Wig’s Word of God Today 5-4-2011
Go and take your place in the temple area, and tell the people everything about this life. Acts 5:20
For God so loved the world that He gave His only Son, so that everyone who believes in Him might not perish but might have Eternal Life. John 3:16
Acts 5:17-26, Psalm 34 & John 3:16-21
How do you testify to the Holy Spirit leading you? Can you feel Him when He enters Your Soul and seemingly gives you the right things to say and when to say it? I’ve always referred to “goose bumps” as “God Bumps” when the Holy Spirit enters my heart and soul and illuminates my being with a Light of comfort, tranquility and peace. It’s what draws me back to safety and allows me to speak with confidence when I proclaim to complete strangers. It is the Ultimate High of all highs and eliminates the need to stimulate yourself with chemicals or alcohol where one escapes reality instead of embracing the Truth.
Without the Holy Spirit, the Holy Ghost or the Spirit of Love, whatever your name is for God’s Holy Presence in your heart and the Soul of Humanity, the Apostles would not have been able to share the Truth about God’s Only Son and His Redemption from sins for over 2000 years. Further into Acts 5 we learn about a Pharisee named Gamaliel who shares his opinion that saved the lives of the Apostles which to me is a statement of Truth no human can alter because it comes from God and will serve to be the absolute Truth regarding those who embrace Christ as their Savior. “So now I tell you, have nothing to do with these men, and let them go. For if this endeavor or this activity is of human origin, it will destroy itself. But if it comes from God, you will not be able to destroy them; you may even find yourselves fighting against God.” Acts 5:38-39
I can’t imagine a more well-known verse of the Bible than John 3:16. It seems as a kid it was the most prominent banner displayed at every NFL game I ever watched. Still to this day someone always displays “John 3:16” on a banner at each game you see. For God brought His Son to earth to die for Humanity’s Sin and redeem the world from Hell’s eternal fire. My wife and I shared prayer last night in a hospital room with a good friend who is in severe pain after an operation and his belief and love of God could be seen through the tremendous pain he was suffering from while we prayed together. He struggled to pray the Rosary with us but you could see the determination in his face to open his heart to God and trust in His Will to be accomplished. For if you love your love of Christ, you will not perish but have Everlasting Life in trust, peace and love of God. Amen!
So we ask in prayer: Dear LORD, we pray today for August Silva who is suffering severe pain from an operation. We know You LORD can heal all things and we ask You heal Auggie from his pain and return him home to keep working for You. In Jesus Name we pray. Amen.
God Bless,

Romans 8:28
“Spirit led God inspired Christ fed”
God’s Light Always Prevails- John 3:16
His Son He sent
The world His love
Redemption of sin
Forgiveness from above
Belief in Him
The Son of Truth
Perish not your fate
Eternal Life you choose
Not to condemn His Way
To lift up and say
Belief in Me
The True Way to pray
The world received His Light
Darkness would fail
Evil lurks in shadows
God’s Light always prevails
