In another thread you mentioned when revival broke out in Denny's. I just wanted to say that I was there for that and it was an awesome occurrence. It even resulted in an COGOP overseer's son giving his heart back to the Lord. I will never forget that event. I may have some differences theologically with TCOG, but we serve the same Lord, and are indwelt by the Same Spirit. What a marvelous outpouring of that Spirit took place in that Denny's that night.

I would to God that such would happen more frequently in all our lives. That was truly an episode of the kind of experiences we read about in Acts.

Dear Lord,

Help me to be good. With such an encouraging post, I hate to post what I've seen in Denny's, but Lord with your help I can refrain. :lol:

I thought I got saw a blue haze in the Denny's in Macon one time, but it turned out that KBEvangelist's digestive tract was objecting to the Grand Slam Breakfast.

To clique or not to clique, that is the question.

It was the greatest thing i hav ever seen. Some of us went to dennys after BTI service one night and ther was at least 20 people and we ate and a brother from another country just went and brough in a guitar and people started to sing, the Lord just moved through that place and the waitress was crying, the cooks, guest were requesting songs and a good portion of the dennys was blocked by the service/revival that just broke loose and I saw a guy that looked likie a biker crying on the table and went atalked with him and prayed with him and he was saved, just happen to be visiting from va beach just as i was. The other guy was crying and started to leave but came back and got saved and sanctified and others as well it was wonderful. Great things can happen when we obey the lord..

That is where I met poimen 7 years ago........this went on for a long time and so much was accomplished and people were not complaining but allowing the Lord to jsut bless. Just imagine going to eat at dennys and revival breaks loose and you get convicted and saved, amazing. Thank you Brother for responding to this in a post good memories

Wow! Pastor Don can probably share the details better, but a similar thing happened to us on our charter trip to the Washington for Jesus (Promise Keepers) event back in the 90's. We were at a Cracker Barrel in VA I believe. Men from several charter buses were singing worship choruses in the restaurant. There was conviction flowing. Our bus ended up receiving an offering for a waitress who was pregnant and in need. It was awesome, but the entire trip was like this.

I remember walking along the streets of D.C. and overhearing three prostitutes talking. One stated, "Wouldn't you know it?! We are among a million men and they all have to be Christian." :lol:

Yes. I remember it well. I was having a semi serious conversation with Sister Lorrie from VA. There was a man in the back booth whom Sister Bonnie Barnett really felt led to witness too, but was to scared to go over alone. She asked me to go for and with her. I hesitated, but relented to go. The man came under conviction and eventually gave his heart to the Lord right there in his booth at Denny's. About that time Brother Timatao went out and came back in with his guitar and the singing started on the other side of the eating area. God was literally working on "both ends." Then it happened, something changed in that place, a unity fell, the presence of the Lord filled that place. The management just backed up and said as long as no one was getting hurt to let them have their way. This literally went on for hours -- public worship, singing, powerful vocal prayers, and witnessing to and praying with lost souls who came into Denny's to eat.

Not a complaint one was brought to our attention until the move of the Spirit began to dissipate and we begin to finally leave that almost heavenly place. It was most definitely a God thing.

I have never experienced anything like it before or since. It was really like something taken right out of the book of Acts.

I could not have worded that better, i have pictures of that night. It changed my way of thinking forever. When God is ready to move and we are obedient mountains move......Thank you Brother for Bringing these details back to memory I will be thinking of this all day, Praisew the Lord.

Sis. Lorie just visited our home in Va Beach the other week with her husband Mike, good people.

My husband was there! Did you see him? :lol:

Actually, since Sam is so tall they used him as a marker to help locate the rest of the group when they separated.
