The wind blows as the Spirit moves. We do not know the origin of any breeze. The work of the Spirit we have to receive. (John 3:6-8; Judges 13:24-25; Acts 2:1-2)

Sermon #13160

P. Jason Moore –

Wow! Wow! Good morning. Howdy I think is what we say down there. Still learning the Texan culture. Wow, so good to see your faces. We’re honored to present you in Houston. What a great week. 

 

Haven’t we had a great week? Wow. Filled with wisdom and just encouragement and thank you for praying for us. We can feel your prayers. I mean that. Really. It’s like maybe we think what do our prayers really matter? And it really does. 

 

We’re so thankful for you, and I want to just talk for a few minutes about wisdom. I was trying to think of a good analogy. In Texas, weaponry is a big deal. It really is. I’m learning that. I think my initiation was a 40 cal pistol which I have, not with me. Thank God! So, my son and I, we go to the range from time to time and my son is a good shot. I think he might be a sniper at some point. Anyway, that’s another discussion. 

 

Anyway, I was looking at like, I was looking at these different types of bullets. Did you ever notice a bullet and just the tip of that bullet or a spear? I was with a brother in our church and he was showing me his collection of knifes. And they’re razor sharp. You could shave your skin with them. 

 

So, anyway, I was looking at that and I was thinking what an amazing piece or instrument. But then I just noticed the very tip and I thought that is the piercing agent, isn’t it? With a little bit of force. We’re not going to go into detail there. But you are the tip – I mean, we could say the wisdom of God is the tip of the spear, isn’t it? The very tip that cuts through and really penetrates the darkness. 

 

Just for a minute, I wanted to look at Matthew 10 and just this theme on the Spirit has been incredible. I can’t tell you how many times I felt like I was released in my seat like multiple times this week. I saw some online as well, and just really, really gifted speakers. And really the Spirit was speaking, amen. The Bible speaks. Isn’t that a good name? It’s a good name, isn’t it?

 

So, Matthew 10:16-20, we see an interesting story, and I want us to think about wisdom is really, I was just thinking it’s giving authority and concentration to what is true. It’s giving authority and concentration to what is true. And in our world, there’s a lot of messages, isn’t there? In the mental health world, in people’s day to day, in the preoccupation of loss, future loss, past loss, pain. Just the lie can really be an earthly wisdom as we see in James 3. 

 

But you and I, we have the Spirit that’s speaking expressly and truth that pierces the darkness. Isn’t that good? It cuts through and with great clarity. I thought that’s the word I could say this week. It’s so clear, the Gospel message. The grace of God is so clear and it cuts through performance. It cuts through anxiety. It cuts through fear. Fear. Wow, just the spirit of fear is almost palpable in our world. And it’s like the wisdom of God, when we speak grace words, kingdom words, truth, what is the demons, they totally run. Isn’t that good? 

 

Your words anointed and filled with the Spirit are literally pushing back strongholds or taking captive the strongholds of the enemy. In Houston, it is a unique mission field. We’re in a great culture there of God-fearing people. But when you get specific with truth, it’s very different. 

 

And in 10:16, I want to read these verses because it’s very clear. God says I want you to have, vs. 16. This verse has been on my mind for many months, because wise as a serpent. And in this particular case, it’s actually a positive correlation where serpents and snakes in the Bible are not typically positive. But in this particular case, God is saying I want you to be very wise. Very wise. That not everything is true, right? Philippians 4:8 tells us that think on these things and it gives a beautiful list of what is true.

 

Secularism has its own infrastructure, right? Neo-liberalism. We see the higher criticism. We see all of these ideologies that are, that promote this secular wisdom. But when you and I speak as a Spirit-filled believer, guess what? It cuts through and addresses the issue of the heart. That love is the issue. Grace is the issue. That faith is the issue. 

 

Faith has a tremendous tip of the spear and it cuts away all of the chaff. Isn’t that good? Like coming here this week, I feel like on several layers I was skinned or sliced open with the scalpel of the Word. And it’s like, here we go. I thought I was doing okay. Here we go.

 

So, I love what he goes on to say in vs. 19-20. And I hope this is not prophesy. Vs. 19-20. Isn’t that good? As Psalm 81 tells us in verse 10, that when we are Spirit-filled, we just open our mouth and guess what? The Spirit speaks. The Spirit speaks. We cannot speak from something that we haven’t first received. Isn’t that good?

 

Our church is such a miracle, and just talking with people there is a wisdom that cries out in the common place and says give authority to what is true. Give authority to what is life giving. Give authority to that thing that cuts through all that demonic or cosmic distraction. 

 

And you know what? We see people set free. We see people encouraged. We see people getting our call. We see people empowered. We see people encouraged, and it is a beautiful, beautiful demonstration of the Spirit. Amen. Isn’t that good? 

 

Maybe just for another minute. Isaiah 11:2, we see – keep going? Okay. That’s great. Okay. This could be a long message. No. No, no. It won’t be. Isaiah 11:2, Jesus had the spirit of wisdom, spirit of understanding, the spirit of counsel, the spirit of knowledge. I don’t know about you, but when I look at things naturally, it’s very easy to kind of be swayed. 

 

But when we are on our knees and we say, God, give us insight. Give us prudence. Give us an understanding of the kingdom issue. We just recently did a series on the hedge and how that everything in our life has a kingdom issue. Our family is a kingdom issue, right? Our decisions have a kingdom issue. Like our money has a kingdom issue and a kingdom tool and the furtherance of the Gospel. 

 

And when we exercise wisdom, the application of this great truth that we’ve received, what happens? The devil cannot hang around, right? He cannot hang around. And we’re a little Body there in Houston but I feel like there’s a mightiness, and when we get on our knees and we say God, give us your eyes, your ears, your feet, your words. 

 

And I’ll just close with that. We have so much power as a Spirit-filled believer. So much power. And the Goliath voice is very loud but it’s general. The Goliath voice is very intimidating but it’s a liar. And when we speak in truth, guess what happens? It cuts. It’s that little stone that hits the Goliath right in the forehead. And guess what happens? The giant, the mountain, the whatever it is that’s the obstacle falls and it’s removed. 

 

And guess what? We are so thankful. We are so thankful for the wisdom of God. And how giving authority – maybe that’s my encouragement today. Let’s give authority to the right things. The overactive mind, the stress, the tension, the anxiety that we all feel, we don’t have to be a prisoner to that. Why? We have kingdom words. We have the power of the Holy Spirit alive in us. 

 

And when we speak it by faith like you do, like we hear here and I’ll tell you we watch you often. And you’re a tremendous life-line to us in Houston. Literally. When we hear those words, it breaks the chain. It breaks the doubt. It breaks the self-doubt. It breaks all of these wrong preoccupations.

 

So, what happens? We open our mouth wide and guess what? Words come out and where did that come from? Where did that insight come from? Where did that truth come from? We can say it’s from the Lord. And that’s our prayer. Like Paul said, give us utterance in these last days. Give us utterance. 

 

You know, one of the speakers spoke about performance, and this is something in a high-achieving honor society like Texas. Texas, I could say a lot of good things. Their performance is so strong. And when you say these simple words, When you are weak, God is strong.” And they’re looking at you like, What are you talking about? Like I got to be strong and look at all my achievements. No, when we’re weak, the God of all power is strong.

 

And what a message in our family, amen. What a message in our marriages. What a message that we can say Lord give us insight on how to love the person in front of us. How to serve the enemy or not THE enemy but an enemy. I want to clarify that. How can we serve those, because wisdom is oozing from you and from our great Bible.

 

So, you’re the tip of the sphere. Let’s say that I’m the tip of the sphere because of the Word of God in me and God is doing a great work. Amen. So, pray for us. Houston. Remember us, right? How many will remember us? All right. Praise the Lord. Thank you for these words. (Prayer)

*****

Schaller –

Good morning. Praise God. That was an excellent, excellent song. There’s a little background story on that. Our founder, P. Stevens, did a Bible study in South Borough, Massachusetts years ago. And he was pastoring in Maine. But we learned in the Bible college that he started, to get in the car and drive places and preach the Gospel and we did that in New England.

 

Actually, as things grew and developed, we had in one week, every week, 121 Bible studies in different cities in New England. Isn’t that amazing? So, that’s in a Crossroads Magazine that we published. So, there’s that information.

 

But he was late night driving back to Maine, and the Spirit of God was so strong in his heart and he pulled to the side and he wrote that song. And we’ve been singing it ever since. Very simple, very pure, very beautiful. 

 

I also had a great week. Actually, P. Jason preached an excellent message just now. That was very good. Wasn’t that good? That was so good. Okay. How many want him to move back up here with his wife and son. What about it? Carson, what do you think? How many? Let’s do it one more time. What do you think? We want you back? But we want you in God’s will. Amen. 

 

All right. So, here we go with our message. Turn to John 3 and we are speaking today about the Holy Spirit. And I want you to notice here when Jesus was speaking to Nicodemus, he spoke about the Spirit as being like wind. Chapter 3:6-8, So, turn to your neighbor and say, You were born of the flesh and that’s how you live by your flesh. Shame on you! Shame on you! 

 

Okay. That which is born of the flesh is what? Flesh. And what happens to flesh? It goes back to the dust. It’s buried in the cemetery and that’s that. But when you are born of the Spirit, then you are, you are eternal. You are spirit.

 

And what is the Spirit like? Vs. 8. But with the wind, you don’t know how its moving. You don’t know really where it’s coming from. You can say it’s from the north or the south, but then actually you don’t know where it is coming from and nor do you know where it is going. 

 

Vs. 8. So is everyone that is born of the Spirit. Where did we come from? Where are we going? Well, we read in the Bible where we came from when we are born of the Spirit. Where did we come from? We came from God. We are born of God. To as many as received him, Christ, to them he gave power to become the children of God. Who are born not of the will of man nor of the will of the flesh but are born of God. We are born of God. 

 

How did it happen? I believed in Christ and the Spirit of God came into my life. And though I did not feel it nor I did not hear the sound of it. Let’s talk about that for a minute. As you know, we have this picture in our church here in Greater Grace that we say life is like a house with two floors. And we can label the two floors different words. 

 

But today let’s say we have time and we have eternity. We can say we have the flesh. We have the Spirit. We can say I have my sin and we have righteousness. We can say I have my will and then we have God’s will. And actually in Christ, because you are born of God, then you have the whole house to live in. You live in the whole house and it is spiritual. 

 

Your life is now born of God and you have the Spirit in your body. And in your 70 years on the earth, you have something that the world does not have. They don’t have the Spirit of God. They have the natural man and their life is limited.

 

Imagine if you are just born of the flesh and you live in this world and only in this dimension of life. That’s all you have. You don’t have anything beyond. But you have. You have the Spirit of God in you. Let me give an illustration. How many of you sail boats? You’re a sailor or an amateur boater. You know about wind on the water a little bit. Somebody here? I have some experience with it. I have a wind sail. I go wind surfing sometimes and I stand on a surf board with a sail on it and can go out to the water.

 

But when the wind dies, it ends. One time I was dead in the water out a ways and a guy with a jet ski came by and he said, Get a motor! And that’s like the Spirit of God. It’s not subject to my will. I want more of the Spirit or I need the wind. I need the movement of God. But there isn’t any in that case.

 

And I cannot produce it. I cannot produce the wind. A sailor cannot. When the wind ends, the whole thing ends. And that’s like life. That’s what Jesus is saying. You don’t have control over the wind. You’re not in charge. You’re submitted. You are needy. You are trusting. You are weak as we heard. You are out on the water and it’s all dead. The water is like glass. There’s no wind and you’re dead in the water. And that happens to believers and it’s not bad. It’s good.

 

Because it tests my heart. How am I going to live? What is God doing? What’s his will? We just had a great week together and we sensed the Spirit of God in the assembly. And we know that this is not the sound of a human heart and men’s words and man’s ways. But this is something beyond us. This is what draws us together. Cuz we are looking for the work of the Holy Spirit in the Body of Christ. Because the Bible says we drink the same spirit. If we are yielded to him and trusting in him and worshipping him as the source of our life, then we will receive. For Luke 11:13, he said if a man asks for bread, would God give him a stone? And so then therefore he that asks for the Holy Spirit, will he not give to us the ministry of the Holy Spirit? Yes, he does.

 

Because in our heart we are learning to yield and to trust. There are many things to say about it but go to the second part. I think I got the first point across. Did I? Yes, I did. All right. Let’s go to Daniel 13 with me. This is actually – I’m sorry. Judges 13. This is one of my favorite. I don’t want to say my favorite but I like this verse a lot. 

 

Judges 13:24-25, We have P. Samson here today I think. Do we have P. Samson? There he is from Pakistan. And I asked him, Is your wife’s name Delilah?! Thank you, pastor. Thank you. God bless you. 

 

Vs. 24-25. This is the part: “And the Spirit of the Lord began to move him at times.” The Spirit of the Lord began to move him at times. Okay. So, here’s your wind surf board and the wind starts. And you’re moving. And you know it. I want you to look at your life like that. I want you to incorporate into your life in the life of faith the work of grace and the moving of the Spirit. I want you to recognize the Spirit of God in your life. 

 

I want you to know when you are Spirit filled and under the ministry of the governance of God. I want you to know when it isn’t happening. When you, when we live in our flesh or our pain, our trouble, our discouragement, our failures, our disappointments, which are natural. And they’re not in the flesh but many times life is hard and people live in unbelief and they also live in complicated thoughts and they lose their vitality in their faith and their youthfulness, their joy, their thanksgiving, their worship, and their walk in simplicity. Okay. 

 

Let’s go to the verse again. Vs. 25. We don’t know what that means exactly, because we can read the story but Samson, he is moved. He’s unique. He has courage. He is moved to – the Philistines are there. He’s in Philistine territory but the Spirit of God is moving him. He can resist an enemy. He’s being moved in his heart. 

 

I think it has happened to many of you. You are moved to come to the church. You come to the church cuz the Spirit is moving you. You want to believe God for your future. You want God in your life, so you need the Word of God and sisters and brothers. 

 

You say, I don’t know anybody in the church. I don’t know anybody or this is a little different from what I’m used to, but the Spirit moves you and this is not the natural man. This is the Spirit of God building the Body together. Leading you to have new friends. Leading you to read your Bible. Leading you to learn about faith. Leading you to learn to share your faith with other people. You are moved by God, by the Spirit of God. Isn’t that good? It’s true. It’s true. 

 

When I thought about being a pastor, I never told anybody for years. I just had it. I wouldn’t dare talk about it to anybody but it was in my heart. It was moving me. Actually, I left college early. I quit it because it wasn’t for me at that time. It wasn’t for me. I was moved by faith. It was a hard decision but I felt this is what I had to do. I told my mother and father. My father cried. He was so disappointed about it, but I felt it was something I had to do.

 

God will move you to leave old friends or friends that will not be good for you in your life. God can move you to do that. He can move you to repent from something. Nobody knows about it. It’s a secret sin. It’s something secret in your life. You have no power over it you feel. But the Spirit does it. Cuz the Spirit gives – the Spirit is our teacher. And he will teach us. He will help you live in short a better life. You will actually live a better life. You have something that God gave you in your life. You actually have a better life. 

 

Maybe some men may be tempted to abandon their family. And that happens. A man may have a family. He comes under a lot of pressure. He feels he can’t provide. He feels he’s a failure. He just wants to give up and go away and forget about the whole thing.

 

But the Spirit moves us not to do it. He moves us to draw near to God. God, I cannot do it but could the wind blow. Could something beyond me. I don’t have the power. Could your Spirit move in my life? 

 

And he said, Go join yourself to that church. Go buy a Bible at the bookstore. Go online and listen to messages. Have a good friend that you can be with that will help you and encourage you cuz the Spirit of God is at work in this world. The Spirit of God is doing work in the lives of people and there is somebody who could stand up and say – and we heard it all week – they could say I can do this. I can do this. 

 

I think I had – Melvin, you want to just stand here for a minute. Just tell them about you just for a second. Just stand up here for a second. So, P. Melvin is from India. Can you come up? Okay. So, one of the nights at our conference, we had a night on the persecuted church. 

 

And he had told me a day before or two days before about how, without going into a lot of detail, he got beaten on the street by a mob of people, about 30 people. Thirty men were yelling at him and beating him with their fists and they beat him for about an hour. And they’re yelling at him and swearing and so on, you know. 

 

And he said, – I’m sorry I’m saying all of this. I’m not sorry, but I know you would like to explain it maybe but because of time, I can’t do that. I just want them to – okay. You may be seated. So, you know, when we were talking together and I asked him about this experience, I said how long did it take you to heal up? He said about three weeks. And then what did you think about those people? He said I pitied them because I saw they don’t know what they’re doing. There’s a lot of emotion. A lot of anger. A lot of hatred. 

 

But you know when the Spirit moved Samson, when he was moved by God, he was actually doing God’s will. Suffering can be endured when you believe you are in the will of God. Suffering, we can handle life. Because if the wind is blowing, that’s our secret. That’s what we have. That’s what makes this work. 

 

Jesus is saying, Jesus is saying, when you are born again, when you are born of the Spirit, there’ s nothing greater in the world than that your life is under the influence of that which cannot be controlled by the world. Stop it. Stop it. Stop it. That’s what they say. Like stop it. Stop evangelizing. Stop talking about Jesus. Stop it. Stop it. Stop it. 

 

But when the wind is there, when there’s something beyond me, and I don’t know where does it come from. We don’t know. We know it comes from God but what I’m saying is pastor shared it or P. Gary did in the morning that you might not know what to say in that hour, but my Father will speak in that hour. Okay.

 

Lastly, turn to Acts 2 and we have Pentecost. Chapter 2:1, We could say they had a good attitude. They were praying ten days waiting for the Holy Spirit to come as was promised by Christ. Christ went up and they went to Jerusalem waiting for the promise and it didn’t come. 

 

I mean that’s an important point. When there’s no wind on the water, you cannot produce it even if you want it. You cannot buy it or pay for it. You cannot produce anything in ourselves to make that happen, but then when it happened, it happened.

 

I love to read about those instances in history where the Spirit moved. And many of us have seen that happen, whether it is in France or Poland or Russia. We have seen it happen in Baku, Azerbaijan years ago. We have seen it in China. We have seen it happen. It’s a real thing. And it’s beautiful. People get excited about Jesus. 

 

Cuz the Holy Spirit reveals Christ. That’s why our conferences are Christ centered. Cuz the Holy Spirit says it’s about him. What he did for us. How he rose from the dead. How he ascended into heaven. How we have this Spirit in our life and we walk in him my faith. 

 

So, what happened here? Vs. 2. There’s the wind. Again, we read about wind. Rushing, mighty wind. It’s the wind and you can’t stop it. It’s the wind. It’s the moving of the Spirit. You know, we can quench the Spirit, 1 Thessalonians 5. We can grieve the Spirit, Ephesians 4. We can insult the Spirit, Hebrews 10:29. Yes, but we can also walk in the Spirit and learn about praise, about faith, about hearing, about meditation. 

 

One of the highlights for me in this ministry through the years was to learn to listen. To focus. What is the Spirit saying? What is the Spirit saying through the Word? P. Jason said the tip of the sphere is the Word of God. And it can penetrate anything. And it’s simple.

 

Last night, we preached about simplicity and we described it this way. God says Abram, Abram. And Abraham says, here I am. And that’s the end. Period. Here I am. It’s simple. I don’t have anything more to say, only that I am here and you are God and I am here before you. 

 

Noah, Noah. Here I am. Here I am. Samuel, Samuel. Here I am. But then when he said, Adam. Adam. Where are you? Why is it, why is it complicated with Adam? How come Adam can’t be found? How come Adam is afraid? How come Adam is saying the woman you gave me, that’s the problem. The woman you gave me. You are the problem. Why is it like that?

 

Because it’s not the Holy Spirit. The complicated life of man, of Adam, endless commentary. Endless explanations. Endless talking. Endless work going on. But simplicity is from the Holy Spirit and it’s in one word: Love. Love. Here I am. You love me. I love you. That’s it. 

 

I remember reading about Billy Graham when he got older and his wife, too. And I was fascinated because he was such a great man of God. It says in the biography I was reading that his wife was bedridden. She had a back injury. She’s in her 90’s, late 90’s I think, 96 or something. He’s also that old and he would just sit bedside with her. And they would just look at each other. They just had each other. There wasn’t much talking. You know, when you’re 96 maybe you don’t have a lot to say anymore. 

 

But I think it’s more than that. It’s like relationship with God is like this. I don’t have a lot to say to you, but you talk all day to me and I will listen. With the attitude to embrace it, put I around my neck, write it on my heart, put it on the back of my hand, put it on my forehead. I am hearing you. I am living in faith. That’s hard when we are suffering. That’s hard. 

 

But I think P. Melvin has done that and many other of our brothers and sisters in the world through history have learned that our heavenly Father has given us the Spirit and the Spirit is the spirit of love and joy and peace and I can just say simplicity. And Paul warned the church at Corinth. I fear that you would be deceived or beguiled by the devil and your mind corrupted and be taken away from the simplicity that is in Christ. The mind just troubled by life.

 

When your life is troubled by life itself, be sure to recognize that there’s another teacher. There’s a message. There’s a ministry. And I need the ministry. I need that quietness. Someone that was here this week said to me, I just like going to the meeting early and sitting in the room and just be quiet, because I sense the presence of God in the room before people spoke or sang. I was just in the presence of God in the room. 

 

And I love this about our new life. It’s like stepping into the shower. You’re going to get wet all over and there is a ministry that happens to you when you are hurt, when you are needy, and in whatever condition you are in there is a ministry of the Spirit to us because he is the Comforter and the Teacher. 

 

I have one more and it is we have the ministry of the Spirit in conflict. We have the ministry of the Spirit when we are rebuked at the end of Titus 2. Rebuke. Can you be rebuked? Can you be corrected without being offended? Can we be corrected without being offended? Could the Spirit say something to me and I would be corrected and I would be able to receive it and benefit from it? We can benefit from what God has to say to us.

 

And then lastly, there are times when nobody is there, 2 Timothy 4. I’ll finish with this one. 2 Timothy 4:16-17. This is Paul at the end of his life being judged by the Caesar Nero in Rome and it’s the end of his life. He’s going to be executed. And he has an opportunity in that courtroom, in that trial that he had to give an answer. 

 

And there were people in the room that could have joined with Paul but he’s saying when I was there and I gave an answer, I presented myself. He was very capable of doing it. We read it in the book of Acts. He did it at least three times with Festus, with Felix and with Agrippa. And now he is before Caesar or his tribunal. And it says there at my first answer, no man stood with me but all men forsook me. 

 

I wonder who these men were that were in the room that could have been with Paul? I wonder were they secret believers? I wonder who they were. Was there anyone that was a friend that traveled with him or been with him and then the intimidating atmosphere of the room. The intimidating nature of the circumstance. And I have to keep my mouth shut or I might find myself being executed, too. 

 

And Paul is saying, I’m saying it, that was a disappointment to me that no man stood with me. And that hurts. Especially when it’s somebody you love and you are one with. Like your wife forsakes you or your son your daughter or your pastor or close friend or colleague. And nobody stood with me. 

 

But here it is. The wind. The wind is there. The Spirit is in the room. The Spirit is with Paul and he says here but all men forsook me. I pray God that it may not be laid to their charge. Notwithstanding, the Lord stood with me and strengthened me. I want you to think this is a dramatic story. I want you to think in every day terms, I want you to think in every day terms that the Lord is with you and he strengthens you.

 

I want you to think if you are in a hospital room, the Lord stands with me and he strengthens me. I want you to know that God sent the Holy Spirit into our life that we could live this life not on our own, but we could live this life with God blowing the breeze. Blowing the air, the wind. That he would minister to us quietly. Maybe very little it seems. Very little but he is there in raising a family, at your job, with your friends. And you know that what you learn in this church is something that will go in your heart or is going in your heart and when you go to work, it’s going to come out of you. 

 

You’re going to talk to your secretary or the guy digging ditches with you or in the truck, the pickup truck or hammering nails or screwing screws or building something or engineering or something. This comes out. 

 

In my neighborhood, outside over the back fence. Talking about your neighbor’s dog, and then you start to share, you know. I believe in God and he is real. And he is in life and we need him. We need him. We do. And we have him. And it’s in the little things. The bad things that happen, the difficult things that happen, the great beautiful manifestations of the wind in life. We don’t have power over that wind, but we have our heavenly Father and he hears our prayer.

 

Lastly, a month before this conference, we had 8:00 in the morning on the patio people praying every day at 8:00 in the morning like P. Staples and Suzanne. P. Gary mentioned that this morning. And I would join sometimes. A month of prayer on the patio in the morning at 8:00. Beautiful. And we just finished here and we could say God answered prayer. The wind is blowing. 

 

How about in our country? The 250th birthday party. The anniversary of the birth of our nation. You know what we need? The wind to blow and the Spirit to move. And bring people to the beach in Florida for baptism and California, Huntington Beach, and Pirates Cove and a place anywhere. For the Spirit to move on college campuses. For the Spirit to move in our hearts. 

 

And the Spirit to help us not only start our Christian life but to continue it and one day finish it and we’re going to say it happened. I can’t say I did it. I can say the wind did it. I don’t know how it works. I don’t know where it came from or where it was doing. But I could definitely feel it on my face, metaphorically speaking. I felt it in my life and I kept my friends. 

 

I kept them for 50 years. Cuz they kept themselves and we kept our families and we did what we could. It’s not always perfect. Actually, that’s the point. Sometimes, it doesn’t look so good but he’s here with us and he’ll never fail us. Amen. Would you pray with me, please?
