Untapped Potential!

Suppose your best friend informs you that he have just purchased a brand new car. A fast one.  After a little discussion, it’s revealed that his new car is the one shown below-the world’s fastest production car!

Bugatti Veyron Super Sport: 267 mph, 0-60 in 2.4 secs. Aluminum, Narrow Angle 8 Liter W16 Engine with 1200 hp, base price is $2,400,000.

With unbridled anticipation, you await the opportunity to experience the power of this incredible machine.  You climb in the passenger side, and hit the open road.  

As luck would have it, you find yourself stuck behind an elderly woman driving a Prius….ARGGGHHH!!!

Oh wait!  Here’s a half mile passing zone on a straight stretch, without another car in sight.  Finally!

What an unfortunate time to discover that your friend is uncomfortable with high speeds of any sort.

“Oh, it’s okay, I’m not in any hurry. 35 mph is just fine…”

What??!!!  Why did you just spend 2.4 million dollars on the world’s fastest car??

“Oh, I’m going to drive it to church every Sunday, I might use it to pick up groceries during the week as well.”

It’s capable of SOOOO much more than that! Open it up, and try that thing out!

The Supercomputer that is designed to track and analyze huge amounts of data, should be used as such.  This bad boy takes up an entire room!  NASA’s machine can track climate and weather patterns and changes from all over the entire world.

If you have access to it, don’t just play Free Cell, or Spider Solitaire…

God left Heaven’s splendor, wrapped Himself in flesh, came to Earth, suffered, bled, and died, so that you could have the Holy Ghost!  His Spirit living inside you!  

Isn’t it time that you accessed it, received it, and used it to its full potential?

Rom 14:17 KJV

(17)  For the kingdom of God is not meat and drink; but righteousness, and peace, and joy in the Holy Ghost.

Do you have the Holy Ghost?  Where is your peace?  Where is your Joy?  Where is the righteousness?  Untapped potential.

2 Tim. 1:7 KJV

(7)     For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind.

Our hunger and desire is to see the unbridled power of the Holy Ghost transforming lives in our community.

Will you join us in this mission?

Activate the Power!

A Wonderful First Service!

April 14th has come and gone, but will certainly not be forgotten for us, as it was the first church service for Power of God Pentecostal Church in Butler!

We're so thankful for everyone who was able to be a part of this, in many different ways!

Our sign:

Our room in the process of the remodel: 

Great helpers!

Starting to look like a church!

And now, it's time!

We'd love to have you join us!

Our First Service Date!

We're excited to be able to share the date of our first service! 

We will be having church on Saturday, April 14th, 2012, at 5:15 p.m.

Our location is on the corners of Birch and Church Streets, Butler.  Pictured is the front of our building-our entrance is in the back.

We hope to see you there!

Good News!

The birth of Jesus comes at a point in Israel’s history that is very troubling.  The God who has always spoken to them has been silent for some 400 years now.  They find themselves captive to the Romans.  They are oppressed by a heathen nation, and a spirit of depression seems to dominate their lives.  It is into this very dark and gloomy picture that Messiah steps.  Our Lord makes His way back to his hometown, and goes to church.  He asks for the Scriptures and begins to read.

Luke 4:18-19 GW

(18)  "The Spirit of the Lord is with me.  He has anointed me to tell the Good News to the poor.  He has sent me to announce forgiveness to the prisoners of sin and the restoring of sight to the blind, to forgive those who have been shattered by sin,

(19)  to announce the year of the Lord's favor."

Those that had waited a lifetime to see deliverance felt a rush of hope surge into their spirits!  The day that had just moments ago looked dark and foreboding, is suddenly bursting with bright anticipation!

I felt the icy grip of oppression when I first entered the city of Butler.  The effects and the hand of our adversary was evident.  I recognized that empty look of despair that gazed back at me.  The slouched walk of folks walking downtown was the effect of hopelessness.  Depression, addiction, loneliness and confusion seem to have ruled for a long time.

I heard a common theme in nearly every conversation that I held with believers.  “I’m hungry for more! I want to see the power of God revealed in our city!”

I’ve got great and refreshing news!  The same Spirit that resided in Jesus Christ, lives on today!  The Holy Ghost is STILL being poured out!  The Spirit of God is still delivering, setting free, comforting, and empowering!  The refreshing winds of revival are blowing in the city of Butler!  Seeds that have been planted for years are growing.  Prayers that have been offered for years are being answered!  The year of the Lord’s Favor is upon us!

“The Spirit of the Lord is with me.  He has anointed me to tell the Good News to the poor.  He has sent me to announce forgiveness to the prisoners of sin and the restoring of sight to the blind, to forgive those who have been shattered by sin, to announce the year of the Lord's favor."

Be encouraged today, the Holy Ghost is still changing lives!

The Beginning

Great needs.

An even greater God.

Two people who believe.

Over the past few years, Butler has been tugging at our hearts, and it feels like the Lord is telling us, "It's time."

We feel compelled by God to carry the Holy Ghost revival we are experiencing at Emanuel Apostolic Church in Titusville, PA, to the Butler Community.

We welcome you to join us in the journey!
