"It's Supernatural"

David:  Some years ago, I was in a church in Syracuse, NY and we had some great revival meetings andone of the ladies who came, why she happened to come I will never know, other than God, obviously.  But this lady actually caused a split in her church.   She was going to a church that did not believe in the gifts of the Spirit.  Now, here’s a point of reference.  Growing up in a culture that doesn’t believe in “fire’s hot” is kind of weird.  I know that.  That’s just kind of a make believe, you know, illustration.  But what is a very real illustration, what is a very world…I mean reality, people believe God doesn’t heal anymore.  People believe the gifts of the Spirit are for long ago and they’re not for today and there’s a lot of people that believe that.  This lady that was in my church meeting one night in Syracuse, NY happened to believe that.  And she was sitting there, again, other than God I don’t know why she came, but the place was packed out with people.  But right in the middle of my message for some reason, God spoke to me and pointed her out to me and I knew by the Spirit that she had a back problem.  And I don’t know what the back problem was.  It’s not important, but I stopped and I said, “You there in the red sweater.  I just got a word from God and the sense that I have is you have a back problem” and I said, “Is that true?”  And she said, “Yeah, wow, serious back problem”, which I remember a car accident or something like that.  Now see we’re not really into the gifts of the Spirit yet, in terms of definition, but what happened to me was God gave me what’s called a word of knowledge.  I knew something I had no knowledge of.  Now, later after the meeting, I found out from natural knowledge, this lady belonged to a church that… I think it was a Baptist church, not important, but a church that did not believe in the gifts of the Spirit, didn’t believe in the power of God, didn’t believe in the operation of the supernatural.  But she came with her friend to this meeting and now what happened is God singled her out.  And when I said, “Is that true?” and she said, “Yes” and I said, “Well, would you just stand?” and she stood and I’m sure there was reluctance because she caused her church to split.  Her pastor in this church experienced the reality of God’s miracle power.  He got baptized with the Holy Ghost and as he began to introduce it to different people in this church, like this lady, they rebelled.  Why?  Because they didn’t know the truth.  She had no orientation to reality.  She believed a lie.  She grew up believing “fire’s not hot”, but what happened is, God wanted to show her the truth, wanted to prove His power and His reality.  And when she stood up, the power of God hit her, she fell over and she got up completely healed.
