What a Good God!

Well life just doesn’t get any better that this. Traveling and preaching this glorious gospel of our Lord and Savior. Words cannot express the gratefulness for those that cover us with their prayers, go out of their way to see that my family and I are comfortable. That give so we can do what Father called us to do, there is a blessing for them. God has some of the sweetest children and I love getting to met them here as well as overseas. We are running revival after revival, planning and preparing for the ministry and the little bit of work that God allows us to do for his kingdom. Trying by his Spirit to touch lives and see them transformed by the word and his good Holy Ghost. Some weird people slip around in the dark hunting ghosts and spirits, listening for any kind of noise. In realty they are playing with demons and evil spirits. Well come to the house of God and see and experience a real Spirit, that wants to change your life! That will comfort you, and help you each day that the Lord allows you to live. That can set you free to enjoy this journey we call life.
Well the folks in KY as well as VA sure know how to treat a preacher as well as have CHURCH. People say that God does not heal anymore, well as one preach friend say “He ani’t healing any less either”. One lady in the services had the fire of the Holy Ghost come upon her and said she had never felt anything like it. A preacher’s wife at that and 72 yrs young! He is proving himself to his people that are still hungry and willing to allow him to move in their lives as well as their bodies.
2 Chronicles 16:9 For the eyes of the Lord run to and fro throughout the whole earth to show Himself strong in the behalf of them whose heart is perfect toward him.
That word perfect means fully committed to him our God. We can learn much from this chapter of the bible. How a man was perfect or fully committed to God Almighty and was helped of the Lord. But he forgot God and leaned toward man and other sources. The condition of his heart was so bad, that God sent him a seer to reveal to him his sin and foolishness. He rejected the seer and his message and put him in jail. My friend if God allows His word, His Spirit, or His servant to come to us, there is a reason. Not to make us hurt or just to be cruel, but to bring correction to our lives. To aid and comfort as well as to bring about healing and wholeness in our spirit and life.
Psalm 103:13 Like a father pitieth his children, so the Lord pitieth them that fear him. 14) For he knoweth our frame; he remembereth that we dust.
We forget his compassion and concern for you. A lot of ministers forget this and want to tan their hides. How sad many times as I study his word, I will weep and see my own short comings and must repent, before I can walk before the people. I just want them (God’s people and wayward children) to know that he loves and does care and will move for them. Yes there will be some correction in our life, but to build us up and make vessels of honor fit for the master’s use. If we the body of Christ (there is only one body) can just come together and reap this last day harvest. Those that are lost and need God’s help to get out of the pit of sin and despair. To know joy (Romans 14:18) and to have peace, and just to be PLAIN HAPPY. Thank God it is there for whom so ever will. That means it belongs to you, me or whoever.

Special Note: If you need prayer for anything thing or if this is a blessing or if you would like to be a part of this ministry and the ongoing mission work, just email us for information on projects under way!

Great Things

The Lord is giving wonderful revivals and traveling mercy. On 7-27-09 getting home from an AWESOME revival crossing the mountains, it was so foggy crossing the Jellico mountain I thought I would have to turn around and go back. God was with me as I was making it home for out 35 wedding anniversary. We are so blessed to have lasted this long and Sister Robbie to have put up with me all these years. She said “I better be home on her birthday and our anniversary”. So many wife works against their husband and sharing them to come and go for God. He gave me a good one-the best!
Well God pour out his Spirit there in KY at the Corbin Christian Center COGMA with Pastor Jeff Sturdivant and the congregation there. We have new family and close bonds formed there (we love you all there).Will have photos posted later, hopefully you will be able to view a live service there later this month on the website (something new).

MISSIONARY”S HEART

Excuse Me I Am Doing Something!

Psalms 27:13 I had fainted, unless I had believed to see the goodness of the Lord in the land of the living
14) Wait on the Lord, and be of good courage, and he shall strengthen thine heart, wait I say on the Lord.

Wait= to remain in expectation, to stop or remain stationary until the arrival of some person or event; to rest in patience

My oldest daughter was around 3 or 4 years old and the city bus route came by our house. She wanted to ride the big bus. I told her fine and you would have thought she was going to a theme park. On the day of the big bus ride, we waited in front of our house. She played and looked up every little bit for the bus. She had no concerns or worries, because her father had said she was going on a bus ride. She was trusting her daddy’s word. When the bus arrived she just jumped on it and gave no thought that a fare had to be paid. She ran and found a seat and her Father paid the cost.
I believe this is the way we are to wait on God. Not to get all bent out of shape, tremble with fear, what if and so forth. If our Father promised it, then it shall surly come to pass. Habakkuk 2:3… though it tarry, wait for it; because it will surely come, it will not tarry. Now what do we do from the promise to the possession of the promise? From the time frame till it crosses from the spiritual realm to the natural realm. We wait with expectation, we remain stationary until the arrival and we rest in patience. May I say to someone it’s on its way just hold on! My daughter had no concerns- she believed what her earthly father said!
The enemy will try all sorts of things to get us ahead of God. Lets not forget Sarah and Abraham, when Sarah thought she could help the Lord out. There are some real befits in waiting for God. The enemy says you should be doing something WE ARE –WAITING ON GOD AND HIS PROMISE! I want to share two things that will not happen while your waiting on God. 1) You will not die; no matter how many times the enemy says so. Psalm33: 19 To deliver their soul from death, and to keep them alive in famine. 20) Our soul waiteth for the Lord: he is our help and shield. God is going to sustain us in this famine, where everyone else is getting blessed. It seem as if nothing is going to work out for us. God will not let us die; he is our help and shield.The 2nd) thing that’s not going to happen is we are going to become weak and fail! The text said he would strengthen thine heart, and God is not a man that he should lie. AMEN. We are not dying or weak or failing God, but trusting him, believing him. Oh for the perfect timing of the Almighty God. Not my timing or your timing, but God’s. He does not watch a clock like you and I. Remember he has his own timetable, a 1,000 years is but one day with the Lord. When we look at it like that we not been waiting that long. So many of us are in a transition period. We are not where we were; yet at the same time we are not where we are going. So we must wait upon the Lord Isaiah 40:31. David the writer of our text knew what it was to wait upon the Lord. God uses times of waiting to refresh, renew and teach us. Make good of your waiting times by discovering what God may be trying to teach us in them. Remember His plan may just be bigger that we can comprehend; I know it was for my life.

GO FORWARD!

Ezekiel 1:12 And they went every one straight forward: wither the SPIRIT was to go, they turned not when they went.

Forward web. Toward a part or place before or in front; onward; progressively; opposed to be backward, Go forward; move forward.

We want to go forward in life, career and relationships. We forget we are to be moving forward in our spiritual walk. The church and when I say church not meaning a group of people but the body of Christ. As a whole are to be progressing forward. Sad to say that the whole is much like the individual and it is not advancing or going forward either. Some or many will disagree but we are the Laodiceans church neither hot nor cold, just lukewarm. Oh there is a lot of noise and even some zeal for a season. Most are after there own kingdom rather than the Lord’s. I read my Bebo profile written in 07 and stopped and just thought about the pain and scares I have received since then. Talked about and people you never thought would turn against you-have. Lied upon to discredit this ministry and me and never think to apologize, but rather pretend it never happen! Yet I still go forward, pressing toward the mark. In the text the living creatures, 4 of them moved as one unit by the SPIRIT. This is the way the church or body of Christ is to go. STRAIGHT FORWARD and TURN NOT. They are to look not back, they turned not out of the way, and they gave not over till they had completed their course.
2 Timothy 4:7 I have fought a good fight, I have finished my course, I have kept the faith.
One good thing about God when you realize you have left the course, he allows u-turns. Amen. The body of Christ has to many chiefs and no Indians as the old saying goes. All want to lead when in fact they are not leadership material. They are novice (1 Timothy 3:6) and are doing more damage to the body of Christ than building of it. They have turned out of the way without finishing the course that God had for them. When is the body coming into the hour that Isaiah spoke of?
Isaiah 52:8 Thy watchman shall lift up the voice; with the voice together shall they sing: for they shall see eye to eye, when the lord shall bring Zion.
The evangelist and apostles, as well as the gospel ministers of the last days. The watchman sounding the notice of approaching danger. Singing together in harmony and unity. We have lost our way and our course and taken our own rather than God’s. Being lead of flesh rather than Spirit as it should be. There is much work to do in these last weeks, days and minutes of time. Souls must be warned of approaching danger of being lost without God! This is more important than yours or my feelings (oh boo-woo baby). It’s time to grow up and go forward, no matter the cost. We cannot give up this close to the prize, we must go forward. The enemy has come and is present but we must move as the SPIRIT LEADS and it is leading FORWARD!

SPECIAL NOTE: I just want to thank all who have contacted the ministry with your emails and letters. To those being blessed by the website and CD’S given away for the asking. Below is a portion of one email.

Thank-you so much for the CDs. Would it be alright if I made copies to give out? I got a friend over here that NEEDS to hear this preaching. Man, you don't hear preaching like this anymore, it's ol timey, rock solid on point preachin. Now the preachin is so decorated, ya know? Give me preaching like an arrow, straight at the heart, God-speaking through a man to men.
It was an encouragement brother to hear this word, it gives me more confidence to step out bolder in my anointing.
Mike in Texas.

Also the Charity Kingdom Orphanage was extended to July 09 there in Accra, Ghana and is staying in a hallway and we continue to raise the money for the re-location, anything marked Africa will be wired to them-God is moving & God Bless You for those that have given!

Running For The Master

Thank God for his mercy and grace. I am up and traveling once again for the Lord. Lord willing I am to be traveling close to 3,ooo miles for him running revivals. We have gone trough some deep valleys, but we were only passing through! Psalms 84:6 Who passing through the valley of Baca make it a well; the rain also filleth the pools.7)They go from strength to strength...
The word Baca is valley of tears or weeping. It would take a lot of tears to fill a well.Verse 7 means that when we pray and weep before God we will go from strength to strength. I thank God for those that prayed and help carry me through the valley of Baca. For the real family of God who loved me and checked on me to see if I was alright. It has not been easy, but by the grace of God I passed THROUGH and God did not say we have to live there. Hold on to that unchanging hand, he will never let go. It's good to crawl into daddy,s lap and weep and let Him hold you and whisper in your spirit "it's going to be alright, your just passing through". There are yet more mountains to climb, miracles to behold. Souls to be brought into the kingdom, more work that must be done. Webster says the word THROUGH means into one side and out at the other side of. So my brother and my sister, there is the other side of what you have enter. Oh you may not see it or feel it but it there just ahead of you. Keep praying and weeping, because strength is coming to you, more strength. The words says your not losing- the devil does, your gaining every day, your coming closer to your reward. Keep pressing toward the prize... it's just ahead. Much love to all who have prayed and given to the ministry to keep it going. There were days I felt sorry for myself as friends let me down, and the enemy came every day to visit and tell me it was over, oh if we were as faithful as the old enemy. Remember close to 3,000 miles just this month alone, as I have made it to the other side and you will to in Jesus's name!
