RAINMAKERS

There are videos circulating on the internet where " flat-earthers " are taken to Antarctica and they see the "24hr" sun which flat-earthers say IS NOT THERE! The evidence speaks for itself.  Equally egregious is the belief that the age of miracles, healings, signs, wonders, and the gifts of the Spirit have ceased. They have a name for those who hold to this belief - Cessationists! I find this belief to be very frustrating, and just like the "flat-earthers" going to Antarctica, I could take any one of those cessationists to Africa or India and show them God at work, doing what they say He doesn't do anymore.  I compare cessationist to flat-earthers because despite the overwhelming evidence, both groups come up with new arguements to circumvent reality. I remember a few years ago when John MacArthur published his grand work of fiction - Strange Fire - and several prominent Charismatic scholars wrote books, with overwhelming Biblical, and historic eviden...

My new favorite place in Wales is Soar y Mynydd. I have been up there several times to pray for Revival. As with many beautiful locations, the journey is part of the adventure. Just as you exit Llandovery you turn right and drive up the valley for thirty minutes, until you reach Soar y Mynydd. The joy I feel is amazing. The sounds of trees whooshing as they play with the wind, the gurgling bubbling chatter of streams and rivers as they make their way to wherever they are going, is music to the ears. Even the grass hisses as the wind blows between her blades. During my first visit I saw many trees that had been snapped by strong winds. I personally do not remember ever seeing damage to forests like this in Wales. I had seen it many times in the Midwest of America because of Tornados. So, seeing these trees snapped by wind has stuck with me. I have already written that I feel it is a symbol of the stiff relgious orders in Wales being broken, like Hezekiah broke the Asherah poles, "H...

I found this photo on Facebook the other day. It is a photo of a familiar spot on the mountain road between Ponsticill and Talybont. I have spent much time at this location. On one occasion my friend, Tefion, almost fell off the edge of the lower waterfall, whilst we were there at night. When I saw this photo I stopped and looked at it for a few minutes. I love the perspective of the waterfalls and trees in light of the mountain behind. One other image that is burned into my memory, is from another night time hike I did with my friend, Teifion, up from the Storey Arms to Corn Du. I have been up Corn Du and Pen-y-Fan in all weathers and seasons, but this one night will stay with me forever. The moutains were covered in snow. There was not a cloud in the sky, and a billion stars watched us as we traversed the snow covered path. Tefion and I made our way up the pitch. On a sunny day this pitch is deceptively steep. It looks ok from a distance, but once your feet hit that last pitch leadin...
