Holy Spirit Come and Fill this Place


Hey there guys, it's me again!!I just wanted to tell you about my Sabbath yesterday and my day today because i can tell you without hesitation that i was truly blessed! Yesterday, Jenin preached at the Agape Seventh Day Adventist church and i did not favour the sermon because my cousin was the one preaaching. I enjoyed the sermon because i thought truly that God was working through her to bring a message to the congregation. She preached about the fact that Satan is trying his best to take control of us to follow him and keep us out of Heaven! She gave stories about a man named Morneau who suggested that the Devil is making it his business to trap Seventh Day Adventists so that our work for God would be inhibited.She told the church a story about this particular group of people who thought they were seeing angels of God and as a result, the angels told them to leave the church and they did and the angels went as far as convincing them that they had to rid the world of certain people who were demon possessed! That is what the people believed and truly they thought that God's angels were the ones guiding them, so they had no problems with committing murder because it was commanded by "god's angels"! But really. what was happening is that Satan's Angels were impersonating themselves as angels of light and as a result those people got caught up! However, the Bible declares that if we are grounded and we remain grounded in the word of the Lord, we will be able to recognize these impersonators and shun them in the name of Jesus and with the word of God.

Satan is trying hard each day to take control of our lives and as a result prevent us from praising, worshipping and witnessing as we are supposed to.Yesterday, during Jenin's sermon, i tell you that i could seriously feel the presence of God. God did not only work through Jenin with her sermon but also in song and seriously when she sang "holy spirit come and feel this place" God was no doubt in the Agape Seventh Day Adventist church. That was not the end of such a movimg sermon, she called on the church to come forward for prayer and she asked all of the elders to come on the pulpit! Elder Tyrone James prayed for the youth of the church, then Elder Mervin Mark prayed for the children and Elder Magdalene prayed and I tell you, that was the moment where every heart in the church was touched. My cousins cried (Norsika and Brad) and my heart melted. Sis Magdalene prayed for the church and she called upon the Holy Spirit and she begged him to forgive us, she begged him to come upon us, she begged him for everything possible and i can truly say that the holy spirit came upon each heart and softened even the hardest of hearts. Yesterday, was no doubt, a glorious sabbath day and I am so very pleased that I am a Seventh Day Christian and that God has called each and every one of us to work for Him in some way or another!

Now after i was soo sincerely blessed yesterday, Elder Matthew and a group of youth(Norsika, Shervane, Cordia, Ryan, Brad, Diane and I) went out to work in a small community in Blanchard called "Tee Too" where we prayed with everyone who desired prayer and gave tracts to them also and seriously that was a blessing! We had fun in the holy spirit! We gave out tracts to any and everybody and we prayed with the people who asked for prayer! There was this instant, where Norsika (my cousin and I), left our group and we went lower down to two elderly people's homes and i tell you, i was definitely blessed! The second lady that we prayed with cried whilst i was praying for her and she was sooo moved that after the prayer, she couldnt stop thanking us! She even offered us mangoes, in order to thank us some more! I can tell you that it is no doubt very important to work for God because you feel a joy greater than any joy possible!!

So i urge you to read your bibles and work for God as best you can because that is all we can do in this life!Nothing in this life is worth more than serving , praising, worshipping, and witnessing for God! We should never forget that! At some point, no matter where we are, we should just be able to say "Holy Spirit come and fill this place" and then we will see God move mountains in our lives! Give God all the praise, nothing in this life is greater than Him! We will be going around to pray for people in different communities every Sunday, so i urge you to do the same thing in your community! Share the love of our great God, who sent His son upon the cross to die for our wretched sins!!!!!

Thank you for the listening ear guys!! I will talk to you soon! Adios!!!!!
