welcome yosemite from mississippi!
Sunlight from TX here.
i like it here too.
Hi Happy to hear you like it here.
I am Amanda.
As I was reading your post i was just thinking that some people just take a little longer to Get the Holy Ghost than others, Don't put your self down or put yourself on a time frame as to how much time it is or should take for you to receive it. It will happen at the BEST time and that would be God's don't worry it is coming sooner than you think.... just keep praying.
hi again all!!! amanda i was looking at your dodads at botom of your post and i gotta say that is one verse that scares me many called but few chosen what if im not chosen what if it is futile in trying to get HolyGhost donno???? man i realy like this place. thnx all
That verse is NOT referring to the Holy Ghost.
We are all able to receive it Don't let that scare you ok, God is a Loving God.
His will is that that all come to him, that NONE shall parish but all shall have everlasting life through Him.
He is willing to give if you just ask, He is not going to demand he is a gentlemen he will not give unless you ask and you are willing to give your whole heart, soul, mind,and strength he is willing you just need to keep on praying and you to will be saturated with God and he will give you your hearts desire.
The Joy of the Lord is Your Strength.
acts 2:39- and this promise is unto you, unto your children, and to all that are afar off.
that includes me and you.
yall are right i guess i over read scripture sometimes. but i can see the sign of the times and know surely we havnt long and to be honest am scared to death. have been prophesied over though. was told i had a valuable ministery for god he said he didnt know what it was and probly wasnt precher but would be valuble to god. it hasnt been revealed to me and i still havnt got holyghost. the profesy gives me a little breathing room and releives me a little since i dont think god would leave me hanging when i have honestly asked for forgiveness and seek him always. the only thing i can tell is maybe he is training me for something. donno? i do know that i know more about the bible now than ever and more has been revealed to me than ever. still not good with chpt. verse! but if you get me started i can finish the qote. and prety well tell you what it means. i got bible on tape,cd,dvd. movies have went from shotem ups to biblical reinactments. and as i mentioned i got xm radio that i almost always listen to faith channels. only one secular program coast to coast am with george nory about paranormal sometimes he has rev baxter on there but mostly ghosts and aliens conspiracy program. ( i know!!!!!) lol
Nice to have you on Godplace.....
And I couldn't help but laugh about your username, because I'm one of many who knows that Yosemite (National Park) is in earthquake-ravaged California, not hurricane-ripped Mississippi
Yosemite (Sam) is also from Cali.
Do you hates flea-bearin', no-good fer nothin, varmints? :grin:
"Ooooooo that RABBIT!"
Yosemite Sam was always one of my favorites.
I listen to coast to coast sometimes.
term yosemite comes from yosemite sam charicter i always liked him i guess because i can relate. fussin and fuddin.!!lol under-dog!!! as for earthquakes tornados and hurricanes i need to get shook up so i can wittness a mighty rushing wind. have had handle yosemite longer than computers have been commonplace in homes. tipical truck driver with a non tipical handle. most handles are vulgar and should not be used aspeacially on citisen band radios where there are no moniters!!! this practice has ruined truck ind. and reputation of drivers. just a little about me!!! thnx guy yall are constantly making me feel at home.

It took me 18 months and all I can say, God drew you for a reason and he doesn't leave anything unfinished. He promised the Holy Ghost to anyone who wants it and you WILL get it because he said so.
Please don't get frustrated. I did so many times, and others kept asking what was wrong. *Shrug* I DID get it. I prayed for help over the threshold into His Spirit and he did it........... finally.
You're probably not possessed. If you were, you would have a fight on your hands when you got baptised.
Most of the time, it's just because we've been through a lot and sometimes when we have, we're afraid to trust. Just trust that God promised it and he will always deliver. His time isn't ours, so what may have been ten minutes to him was 18 months to me.
I know one guy who was praying over his breakfast cereal and got the Holy Ghost and forgot to eat. He said that he KNEW Wheaties really WAS the breakfast of champions. Hee hee.
Relax, and try to keep your mind off "getting it" and just get into God. But I know how hard that is. When you want it so bad, and aren't getting it, it is on your mind.
yeah what she said.
so many get discouraged because they focus only on getting the Holy Ghost, and forget that having a relationship with Him is the most important thing. just sit back and spend time reading his word, and talking to him and doing what you know is right. things will happen just when they are supposed to.
yall gonna laugh and might explain why aint got it yet but i was baptised in a horse troft---LOL but in pics after baptism my feet floated out of water. when head went in feet came out. several issues have pressed on me the reason i think of possession when there is a powerfull preacher and he gives alter call there is an anger that builds up in me i feel my face go red hot and i just gotta get outside. i dont know where this comes from i know i should go to the alter but am affraid i will expload before i get there so i opt for outside. the first thing that pops into mind is go get a ciggerette thatll calm u down. i know what ishould do but have trouble putting feet to pavement. thnx hope i havnt went too farr left feild for yall. yo
must have went too far left feild!LOL :frustrated:
I was baptized in a horse trough, they're more common than ya think. Your feet were in the water to begin with -so you're good brother. :thumbsup2:
Next time Yosemite, run up to the alter and throw yourself down. Seriously.
well, if we could all only be that honest. --- But, the Lord is just waiting on us. He's already sent us the Holyghost, its up to us to do everything in our being to be willing to recieve it. Anytime you feel that little tug to do what-ever it may be, do it, wether its going to the alter, raising your hands, or whatever... as nike says, Just Do it. lol...
i hear what u are saying mellow,but in the back of my mind im saying someone will acuse me of theatrics. thnx yo
those are the people that aren't full of the Holy Ghost to discern then huh? You, with all your heart, submit/seek God and let God handle the rest. David danced till he was naked, some thought he was being dramatic, but it pleased the Lord that David was that moved, was that exubrant about Him, that it is a testimony throughout all time - to us!
buuuutttt... you probably should keep your clothes on....lol :biglaugh:
mellow i have thought about david many times. the dance u have discribed,didnt he shed his uniform of king to say i am as anyone here. just a man that shows humble praise. i also want to do the dance casting all cares aside. thnx yo where did ya go?
