WoW! Our church has service 2 x's each week. For about the past month we have not been able to get to the message at our wednesday service. The move of the Holy Spirt has been so very powerful! We stay in priase and worship all evening. Shouting, laughing, crying and dancing inthe Spirit. People are getting healed (myself included) and financial miracles are taking place. It has been so awesome. Any of you been experiencing this in your church? Lets here your story.
Now I am hearing different people say that the same wave is happening in other churches as well. That is awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!
I was scheduled to go in the hospital for test. I had been having some very bad symptoms for a long time. On Thursday I went in, this was after spending the whole time dancing in the spirit the night before. Well they could not find anything wrong and all of my symptoms are gone
Just before Christmas, 2002, my dad lost his job. In March, we lost our house and car. Using an Audi (for 6 people) that my uncle gave to us, we moved into a shelter. After living in a shelter, camping (sometimes in the snow), staying at ACCESS housing, a motel, and my grandmothers, we finally fuond a house to live in. We currently are settling in and my dad has a job. I'm starting school on Thursday and God has brought us through it all, sanity intact. Without God, I think we would haveended up on the street living oout of a box, but everytime we had to leave one place, God found another for us to stay in. We found our current home just after they had lowered the rent because no one would rent it, even though the rent is more than fair. Then, after we moved here, I started looking for a job, and even though everywhere I applied at was hiring, no one called. Just after that, I found out that I could enroll in school for free and did so. Had I taken a job, I woud have needed to quit to start school. Now, i just recieved several calls. God always has perfect timing.
Today was a blessed day! I had to go to the hospital to see a neurologist about headaches I've been having for the last three weeks. I was just sitting there when this verse popped into my head: John 3:30 "He must increase, but I must decrease." I came home late for youth group, but I went anyway. When I walked in, that's exactly what our youth leader was talking about!! God is so faithful!! Hallelujah!!

Just wanted to come in a get a breath of freah air from some of the other post I've been reading on this forum and share this.........
My husband and i have been through alot this past 2 years concerning transportation. 2 years ago I rolled my van on icy roads on the interstate, walked away with not even a scratch but the van was totaled. Then almost exactly 1 year later i was rear ended by a fully loaded semi going about 50 miles an hour. This time the van was again totaled and i was pretty beat up. But, my injuries could have been a lot worse. 6 months after that my husband totaled his truck. By now you can see where the insurance company is getting very cautious with us. They jacked are rates way up and told us to be very careful. Not fair, since none of these accidents were our fault. Well tonight my husband was rear-ended again, HARD! The driver of the other car immediately got out and came to my husband. He barely spoke english. He just kept repeating, so sorry, no drivers license, no insurance. As my husband looked around he could see that the other drivers front end was all smashed and undrivable but when he walked around back, expecting to see a lot of damage, his car was untouched except for a small scratch in the bumper. He could not believe it. He gave God all the Glory all the way home!!!!!!!!!!! (of course after seeing that the other driver got a ride to where he needed to go)
I was asked by friends who Pastor a small church to lead worship at their church while their regular worship leader was out with surgery and recovery.
I had not led worship, playing my guitar for a very long time. I dug my guitar out of the closet (it had been there over a year), got new strings on it and began to practice.
Last night was the first night I led and things went very smoothly. As soon as I started to play and the people began to join in I began to relax.
Thank you Jesus!

Get into the habit of dancing.
It will displace depression
and dispel hardship.

I would like to share one of the many wonderful testimonies I have of what my wonderful Jesus has done for me!!!
My ex was irresponsible with our son.. My little son was only one and a half, when we divorced. (My son was left alone in a car at the age of 9 months in a bad neighborhood while my ex spent an hour inside watching tv and partying!) It was sheer panic time each time I was forced to let my ex take this small miracle from God by the courts. (I spent a lot of time in prayer for his safety.)
Now my son was about two and a half, the courts had ordered a one week period for them to 'vacation together'. My ex and his family decided on whitewater rafting down the Colorado River in Utah. (I'm told this is a very dangerous whitewater trip.)
I went to my lawyer and was told according to the law I could do nothing unless something happened to my child while on the trip!!! I was told I could not stop them or interfere in any way. I was grief stricken and began to cry out to God without ceasing. I prayed and asked Him to stop this trip. Make it too expensive or make the lawyers do something, anything!
The day arrived for my ex to take my beloved child and still no response from the Lord.......or so I thought. As I led my little two and half year old over to my ex, I began to explain I wanted this child to have on a life jacket at ALL times... My ex husband looked up at me strangely and shook his head,
"Yeah, guess we won't be whitewater rafting.... They used the boat last weekend and a rock ripped a hole in the bottom. It's such a bad hole they aren't even sure it can ever be fixed. Guess we will just be camping...."
You can bet I was praising God for His infinite wisdom and mercy!!! I hadn't even thought of His perfect solution!!! HE knew the best way to protect my baby son!!! I'm a witness, when you think things are hopeless, God will put a HOLE IN THE BOAT!!! HE has the perfect answer and often it's not even what we had thought of!
God is SO good, ALL the time!
__________________ John R. Rice once wrote, "I once imagined I was in Heaven, walking along with the Angel Gabriel. I said, "Gabe, what is that big building over there?"
"You'll be disappointed," he answered. "I don't think you want to see it." But I insisted, and he proceeded to show me floor after floor of beautiful gifts, all wrapped and ready to be sent.
"Gabriel, what are all of these?"
He said, I thought rather sadly, "We wrapped all these things, but people never called for them."
There are gifts and an abundance of blessings to be received from heaven -- but we need to claim them as our own! We receive not because we've asked not.
When we ask the Lord in humility and expectation for His goodness, He will answer! Then we'll be better equipped to do the great things He has in store for us.
My folks came up for a vist and we went to a local diner. It was busy and we got stuck in the smoking section. Just after us two men were seated in the next booth. They had several days of road dirt showing and both were chain smokers. As they took their seats they started talking, nothing unusual except that they said nothing but to accuse the 'church*' of whoredom. And in a constant and militant manner. They were not overly loud but their speach had a strange quality, not unlike the guy who talks to himself at eh bus stop. It seemed they wished not to address anyone but be heard by all. And always,,'the church is a whore' this and that is going to happen,,, and the billowing cigarette smoke...
I was about to get another table, I couldnt see putting up with this and trying to relax and eat with the folks. I waited to get the gal's attention when she brought the dark brothers their coffee. Dad stopped me. ' We'll just praise the Lord" he said quietly. He and Mom began softly offering praise . I was facing the dark brothers and as figgetty as they were when they came in, I could see their anxiety level rise.The sofly spoken praise continued.
In a few minutes the gal came back to get the dinner order from the dark brothers. With out even finishing their coffee thay abruptly got up and left.
Take care
