#Real, #Truth,#Time

With interest, I have listening to teachings on how to 'tap in' to the power of God.  I listened because the ones bringing the word professed to be Saints of God.  When I hear Saints of God,  my heart identifies with what the Bible says.  A Saint of God has repented of sin, been baptized in the Name of Jesus for the remission of those sins, and filled with the Holy Ghost evidenced by speaking in other tongues as the Spirit give utterance.  So I listened.

In listening there was something I did not hear.  I did not hear the Teacher mention the Holy Ghost one time, not one time as being the one that has the power and gives the power.  How can a person 'tap into' the power of God?  The Bible says 'but ye shall receive power,  after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall be witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judaea, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth."  Acts 1"

So, how in the  Name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth can a person 'tap into' the Holy Ghost?  The power of God?

The teacher went on for a while explaining things, explaining things to do so one can tap in.

I praise the Lord for the Holy Ghost.  I praise the Lord for the Holy Bible.  Man continues to come with all these ways to 'have God in your life'.  There is only one way to get the Lord in your life.  "Marvel not, you must be born again."

The Saints of God have to watch what you listen to.  False teaching can slip in behind the 'praise break'.  False teaching/preaching can slip in behind the 'dance'.  Be not deceived.

Matthew 24:24 "For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall shew great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall deceive the very elect".

They call me old fashion.  They tell me there is a new way to do things because it is a different time.  They tell me I'm old school.

One Lord.  One Faith.  One Baptism.  Jesus said He is the way, the truth and the life.  Be not deceived, God is not mocked.  "And they continued stedfastly in the apostles doctrine and fellowship, and in breaking of bread, and in prayers".  Acts 2:42

Time for Church.

#Run the Race Right,#Win,

Many start, but do not finish. Many once ran well, but now have allowed that which is contrary to scripture to run their lives. The scriptures bear this out in Galatians chapter three. "O foolish Galatians, who hath bewitched you, that ye should not obey the truth, " Galatians 3:1 "Are ye so foolish? having begun in the Spirit, are ye n ow made perfect by the flesh?" Galatians 3:3 The Lord is calling the roll. Are you ready? Revelations 16:15  "Behold, I come as a thief.  Blessed is he that watcheth, and keepeth his garments, lest he walk naked, and they see his shame." steadfastapostolic.com

#Call Jesus,#Cry out,#Jesus, Deliverer

If you call Jesus right, he will hear you and come see about you.  Ask blind Bartimaeus. The scriptures says in St. Mark 10:46-52 that Jesus, His disciples and a great number of people were leaving Jericho.  Blind Bartimaeus heard that Jesus of Nazareth was passing by.  Blind Bartimaeus could not see.  He did not know what Jesus looked like.  He only knew what he heard. Blind Bartimaeus began to cry out to Jesus, "Jesus, thou son of David have mercy on me".  When the people tried to stop him, he cried out the more so, "Thou son of David, have mercy on me".  He did no let people keep him from calling on the Lord.  He must have heard about the miracles, healing, deliverance that took place at the hand of the Lord. Jesus heard the cry of Blind Bartimaeus.  It was the sound of the cry that revealed to the Lord that Blind Bartimaeus was calling out in a blind state, but yet believing something would happen if he could get the attention of Je...

#A Lot of Singing,#Shouting,#Tongue Talking,#Playing

Music was one of the things that drew me to want to go to Church when I was not saved.   I use to love to hear and 'feel' the spirit of the songs.  Back then, the singers would sing unto the Lord.  They were not paid to sing.  They were not seeking recording contracts.  They would sing unto the Lord.  The would sing about the Lord.  So, when one went to hear the singers, your soul got touched whether you wanted it to or not. I can remember going to the Holiness Churches.  The praise was different too.  When the Saints praised God back then, it was real.  When the Saints did dance 'in the Spirit', it was real.  You could feel it.  There was always this 'presence' in the Holiness Church that I could not explain....then.  But that presence kind of held you captive, whether you wanted it o or not.  And, sometimes Church would go on for hours, but no one cared.  And, if one of the Saints said something to you that t...
