Thanks. I'll look into this. I've been downloading apps and worship songs for kids (she likes music) in the meantime. She's coming along. She's participating more during worship service and starting to pray a little on her own without me having to tell her to. So I'm excited about that.

Hello All, I just wanted some advice from other parents who have small children around kindergarten age. I have a 5 year old daughter, and I'm trying to figure out the best way to explain the Gospel to her. She has some understanding of God and who Jesus is but it dawned on me today that I...

After God delivers us, we have to walk in that deliverance meaning renew our minds through the Word daily and make decisions based on His Word. We have to see what His Word says concerning that issue and confess it. That's how the faith to maintain our deliverance will come. Faith comes by...

There are still people and churches that believe in deliverance. I think we have to maintain balance though. I do not believe in demonology or studying demons, but I do believe strongly that God still delivers us from demonic oppression and bondage. I have been praying concerning this area as I...

Hello CF Family, How do you all distinguish between someone operating in a prophetic anointing versus someone operating under the influence of a familiar spirit in your churches/ministries? Praying for an increase in all of our discernment. God bless

I don't think she's judging her. I think she has a genuine concern here. We are to know them that labor among us and admonish us in the faith. The Bible also says that open rebuke is better than secret love. Over and over we are admonished to correct each other in love & submit to one another...

Why hasn't leadership made her sit down?

As I stated previously, God manifests Himself through many different kinds of relationships. That's why He's referred to in Scripture as the Great I AM. It is this Name of God that many of us posting in this thread really need a revelation of... If someone needs a father figure, God can manifest...

Yes, I am still in prayer concerning this situation, and our next meeting is tomorrow...

These are good questions. I would have to investigate this further since I am still fairly new to the ministry. Do you feel that all pastors have to have formal education in theology? Personally, I believe God can still use someone even if they don't have any formal training but I see the...

She is the co-pastor. Her and her husband pastor the church together. He takes on the primary leadership role but they typically pastor together. It's a small congregation. There are other ministers at the church, but they are the only pastors.

They are non-denominational as am I, but we share WOF beliefs. The teaching I receive there has been pretty sound thus far it's just this issue that occurred today. I know no church is perfect so I try to keep that in mind wherever I go. I just want to be in God's will.

Setting the dream to the side... if you feel that this relationship is not of God and you are unsettled in your spirit, then you should let him go. Sometimes we have to forsake others for Christ especially if this man isn't saved or isn't taking his relationship with Christ seriously enough to...

I would go to God for myself and speak His Word concerning my child.

Yes, I am really going to be in prayer about this the next few days. I want to be led by God in whatever I do. I appreciate everyone's responses, and I definitely do not want a repeat. This has made me not want to respond to anymore altar calls.. smh

You are correct.. I'm fairly new to this ministry so I'm still in the process of building relationships. The person who I have the closest relationship with is actually the one who is responsible.. But I do get what you are saying. That's why I want to be careful in how I approach the...

Hi Job, Thank you for your insights. As I stated in the OP, I do believe that people can fall under the presence/anointing of God and that it is Scriptural. I don't know if I would call it "slain in the Spirit." I never really liked that term and I never found myself in any sleep-like state...

I have been comfortable with the church up until this point. I'm fairly new. I started fellowshipping with them back in August and decided to join a few months later. I drive about 20 minutes to get there. The people are really loving and welcoming which is what played a big role in my decision...

Yes I'm confident this was not of God. God doesn't shove us to the floor.. I'm just not sure how to approach this situation with my pastors. They are husband and wife which only complicates the situation even more...

Hello Everyone, I had an interesting phenomena occur today, and I would like some advice concerning this topic. Before I begin I want to say that I DO believe in the laying on of hands and the manifestations of the Holy Spirit as defined in Scripture. I also believe that there are spirits that...
