God,
Thank you for giving me another day, another chance. I know I couldn’t have made it without You. You have brought me through and each time it’s strengthen my faith in You. May I let go of worry of the unknown & fully trust You through it all. In Jesus Name, Amen
If you don’t know God and His character, get in the Word and find out. Social media can be a great resource for sharing and finding encouragement, but it is not a replacement for the Bible!
This is the kind of thing that makes no sense about Asbury. Why did these men have to drive 9 hours to Asbury to pray 30 minutes? They spent 18x as much time driving as they did praying. And what led them to believe the Holy Spirit is there at "the altar" at Asbury in a more tangible/real/special way than He is where they began their 9 hour drive? Is He not omnipresent?
Are their prayers more effective at Asbury than at their homes? Is God closer to Asbury? Is there a celestial portal that has opened up over Wilmore, KY that is not open over, say, Walla Walla Washington? And how long will this portal stay open?
And why have thousands from all over the world flocked to a place in Kentucky to catch "the anointing" or "the fire" so they can then carry it back to their respective homes?
That's not how this works. That's not how any of this works.
I have no doubt these men are sincere and I do not disparage their motives, but this kind of thinking is much more at home with pagan religions, Islam (think Mecca), Word-Faith/N.A.R. and Roman Catholicism than biblical Christianity. This is the bad theology and practice that comes from bad/weak teaching.
