In November of this 2007, I had the privilege of ministering in a small Korean Baptist Church with a tremendously big heart, nestled in a rural area of Florence, South Carolina. Pastor Kyun Woo Ji had contacted me several times, trying to schedule a visit and his excitement about the prospect was certainly contagious. When I arrived, I found him prayed up and eagerly anticipating the ministry of Holy Spirit. I was pleased to find the members were equally passionate about Jesus and very open to the working of Holy Spirit. However, their early morning meetings were a bit of a stretch, particularly combined with jet lag! It was up at 4:30 am in the morning to arrive for the 5:30 am sessions. However, after a nap in the afternoon I was totally refreshed and excited to go for the evening session.
I taught on the Kingdom, focusing on Healing, Miracles, Prophecy and Intimacy with God and our ministry times following each teaching session were powerful as Holy Spirit was so wonderfully welcomed. On the second and third night we were blessed with the attendance of many of the members from the Revival Time Praise Centre – a neighbouring African American Church and we worshipped together – what a powerful experience.
John 4:23-24
Yet a time is coming and has now come when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and truth, for they are the kind of worshipers the Father seeks. 24 God is spirit, and his worshipers must worship in spirit and in truth.” NIV
On the last night we focused on physical healing and several were healed. One of the women from the Revival Church had been limping for years, the result of a serious knee problem and as the healing prayer was spoken out, she felt her knee click and the pain was immediately gone. She walked forward to give her testimony with tears of gratitude running down her cheeks.
Pastor Ji has a heart to have his church truly embody the nature of Holy Spirit and become a powerful influence for Jesus in Florence and the surrounding area. I came away from my time with Pastor Ji feeling confident that he will see the fulfillment of his dream.
