God is great! Today was a blessed day. After my wife went to work I watched the movie Saint Ralph. God spoke to me as I was watching. I think God wants me to stop smoking, and after watching that movie, I think I know how He wants me to do it. I have faith that I will be able to stop smoking.
After the movie, I was a little restless, so I got in the car and drove. I came across a woman whose car had stalled. I felt that I should stop and help her, so I offered my service. After both hoods were open I noticed a bandanna hanging from her rear view mirror. It said I heart Jesus (where the heart is a symbol for love). We weren't able to get her car started and there was a thunderstorm looming. After a while she took the jumper cables off of both vehicles and thanked me. I told her to have a blessed evening.
I headed to a local Christian bookstore and then my plan was to go to the Bible study at the Hendrick's house. But before I got there my good friend and brother in Christ Dale called. The call came when I was in a spot where my phone doesn't get good signal, so I pulled into the parking lot of the local Christian bookstore so we could talk.
He suggested that I go in to that bookstore because they have a House of Prayer service on Friday nights. I was right on time.
I was greeted, and directed on where the service takes place. I sat down and felt at peace. We had fellowship for a short time before service began. I hadn't been to a House of Prayer service before, so I was not sure what to expect.
The service started with a teaching from Hebrews and then prayer worship with music. I found that the music helped to focus my mind, and I began to pray. So much of what was said confirmed a few thoughts that I had running around my mind, and the Holy Spirit filled me completely. I had my head bowed and my eyes clamped shut so I would not see if anyone was watching me, and I could be free to let the Spirit move me. The Spirit came over me twice and I felt that I was going to be lifted into the air. My head and chest physically rose up with His power.
Praise be to God!
