Recently I was switching my bank accounts from California to Nevada. I went into the local branch of my bank and met a nice gentleman who started to help me switch my accounts. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
All of a sudden he stops and looks at me and asks, “What do you do for a living?” <\/p>\n\n\n\n
I thought, “Oh brother, my cover is blown.” I knew God was moving. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
I told him that I had been a pastor since 1988. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
All of a sudden, tears started welling up in his eyes. He said to me, “I am a Christian but I haven’t been living like one.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n
He explained to me that his marriage to his first wife ended in divorce and the lady he is with now he is not married to.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
He came under the conviction of God.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I told him that God is not done with him yet, and he can try to keep ignoring the promptings of the Spirit, or he can surrender and come back to a right relationship with Jesus.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
He assured me that he would, and I fully expect to see him in fellowship with a local body of believers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
God will work on people anyplace and at any time. I did not have to make this divine appointment happen. God scheduled it on His own calendar.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
