Over powering message: Get ready to stand up!

(S2) Every day with Jesus series Taken from my Facebook page

Holy Spirit urges me
"Get ready to stand"
Today being "Whitsunday" one may be tempted to ask the question "Does the Spirit of Almighty God speak to us in 2019"?

We are talking of the Spirit of the God of the Bible, the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, the Holy Spirit, whom Jesus referred to as our Advocate, our Comforter, our helper. John 14:26 But the Advocate, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in My name, will teach you all things and will remind you of everything I have told you.

Charles Spurgeon once said, "Without the Spirit of God, we can do nothing. We are as ships without the wind, branches without sap, and like coals without fire, we are useless."

Adding to the series "Every day with Jesus" part 2, (prayerfully written in the public domain so as to awaken humanity to the Kingdom of the living God) here is but one of many incidences personally encountered, with my wife Celeste bearing witness on this occasion as it occurred.
Around 1990 we had been invited to Hillcrest Christian Fellowship by Judy Carney a nursing friend of Celeste's. Here is the short version of what transpired in 1994. We were sitting in our usual "anointed 🙂" left rear seating area, in the old mushroom farm building, listening to Peter Rasmussen preaching. While Peter is preaching l suddenly get heart palpitations and an overpowering message in my head.. not a voice, but a very very strong thought " GET READY TO STAND, PETER IS GOING TO CALL YOU" !! Peter will recall the kairos moment well l am sure. So now I am edgy so I whisper to my wife " l think Peter is going to make me stand" Pastor Peter Rassmussen continues with his message and the next minute just stops in his tracks and beams out loud over the PA system
"Gavin Stone where are you ?" He then said, " Stand up" I shot up, blushing pink like a Cherry blossom in full bloom.

To have experienced this blew my paradigm, it shattered me, it reinforced my solid belief in the fact that the God of the Bible, our closest friend, IS ALIVE AND REAL TODAY in our time. Peter then spoke words of encouragement over me regarding my teaching at George Campbell Technical High school in Durban. He encouraged me in front of around 500 people, to keep doing what I was doing, God is going to use it all for HIS GLORY. Peter then said l could sit down and he got back to his notes and continued his message. This was a most amazing Kairos moment for Celeste and I. When I look back at the approximate 7 years in the classroom, the fruit is very much evident. I had the sheer honor of sharing the classroom with future leaders, planet shakers, history makers, most of whom are my friends/extended family to this very day.

So my challenge to Lukewarm believers and unbelievers alike, God is real, SEEK HIM, Run to him, not from him. Read John 3:16... For God so loved the world that he gave his ONLY son, that whosoever believeth shall not perish, but will have everlasting life.. Enjoy today, 9 June 2019, DAY OF PENTECOST, ( Whitday) stay tuned... There is LOADS OF EVIDENCE to follow in the series "Every day with Jesus"
🙏🏻❤️

SURPRISE INCREASE

God is faithful So here is the short version of what happened Please note upfront: These stories are shared not to impress anyone, but rather to impress upon every one that Almighty God is alive and well One Sunday evening I was watching a Joyce Meyer message. I t was all about her mission work and the one orphanage here in Southern Africa. I felt led in my spirit man to set up a 1 year stop order of R200pm into that orphanage.  I jumped online and did exactly that.  The next day, Monday morning, my immediate manager walks into my office and sits down. He says hey Gav, I have noticed you are always available for call outs etc. I am increasing your salary by R2000 pm How great is our God (Please consider keeping this Blog active during these cataclysmic times of mudslides, family deaths, multiple spiritual attacks, and major loss of income.   paypal.me/gavinstone8  OR Nedbank, cheque, 1192643046, bcode 198765  sincerely appreciated)

HEALED after being paralyzed from the waist down

 Here is what happened: During my National Service days I was involved in a bad car accident when a vehicle smashed into the back of my car at a robot in Durban. I was  stationary and the driver of the other car, apparently high on cocaine, did not see me and hit me at a good 80km per hour. As a result of that  accident, and other small incidents, I ended up having two major spine ops. I spent the best part of 5 months at a local Hospital.  During this time I picked up Meningitis and nearly died So there I am, 21 yrs old, enjoying life, getting focused, ready for a career in Engineering and then suddenly all this.  My wife of today was my high school sweetheart back then. Lying there in that hospital bed, no feeling or use of my legs I encouraged her to leave  me and find someone else. She would have no part in this and stuck in with me during the worst time of my life. She lived the horror story with me,  never leaving me for one moment. That was a ...

"SIR ! I had a dream Kairos is the name"

Duplicate post, but we'll worth the read of what the Spirit of God is doing 😀👍🏽 During my previous 8-year teaching stint at a local high school a bunch of naturally musically talented students started a band. I occupied a large classroom at the very far end of the school property. Matthew, Gareth, Dylan, Wesley to name a few from memory. Long story short, they jammed very very well together making their own songs etc. The call for a name for the band came and we all had to think about it. Being Christ focused we prayed. A few days later l was at a Sunday night preach at the mushroom 🍄 farm, aka Hillcrest Christian fellowship, aka Cityhill 😀 A guest speaker, Greg Haswell spoke on "Kairos times", special moments in time with God. It was revelation knowledge on steroids for me...  I felt very very strongly in my heart that the band's name is to be "Kairos" .  Come Monday morning back at school Wesley rushes into the classroom and says ,"sir sir l had ...
