K-018b the Spirit of the Lord 2 of 2 — Art Katz

So we're studying a day in the life of a couple of Jewish men who are men of the spirit, which is the only way to be Jewish. And we're seeing how they're being obedient to the heavenly vision. So it contradicts many of our conventional even our evangelical understandings.

And how that in the order of their steps by the Lord. By this direction they were brought out of a city where we would have thought that they should more likely have gone and just went out to a riverside where a group of women were accustomed to making prayer and There we read in the 14th verse a certain woman named Lydia a seller of purple of the city of fire Tira.

Which worshiped God heard us whose heart the Lord opened that she attended unto the things which were spoken of Paul. Isn't that beautiful? I'll tell you it should make us almost blush. Because how many times have we attended to the things which were spoken by the polls which God had sent us.

Has there ever been a generation more indulged spiritually speaking than we? Has any generation ever heard more speakers more faiths read more literature been immersed in more and more knowledge of spiritual things than we and.

Yet, where has what where's the reflection of it? Where is the concomitant maturity and growth as the result of such speaking. It's almost as if we should call a moratorium and they'll have to be no more speaking until we've caught up in our experience to What we have already heard.

We think that meetings are the end all and be all of our Christian endeavor that the whole purpose of our existence is to be Called together in meetings that we might hear more teaching. It was not so from the beginning.

What a woman is this whose heart the Lord opened because she attended to the things which were spoken of Paul. How do you know that? Where's the proof comes right next verse. And when she was baptized?

I know she attended because her hearing eventuated in her acting. Where you say big deal, what's baptism? Everything everything. Maybe you need a Jewish guy to remind you of the enormous profundity of baptism.

I told you I'm beginning to get be called off the Baptist and Leaving a trail of wet bodies all across Europe plunged into bathtubs if we can't find anything better. Baptism is the ultimate act of separation and commitment.

Now Paul and silence gonna leave town a couple of days. But this woman is remaining with the stigma of public baptism upon her. That's a woman may God raise up the Lydia's for our generation. Willing to receive that stigma.

She heard the way of God and she did. Despite the cost and her whole household so I can only assume that the children were so kindred with her in spirit. That they saw the light with her and received the same blessing.

And she'd be sort of saying if you have judged me to be Faithful to the Lord come into my house and abide there and she constrained them. No, beautiful word the very same word that God uses in speaking about these two disciples on the road to Emmaus.

Jesus made as if he would have gone on and he would have but they constrained him to come in. And he abode with them and broke bread and their eyes were opened. I'm saying a lot of things about this modern generation.

What do I said so far? Insecure glib unctuous. Full of vacillation. Compromise if ands and buts. I suppose I should say another thing. They don't know how to constrain God. Everything has been lived from the surface of our lives.

There's never been a more plastic generation instant see why now pay later. Never been greater age of convenience and ease. We haven't known what it means to groan. Anything to come out of our gut as we do say out of the kishker.

But she constrained them to come in. How do we give them this? Well, if you're in the neighborhood, why don't you drop in? Hoping against hope they won't drop in when the football game is on and keep us from our pleasure.

Now I'll tell you I know in that part of the world that when someone comes under your roof and Enjoys your hospitality and breaks bread with you. You're one with them. And therefore what they are you are and what stigma they receive you receive she constrained them to come in.

No wonder that God shows her as the first of his fruit in Philippi. To begin the body of Christ. Oh, isn't there always a woman at the inception of God's work? Because it says the eye of God rose to and fro over the face of the earth.

Seeking that one whose heart is perfect for him that he might show herself strong in that life. And it wasn't so much for God to send two of his choices servants the great apostles himself. From Asia where he was successfully laboring all the way to Greece that he might bring the Word of God to a woman that she might be brought more perfectly into the way and be one of the the founding stones of the body of Christ there and.

Spiritual Discernment and the Deliverance of the Oppressed

So it came to pass as we went to prayer a certain damsel possessed with a spirit of divination met us which brought her masters much gained by. The same follow Paul left and cried saying these men are the service of the most high God may have to hear this as she said it.

Demoniacal voice cracked high-pitched makes a chill run down your spine. These men are the servants of the most high God. This wasn't the woman speaking. These were the filthy spirits speaking out of her who shall want to us the way of salvation.

Yes, and This did she many days and Paul being grieved turned the command of the evil spirits. Come on came on the same. Oh, no, I used to read that Paul being bugged. Paul being irritated. Oh man, not at all.

Now you get out. No Paul being grieved. There's a lot different than Paul being bugged. Paul being irritated and in that children life an important principle of God. How is it when we have said come out of her they don't come out?

How is it when we have prayed be healed? They don't they're not healed. We have faith we believe. We have faith, but do we have love? Because it's the faith which worketh by love. Paul being grieved. Paul being stricken.

Paul being cut in his heart. Paul Anguishing over the sight of a woman whose life was not her own. Who is a cheap piece of merchandise exploited by vicious men for profit? Commanded the evil spirit to come out and he came out of that.

Jesus had compassion compassion on the multitude and they were all healed. We're children of faith, but we also are we also with children of love. Are we grieved you say art. When I'll hear a woman like that you can be assured I'll be grieved also.

Oh boy, are you ever shallow? They're everywhere about us don't you see them. You have to wait for a high-pitched voice. You have to hear that crack demoniacal shriek. I'll tell you there are people who are wearing pinstripes to whose voices are never raised beyond monotone who live perfectly ordered lives.

Ethical moral culture who are as much slaves to Satan as this woman. Whose lives are not their own. Who is marching by a beat that is ordered out of hell and Don't even know it. This woman knew she was possessed.

But my the pity is the greater. For those who have no knowledge that they are securely in the hands of the evil one and their lives are not their own. All children. The evil taskmaster is cracking an invisible whip over the backs of millions of men.

Fear. Insecurity keeping up with the Joneses. Men on rat mills. Mazes the sweating the grinding the filthy lives. What goes on behind shut doors and pulled shades. The rent marriages of the broken home.

The shrieks. I'll never forget walking in on my mother one day. Married to a man who's now deceased and they were going at it hammering tongues. The veins were standing out on their necks and her eyes were bulging out of her head and she had a big Venetian Ashtray hand ready to crack her husband on a skull.

They were moved to such a pitch of vexation and anger and bitterness with each other. They couldn't be reconciled. Neither one knew God. Vexatious youth coming at each other like tigers and I'll tell you that scene is enacted everywhere.

Daily abortions miscarriages. Unhappy episodes. In love affairs disappointment heartache, there's a groaning mankind if you have ears to hear. What are you seeing anyhow by the natural eye by the eye of the spirit?

And you see when you see a man with a pinstripe suit. And he seems to have everything in order and he has decorum and propriety and is well-spoken you assume That all is well if we're children of the spirit called in the age of the spirit.

We need to also to see by the eye of the spirit That everywhere about us. There are people With demoniacal shrieks and cries although they give every outward appearance of having everything in its place.

They need to be set free in the power of the spirit by those who are grieved In love and have also authority and faith you say art. What is the reward for such outstanding service? Will I receive a plaque from the Junior Chamber of Commerce man of the year?

Or maybe the B 'nai B 'rith will single me out for meritorious service because I've been obedient to the heavenly vision. I'll tell you if you've got a plaque from the B 'nai B 'rith. I would be very suspicious.

Persecution as the Cost of Obedience

Here's the reward for your obedient service. And when her masters saw that the hope of their gains was gone. They caught Paul and Silas and drew them into the marketplace unto the rulers and brought them to the magistrate saying these men being Jews do exceedingly trouble our city and teach customs which are not lawful for us to receive neither to observe being Romans and.

The multitude rose up together against them and the magistrates rent off their clothes and commended beat them. And when they had laid many stripes upon them They cast them into prison charging the jailer to keep them safely who haven't received such a charge.

Thrust them into the inner prison and made their feet fast and the stock if this is more than historical episode. If this is a definitive pattern of God Then we should have every reasonable expectation That the obedience for the Holy Spirit rendered by us Shall eventuate and result in the same consequences that it did for them.

It was true for Jesus. It was true for that generation of disciples and it shall be and must be true also for us. Didn't it behoove the Messiah to suffer and to die before he ascended to his glory. Jesus said to those who are slow.

There's a certain behooving. There's a certain must suffer. There's a certain thought that cannot be avoided. Obedience to the Holy Spirit Will not result in being chaired around the marketplace with a wreath around your forehead and being applauded by men.

But it shall result always in reproach persecution suffering and perhaps death. And I'll tell you what children it may not only come from the world. You may get a bit of it from those who call themselves Christians also and the multitude rose up together against them.

What did I say last night? You have two Jews you get three arguments. But there's one thing in which all three branches of Judaism agree orthodox conservative and reform. They don't agree among themselves about almost anything and look upon each other with with the jaundiced eye.

But on this one thing they're agreed is there's a Jew who believes in Jesus. He's written out of the Jewish community. He's no longer a Jew and the multitude rose up together against them. And I'll tell you that as God as moving to bring about the unity of his body Satan is moving also to bring about the unity of his and.

Two sons are going to battle it out at the end of the ages and probably honest I can't think of it one issue that shall more Coalesce the antagonistic forces to God political social Economic and religious than the opposition to God's people and the multitude Rose up together against them.

Those that live godly lives in Christ shall suffer persecution. I Guess my first disappointment as a young believer coming back fresh from Jerusalem stunned by the discovery of God. Fully and naively expecting that when I took up my place in a Pentecostal congregation in California that I would see the continuation of the book of Acts to find out a lack and alas That it was no such thing.

It was only a kind of country club. Kind of sport kind of idle Sunday service thing that had no impact on the community whatsoever. Neither was there therefore any persecution or any reproach it was altogether Groovy, but I believe with all my heart That this age is going to end exactly as it began in an apostolic manner and the power of the Spirit Men directed by the Holy Spirit not by programs not by organizations not by human devices nor ambitions.

But the Heavenly Father Empowered and anointed by that spirit to fulfill God's messianic task in the unity of the spirit one people the body of Christ a Besieged community of believers small. I'm not expecting great numbers an island of belief and spirit life in a sea of hostility and bitterness and opposition.

That's the way the age began. That's the way it shall also end. And the magistrates rent off their clothes and commanded to beat them and when they had laid many stripes upon them I was telling the boys in the TV room.

Joseph as a Picture of End-Time Obedience

I mean, I'm familiar with TV techniques. I've made many programs. And how not too long ago. I made about 14 programs at Portsmouth, Virginia at CBN Christian Broadcasting Network. Without me sports without separation arriving in the city in an exhausted condition.

Just trembling like a leaf. Where do I come to follow men like Bob Mumford and other Significant teachers of the day. I'm out of my element. I'm over my head. What am I going to say? And my only thought was to get to a hotel get some rest be prepared the next day.

I never got there. God had me someplace that night something happened and the next morning I woke up no time to pray to prepare myself. And I woke up with one word in my heart Joseph. And I try to shake it.

That's not an end time message. I Couldn't get rid of Joseph. I came to the studio. It was all set up. I Mean it was all set up three or four cameras more expensive equipment light Set the these productions run thousands and thousands of dollars and I was trembling.

I said look at me. I'm not a pro. This is just podcast Brooklyn boy. Look, I don't know what to say. I don't have any script. I've had time to prepare. I only have one word in my heart Joseph. Can we pray together?

We went to a little football huddle in the middle of that room. And we just cried to the Lord Lord direct us by your spirit and when that huddle broke I still had one word in my heart Joseph. And I was arguing with God Lord.

That's not an end time message but I had and I thought if I blow this first program if it becomes a mess if I've missed the leading of God and I go off on some tangent that has that that isn't good. We're going to lose the continuity.

We're going to lose the the whole flow and the whole thing is going to say and collapse and be on the net my reputation. Let alone thousands of dollars of production time and equipment like that. But there was no other word in my heart, but Joseph.

I had a hunch and So when the red lights went on the camera, I took a deep breath and I began to speak about Joseph and guess what happened. He had anointing of God. He is not going to anoint those things which are not in his will and his good pleasure to do.

And as I heard myself speaking It I heard it coming forth out of my mouth by the unction of the Holy Spirit. I began to see. This is an end time message. This Hebrew who was rejected of his brothers. They despised him for the faith for his dreams and all the more for the words.

Which he spoke is a picture of God's body in the end time. Cast into pit and cast into dungeon suffering reproach and persecution. But knowing the intimacy of God in the fellowship of his suffering and in the moment of God's pleasing just like Jesus himself brought up out of obscurity and hiddenness.

In the moment of maturity at a time when famine has swept all Egypt or is Potentially ready to break and all of the wise men of Egypt cannot be. What an end time picture and this Joseph the true Hebrew says Pharaoh said in I hear that you can give answer and no most usually said hmm boy.

Here's my opportunity. I'll let him believe it's me and Elevate me and I'll insinuate myself with him and then I'll be in a position to do my brother's good. Isn't it exactly what Joseph might have said about pot of bars?

Seductive attempts. Listen this woman's got eyes for me and God knows I haven't had an opportunity up until now and I'm a red-blooded Jewish boy and you know and. And I'll be in good with her and good with her husband.

I'll be in a position to do my brother's good. And she said come lie with me. End-time temptation. When you've got those end-time glasses on children and pick up those old Hebrew texts whammo searing temptation in the end time.

But he refused. That's the man that God uses and he had another temptation perhaps more seductive than pot of bars. Pharaoh said I hear that you can give answer and we would say yes, I can. But Joseph said it is not in me.

The Lord shall give you answer. And God did give answer and Sarah had to turn to his wife and say can we find such a one as this. In whom the Spirit of God is the Spirit of the Lord was upon him. So he had anointed him as an end-time son to give answer in an age of extremity and crisis.

But all the wise men of Egypt could not. Not by might not by power not by cleverness not by strategy and not by technique. But by my spirit say if the Lord you know how those Hebrews were looked upon.

Lowly beggars cheapers the lowest scum of the earth. He'd be the sophisticated Egyptians and all their occult practices looked upon the Hebrews as the lowest of the low. Simple, but God gave answers to such a mouth.

That was the first of those TV programs and we went on that day making program after program without script without preparation. And one was more glorious than the other. And then I went to bed that night.

I couldn't hit wait to hit that stack. Man I was exhausted wiped out and tomorrow had to conclude what I began. And I didn't know again to what I was gonna do the next day. And I just I left the trail of clothing from the morning.

I walked into the hotel room right to the bed and with my last ounce of energy I took that last leap and hit the switch of the light and fell asleep. I hit my head hit the pillow and nothing happened.

So I punched the pillow and put my head down another and I turned it this way nothing happened. And I don't know how I was writhing and turning and finally in the disgust. I put on a light. It was two o 'clock and I hadn't yet closed my eyes and I was wiped out.

So I said, well, that's what you get kept for being a Jewish boy and going to bed without washing. Did your mother sell teach you better than that. So I got out of bed. Fully repentant and took a hot bath.

I mean a hot bath. And I almost fainted in the tub and I got out weak, you know. Daggering to the bed, you know one last merch to make it. I thought I'm gonna form a floor and there and whatever position I land.

That's what I'm gonna remain the rest of the night dead out. But I made it to the bed hit the light. So I punched the pillow I took. I finally turned the light on it was 620 730. I had to be at the studio.

I Had no sleep whatsoever. But the programs on the second day were more glorious than the first. Because this strength is made perfect in our weakness. He'll take the worst tactics of the enemy and turn it to the good.

I Think my best moments in prayer have come When Satan has worked me over in the middle of the night hours and roasted me on a spit and buffeted me. And I can't sleep in house might as well get on my knees and call on the Lord.

I've had great times in God that way. So use the work of the enemy. So I made a program on x16. I said to these technicians. I said have you got a Whip and handcuffs in the place catch you too much. With the handcuffs, what do you think this is an armory?

It happened to be there was a police station like a block away so they wouldn't they got a pair of handcuffs and the studio guide made me as the prop man making a whip out of a broom handle and Then pieces of white leather from like a plastic and he tied ugly pieces of metal and glass like a cat of nine tails.

I mean, it was a vicious looking instrument. I Said now when the program begins all of this without a script without preparation. I'm just talking on the top of my head. The old pro carrying on I do this every day I said when the program begins with that, I want that camera focusing on these instruments in my hand.

And that's the way the program began. I'm feeling the heft of this set of handcuffs and the whip and then I began speaking in this manner To an audience that was to be invisible. I suppose you're wondering what these implements have to do with a gospel telecast.

And my answer to you is everything They have ever and always had to do with the promulgation of the gospel and So shall they have again to do at the end of the ages for those that shall be obedient to the heavenly spirit.

And then I went on to the message which I'm speaking to you today Children, I'm not expecting to end this life with my in a nice safe comfortable way in my bed and Many of us shall bear in our body as Paul himself experienced the marks of Jesus Christ before we pass this life.

Spiritual Strength in Weakness and Suffering

These are the last hours there's going to be a titanic collision Between light and darkness and there are going to be casualties and no man shall be able to endure and be sustained in such extremity except by the same Holy Spirit.

I tremble for every well-meaning Baptist and by that I mean every denominational person and there are many wonderful fine Christians of that description. Who know not the fullness of the Holy Spirit who shall not be able to stand in that hour.

Except they do. Many stripes were laid upon them know what that means. I used to be a boxing fan Every Wednesday and Friday night. This was before maybe you were born. It was fight night and I was always glued to the television set.

I loved it man when the guy tagged against the rope. My heart was pounding with excitement when the mouthpiece went flying around across the ring. I could hardly wait for the knockout and we was really tottering ready to go down.

This was living. I loved it to come back. So one day I went to the arena to watch a fight in the flesh and I've never been a boxing fan since. The first blow that landed crack and the guy pulled away his glove.

I saw a big red welt the size of the glove and the ribs of the other boxer and I began to get like a Sickly feeling in my stomach and then there were more whacks and cracks and sucks. And when that mouthpiece did go flying across the ring, I was almost doubled up and with nausea in my feet.

I saw real blood real ooze real crunching blows blood and spittle and it was sickening. I somehow never got that impact watching the TV fest and here's my point. Your whole generation has grown up in front of the boob tube.

I mean that not only literally I mean it also symbolically. You've been insulated. Sheltered you've not gotten the full brunt and force and impact of life as it is. But it's been filtered down and through and refined that you have not understood it in its totality.

God needs to open our eyes and I praise him for his his discreetness and many stripes were laid upon them. You know what that means? 39 to be exact. According to the Jewish tradition that lest they go over 40 the prescribed number, which is the judgment.

They stopped one short, but you know what 39 strokes means with a vicious instrument license. Can you picture Paul and Silas publicly humiliated and their clothes stripped from them in the marketplace?

And I'll tell you children wherever you shall touch this present world system by the power of the spirit. You're going to bought to bought before the rulers and the magistrates in the marketplace where the action is.

Catch you sound so much like the start the communists you once were that's got not anything to do with that kind of kid stuff. I'm not talking about communism or socialism or capitalism. I'm talking about this world system ruled over by the prince of darkness that plays upon the ambitions and lust and Gratifications of men.

And if you rock it and thought to challenge it and set captive free by the power of spirit. You're going to see yourself brought before the magistrates and rulers. There's a reason why tongues are being torn out of Christian heads behind the iron curtain.

Because they instinctively and intuitively know this people are a danger to the established order. They're not a people who go along. They constitute a threat and something rises up vicious against them.

Many stripes were laid upon me. Can you hear that first crack and you imagine what it meant for a do like Paul. Perfect according to the law the decorum the propriety. Impeccable in his conduct to be publicly stripped naked before a crowd.

That alone with is suffering. And then the first crack crack the sound of it will make you sick and. Then you see that see the moth on the body as the throngs go right around the back and over the chest and over the legs.

And a big ugly red welt and there we get 38 more strokes to go crack. And what was the first red has been turning now somewhat blue crack something thickly green crack purple crack the skin is red crack and These throngs cut right into the open flesh and right to the bone and we haven't yet counted 10.

I'll tell you that when these men were cast into the lower dungeon bound. You never saw a more sickly and pathetic sight. That's the reward for your obedience to the Holy Spirit in one form or another.

And I suppose if we can say that we're discussing the principles of God we can almost make a mathematical formula that the consequences of Our obedience is going to be an exact proportion to the degree rendered.

You want to know something children? I've never before spoken that sentence. Never And never before occurred to me. God is doing something right in the present moment spontaneously. He's stating the principle you shall suffer in exact proportion to the degree of your obedience.

Rendered and if you shall be obedient to that suffering. Guess what God shall order next? He'll call you from faith to faith. Or more properly from death to death and that's why the love of many shall grow cold.

Not many have a stomach for that kind of service. He used to be groovy art. You're a wet blanket, man. I used to love the Jesus movement and we had great times witnessing and playing guitar and singing songs and going witnessing.

Don't misunderstand me. I'm not altogether knocking that then there's some value. But many were having a great time. I'm not going to be around in that last time. The forces are going to be reduced. Because not everyone has a stomach for the crown of thorns.

But those who are willing to wear that crown shall also wear another called the crown of glory. These men being Jews do exceedingly trouble out there. Praise God, what do they say? You don't have to be Jewish to like Levy's rye bread the famous advertising campaign in America for a Jewish rye bread company, which is a Jewish delight, you know could they show you a Chinaman biting into a nice pastrami sandwich with rye bread.

Or a black man, you don't have to be Jewish to like Levy's rye bread. I'll take it one for the children. You don't have to be born Jewish to be this kind of Jew. It's all an operation of the spirit and a circumcision of the heart and not the flesh.

The Holy Spirit, Jewish Identity, and Troubling the Cities

And as I and and esteeming the praise of God greater than the praise of men. To be this kind of Jew who shall exceedingly trouble our city and don't they need it? I'll tell you my first night in Switzerland in Zurich.

I sobbed like it like a child. Convulsive groanings and breakings. I was stretched out like a dead man in the apartment of these German believers in Zurich. After we had spent a couple of hours walking through the streets of Zurich.

When is somebody going to shake Zurich? When it's not somebody going to shake Lausanne. When is somebody going to shake Geneva when it shot somebody going to shake Berlin and Frankfurt and Paris? Moscow.

And all the great cities where men are moving to their doom without the slightest awareness that there aren't such a course. God is looking for Jews who will exceedingly trouble cities. Now I'll tell you Satan has already employed many by the name of a be Hoffman Jerry Rubin and Other unnamed Jews who make bombs who start student rebellions.

Who belong to the weatherman to the to the radical groups who deal in pornography. They're shaking cities for Satan. But we're the Jews of God. Under the power of his spirit to shake cities for Christ.

It's not a task for amateurs and it's not a task for children. It's a task for mature men and women under the anointing of the Holy Spirit. Sent forth to the chief city by a heavenly vision and the reward is Not a wreath not a plaque.

Suffering and humiliation and shame. We come to one of the most glorious scriptures in the entire Holy Book the 25th verse of the 16th chapter of the book of Acts. Picture Paul and Silas and their feet in stocks.

I'll tell you I'm the kind of guy I am as they say in Yiddish. I have no this flesh. I can't even sit in charismatic meetings of more than a hair follow. I get all kind of I get itchy. I got the general position.

It hurts. I got a move. I got a stretch. I just can't sit. Imagine your feet bound in stocks. You can't even alter your position and your back is hanging in shreds. Imagine the stink of that cell. Maybe some of you have been to Rome and have visited the cell in which Paul had spent this last year.

I had a stoop over. Because the ceiling is so low it glistens with sweat. It's a black hole and the smell of human urine and feces. Exists though. It's not been used as a prison for centuries. Imagine what it smells like when it was used.

The stench alone is Asphyxiating the scurrying of rats and vermin the groans of men. It is like going into a fair and a hell confined congested and compressed. You can't move an awful position your back hanging in shreds and Unspeakable pain.

I know that every one of us would be coming say Oh God, where did I go wrong? How did I miss it? I was obedient to the heavenly vision and look at me now. But you know we read isn't that what we say for much lesser things get stood up on a date.

You don't get the income tax return you think you ought. You didn't get the grade in school that you think you deserve. You want to applaud and approve the way you think that you ought. It's not going the way you like it.

You're Here are men in a condition of unspeakable suffering that eclipses anything that any of us and all of us together have ever experienced in the world and it says that midnight Paul and Silas prayed and Sang praises and to God our children.

One minute's respectful silence before we go on because we're at this moment circled about by an invisible crowd of witnesses of Men throughout the ages who have prayed and sang praises to God in the midst of their adversity and suffering looking upon us.

Who are the concluding generation? Waiting for us to finish the race that is set before us that we might we do it together. Always made a big deal about praising the charismatic movement. It's almost become a technique in a formula.

Get him up out of their seats. Get him to lift their hands above their head get him to sing this course and if you do it enough and get it. Excited up you didn't we have a great meeting. It's almost become a methodology and a technique of manipulation.

But I'll tell you it's holy holy Holy the gift of the Spirit our holy gift sacred Divine Enablements for every contingency and every need at the end of the ages and my Jewish soul witnesses for every desecration and misuse for men speaking about the Holy Spirit and if he's come to enhance their denominations and make them more groovy and Spice up our meetings and make them interesting.

Oh, did you hear that prophecy? Did you hear that uttering holy gift holy enablement for holy text by the Holy Spirit at the end of the ages? Children have a reverence for the Holy Spirit of God. They prayed and sent praises unto God and as I said before, I don't care how conscientious a Christian you are.

However, well-meaning in that kind of extremity and crisis. There is not a way that you could praise God and worship him except by the Holy Spirit. Many of us have a tough time even in situations like this.

We don't feel so good today. Our tongues are heavy in our mouths. They feel like sawdust. What did she mean by that statement yesterday? And we feel a little sullen. I'm not too crazy for this speaker.
