    It was a Wednesday evening service at a church in Nelsonville, OH. I was in my normal mode of operation as a guest speaker. I was introduced by the pastor and sang a couple of songs to prepare the congregation for the ministry of the Word of God. Suddenly, during the teaching of the Word, I was interrupted by “The Holy Ghost” with “Words of Knowledge”
    (1 Corinthians 12:4-11).

    For me, the “Word of Knowledge” works by hearing “The Holy Ghost” whisper something to me. It comes as a suggestion, thought, or idea. It also comes to me as an “Inward Intuition.” The inward intuition is an inward knowing of a need, or needs in the congregation. The Word of Knowledge also comes to me by physically feeling specific symptoms of the members in the congregation.

    During this meeting, there were two outstanding words that came to me. The first one was concerning couples having difficulty in their marriage. I called it out and asked the couples to stand. One couple stood and I was directed by “The Holy Ghost” to pray for them through the “Laying on of Hands” (Hebrews 6:1-2). As I prayed, there was a release in them and me as well. I knew on the inside of me that God had met their need.

    The next thing that I encountered has never happened to me again since this particular meeting. I sensed a “hot flash.” This feeling stayed with me for a while, so I called it out. Sure enough there were several women who had been experiencing “hot flashes.” I had the women stand, and then come to the front to be prayed for. As they came forward I explained what I was experiencing. During my explanation one of the ladies interrupted me by exclaiming, “you probably felt it.” I let her know she was correct. Afterwards, I prayed for them with the laying on of hands. There was a transference of power released from my hands into their bodies. As far as I was concerned they all received what they were looking for from God.

    It was the State of Florida. I was once again doing a series of meetings. My normal mode of ministry is to sing two or three songs to set the atmosphere for the 'Ministry of the Word.' It is peppered with 'Words of Knowledge,' 'Personal Prophesy;' as well as 'Demonstrations of The Holy Ghost' (Hebrews 2:4).

    As I was teaching 'The Word,' I could tell that the atmosphere was charged with an 'Outstanding Presence.' During the teaching the congregation was really with me. They were very expectant of a move of God. As I continued teaching, it was as if I was in a cubical. The only way I can explain it is this cubiform was full of 'God's Glory' — 'His Presence.' It sure made my job easy that evening, as I just followed the leading of 'The Holy Ghost.' While sharing the message I was very sensitive to 'The Holy Spirit.' I didn't want to do anything that would grieve Him, and cause Him to depart (Ephesians 4:30).

    As previously stated, I was in a cubical of 'God's Glory.' Sometime in the midst of this, I felt someone touch my right hip. There was no one physically close to me so I knew it was 'The Holy Spirit' speaking to me. After I felt someone touch my right hip, I responded with a 'Word of Knowledge'
    (1 Corinthians 12:8).

    I knew that someone in the congregation was having trouble with their right hip. So I called it out to the congregation. I simply asked, “Is there anyone here having trouble with your right hip?” Sure enough, there was a woman sitting in the congregation to my right with a hinderance in her right hip. I had a woman lay hands on her, in her hip area, as I prayed (Mark 16:18; Hebrews 6:2). The woman felt the 'Power of God' go into her hip and was immediately healed.

    Many other things happened during this series of meetings, but nothing as phenomenal as what I am about to tell you. A man came up to me at the close of the service, and asked to talk with me. I granted him the freedom to speak. He at once began telling me that he saw my angel. He said the angel would bend over and whisper something in my ear, and then I would speak it out. He went on to tell me that my angel was huge in stature. He was not a little fellow, but he stood several feet tall. This is my explanation, to why I had the feeling in my right hip. My angel tapped me in my right hip, and I just called it out.

    There are over 250 references in the Bible to the ministry of angels. No, they are not little fat babies with wings as some artists have portrayed. They have a valid ministry to you and me, if only we would believe (Hebrews 1:14 NIV).

    Hebrews 13:2 The Living Bible

    {2} Don't forget to be kind to strangers, for some who have done this have entertained angels without realizing it!
