Inspiration: In the Old Testament, Joseph was a good example of this scripture. He was sold by his brothers as a slave to Egypt. He was falsely accused and ended up in jail for over two years. However, after he interpreted Pharaoh’s dream, he became second in command of all of Egypt. It was God’s plan to send him ahead and prepare for a great famine. By God’s gift of the interpretation of dreams, the people were rescued from seven years of famine, including his family.

Inspiration: One Bible teacher explained the definition of meekness. Today’s society interprets meekness as weakness, but this teacher said meekness is power in perfect control.

Inspiration: One church leader from Africa got a vision for his church to feed the poor. He filled a truck full of food and gave it to the orphan children begging along the road. At first, all the hungry children tried to climb onto the truck, but after they saw more food coming, they were more orderly in receiving the food. God has richly blessed this leader and given him funds to construct a new church facility to bless the whole community.

Inspiration: All of us are at different levels of Christian maturity. In the Book of Acts, the disciples were ready to give their lives for Jesus. Even today, missionaries are martyred for their faith. Others, living in rich countries find it hard to love other people and to believe in miracles. When I visited a poor country I saw people with great faith in Jesus. A girl had a knee twice the normal size. She came(limping) for prayer believing for a miracle. Right before our eyes Jesus shrunk the swelling and she walked away perfectly well. Jesus wants His love and faith taken to all nations, to all ages, to all races and to all colors.

Inspiration: When someone told me about the baptism of the Holy Spirit, I was afraid of it and therefore avoided asking for it. But I was finally convinced by the scriptures that it was the will of God for all to have it. I took courage and asked for this baptism at the end of a service when the leaders were laying hands on people in prayer. I received it that night and was given a new heavenly prayer language. This gift has been such a blessing to increase my faith as this scripture says. It is so powerful not only because it is God’s gift, but because it increases our faith and makes our faith holy and helps to remove selfishness.

Inspiration: I was raised in a church that did not raise their hands during a worship service. When I went to a service where people worshipped God by lifting up their hands, I knew this was genuine worship but I had so much pride and self dignity I was afraid to lift my hands. I was challenged by the preacher to worship God in a way that would be pleasing to Him. It was then that I saw myself as a three year old stretching up my hands to God for a hug.

Inspiration: I met a man who was a helicopter pilot in the Vietnam War. He told me that as he was landing his helicopter in Vietnam and letting his men out, almost all of them were immediately gunned down. This man has blamed himself for the lives of these men and has been an alcoholic ever since. When I prayed with him and told him that Jesus loved him and forgave him he began to cry and recommitted his life to Christ. He is now free from the condemnation of this past war tragedy.

Inspiration: Many people have turned away from God so they can establish their own lifestyles and their own righteousness, and have found this results in emptiness.

Inspiration: One Bible teacher challenged us to visit hospitals, to visit the sick, to read the Bible to the elderly in nursing homes, to visit prisoners in jail and to feed and clothe the poor. I had never visited prisons before so I was nervous about it at first. However I asked God for courage and went along with people who had done it before. After sharing the gospel with those in prison, I saw them as redeemed children of God. Later we went to a nursing home where we read the Bible which brought life to those elderly faces. In doing these things my eyes were opened to a hurting world as I saw how selfish I was in my own little world.
