The Gift of Prophecy...




A couple weeks ago on July 4th I attended a new church with a friend of mine to a place in San Bernardino called Kingdom Culture Worship Center. My friend Chris has told me about it amazing it is and although it's a small and growing church, the Holy Spirit is so powerful there and it's such a free place to worship and I needed to experience it. He also shared with me that the pastor there, Sherman Dumas, who has the gift of prophecy. I was scared and to be honest a little skeptical about the whole thing because I had never experienced anything like that before, but only read about it in the Scripture. I knew that type of gift existed but I just wasn't sure because people these days, especially in America, use that type of gift as a rouse to con people. I did a lot of praying about it and after I heard so many positive things about it from respected believers, I decided to go to their morning service.

It goes without saying that I was blown away. The worship time was probably one of the most liberating and blessed worship times I've had with the Lord in a long time. I felt so free and at peace with the Lord and there was no doubt about it that the Spirit was full of life there! The message was wonderful and it talked about how we ourselves should be offering ourselves up to the Lord as sacrifices and how to worship Him the way we were design to worship Him. And at the very end after the offering was given, Sherman got up and looked at me and asked me to come down because the Lord has showed him something and He had a message for me. I was blown away by what was said and I knew it was the Lord because a lot of what was said were things I had only prayed about with the Lord. Here's the video (I'm a couple minutes into the video with a blue flannel shirt) If the video doesn't work use this link:

I left encouraged, inspired, overwhelmed, and so very blessed! Since then I have heard God more clearly and sought to be a better child of God for the benefit of what God's purpose for me is in this life. I pray you are blessed by this video as I was. God is mighty and powerful and so very gracious! To Him be all the glory forever and ever!!!
