I went w/ CherCher this morning to church, and it turned out to be a wild ride with the Holy Spirit…
The service today was unusual, in that Pastor Mike didn’t speak. Instead a couple, Don and Sophie, shared stories about what God did in the several countries they traveled to. Phillipines, Lithuania.. They showed videos of people being so overcome by the Spirit, they were just swaggering under His presence :D
So we went into a time of ministering, and God’s presence totally came into the sanctuary. Don was calling out people, praying for them. Calling out healing, so . with such faith! I watched him as he ministered, and it really looked like Jesus was just standing alongside him ministering. He was an older man, maybe late 70’s, so kind . so gentle-spirited, and just pure in the way he knew the Lord.
As he was calling people up, man my spirit was calling out to the Holy spirit, “PICK ME! CHOOSE ME! GIVE ME A WORD LORD!!” I know God speaks to individuals, but I wanted what Don had experienced. whatever God had given him, I wanted imparted to me. I was crying in my spirit, a MANTLE God! a mantle! I won’t leave this place until you impart to me!!
The service was going longer and I was worried that Cher might have to go back. It was 1:26, and I asked,
“God should i leave?”
“10 minutes, wait 10 minutes”
okay. so i waited. looked again . 1:31, ok five more minutes…
then Don said, “You two precious ladies, can I pray for you? Yes, you girls!” BAM BABY! MY TURN TO RECIEVE!!
WHOA, God’s presence was strong over him! He told us to close our eyes and recieve, man, I could feel God’s presence coming as he walked over. He laid his hands on us, and dude, I cringed under the Spirit. It always happens like that. He said to Cheryl, ” You’re a thinker!” and he said to me, ” You’re a shouter!” I laughed!! Yes Lord, me ! He began to speak over us, discernment for Cheryl, and about ministering on our campus. how it was important to co-labor, and partner. Man, God.
man, God IS getting ready. to do something at Cal Poly, in my spirit I cry out for God to just COME. just come Lord. get us ready Lord. more than just unity, more than fuzzy feelilngs. more God, more.
isn’t it good?
