Patience (With one another)

We are having a wonderful time studying the ‘Stature of A Perfect Man’ as spoken of in Ephesians 4 and II Peter 1. In focusing on the virtue of patience, Bro. Branham mention that we needed to have patience to wait on God just as Abraham, Noah, Moses, Daniel, Paul, The Pentecostals in the upper room, and the 3 Hebrew boys did. He also brought to our attention that we should have patience one for the other. In thinking on that, I considered the following quote and thought I would share it with you.

Strengthen The Inner Man

Paul spoke the following in Ephesians 3:16: That he would grant you, according to the riches of his glory, to be strengthened with might by his Spirit in the inner man; We enjoyed a really good series on strengthening the Inner Man. While walking though this subject we used the chart on Body, Spirit, and Soul. This helped to clarify the inner man that lays in the realm of the soul. The inner man is controlled by doubt or faith. What a journey we had, but how we all desire the reality of what we learned. It was a really…

Abundance of Rain

I KINGS 18:41 And Elijah said unto Ahab, Get thee up, eat and drink; for there is a sound of abundance of rain. We have been encouraged as of late. We have heard of many testimonies of how God has visited and is visiting His people. We have baptized many in water and look to see the fulfilling of scripture which also promises the baptism of the Holy Ghost. The promise is unto us and to our children and those that are afar off, as many as the Lord our God shall call. We should live under expectation for a…

Delivered – House of Hell Give Way

We were blessed by a message Bro. Caleb Wesco preached entitled “This Current Giant”. He provided a quote that I felt was worth sharing. I realize there are saints who are bound by giants just as Israel was stuck when Goliath would make his boasts. Often times we do not choose to be bound. Life has a way of presenting circumstances that bring us into bondage and at times misunderstandings can lead to walls of division, which also lead to bondage. If you feel this is for you, then know that you can be delivered. You may feel you cannot…

Stammering Lips

My heart is thrilled as I anxiously anticipate a move of the spirit of God in our church. We have focused our attention as of late on ‘What Is The Holy Ghost’. Our journey has led us through a number of scriptures which provide a basis for our expectations. One of those scriptures is found in Acts chapter 2 and verse 39. It states, “For the promise is unto you, and to your children, and to all that are afar off, even as many as the Lord our God shall call.” That includes you, if you will mix your faith…

We have an Advocate

I JOHN 2:1-2 1 My little children, these things write I unto you, that ye sin not. And if any man sin, we have an advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous: 2 And he is the propitiation for our sins: and not for ours only, but also for the sins of the whole world. An advocate is one who stands in your stead. An advocate is also considered a comforter. Jesus spoke that the Comforter would come and bring all things to our remembrance. We are all guilty of sin before God, but Jesus is our advocate. He…

God will bring thee into judgement

ECCLESIASTES 11:9 Rejoice, O young man, in thy youth; and let thy heart cheer thee in the days of thy youth, and walk in the ways of thine heart, and in the sight of thine eyes: but know thou, that for all these things God will bring thee into judgment. After reading this scripture a few days ago I was inspired to reach out to every son and daughter of God. The enemy attempts to blind us as we pursue the desires of our own hearts. We must be ever so careful for someday we will meet the living God.…

Seven Compound Names of Jehovah

God’s attitude towards His people since the Garden of Eden, has been wrapped in the seven redemptive names. The fall itself unlocked the attributes that were bottled up in our God. He is  Jehovah Rohi, Jehovah Jireh, Jehovah Shalom, Jehovah Rapha, Jehovah Tsidkenu, Jehovah Shammah and Jehovah Nissi. If He is your shepherd, then He is also your provider, your peace, your healer, and your righteousness. He is ever present, therefore He will be your banner of protection in the midst of your storm. Remember, He can’t be one without being the others.  If he has expressed Himself to you in either of…

Potential In The Seed

The Lord has been speaking to our hearts in a rather simple manner. As we have learned from God’s prophet, God is hidden and revealed in simplicity. When looking at seed, after peeling a nice mango, one might think the end has come. You have enjoyed the mango and now you have a useless seed. However, if planted and placed in the right atmosphere, that seed can produce other mangos. It may take some time, but it will reproduce as that is one of God’s laws as written in the following scripture. GENESIS 1:11 And God said, Let the earth…

Go Home and Be Well

I would like to share my testimony. I was diagnosed with diabetes a few years ago, but I never accepted the package that the enemy sent to my address. I rejected it and demanded that they return this sickness to the sender. While visiting Zimbabwe in March, I was really encouraged after speaking with a brother who had a ministry to pray for the sick. Though I have continuously battled this attack of the enemy, I listened intently to the testimonies from my precious brother and I asked that he pray for me before I left Zimbabwe. We walked into…
