I was saved and water baptized unto Jesus Christ at approximately age ten.
When in my thirties, I renewed my relationship with the Lord and received the Holy Ghost – the baptism of the Holy Spirit.
During the late nineties and early 2000’s the Lord, began to teach me deeper things and to impart revelation and light into my life. This process was the fulfillment of a dream that the Lord showed me after I prayed seeking a more in-depth relationship with Him.
The Lord has now turned my attention to the Father’s Eternal Promise and the part that we (The Church) are to play in seeing His authority and Kingdom manifested “on earth as it is in Heaven.”
I have adopted the following scriptural passage as a pattern for myself as I proceed to learn and make widely known the power of Utterance, Speaking in Tongues, and Spiritual Gifts:
And I, brethren, when I came to you, came not with excellency of
speech or of wisdom, declaring unto you the testimony of God.
For I determined not to know anything among you, save Jesus Christ,
and him crucified.
And I was with you in weakness, and in fear, and in much trembling.
And my speech and my preaching was not with enticing words of
man’s wisdom, but in demonstration of the Spirit and of power:
That your faith should not stand in the wisdom of men, but in the
power of God. 1 Corinthians 2: 1-5.
My job and intent is to be used by the Spirit of Christ Jesus the Lord to teach and show to His Body all things useful for Spiritual development to the end that His resurrection power is clearly displayed by the Church.
Fluency in Utterance, Speaking in Tongues and the Spiritual Gifts is the method.
Putting the principalities and powers in heavenly places on notice (Ephesians 3:8-12), destroying the works of the devil (1 John 3:8), and accomplishing the Great Commission (Mark 16: 15-18) is the goal.
