Pastor Glen Ferguson: As We Went to Prayer (Part 2 of 2 MUST SEE)

What happens when the Church gets serious about prayer?

As we pray what is hidden to the natural eye is momentarily revealed to us and the supernatural world is made manifest in the natural. Join Faith Dimensions Ministries, as Pastor Glen Ferguson, opens the Word with power and authority on the subject of "Prayer".

Acts 16 v16-18

Luke relays the plight of this unfortunate damsel girl, he tells us that she was possessed (influenced by a powerful force) by an evil spirit of divination. She was thought of as being special and gifted and many were happy to pay her for her service of fortunetelling; she also made her masters a lot of money from her trade and art of foretelling events and making predictions.

Verse 16 "As we went to prayer..." Isn't it amazing what happens when the Church gets serious about prayer? As we pray what is going on and hidden will be revealed, the supernatural world is made manifest in the natural.

Some revealing definitions of the words:
• Damsel (paid-sken) means slave girl
• Divination (put-hona) means fortunetelling, it is from this word that we get the English word "Python", which is a large snake which kills by wrapping itself around its victim and death is thus achieved by suffocation. The Greek god Apollo was said to have slain the great serpent python and as a result took its gift of prediction, Apollo's name became Puthios Apollo, "Python Apollo".

This slave girl was thought to have had the spirit of Putona and was regarded as having the voice of the Greek god Apollo.
Verse 17 "These men are servants of the most high God..." This was in actual a fact true, but the revelation came from an evil and corrupt source.

Verse 18 The Holy Spirit revealed to Paul the source of this girls dwords. He saw the planned actions of Satan and addressed the demon; commanding it to leave the girl and it did so immediately.

He used the name of Jesus, that name which is not only greater than Apollo, but all other names or god's and at His name this demonic spirit and every other spirit has to leave.
