ACTS OF THE HOLY SPIRIT - DELIVERANCE

Captain Ian led worship and spoke at our monthly TOGETHER meeting, attended by a good number again, of people giving this time away from the busyness of a Sunday morning gathering. We looked at the subject of Deliverance, and the captain taught us how this is a subject that many want to avoid, but has to be part of the ministry of all Churches. We recognised as Christians how we have all experienced deliverance - for we have been delivered from the darkness and brought into the Light. We recognised how we are all praying 'deliver us from evil' but not always allowing that to be our experience. We looked at songs of the church and how they express for us the belief we need to be standing for Jesus and knowing that He is greater. Of course too Scripture was used, with some personal stories, that helped us to understand a little more of this important ministry, and blessing that God has for all His People. Songs included:- Would you be free from your burden of sin?; All over the world the Spirit is moving; Blessed be Your Name; Great is the Darkness; The Spirt of the Lord is on me now; The Splendour of the King, concluding with Then sings my soul, My Saviour God to Thee, How Great Thou Art!
