Today was an incredibly busy day at work, making me run most of it just to stay even. It was just Satan's way of trying to mess up the meeting I was supposed to attend at church this evening. Last Sunday, one of the ladies at church asked another of the ladies and me to pray for her to receive the baptism in the Holy Spirit. We set it up to meet at the church at 7 pm. I didn't even get out the door at work until 6:58, but was still at church by 7:19. Both ladies were waiting, just visiting with each other. We started to pray, making sure the lady was a Christian, asking for Satan to be bound, and inviting the Holy Spirit to join us. It was wonderful! Such a sweet peace flooded the altar, that we ended up just soaking Him in. And the next thing we knew, our friend was softly praying in a new language! It was beautiful! I went into church kind of frazzled and tired, and came out just praising my wonderful Lord for all that He accomplishes in us when we let Him. I was still tired (a good tired), but no longer frazzled. I love it when the ones called to minister get as blessed as the one asking for ministering. What a way to end the day!
