He must have a good testimony among those who are outside, lest he fall into reproach and the snare of the devil.
–1 Timothy 3:7 (NKJV)–

Draw near to God
and He will draw near to you. 
–James 4:8 (NKJV)–

¹⁴ Is anyone among you sick? Let him call for the elders of the church, and let them pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord. ¹⁵ And the prayer of faith will save the sick, and the Lord will raise him up. And if he has committed sins, he will be forgiven. ¹⁶ Confess your trespasses to one another, and pray for one another, that you may be healed. The effective, fervent prayer of a righteous man avails much. ¹⁷ Elijah was a man with a nature like ours, and he prayed earnestly that it would not rain; and it did not rain on the land for three years and six months. ¹⁸ And he prayed again, and the heaven gave rain, and the earth produced its fruit.
–James 5:14-18 (NKJV)–

¹⁸ When Simon saw that through the laying on of the apostles’ hands the Holy Spirit was given, he offered them money, ¹⁹ saying, “Give me this power also, that anyone on whom I lay hands may receive the Holy Spirit.” ²⁰ But Peter said to him, “Your money perish with you, because you thought that the gift of God could be purchased with money!”
–Acts 8:18-20 (NKJV)–

Can anyone hide himself in secret places,
So I shall not see him?” says the Lord;
“Do I not fill heaven and earth?” says the Lord.
–Jeremiah 23:24 (NKJV)–

In Your presence is fullness of joy.
–Psalm 16:11 (NKJV)–

¹² Since you are zealous for spiritual gifts, let it be for the edification of the church that you seek to excel. ¹³ Therefore let him who speaks in a tongue pray that he may interpret. ¹⁴ For if I pray in a tongue, my spirit prays, but my understanding is unfruitful. ¹⁵ What is the conclusion then? I will pray with the spirit, and I will also pray with the understanding. I will sing with the spirit, and I will also sing with the understanding.
–1 Corinthians 14:12-15 (NKJV)–

¹⁶ Rejoice evermore.
¹⁷ Pray without ceasing.
¹⁸ In every thing give thanks:
for this is the will of God
in Christ Jesus concerning you.
¹⁹ Quench not the Spirit.
²⁰ Despise not prophesyings.
²¹ Prove all things; hold fast that which is good.
–1 Thessalonians 5:16-21 (KJV)–

Around the year 1995, I had a short dream about a 12-year-old D. J. Tanner. I don’t remember any of the content of the dream; and it was very, very short. I didn’t know about the Holy Spirit speaking to people in their dreams back then. My family had no working theory of dreams other than that they apparently come from “people’s minds,” or from me just watching Full House a lot, or something. Now its 30 years later, and I think that I might have the interpretation of my dream–I think it means that Candace was chosen by God to be a witness for Jesus; and that she was on God’s mind that far back, at the very least. I challenge anyone to put me on a lie detector machine to verify that claim, because I’d be glad to do so. –J.B.
