I'm intrigued regarding the statement about the power that shows up in a service. 1. Given God's omnipresence, where is this power when it doesn't show up? In a box? In the piano stool? Where does the power reside until it shows up? 2. If it just shows up, is there anything the believer can do to hasten the power's arrival? 3. Does it require a preaching style like Kevin Wallace/TL Lowery to show up? Or, could the power show up just as frequently with a preaching style like Travis Johnson/Marty Baker? 4. Is the power showing up in direct proportion to the enunciation/groveling vocal cords of the preacher who is preaching? 5. Can the power show up more intensely if the preacher is constantly, during the course of the sermon, using such phrases as: Slap ya neighbor an tell em ya love Jesus, Give somebody a high-five an say 'the devil is a liar,' or lay hands on somebody and heal them? 6. Does the power show up easier if the preacher's microphone is set on 9.2 decibels and the sound system is beginning to experience a bit of feedback? 7. After the power shows up, then shows off, then shows out, where does it go? Is it on its way to show up at the next appointment or the next church or the next meetin?

There are a lot of questions along this line. Some of yours are actually legit, maybe all. Some have always been in my mind. The consolation of 'where 2 or 3 are gathered has always been a comfort. The teaching of scripture that no matter where I can go, he is there, do seem to be forgotten in some of the exuberance of worship. 'Come on down to the front where the Spirit is' has always made me smile.I believe the sweet Godly person, who is an introvert by nature is as close to God as he/she sits and weeps enjoying the fellowship of our God, is as close to the Spirit of God as the most 'Anointed minister'.JMHO Some facts but mostly just my [email protected]://shipslog-jack.blogspot.com/

A term that is meant as manifestation or a display of His glory.
