Praise the Lord
“Take it! That’s the power of the Holy Ghost!”
“I say, praise the Lord!” The young preacher shouted at his congregation.
“Say it again! Praise. The. LORD!”
His flock applauded and stood up in agreement as the music ministry started playing a funky tune. Everyone started clapping and raising their hands in praise of God.
“OK, everyone, can’t ya feel it? That’s the Holy Ghost! Come on, sing his praises, Alleluia! Shout for joy!”
People closed their eyes and uttered joyful and spontaneous phrases that they read in the Holy Bible. They clapped off beat and sang off key and inside the mega-church, there was a single mother, Gloria, and her little daughter, Odessa.
Odessa sat in the pew all the way in the nose bleeds sitting on the bench and pondering what she was seeing in the auditorium church. Gloria sat down next to her, closed her eyes, and prayed silently.
Looking around at the flock, the little girl then looked down at the pastor, his microphone wrapped around his massive bald and shiny head. He danced and lifted his arms in a strange and rapid style.
“Come on! I say again, Praise the Lord! With ALL your might! Give glory and praise to him forever!”
