That I may publish with the voice of thanksgiving... Psalm 26:7 Vol. 15, No. 2 February 2006 Here we are in another year, going along like usual. But in the Spirit realm things are progressing. I am astounded, to say the least, that so many are not finding what is being released from the supernatural. I grieve and grieve over the losses in people’s lives that make them seem to be impoverished. We are to grow stronger and stronger in the Lord, especially in this day of darkness when the Church is supposed to be growing into the image of Christ. Without this transformation, we are just zombies existing. My God paid the ultimate sacrifice so I could live in the fullness of time and become all I have been called to be in Christ. God is so perfect in His ways, He is literally rejoicing over those who are pressing into Him. Occasionally, when I find someone in whom the Spirit of Christ is operating, there is such a stirring within me. But it hurts when so many can’t find the Spirit. Why not? Because the enemy is wearing out the saints with the trivial mundane life of rich America. I recently read that most pastors believe their congregations are doing pretty well. But when the parishioners were asked, their response was quite the opposite. How can we not know the state of our flocks. There are desperate people going through desperate situations. We must have answers if we want to see these overcome and be victorious in Christ and over this darkness. John the Apostle exhorts us in 3 John 1:2 “Beloved, I wish above all things that thou mayest prosper and be in health, even as thy soul prospereth.” I think we are weak today because we are not taking proper care of our souls. Press into Him. In Christ,
