Oh, what a Night...

Good evening, RHEMA on the Road readers,

first of all thanks for reading the blog so faithfully, so please comment on it once in a while, so we know you read it. If nothing else, do it for me... :-)
Today was another great day on the crusade trail. Ms. Lynette was teaching how important it is to have a relationship with your heavenly father and to read the bible - our instruction book. Guys don't like the read instructions and according to Ms. Lynette, Women have sometimes a hard time understanding them, which makes for interesting new-item-assembly projects.

We have fun on the road and this blog has a lot of pictures (Thanks to Julia) to show you a glimpse of our day.

For those who wonder what is up with our Tour-bus. It was repaired tonight and we are picking it up in the morning. At least it should be fixed enough to get us back to Tulsa.

Tonight's service was absolutely fantastic. Pastor continued his teaching on the Holy Ghost and gave an in-depth look on how the Holy Spirit came in and upon people through history and what privilege we as spirit-filled Christians have to have him reside within us.
At the end of the service he prayed for ministers for a fresh anointing and then he did something he has never done before: prayed for the entire congregation and the team. The anointing was so strong: we laughed, ran and shouted. It was simply great. Lots of lives were changed tonight and you could feel it in the air.

Tomorrow is the last day on this tour-stop :-( but we are happy to go back home.

We are sending our love to all of you RHEMA people out there.

Good night,

David (for the entire team)

P.S.: Another first for Pastor - he sang a sample of :Oh, what a savior..." It was great... you had to be there.

Preaching a hot hell....

Hello everyone,
you might wonder about the title of this blog-entry. Could it be inspired by the current heat-weave we find ourselves in right now here in the Northeast? Or is it taken from Pastor's fiery message tonight? The later is the case, although the other one applies :-)
The day started good as always we Ms. Lynette admonishing the congregation to step it up in their prayer lives. As a team we always enjoy these services, since we always seem to take away something new.
Pastor "rocked the house" again tonight by preaching/teaching on the subject of pentecost (like he has done quite a bit recently). It is such an important issue to make sure that every generation hears this important message about giving the Holy Ghost the room he deserves in our lives and that speaking in tongues is the manifestation of being filled with the Holy Ghost. It was great to see Pastor laying on hands on a bunch of people to receive the infilling of the Holy Spirit and all of them started speaking right away.
The church here is very nice and the people are great. We want to shoot out a thank you to the staff here for taking so good care of us.

Tomorrow - another (hot) day and more to share.

God bless,

David
P.S.: by the way, the title refers to Pastor saying that we need to preach a hot hell to people to "scare the hell out of them" :-)
Thought that was pretty good.

Creating your World...

The Virginia crusade got off to a great start tonight. Pastor Hagin spoke about "creating the World you want to live in" and admonished the congregation to put words behind their faith and speak things into existence. Right now a lot of us experience severe weather. In Oklahoma we had our fair share of Tornados, etc. (and I wonder if the current heat-wave up here in VA would count as severe ;-) )...so it is important to understand our authority that we have and speak against the storm. We have authority over our properties and we need to take our stand.

The worship team did a very good job tonight and people really got into it. At the introduction of the team, the line-up of the singers looked more like a Wedding party at the ceremony :-). We thought that was pretty funny.

Looking forward to tomorrow. I am sure Mrs. Hagin will have a powerful teaching session on prayer again. And we will hopefully get the bus air-condition fixed as well...it's supposed to be a 100 F.

Now we are all back at the hotel and it's time to relax...that is if you get in the room. Part of team got stuck in the elevator. I think the food the church gave us tonight was too good :-)

Good night from the Blue Ridge Mountains.

Hello from hot Virginia!

Hello RHEMA fans and followers around the world,

the crusade team is out again...this time in Staunton, Virginia. It is VERY HOT here currently. 100 degrees is very warm for this area. We just got done with setup. The rest of the crew (plane) will arrive here in about an hour.
The trip so far was good, except that the air-condition units on the bus were not working properly... which made the ride a bit uncomfortable at times.
I will post some pictures later tonight. Pray that the service tonight will be powerful and that the Hagins have a lot of strength.

Later,

David
