Pastor Penn Clark centered his message on the workings of the Holy Spirit and conveyed the fact that in some cases simple ten second decisions can have a profound influence, both positive and negative, on one’s life. He illustrated the story in Genesis 25 of Jacob and Esau, explaining that Esau’s entire inheritance was lost because of one meal, one moment of weakness. In contrast, Penn mentioned the story of Rebekah in Genesis 24. Rebekah could not have foreseen that one small decision to humble herself and offer hospitality to a man sitting with his camels would have such a lasting impact on her life. Penn wove in numerous personal experiences he had in his life where quick decisions led to amazing works by the Holy Spirit through Penn’s life and through the lives of those around him.
