ANOTHER COFFEE BREAK: DEALING WITH FEAR, Part 2
We have a lot of ground to cover today, so without any preliminaries, let’s get underway again today with the verse from II Timothy 1:7, amplified from the Greek text: “For God has not endowed, or committed to our being and existence the spirit (the very breath and speaking forth) of fear, timidity and faithlessness; but of miraculous power, might and strength, and of agape love, and of a disciplined mind (under control and not subject to “flights of fancy”).” (RAC Translation and Amplification)
ANOTHER COFFEE BREAK: INDEPENDENCE DAY
Today’s Coffee Break is a departure from our new series on Dealing with Fear. Because we celebrate Independence Day as a nation, I just felt to make some comments and observations and requests to all of you on this 4th of July. We will return to our series on fear next week.
ANOTHER COFFEE BREAK: DEALING WITH FEAR, Part 1
Peter and Janet Van Hierdan are friends we’ve known for the past nine years. We met under rather unusual circumstances during a tour of the National Cemetery in Washington, DC. Peter was walking in front of us, engaged in an animated discussion with a Canadian friend.

Earlier this past week, I had an experience that has been an eye-opener. Some sixty years have gone by since I was first baptized in the Holy Spirit. On the night that I was baptized in the Holy Spirit and began to speak in tongues, it was nearly four hours before I could speak a word in English.

We were doing a bit of reminiscing in the past few days about some of the rather humorous events of our childhoods and I was sharing with folks an event that took place in the winter of 1947 in Nome, Alaska.

Ever have the Lord spring surprises on you? Ever have Him provide unusual favor in circumstances where it might not be likely? Well, sometimes it’s just really cool to see God perform quickly and in unusual ways to our requests.

Della caught an “OOPS!” in part 30 that got past me, and it seemed like a good idea to start today by correcting that misstatement. I said, “Jesus fulfilled both parts of the Covenant — His part as the provider and enforcer, and our part, which required the shedding of blood for the remission (aphiémi: eradication) of all past sins, iniquities, failings, etc., and — more than that — the curse that brought about sin, sickness, disease, infirmity and demonic affliction.”
ANOTHER COFFEE BREAK: APHIEMI HEALING, Part 31
This is a strange way to begin today, but let me begin by asking you a question. Why is it that we continue to put up with the physical attacks on our bodies?
ANOTHER COFFEE BREAK: APHIEMI HEALING, Part 30
A quick note before we get started today: due to increased family activities on Fridays with the encroaching summer, more and more people are finding Friday nights an issue to join us for our Healing Prayer Call.

Dale Petersen and his wife, Merlee, pastored a fellowship in Spokane for a number of years known as Springs of Living Water. Della and I first met them through mutual friends in late 1990 or early 1991.
