You Have Fire on Your Head

This testimony was dictated to me on Tuesday, January 8, 2013 by Cliff Bouwell:
"I want to give a testimony of what I felt and what happened to me this past Sunday, January 6, 2013. My family and I went to New Life Church; when we got there, the congregation was already worshiping and we sat on the back pew. As we were worshiping I started praying for the Holy Spirit to come down on my wife that she may be able to feel the presence of the Holy Spirit. I was praying in tongues while everybody was worshiping. Pastor Bob Clanton began his sermon on imaginations. He mentioned that imaginations appear nine times in the Bible. Seven of them were bad and two were good. At the end of the service when the invitation was given, there were graphics on the overhead screen. This morning the graphics were clouds that were gray with stars in the background and they were coming at you. I began to focus myself on the clouds and what I was seeing and then focused on what was going on around me. At this time everything stopped that was going on around me. As I continued to focus on the clouds, in my imagination I was chasing after the Holy Spirit. I was trying to picture the Holy Spirit. I wanted to use my imagination for good. As I was doing this I went out of it and I don't know how long a time that it was. I didn't remember anything that was going on or what was happening in the room. I didn't see anything or hear anything, I was just focused on the screen. I felt like I was flowing face first into this atmosphere. As I began to be lifted up into this atmosphere I felt heat on my head, shoulders and chest. This burning was not hurting me, it felt good. This burning seems to numb my senses. Then the next thing that happened was I began to hear someone shouting my name. I somewhat snapped out of where I was. I didn't move but my eyes started roaming around wondering what had just happened. I began to ask myself, “Where have you been, what's going on.” As I looked, Pastor Bob Clanton was looking at me and pointing at me. With a loud voice he said, “Cliff, I don't want to embarrass you or call you out, but you look like your own fire. There is a fire above your head!” As I looked at Bob, I was wondering how he knows what I am feeling right now. At this point I started to cry and I didn’t take my eyes off Pastor Bob. Then I began to notice that everyone was looking at me and clapping their hands and rejoicing. My mind could not fathom what had just happened. Bob started speaking over me, but I couldn't understand what Bob was saying because my mind was still trying to figure out what was going on. Bob ended the service and as I was leaving, moving slowly, Pastor Bob ran up to me and grabs me and says, “I'm sorry that I called you out like that, but I had to say something.” I asked him how he knew what I was feeling. I felt like I was on fire; my head, shoulders and chest. How did he know that? Bob replied, “God has something for you.” That awe struck feeling stayed with me the rest of the day. When that happens it starts a hunger inside of you that you won’t relinquish. When this happens you chase after it because of the hunger inside. I have had three experiences like this and they are faith building. It is exciting and my wife sees it in me and she needs it and wants it. I believe that this is what God is wanting and what we will see in the future. Amen!
