This last week, I have had a real struggle with a lot of things. Last night, I had a visit from 8 men. Their names were T. K. Leonard, E. N. Bell, Cyrus Fockler, J. W. Welch, J. R. Flower, D. C. Opperman, Howard Goss, and M. M. Pinson. They were the very first Executive Presbytery of the Assemblies of God. They told me they along with God have seen my struggles, and that I am on the right course. They encouraged me to keep doing things as I have been and to be encouraged and keep up the good work.
This was the most incredible thing, I have ever had happen and I cannot stop shaking when I think about it.
I have never personally met any of these men and have only read about them while studying the history of the AG. They did not introduce themselves but it was if we knew each other already. This morning I looked in my books and found their picture and names. The picture was from the very first meeting of the AG in Hot Springs Arkansas in 1914.
When I told the congregation this morning, even the most stoic person had tears in her eyes.
Do not even try to tell me it was not real or they were demons in disguise. I know what it was, and it was real.
