"Pastor, miracles are happening already! The place is packed and the power of God
is everywhere! People are coming out of wheelchairs and the atmosphere is charged
with God's power inside and outside! We've never seen anything like it! The Holy
Spirit is already at work, even before the service begins! God is doing something here
far beyond anything we had prayed for! There is excitement in the air, Pastor! The
service tonight is going to be awesome!"
"To God be all the glory, Charlie. We'll be there in a few minutes. See you shortly."
As I hung up the phone and thought about what Charlie had just said to me, the Lord
reminded me of the scripture, "Now to Him who is able to do exceedingly abundantly
above all that we ask or think, according to the power that works in us, to Him be
glory in the church by Christ Jesus to all generations, forever and ever. Amen" (Eph.
3:20, 21).
I whispered a prayer of thanksgiving to the Lord for His faithfulness. "Thank you,
Lord, for what you are doing. This is truly Your doing, and not mine. Lord, you're so
wonderful and I love you so much." I began to reflect on everything Charlie had said
and was filled again with awe and wonder at God's grace and mercy.
(As you read this book, dear reader, my prayer for you is that you will discover that
"It's not by might, nor by power, but by my spirit saith the Lord." If you are hungry for
the power of God, keep reading this book for in it I will share with you what I have
learned from the Holy Spirit concerning His marvelous miracle working power
available to you and me.)
Gene interrupted my thoughts and said, "We're almost there, now, Pastor. I can see
the Omni up ahead."
We drove in the back entrance to the coliseum and stopped. As the big door closed
behind us, I got out of the van and made my way to the room which had been prepared
for me. The television monitor was already on when I entered the room. I walked over
to the monitor to turn up the volume. People were applauding and shouting
everywhere! And there was a commotion in the wheelchair section! Miracles were
happening! I could see them on the monitor! And I could feel God's presence in such a
strong way right there in my dressing room. It was glorious!
My eyes were glued to the monitor. I was amazed at the power of God that was
being displayed even before the service began ... Now someone was running back and
forth across the auditorium ...
