HE’S POURING OUT HIS SPIRIT ON ALL MEN
by Faith Living
Do you ever wonder when Father God is going to begin pouring out His spirit on all men? Well, wonder no more. Step outside and start talking to people. Don’t preach to them, but listen to their experiences. I have a friend who’s only been to church during one week of her life. It…

MOMMA’S NOTEBOOK FOR FOLLOWING HOLY SPIRIT
by Faith Living
My Momma had a notebook that assisted her in following Holy Spirit. She took it to church stuffed with lyrics, choruses, hymns, and worship songs. Some pages are from old hymnals, but others are typewritten sheets or handwritten scraps on the back of old browned pieces of paper. You see, Momma played the organ and…

TEST THE SPIRITS part two
by Faith Living
Can we test the spirits of people who’ve died? I discovered its quite simple, but we are often held in unnecessary fear on this subject. I had quite a bit of it until Father pointed out that the fear was keeping me from experiencing Him without limits. I often asked Him not to scare me and He showed me…

KNOWING GOD, without being taught
by Faith Living

Questions about life received short, pert sentences that inferred threat if this line of communication was pursued. Questions about christianity…

SET MY BROTHER FREE!
by Faith Living
Dream In my dream, I was a young man in my early twenties trying to visit my twin brother in a mental health facility. (I’ll call myself Joe and my brother Jim.) The receptionist told me I couldn’t see Jim because it was time for him to eat his dinner and then take his evening…

QUESTIONS ???
by Faith Living
There’s a huge difference in a question asked in sincerity and a question asked with a motive. The first wants your honest input. The second has an agenda to change your mind. I’ve been on the receiving end of both types of questions and been the perpetrator of both. It is common strategy throughout most…

MONEY CHANGERS
by Faith Living
Can we talk a minute about Jesus and the money-changers? He didn’t whip, or chase away sinners, nor did He judge them very harshly. But the money changers brought on a whole different response than we see any other place from our Lord. Lets think about this. We are the temple. This verse depicts a physical example of our hearts. …
