Praying in the Spirit controls your tongue.

Praying in the Spirit controls your tongue.

As we discuss the many reasons why we should speak in tongues, let me include an important one here: Speaking in tongues helps to submit the tongue. And I believe we all agree that our tongues need to be submitted! “But the tongue, no man can tame; it is an unruly evil, full of deadly […]

A gift for hungry hearts.

A gift for hungry hearts.

I read another testimony, just after the Second World War, from a denominational missionary in Africa. In 1946, this missionary returned to the United States for the first time after ministering continuously for 37 years in the African bush. When she arrived in New York, she was overwhelmed by the noise, traffic, and crowds. She […]

A little further, a little deeper.

A little further, a little deeper.

This truth was confirmed to me in the 1960s during the move of God in the denominational churches that we call the charismatic movement. I was one of the speakers at a meeting, alongside an Episcopal priest named Brother Patterson. As he was teaching on the baptism of the Holy Spirit, Brother Patterson recounted an […]

Understanding the Doctrine of Baptisms.

Understanding the Doctrine of Baptisms.

Over the years, I have had the joy and privilege of witnessing many Spirit-filled ministers. In discussing with pastors whether the new birth and the baptism of the Holy Spirit are two distinct experiences, I’ve noticed that many misunderstand the term “baptism.” They believe there is only one baptism available for believers, thereby confusing the […]

The Spirit of Truth that the World Cannot Receive.

The Spirit of Truth that the World Cannot Receive.

John 14 is another passage in Scripture that tells us that baptism or the infusion of the Holy Spirit is not intended for sinners. A person must first become a new creation before being able to receive the Holy Spirit. “And I will pray the Father, and he shall give you another Comforter, that he […]

YOU CAN BE FILLED WITH JOY.

YOU CAN BE FILLED WITH JOY.

“So far you have not asked for anything in my name. Ask and you will receive, and your joy will be complete.” John 16:24 Jesus Christ said in the passage above that it is possible for you to be full of joy or to have perfect joy. In other words, He was saying that it […]

ATTRACTING MIRACLES. Tuesday, November 19.

ATTRACTING MIRACLES. Tuesday, November 19.

From time to time, in the Bible, you read stories of people who experienced “unexpected” miracles. For instance, in the Gospels, Jesus would be on His way somewhere, not intending to pray for anyone along the way, but somehow, someone would receive a miracle from Him. One of these individuals is the woman with the […]

WHEN GOD IS ON THE MOVE. Monday, November 18.

When God is on the move, He dispenses miracles along His path. As you read the Bible, you will see many instances where this occurred. For example, in Genesis 18, He was on His way to Sodom, but along the way, He stopped at Abraham’s tent to perform a miracle. Also, in Luke 7:11-15, Jesus […]

FRIENDSHIP WITH GOD. Sunday, November 17.

FRIENDSHIP WITH GOD. Sunday, November 17.

God has many children, but as all parents know, there is always one child who is a favorite. Even if they don’t like to admit it, their relationship with that child goes beyond the usual parent-child dynamic; it often extends to friendship. Similarly, God not only wants you to be His child, but He wants […]

A LIVING DEAD. Wednesday, November 13.

A LIVING DEAD. Wednesday, November 13.

“But she who lives in pleasure is dead while she lives.” 1 Timothy 5:6 Even though people who live for pleasure may seem to lead a normal life, the reality is that they are dead. This particular kind of people seek only worldly pleasures and have no self-control. In fact, they can be compared to […]
