Hey John,
I sure have enjoyed listening to the Pioneer Broadcast on “Spiritual Power” on Youtube. We seem to think the power of God is something we can see, like dancing, shouting, speaking in tongues, healing and etc. And it is, but it goes deeper than that. You said in that sermon that we are going to be under one power or another. Even if we want to do good and can’t, it’s because some spirit has come in and taken over the heart. It’s the lack of the power of God in our lives. We can do nothing without the power of the holy Ghost.
This made me think of the time the power of God touched me and I could do nothing, not even move. It was the night the Spirit was falling on the children on the porch. The power of God knocked me to the ground, and I could do nothing. It started to rain, and two saints helped me get up, and all I could say through tears streaming down my face was, “It’s in the power, it’s in the power.” As they helped me into the house I could hardly walk, and then the Spirit spoke to me and said, “You are as useless as those toys on the shelf without me.” Meaning I could do not one thing without the power of God to move me. I couldn’t walk, talk or move even if I wanted to.
I don’t even think I really knew what the Spirit was saying at the time like I do now. “It’s in the power.” We really can’t do anything without the power of God to lead us, no matter how much we want to. And as you said, we are going to be controlled by one spirit or another. Please Lord, let it be the holy Ghost!! That’s the Power of God!!!!!
