I want to share an experience I had where the power of the Holy Spirit was displayed. All glory and Honor to the Father, Son, and the Holy Ghost:

I was not a believer at this time. It was in a church we used to go to. There was a man of God that came to the church, and I was in children's ministry, I think teens ministry when he came. They would show him on TV in the children'r room, while he was in the adult side of the building. I watched this man on that TV and he would tell people to run to the stage, and before they would run to the stage they would fall down, and people would have to catch them.

Now, I remember a long time ago when I was a child my brother and I would mimic the adults who fell out, so when the Pastor would call for people to go down, my brother and I went down, and when he did that motion, we fell down, and we thought the longer we stayed down, the more serious it was. I even think I smiled while I was down there, because I didn't know when to get up. It was a terrible and sticky moment to remember.

Anyhow, this man of God came again for another time when I had left teens ministry and was now in the adult side. I remembered him. And the first time I saw him, I was already nervous. I thought he knew everything about me, so I was afraid that he would call me out, and I would fall down like those other people. I was so, so, afraid of this man.

And soon, during the service, whereas I thought I would be safe, that he would just keep talking and then we could go (which was the usual idea at this church), he started calling people to run down to the stage. But he would set up people to catch them, and sure enough before they even got to the stage they would fall down as if some unseen force just knocked them out. I got more afraid. I wanted to hide from this man. And time after time people would run and fall, run and fall.

But I was in for it. He said that the Holy Spirit was about to move through the whole church, or something like that. I got so nervous. The chairs were split up into three groups. And so he told the first group to hold hands, and that the Power was going to be in that area. And they did it, and they ALL fell down in their chairs at one time. And then the 2nd group held hands, and they all fell. And then it came to our group, and I promised myself that I would not fall. I was sure I would not fall. But all I remembered is getting up. And all of my memory was clear, and my breathe was clear. It was like a my mind became a blank sheet of copy paper. I didn't have anything to think of. I was completely wiped out!!

I believe the Lord let me experience this so I could know that his power is not what people make it. So that I could know that there is a greater knowledge of God. This was so long ago, and I have not experienced anything like these things. I wonder if the church even has the Holy Spirit, or did they just get comfortable with dead doctrine, and mess. Where is the Power???

May Jesus bless you.

Thats so beautiful thanks. This still happens.. I think more just fall freely. When I was younger I over heard my mom on the phone at work one day talk about people falling over at Church. So I asked if I could go. I was saved. Anyway this man of God was there for like a week and it was Friday night. At some point he asked if anyone wanted to experance the power of God. I thought DUH yes. So I went up. There was allot of people but no one around me and his back was to me. I was not nervous or anything.

So he turns takes on finger and touches my head. A the next thing I know I am opening my eyes.. on my back. NO CLUE how long I was there. Started to get up.. something hit my feet shot into my chest and.. praise GOD it was so so beautiful. I don't seek these things out but another time this other preacher had a meeting somewhere so I went. At the end was going to pray about those called or in the ministry. :) a very dear friend told me to ask for the anointing. In all truth I was young but she prayed 4h a day and had so much power of God in her life.

Well I went up as others but.. you didn't get to ask for anything. He was just going to person to person laying hands on there head. So when he got to me .. I just said real fast FOR THE ANOINTING..lol. Well it was as if lightening hit my left hand and shot all the way down. The second he touched me. I was not expecting anything. Just.. getting prayed for.

And as she use to say.. God is no light switch we can turn off or on. He is ALWAYS ON! ALL of this should be and MORE happening. Just simply believe.. expect. Faith

Brother Ramon ( 2Cor 13:5-8) Fine Point Ramon!! The Church needs to look to itself rather then judge outsiders!! Hence Many Churches problems.

I seen it once only, was at a pentecostal church in Western Australia, a white cloud drifted by me in the aisle, most extraordinary feeling imaginable, I almost feinted, then it disappeared. The two pastors on stage also saw it but it seems no one else.
