For me personally, even though I know there is so much more, it is so awesome to feel fired up again and be around so much life.  To be able to enter into praise and worship and tangibly sense his presence again, in and of itself is worth it.  Hearing the teaching and wondering where in the world have I been.

Flesh is coming along better now; it seems like it’s been a long time since I have felt this free.  Concentrating on others, winning the lost, literally being a part of a ministry that actually has integrity!  What a breath of fresh air for someone to come from a place of the barren fig tree, to a place so abundant with fruit, and have the opportunity to be a part of it.  What a privilege and honor, there are no words.

I don’t believe I was ever part of a body that was truly equipping the saints for the work of the ministry.  My hope is to continue to press into Him, learn all I can, while I can.  So I can go where he wants me to go and do what he has ordained me to do thank you again for sowing into my life.   May God continue to richly bless this Ministry.  In His Love

Recently while helping in the GAT prayer line, a lady called and she was crying and said she had a problem with alcohol, her husband died, and she haven’t a relationship with her daughter in 15 years. She said that she was going to commit suicide that night. I listened with compassion to her, and then began ministering the Word of God, and my supervisor got involved and we led her to the Lord, and you could hear faith start to rise in her.

By the end of the call she was thanking us praising the Lord, and making plans for the next day, Hallelujah! Hope was renewed, joy was made full. Like pastor Rodney says her cup was filled. This was my first  time serving. This could have been my mother, or sister! There is a war going on, we are plucking people from hell into the kingdom. Thank you pastors, thank you Jesus for stretching me. –Jeff P.

This is my 1st time out with the “great awakening “ministry ! wow what an eye opener so many people were receptive to this simple yet powerful gospel script it really is so simple and easy to follow and i was not a bit embarrassed by reading from the card I had shard this good news with 10 people and 8 gave there life’s to the lord .

About 7:30 p.m. this evening, Jim S. and I were at the Phoenix Ranch market on 1602 E. Roosevelt St.  A lady by the name of Angie prayed to receive Jesus.  She had been hit by a squad car and 4 times was declared clinically dead.  God brought her through.  Her right eyes were totally shut for years.  I laid my hands on her and prayed for healing.  Jim was agreeing and God opened her eye.  All glory, honor, praise be to Jesus!  Hallelujah!  Also a man from Poland, one from Guatemala, and one from Barundi prayed to receive Christ.

I was walking to the parking meter discuraged that no one wanted to talk to me after an hour, and no my way, the Spirit said to me, “Talk to her.  I then said the first lines and said, ‘Has anyone told you that Jesus loves you and has a great plan for you?’  SHe then said, ‘No!’  I couldn’t believe what I just heard.  I was then able to show her that she was loved by a wonderful savior.  Through all this I also rededicated my life!

Just one missionary invests his full life in a remote area, and a whole clan is at last evangelized. Just one legislator stands for right, and a country is saved. Only 1 strong-willed and determined voter announces, “I stand against this evil,” and a community ramps up morally and changes its direction. And only 1 girl decided it was worth the chance to smash with custom and talk her mind, and a country was saved.

The Jews have been threatened with extermination. Evil Haman has influenced King Ahasuerus with his guarantees : “Because of this plan I have set up, it is possible for me to pour cash into your treasuries and for us to rid the land of these folks who won’t bow down and worship you as the king.” Though it pandered to the king’s pride, that plan had the makings of the worst sort of holocaust. In case you wonder what impact it had on the community, return to the last phrase in chapter three : “the town of Susa was in confusion.” That needed to be a major understatement.

While Haman and Ahasuerus sat over their drinks in the palace, the public rambled in confusion and puzzlement, particularly the Jews, not unlike those in the ghetto at Warsaw and other Western european scenes of horror in the latter ’30s and early ’40s. “What’s going on here?” “Why have those in authority ordered this?” “How much worse can things get?”.

What apprehension this struck in their hearts, what fear in their minds. “How are we able to continue?” “How are we able to fight this?” This was the law of the Medes and the Persians. When an edict was issued in that time, it was final.

No-one could change this plan, even the king, but definitely no Jew. Yet, in the middle of all this, God wasn’t sleeping.

In His sovereign plan, He determined that one individual would make the difference.

So deep, so extreme must be this respect for God’s holy presence that nobody was even to touch the mountain. The people were to attend on God to chat to Moses and hear the Lord’s words thru the Lord’s servant.

This story makes it clear that we reside in a day of pitifully shallow concepts of the Lord God. Some of today’s recent Christian music leaves the idea that God is our buddy—a great pal to have in a pinch. A movie star once announced of the Lord God, “He’s my enormous Father upstairs.” One pop song asks, “What if God were simply a slob like us?” That isn’t the biblical view of the Lord God. The Puritans, that thorough folk of old, possessed a solidly biblical idea of God.

Did you know why it’s so critical for us to recover such a deferential understanding? Because a shallow view of God leads to a shallow life. But hold God in profoundest respect, and it is remarkable how deep the roots of your non secular life grow. He’s the sole smart God, the Creator, the Maker, the sovereign Lord. He informs me what to do, and I haven’t any safe option but to do it.

We have but one directive, and that’s to do His will. We confirm that truth in our times with Him. He doesn’t bow to our hurried pace, but silently He waits for us to meet His demands. And after we slow down enough to meet Him, He is happy to add amazing non secular depth to our otherwise shallow lives. What’s been your idea of the Lord? Who is your God? Be truthful, now. Does He look anything like the God of Mount Sinai?

He did not see himself killing a wicked slave driver as much as courageously striking a blow for God’s folk. His problem? He dedicated himself to the will of Almighty God, but not to the God whose will it was. You and I will become so devoted to the will of Our Lord God, we will be able to be so driven by a blind sense of purpose, that we would coincidentally take matters into our own hands and leave God totally out of the loop. Was it not right to beat that Hebrew as he did? Actually .

But when Moses stepped in and started his very own Operation Deliverance, he was energised by the flesh, not the Spirit. How simply this will occur to good folk, to males and females with the highest motives and the best intentions. In your heart, you ache to be in front of a lecture room again. With all of your soul, you need to feel that lectern underneath your hands and the minds of those keen scholars soaking up your understanding.

And all of a sudden, allegedly out of the blue, a chance presents itself. But all of the while, God waits for you to find His counsel. If you act without discerning His timing, you’ll lose the grin of divine favor. You’ll actually sense that God has something for you to do in a certain area. But if you are not vigilant, if you are not daily humbling yourself before Him, looking for His face, discerning His timing, operating under the Spirit’s control, you will push and force your way prematurely into that place where God wanted you, but you won’t have arrived in his very own time.

God led the writer of Genesis to bare the truth about every area of Joseph’s colorful life. He permits us to see what the person was actually like within, even what he was thinking. We will sum it up in one sentence : his heart was humble before God. Why does the writer add these details? First, I believe he would like us to know that Joseph was monogamous. He did not fall into the mistake of polygamy, like so many surrounding him—even his very own family. He had one wife, and she bore him 2 boys.

2nd , and more important, the writer would like us to realize the importance found in the names of Joseph’s boys. In naming his boys as he did, Joseph announced brazenly that God had made him forget all his difficulties, even those in his pa’s household. Above and beyond that, God had made him successful in a place and in circumstances that had brought him nothing apart from difficulty.

It is really tantalizing to try and get vengeance on the Reubens and the Judahs and the Dans and the Mrs Potiphars from our past. To get back at people who have stung us and stripped us and hurt us with noxious deeds and foul words. Instead, we must give birth to a Manasseh.

Could it be that it is time to ask the Lord God to erase the stings in your memory? Only he will be able to do that. Then it’ll be time to go on to give birth to an Ephraim. To recollect how God has extravagantly sanctified us. Talk about a positive, attesting name : “God has made me fruitful.” But it does not stop there. With the plural ending, this word conveys the idea of double benefit—multiple blessings. It’s what we might call “superabundance.” And it was God who did it all.

I grin as I read this, because if anyone ought to had a miserable face, it should have been Joseph. They were there on an impulse of the Pharaoh and certainly wouldn’t be there forever. But Joseph had been charged by the chief executioner’s other half and did not know if he’d ever see the light of the day. But despite his very own circumstance, he spotted the predicament of these two men. When your heart is right, although the bottom could have dropped out of your life, it is extraordinary how delicate you may be to someone else in need.

Instead of asserting, “You think you have got a lot to gripe about, hear my story of woe. “Joseph expounded, “How come you are so sorrowful today, guys? What’s wrong?” I admit it could be saying the plain to ask this in a dungeon, but it shows Joseph’s capability to think beyond his very own immediate cares and wants to minister mercy to others.One of the beautiful things about the right perspective is that, with it, each day has sun. You do not have to have cloudless days for there to be sunlight days. Basically, it’s rather fantastic that Joseph would need to have anything to do with dreams.

The last time he did that, remember what happened? He told his siblings about his dreams and it was “Operation Pit City.” He wound up in an Egyptian slave market. It’ll show you an opportunity for ministry you never would have touched with a ten-foot pole.

When money is our objective for contentment, we must live in fear of losing it, which makes us paranoid and suspicious. When becoming a celebrity is our target, we become competitive lest others upstage us, which makes us envious. When power and influence drive us, we become self-serving and strong-willed, which makes us conceited. And when possessions become our god, we become materialistic, thinking enough is rarely enough, which makes us greedy.

All of these pursuits fly in the face of happiness and joy. Only Christ can satisfy, whether we have or don’t have, whether we are known or unknown, whether we live or die. And the excellent news is this : Death only sweetens the pie.

That alone will make you giggle again. The New Testament in Modem English, reads : “For living to me means simply ‘Christ,’ and if I die I should only gain more of him.”.
