Thank God...

...for another wonderful Sunday! We had twenty this morning and twenty-one tonight. The services both had a great presence of God.
Tonight we had two young girls to get saved, one about 10 and the other about twelve. It was kind of interesting how it all got started. Brother Terry, one of our local ministers, had been preaching for juts a little bit when a sister who has been very sick this week had to leave the sanctuary because of a pretty major coughing spell and some sharp pains she had in her side. A few minutes later, her daughter came back into the room and whispered to me that we needed to pray for her mother right then. I motioned to Brother Terry and told him what was going on, so he didn't miss a beat, but got the oil bottle and we brought her up for prayer. We prayed for a little bit, then started again, and then she began to feel the power of the Holy Ghost, Her countenance changed and she began worshipping the Lord! Soon two of her daughters were embracing her, all three weeping and praising God. It was wonderful...As we all prayed and felt the Lord's presence, a group of young girls had gathered around the piano, and were helping the piano player sing some songs. I noticed two of them starting to cry. I knew immediately that it was conviction. Brother Terry and some others sprung into action while others of us kept on singing and praising God. They bothe were saved and a third, who was already saved, sanctified, and Holy Ghost filled got such a wonderful blessing that she shouted all around the church house under the power of God. Tonight was such a blessing. God has really been moving in our services. I believe that He is preparing us for a great Revival move very soon! The Revival Spirit has already begun to settle amongst us, and seems to get stronger every time we meet.
I am so thankful!
God bless you all...
Brother Donnie
By the way, please pray for my wife, she has been having more serious trouble with her migraines lately, and one seems to be starting up tonight. She needs a healing...

Let me add a prayer request for anyone who sees this. A young woman who was at church tonight just called and asked for urgent prayer for her daughter.
Thanks...

Praying here.

Praise God for His Spirit and His convicting power! And PRAISE GOD for His HEALING power! "And said, If thou wilt diligently hearken to the voice of the LORD thy God, and wilt do that which is right in his sight, and wilt give ear to his commandments, and keep all his statutes, I will put none of these diseases upon thee, which I have brought upon the Egyptians: for I AM THE LORD THAT HEALETH THEE" (Ex. 15:26).
