this way and that.

Numbers
 ²¹ But Moses said, "Here I am among six hundred thousand men on foot, and you say, 'I will give them meat to eat for a whole month!' ²² Would they have enough if flocks and herds were slaughtered for them? Would they have enough if all the fish in the sea were caught for them?"
 ²³ The LORD answered Moses, "Is the LORD's arm too short? You will now see whether or not what I say will come true for you."

Personal experiences are often used as references to what should/should not happen; what should/should not be done. It's sad but true--that we dimensionalize God that way. We believe that He should work this way, and no other. Until He throws a curveball answer to your prayer.

I've been thinking about this for some time now, thought i'd take some time to pen down my thoughts. It's tough--even the great healing evangelist Benny Hinn has been maligned for dabbling in sorcery when all he did was to cast a demon out of a woman, albeit forcefully. Just because you haven't seen a demon cast out in this way before doesn't mean it's all a hoax. In the same way, if you haven't seen the anointing and power of the Holy Spirit, it doesn't mean that He isn't real. The Holy Spirit inside of us will separate the meat from the bones. He is closer to us than we think. And He doesn't humiliate. He's pure love.

Don't dimensionalize Him. How do you limit someone who's limitless? it's mind-boggling.

William Seymour prophesied a greater awakening a 100 years from 1909. A greater awakening as compared to the Azusa Street revival. A revival with greater creative miracles and a greater outpouring of love? I can't wait. : )
