Walking in the Power of the Holy Spirit Articles:

In the early 1970’s shortly after we were married, Diane and I experienced the baptism in the Holy Spirit with the evidence of speaking in other tongues.  Needless to say our lives radically changed. 

There are many who say that tongues was for the early church but no longer applies today.  If we deny the truth in scripture does that make it go away so we don’t have to take responsibility.  Has Father changed His mind about how to walk in the power of His Spirit? 

As a logical Systems Analyst I will admit right up front that I do not understand logically how prayer works or how it can hold so much power. I do know, however, what scripture says and I believe scripture is true.

At this time in my life, this is a very difficult subject for me to address. My daughter, age 42, just passed away 6 months ago with stage 4 breast cancer. We stood with her and her family in faith against this attack for almost three years.

This scripture brings to light the fact that the spiritual world is real and all around us every day. We tend to think that life is all about the material world around us and we spend all our time trying to make our lives more comfortable materially.
