville for Japan. II Tim. 1:6 tells you that you are to stir up the gift of God which is in you through the laying on of hands. The younger brother prays to be used, and the elder brother complains that he feels used. What God gave us, He doesn’t take back. You can’t go further until the gift that is in you is stirred up. Go back to what God told you and stir it up.
Water in the Wilderness and Rivers in the Desert
Isaiah 43:15-21 Remember not the former things. Behold, God is doing a new thing. Now it will spring forth, and we will know it! God will make a way in the wilderness and rivers in the desert. Many Christians are weary, and there is a dryness in them. God has promised us a promised land, but if we believe lies, if we don’t give ourselves to Him as #1 priority, and if we get tired in the everyday battle against Satan, we will be in a dry place. God gives drink to His people, because He has formed us for Himself and for His praise. He wants to water us. Repentance is necessary for revival. What does it mean to “drink”? It is to irrigate, to furnish a portion to, to moisten, to water, to soak, to absorb; a consciousness that we live by the intangible; condoning fellowship; giving drink to a thirsty one condones compassion; to receive into one’s soul what refreshes and nourishes; participation in relationships; a desire for God that only He can satisfy. We must become gluttons for and soak in His presence. Other scriptures: Ps. 42:1,2; Ps. 63:1-8; Ps. 143:6; Isaiah 44:3, 4. The rivers of living water are His Spirit. God’s fire brings into being a sanctified life. He will rip out the things that don’t belong in us, because we were created for fellowship with Him. Drink into your heart and absorb and partake of a fresh infilling of the Holy Spirit. (There was ministry to anyone wanting ministry to receive an impartation of the fresh living water and rivers of the Holy Spirit. Testimonies: Robert Cox shared a testimony of God’s supernatural power manifested in his life in a time of total breakdown. Bob and Sharon Hawk told of the healing miracle in Sharon’s mother’s body and how they stood on the Word because her mother is a giver to the poor and a tither.
The Holy Spirit Helps us in Our Weaknesses
Offering message: (Pat Murphy) Is. 9:6-7 – of the increase of His government and peace there is no end. You cannot come to the end of His provisions and peace, meaning nothing missing, nothing lacking, and nothing needed. He’s given us His peace, and there is no lack. Faith is what is between the promise and the manifestation. If there’s a need, there is a seed for it. If you have lack, you may have failed to sow seed in the past. Rom. 8:26 tells us that the Holy Spirit helps us in our weaknesses. He helps us go from glory to glory. Jesus said it would be better if He went away so that another (one of the same kind- the Holy Spirit) would come in His place and be in us. The Holy Spirit helps us in our prayer life. Intercession is like rescuing and helping someone who is trapped in a quandry. I Cor. 10:13 – God is faithful and won’t allow you to be tempted beyond what you are able to stand. He will give us the Word to stand on in order to escape. Irfirmities are our inabilities to produce. The Holy Spirit is our Comforter, one who is called alongside to help. Heb. 13:6 – We can boldly say the Lord is our Helper, and we do not have to fear. Ps. 92:10 – we are anointed with fresh oil. Ps. 71:18 – We pass on what God has done in our lives. God is pouring in the oil and wine. Anoint means to smear or rub in oil or perfume on an individual. Is. 52:7 – how beautiful are the feet of those who bring good news. II Cor. 3:17, 18 We are being trasnformed into God’s image from glory to glory, becoming more spiritual. The Word is a mirror reflecting Jesus. If you’re not experiencing glory, ask yourself: Am I obedient to do the things He asks me to do? Have I completed the assignment as He told me to do it? Are my finances in order? Have I done everything I can to make this time of my life fruitful? We are to confess our faults (underlying weaknesses) to one another, but make sure the one you tell is someone you can trust. Change means to transform, transfigure one’s appearance. John 16:13-15 The Spirit of Truth will guide you into all truth. The Holy Spirit speaks what He hears Jesus Christ say. The Holy Spirit gives us shortcuts to our destiny. The Holy Spirit is our internal GPS system. Rom. 8:14 tells us that those who are led by the Spirit of God are the sons of God. Ask God for a fresh anointing. Bob Hawk gave a word at the beginning of the service and also spoke a word to Jim.
Cast Out the Strongman and Fill the House With the Spirit
Offering Message: II Cor. 9:6-8 God loves a cheerful giver. He is able to make all grace abound toward you so that you always have all sufficiency in all things, and may have an abundance for every good work. The sufficiency is so that you can establish God’s covenant. The anointing is in you. Jesus had financial supply. He had a treasurer, Judas, who, when he was missing, the disciples thought he was out giving money to the poor. Testimony: Anita Trythall shares a testimony of her divine meeting with a sister in the Lord. In Luke 9:1-2 Jesus gathered the 12 disciples and gave them power and authority over all demons and to cure diseases. He sent them to preach the kingdom of God and to heal the sick. Before the kingdom of God comes, the devil has to go. In Luke 11:20-26 it says that if demons are cast out by the finger of God, the kingdom has come upon you. When an unclean spirit goes out of a man, he will come back with 7 other spirits more wicked than himself, if the “house” is empty. The problem is that the “house” was empty. It should have been filled with the glory and Spirit of God. When you’ve been set free, you need to be filled anew with the Spirit of God. In Matthew 12:28 this same passage says that the devil is cast out by the Spirit of God. You carry God’s Spirit, and you carry God’s power and authority. In Gal. 4:27-30 Abraham and Sarah had to cast out Ishmael and Hagar. Ishmael represented the flesh. There are some things that need to be cast out- the law, religion, religious backgrounds, and you need power and authority to break them. Charismatics have religious bondage, because without the Spirit, we will go into bondage. We need a new impartation of the Spirit. Before we were first filled with the Spirit, we didn’t speak in tongues. It was something new to us. We don’t need a filling of the same thing. We need something new. Expect something different and new, like in the natural anticipating the taste of a new recipe. We must receive at a new level and not what we received years ago. That was for then, but we need the Spirit for where we are now. We are born of the Spirit. When something comes out, something new of the Spirit must come in. Make room for God. There was a time of laying on of hands and prayer for those who wanted to be filled anew with the Holy Spirit.
The King of Glory The Glory of God
Ps. 24:1-10. We must open our hearts to receive from God. We were created for good works. We are anointed with the Holy Spirit and promise for function. Compare yourself with Jesus. We must give away what we have received. To get a deposit of giftings we must get rid of what does not belong to us and open our hearts to the King of Glory. Are we logged up? Repent. II Cor. 3:15-18 tells us that where the Spirit of the Lord is there is liberty to release anointing, to speak, to hear, to rejoice, to know the grace of God. We are transformed into the image of Jesus from glory to glory. God wants to fill us up with the right stuff. In II Cor. 4:1-7 we learn that we do not lose heart because we are transformed. Are we partakers of the gospel of Jesus Christ? Are we single-minded? What is holding us back? We have the knowledge of the glory of God in us that the excellence of the power may be of God and not of us. Do we have a heart for the lost? Pastor Dale Armstrong and Bob Hawk ministered to a couple who are in ministry.
Testimonies and The Holy Spirit Revival Is Here
Carlin Winkelman shares a testimony of God’s goodness and miraculous peace in a life-threatening time. Praise and worship of our Almighty God erupts as revival fire sweeps through the congregation of worshipers.
Offering and Tithe Teaching
Luke 6:36-38 tells us to be merciful as God is, judge not, condemn not, forgive, give and the measure of our giving is the same measure it will be given to us. When you give, God works in measure and multiplication. There are three parts to “measure”. Pastor Dale expounds on each with a personal experience. 1) Speed of giving and obedience/ speed of receiving. 2) Quality of our giving. Give your best. 3) Frequency of your giving. Give something away everyday. There is not a problem you can not give your way out of.
If You Believe You Will See The Glory of God
Hab. 2:14 (The earth will be filled with the knowledge of the Lord, as the waters cover the sea.) Knowledge means to know by experience; gained through experience or association. II Thess. 2:13 God chose us for salvation through sanctification by the Spirit and belief in the truth. God wants us to know His glory through experiencing it. Revival belongs to you. You must receive it. God wants us full of His power. We must trust in the Lord, walk in faith, and make our decisions by being led by the Spirit of God. It’s time for a higher degree of glory and revelation. Believing comes before seeing the manifestation. We must obtain and seize the glory of our Lord Jesus Christ. Heb. 11:6 – He is a rewarder of those who diligently seek Him. Is. 43:5-7. Rom. 9:23-26 God prepared people beforehand for glory. What is glory? It is honor, reverence. splendor, brightness, manifestations of God’s divine presence, the goodness of God, riches, smoke- a cloud. Eph. 1:16-18 – that you may know the hope of His calling and the riches of the glory of His inheritance in the saints. There are many who have not experienced or heard of God’s glory. Are we going to take the gospel everywhere we go? Col. 1:25-27. Christ in you is the hope of glory, the hope of the manifestation of God’s divine presence. Keep your faith engaged and allow the miracle worker in you to be taken out to the world.
Praising God With Our Testimony
Ps. 34:1,2 We should bless the Lord at all times; His praise should continually be in our mouths; Our souls should make their boast in the Lord. We need to talk about what Jesus has done in our lives. Boast about Jesus. Pastor Dale tells of a time in the Philippines. A man who had carried his wife on his back for three days got saved, and the wife who was almost dead was raised up. Our first ministry is on our knees and in praising God. Pastor Dale also told of a woman named Wanda whom was given a new heart by the Lord. When we praise God for what He has done, He can do it again. Praise and prayer are powerful. II Cor. 3:17 Where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty. We are being transformed from glory to greater glory. Pastor Dale recounts an incident in which he came upon an accident, and the Lord brought the dead teen back to life. The young man later told Pastor Dale what he saw as he was going into eternity. II Cor. 4:1-8. Recount what God has done for you. In I Sam. 30:1-8 David encouraged himself in the Lord in an almost impossible situation. God told him to pursue, overtake, and recover. Make your boast in the Lord.
Ministering to the Lord
Pastor Dale and Jon Fike ministered in the Spirit in praise. Bob Hawk ministered a word in song, a word of encouragement to Robert Cox, and spoke briefly on encouragement from Isaiah 60:1-5 and Ps. 34:1. There is no want to those who fear God. He is calling us to a life of obedience. Stop your double-mindedness, press forth, and the grace of God will come on you.
Revival and God’s Glory
Bob Hawk preaches about the glory of the Lord and what needs to happen for us to enter into His glory and into revival. Is. 60:1-5 tells us that we are to arise and shine, that the glory of the Lord is risen upon us, and His glory is seen upon us. We are God’s representatives, His ambassadors. Be hungry for His presence. God is going to shake loose in us whatever doesn’t belong to Him. We need to deal with the heart issues and get rid of the sins and the “good” things that are not God’s best for us. When we stop holding back, increase can come. Rom. 6:4- we should walk in the newness of life, which is revival. Glory is God’s divine presence and His appearance commanding respect. We must respect God to go into His glory, and when we do, Satan will attack us. We can’t pet our sin, but we must take authority over it and be cleansed by Jesus Christ’s blood. Ps. 85:6 asks if God will revive us again. Revival means to return, to recover from death to life, to be refreshed in joy, and to be brought back again into notice. Ps. 138:1-8 God resists the proud. Even in the middle of trouble, He revives us. The Lord will complete what concerns us and His mercy endures forever. Eph. 5:14-21 tells the “sleepers” to awake, and be filled with the Spirit, and Christ will give us light. It is time for the church to arise and shine. Gal. 5:16. Open your heart so God can pour His Spirit into it, and you can have a life of constant fellowship with Him.
Special Holy Ghost Service
Offering Message Pat Murphy II Cor. 9:6-15. Just as diamonds can be regarded as stones before they are cut and polished, so the Word can be skipped over. We need to look at it as being of great value, which it is. God supplies seed to the sower. It needs to be sowed and not consumed. Sow the seed. Plant it. Be obedient to do what He tells you to do. God will work with you. Make sure your gift is what God wants it to be. If what you have is not what you need, it is probably seed. Pat and Lynn share a testimony of a big return. See how faithful God is. The Holy Spirit led as Pastor Dale ministered to a Russian couple and Kathy and Leo Neff.
