I am waiting for the day when the saints will come in God's House shouting. Not so much for what He's done, But who He is and what he is about to do. I fell sorry for this generation, you have never seen the RAW power of God, never experienced the Holy Spirit conduct an alter call, or a worship service. (sometimes I miss HOPDC !)  God showed Himself by Himself and I pray your generation will experience what you don't believe could happen!! But It did! He Is the Word. What preacher, me included can out preach or minister better than THE WORD.

I don't mean to sound angry, just frustrated. We have lost so much spiritually. If I told you I saw, with my own eyes, the Holy Spirit fill a cavity in some one's teeth, or raised some one from the dead, what would you say? That time has passed.
I know, many have abused their gifts and manipulated people, but their are true gifts in the body today.
I believe that what were about to see is the manifestation of God's power through true believers.
Un-scripted, un-programed, un rehershed. It's already happening but were so used to being entertained, we have lost our desire for the authentic. The music you listen to, it's not new, it's all beats stolen from some one's else's creativity. Most of the spiritual song's have no anointing, The clothes and shoes you wear is not designed to flatter, but to expose and entice. High heels make you switch, ruin your feet and spine, but you look good! PULL you Pant's up MEN. So much depression and loneliness, unhappiness, in God's house? Say it isn't so. Stand-up, sit down, slap you neighbor up-side the head five times and tell him, I'm touchin' heaven in 2011!
Most services have become a travesty, with praise coaches, stick-up artists and spirit exhorters who have no interest in your soul or salvation, it's become a contest to see who can make us shout or,display the latest vocal antics. That's why most have to tell the people to stand up, clap your hands. (the dead entertaining the dying!) 
We come in hurt and leave hurt. We come in with lust and leave the same way. We go up and get a tap on the head from the "fairy god" father/mother and fall out a devil, and rise up a devil. No change... But we had Church..... No, you've been had!
I'm generalizing of course. Their are good spirit led Churches, real Pastors and preachers and anointed singers, but to see an example of how effective a ministry is, look in the mirror. Is their any progress, any spiritual growth? Why do you even bother to go to Church. What is Church to U, your family, your friends? I know that the "walk of Salvation," is a process, from grace to grace and faith to faith, but their are some that aren't even on the stairs yet.
Can a Church shout to much? Hmm, it depends on what you're shoutin' about. Has God blessed you too much? Has His Word revealed anything about you or the things inside you?
Praise and worship in combination with the Word and teaching, (understanding)  of the same will help you understand God's purpose in your life and understand where you fit in and  things about you, that you thought nobody else knew? Do you have any idea about His purpose for your life? It is a balance of all these things. When we are balanced, no one will have to tell us or lead, us in praise and worship, or to give, or to learn and apply the teachings of life. No, it will just be what we do, because it's who/what we are.

Thanks "mswildpraize." You stirred the soul of this, battle-worn servant, to remember what was, and before I close my eye's, to see what will surely come again... because: He's the same yesterday, today and forevermore!
