Wednesday night we had some spiritual warfare. Perhaps it was because our regular leaders were not there. The a/c was out. It was really hot. Rick and I sweat a lot. I think we both lost five pounds. I was tempted to run out of the room. I can, the inmates cannot.
Our TV - DVD setup could not be found. Something about they couldn't find the key. They didn't know where it was. We got conflicting excuses. So we worshiped while we waited.
Then God spoke to Rick. He said this the last song and then Rob will speak. I don't think anyone really paid attention. After the song he said. "No I'm serious, it's time for Rob to speak."
Rob had an inspired message. He spoke of Jackie Pullinger and speaking in tongues as an exercise in breaking strongholds. It was inspired.
As Rob was finishing the TV-DVD cart showed up. We got to listen to the seventh lesson of Alpha's Life Worth Living Course. Unfortunately we did not get to do small groups because we started so late. Rob's lesson substituted for small group time.
Some of the guys missed it. They insisted on writing letters during worship. We asked them to stop. Some did but they continued to have their minds far away. They were not open to receiving the great thing that God had for us all.
