What in the World Is Going On?
Today's Scripture
Reading: Acts 16:25-26 Key
Verses: Acts 16:25-26
At midnight Paul and Silas were praying and singing hymns
to God, and the prisoners were listening to them. Suddenly there
was a great earthquake, so that the foundations of the prison
were shaken; and immediately all the doors were opened
and everyone's chains were loosed.
We
have a problem in the church. By the time our preachers arise to
preach
we should be already delivered. We should already be healed. By
the time
our ministers preach their messages, our sadness should have been turned to
gladness!
Paul and Silas simply did what the seraphim did in Isaiah's day; they
created
glory and gave it to God. The He showed up, and His footsteps rocked
the prison
they had turned into a temple.
Your problems should not be nearly as big by the end of a true worship
service.
Why? You already should have enthroned God with glory! And when
He shows
up, darkness has to flee.
If we were really to bless Him in our church services, I am convinced that
the
doors would start shaking. If we were really to bless Him, the angels
in heaven
would have to peek down and say, "What in the world is going on? Why
is the
Almighty standing up? Now He is taking a seat among them!"
Just praise Him and give Him the glory due His name!
Lord, I repent of waiting for a man or woman to stand before releasing my
faith
for healing, deliverance, or relief from the troubles of life. Your
best for me is found
in You! I will worship and honor You continually, and I trust that You
will respond
to the glory I give You by joining me in sweet communion. It is there
in Your pres-
ence that I will find all that I need.

Thank you for keeping the tornado from Boone and thank you for the
word from Cross Carrying Chuck about Boone being an unholy
town and that a "tornado" would come. We are unholy. We really
care little about God- just appearances, money and our own personal
agendas. There's a lot of con-games here.
He should know about towns- He's walked across
America 11 times.
And then- we go under a tornado watch.
Tornado.
In Boone
It don't happen up here y'all.
Think about it.
