Fellowship Hall

First thing I'd like to do is apologize for the last weeks article.  Not the contents, but the confusing mistakes.  My eyes were bothering me and I missed the mistakes.  We, the church, as a whole, have grown indifferent and cold.  We see a little spiritual fire here and there.  We see a few miracles, and souls being saved and filled with the Holy Spirit.  But not as we should.  In Joel 2:28,29 It says In the last day's I will pour out my Spirit upon all flesh.  Your son's and your daughters shall prophesy; Your old men shall dream dreams, and your young men shall see visions; and upon the servants and hand maidens will I pour out my Spirit.  We are not where we need to be, in the Lord.  When I was a child it was common to see miracles and souls running down to the altars.  Why?  Is it different now?  Yes, There are two things that have changed.  People have quit praying like they did.  They have gotten too busy to pray and study God's word.  For one thing they are listening to the say it and you can have anything.  They forget about telling them that we need to do the word of God, obedience, 3 John 2, It's not everyone that crieth Lord, Lord, shall enter in; but he  that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven Matthew 7:21.  Hosea 4:6 My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge: because thou hast rejected knowledge, I will also reject thee, that thou shalt no priest to me; seeing thou hast forgotten the laws of thy God, I will also forget thy children.  What  knowledge? Surely not of this world.  I saw a bible study page that was talking about this; it said that we should gain knowledge of the enemies we face.  I had a problem with this, because if we are studying the word and praying in the Holy Ghost, he well lead and guide us and battle's will be won.  Of course we must do it in faith, that is a given.  I don't want the Lord to by pass me.  I want to be right in the middle of the last revival, on fire, Holy Ghost fire, that is; teaching and preaching in the anointing of God's Spirit.  Seeing God do what He does so well.  Seeing souls saved, filled with the Holy Spirit, on fire  for the Lord.  I want to be like Aaron, give me my mountain, I am able to posses it.  This mountain is not a physical one, but, a spiritual one.  2 Chronicles 7:14 says if my people which are called by my name, shall humble themselves and pray, and turn from their evil ways ; then will hear from heaven and heal their land.  Our land, country, needs a spiritual awakening, and our land needs healing because of all the pollution.  Do we want the Lord to say, 'sorry I never knew you'.  or just barely make it in, 1Corinthians 5:5, says that God will give your body over to satan, that the soul might be saved.  Hard Preaching? Yes, but what will it take to get us ready for the rapture? I'd rather hear about hell than go there.
