What God Has For Me - Is For Me!

Proverbs 16:20, NLT
"Whoever gives heed to instruction prospers, and blessed is he who trusts in the Lord."


First giving honor to God! To my Mother Martha. To my Wife Cheryl. To my Pastors Drs. Gary and Patricia Stern. To my good friend Dr. Mary Lacey, and to Bishop Dr. Jerry Herron, President of Open Arms Bible College and Seminary, and to each one of you! God bless you this morning.

I am humbled and grateful for the honors bestowed upon me this past weekend. I thank God for carrying me through the challenges of life. Everyday, I thank God for all that he has bestowed upon me. I use to walk around after receiving a blessing such as this waiting for the enemy to attack. After reading the story of Job, I realized that what God has for me is for me. I am not afraid to prosper in the Lord. I'm not worried about losing anything that God has for me. I have on the Armor of God! We are designed to be blessed by the Lord when we trust in Him.

I am now answering a calling on my life as a Pastor and lwith the support and guidance of my Pastors, Ministers, and Family I will work to build the Kingdom God. Oh God! Let them see you and not me in all that I do. I look to the challenges which are forth coming but greater is He that lives within me! In Christ all things are possible! I can not thank all of you enough for your prayers and support. Thank you God for using me! Thank you for allowing God to use me in your life. Keep me in your prayers as I will you! In Christ we serve! In Jesus’ name! Shabach Shalom!

“Truly Giving Thanks”

Monday, November 23, 2009 Colossians 3:17 “Whatever you do, whether in word or deed, do it all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through him.” Truly Giving Thanks! I hear people proclaim that they thank God for this and thank God for that and I often wonder do they really mean what they say? Do folk really thank God for waking up in the morning? Do folk truly thank God for use of their right mind? Do folk really praise Him they way he deserves to be praised? For me, I believe most people say it because it has become custom and ritual rather than meaningful. Evident by the way most folk who proclaim these things live their lives. Actions speak louder than words! Folk say they thank God yet they do not live for him. For example, ever seen an award show and a popular performer receives a Grammy. They often begin their acceptance remarks by saying “First, I give honor to God.” But the recording and video they performed represente

WAKE UP

Monday, October 12, 2009 Acts 12:5-11 5 Peter therefore was kept in prison: but prayer was made without ceasing of the church unto God for him. 6 And when Herod would have brought him forth, the same night Peter was sleeping between two soldiers, bound with two chains: and the keepers before the door kept the prison. 7 And, behold, the angel of the Lord came upon him, and a light shined in the prison: and he smote Peter on the side, and raised him up, saying, Arise up quickly. And his chains fell off from his hands. 8 And the angel said unto him, Gird thyself, and bind on thy sandals. And so he did. And he saith unto him, Cast thy garment about thee, and follow me. 9 And he went out, and followed him; and wist not that it was true which was done by the angel; but thought he saw a vision. 10 When they were past the first and the second ward, they came unto the iron gate that leadeth unto the city; which opened to them of his own accord: and they went out, and passed on

“SPEND - SPEND - SPEND”

ISAIAH 55:1-4 1 "Is anyone thirsty? Come and drink, even if you have no money! Come, take your choice of wine or milk, it's all free! 2 Why spend your money on food that does not give you strength? Why pay for food that does you no good? Listen to me, and you will eat what is good. You will enjoy the finest food. 3 "Come to me with your ears wide open. Listen and you will find life. I will make an everlasting covenant with you. I will give you all the unfailing love I promised to David. 4 See how I used him to display my power among the peoples. I made him a leader among the nations. I cannot believe what Christmas is turning into. Stores were open on Thanksgiving Day, Decorations were up in October! All of this in an effort to entice us to spend, spend, and spend! Yet there are people spiritually thirsty and dying of spiritually malnutrition. Nothing offered on sale can ever compare to what God has to offer us. SALVATION! People are out there looking for hap
