As I write this, I am 81 years of age and thought at this age would be slowing down. However, God has other plans.

I am happily married to my gorgeous wife, Ruth. My first beautiful wife, Margaret, went to be with the Lord on May 29, 2000, passing to Glory from cancer.

Ruth and I are blessed with five wonderful children, all happily married and have given us 15 awesome grandchildren and 9 great grandchildren.

We were living a perfect life until Covid 19 which changed everything including losing 80% of our net worth, which was very substantial.

A new day dawned. I have always loved the Lord, and served Him as a Pastor and a successful businessman. However, I have never really had to trust God for very much in my life.

My first study was on what it meant to be God’s Temple; I Cor. 3:16,17; 6:17-20. The result was to write my first book, “Your Body is God’s Temple”, now for sale through Amazon.com or Trivita. The Apostle Paul in Colossians 1:24-27 wrote about this truth as the mystery that has been hidden from the ages and generations. New uncovered for all is the riches of the magnificence of this mystery, which is Christ in you, the hope of glory.

“To recognize and receive the wondrous truth of being God’s Temple is the beginning of walking and living a supernatural life”. ~~ Michael Ellison

The supernatural event took place when three friends, Jim Janz and Ken Hayes offered to pay for the editing and publishing of my book and Michael Ellison offered to pay for the advertising. We have many other supernatural events which we will share on our podcasts.

NEXT. When I began to realize and understand the authority that Christ gives us as His Temple, I wrote my second book. “Spiritual Authority” which changed my life. When Jesus Christ announced the coming Church in Matt. 16:18,19, He said 3 things:

 It is my Church

 I will build it

 I will give you the keys (competent authority) to the Kingdom of Heaven, which is God’s government on earth.

John the Baptist (Matt. 3:2) and Jesus Christ (Matt. 4:17) both had the same message – “Repent, for the Kingdom of Heaven is

at hand’.

But it is a mystery to the world. Matt. 13:11

I sent the draft of “Spiritual Authority” to the Christian Post, who have a wonderful daily website. They have edited the book and are now promoting to their database of 6 million along with our podcasts (on Edify) which extends to over 500,000. Michael Ellison’s podcast is now available to his database of over 100,000. I soon began to realize that even as we are God’s Temple and He has given us His authority, unless we have a relationship and are guided by the Holy Spirit, our efforts will be in vain. Remember when Jesus said, “I still have many things to say to you, but you cannot bear them now. However, when He, the Spirit of truth has come, He will guide you into all truth, for He will not speak on His own authority, but whatever He hears He will speak, and He will tell you things to come. He will glory Me for He will take of what is Mine and declare it to you.” John

16:12-14

The Holy Spirit will guide us into all truth on the authority that it will glorify Jesus Christ. I have now just completed my third book, outlining the 33 amazing, supernatural things He wants to do for us. This is life changing.

“”Without the Holy spirit, we are like a ship without a sail and can do nothing”.

~~ Charles Spurgeon.

I am now working on my fourth book, entitled “The Difference Between the Logos and Rhema Word of God."

“Wise leaders should have known that the human heart cannot exist in a vacuum. If Christians are forbidden to enjoy the wine of the Spirit, they will turn to the wine of the flesh…. Christ died for our heart and the Holy Spirit wants to come and satisfy them. If the Holy Spirit was withdrawn from the church today, 95% of what we do would go on and no one would know the difference. If the Holy Spirit had been withdrawn from the New

Testament church, 95% of what they did would stop and everybody would know the difference. The Spirit filled life is not a special, deluxe edition of Christianity. It is part and parcel of the total plan of God for His people.” ~~ A.W. Tozer

Here is our challenge. “About 67% of Americans say they are Christian but about 52% say that the Holy Spirit is not God”. ~~ Barna

I am now understanding what it means to ABIDE (dwell) in the Rhema (revealed) Word of God. “Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and lean not on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge Him, and He shall direct your paths. Do not be wise in your own eyes. Fear the Lord, and depart from evil. It will be health to your flesh, and strength to your bones”.

Proverbs 3:5-8

“Now if God so clothes the grass of the field, which today is, and tomorrow is thrown into the oven, will He not much more clothe you, O you of little faith? Therefore do not worry, saying, ‘what shall we eat?’ or ‘what shall awe drink?’ or ‘what shall we wear’? For after all these things the Gentiles seek. For your heavenly Father knows that you need all these things. But seek first the Kingdom of god and His righte4ousness and all these things shall be added to you. Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about its own things. Sufficient for the day is its own trouble”. Matthew 6:30-34

Someone said you have to live it before you teach it!!

“Who will save us now that the monster Covid 19 has broken free? The pandemic has humbled the country and the world and has opened up

Millions of eyes to this risky universe once more. In the Old Testament, it would seem that men of Spiritual resources may not only Redeem catastrophe but turn the moment into A great creative opportunity. For societies founded on Biblical traditions, pandemics need not make for the end. This is call for repentance and revival. Great struggles can produce great clarity."

~~ The Wall Street Journal

Now is the time for Spiritual Authority! What is Spiritual Authority? One who learns spiritual authority in his or her life must recognize that the essential source of all authority is God. While many rely on their position granted to them by another human being, spiritual authority comes only from God. When you walk and live in the incredible truth that you are God’s Temple, spiritual authority, which God has promised, is life changing. To apply God’s spiritual authority to your life and circumstances, the one major ingredient you need is FAITH. It is impossible (impotent) to please God without faith. By faith, Noah build a ship in the idle of dry land. By faith, Abraham said yes to God’s call to travel to an unknown place that would become his home at age seventy-five. By faith, barren Sarah was able to become pregnant. By faith, George Mueller fed over 10,000 orphans. At this time, England was only looking after 3,600 orphans. By faith Mueller build five large orphanages. By faith, Mueller never asked anybody but God for money and millions of dollars came in.

My first book, “Your Body is God’s Temple” (available on Amazon.com or TriVita). The awesome truth that we are God’s Temple with the Holy Spirit living with us and because of this amazing truth, God gives us spiritual authority. Desperately needed today. God will heal our land (divine intervention or cure like a physician) IF we follow His spiritual authority, II Chronicles 7:13-15

“Every one of is searching for truth and accountability can dip into the deep well of this extraordinary book with confidence. I have known this man for many years and observed his ability and steadfast character. With insight and research, Barry takes us behind the curtain of the peripheral into the ancient reliability of meanings and events that nourishes the soul of the reader.” Read this book. It will awaken and satisfy your deepest yearnings. Then send a copy to a friend.”

We must listen to the voice of God. This is a must-watch! It will give you hope.

EXPECT SUPERNATURAL BREAKTHROUGHS TODAY

“Your Body is God’s Temple”

“To get a nation back on its feet, we must get down on our knees” ~~ Billy Graham

“If you believe in prayer at all and expect God to hear your prayer, it will depend on your faith”.

~~ Charles Spurgeon”

TOP TIPS FOR CHRISTIAN LIVING ~~ C.S. Lewis

1. Possesses true humility – self help books not always bad but usually promote self.

2. Choose trust over originality. Always repeat the truth according to Scripture.

3. Pursue God over happiness. Catching a glimpse of God becomes more important than happiness.

4. Understanding progress often means turning back. ‘Turning back’ is the definition of repentance.

5. Listen to the Holy Spirit. Stand back and listen to the Holy Spirit.

BEHAVIOUR FOLLOWS BELIEF

Maybe we have reached the point where we need to give God a chance?
