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!

Put All Your Trust In God!

Do nothing out of selfish ambition or vain conceit, but in humility consider others better than yourselves. Each of you should look not only to your own interests, but also to the interest of others. --Philippians 2:3-4 This past week, God blessed me to minister to my older sister in New Jersey. She called me because of a business deal that had not gone the way she had hoped. In short, a friend under cut the deal and gained the property in their own interest. For those who do not know my sister, she epitomizes this week's scripture. She is a wonderful person with a free and giving spirit. Over the years, I have and watched as she would give loans to family and friends many of these loans were never repaid. I can not recall one single instant where she has every asked for money back that she has given to me. She elected to stay in New Jersey to be close to our Mother, while the rest of us moved on and out of Newark, N.J. and til this day, I have never heard her complain or voice an...

CHRISTMAS, A TIME OF GIVING!

May Jesus, the One who came for us, be the One who brings you and yours the joys of His incredible love! Jesus was given to us as the perfect gift! Merry CHRISTMAS! Isaiah 9:6 “ For to us a child is born, to us a son is given, and the government will be on his shoulders. And he will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, and Prince of Peace. ” “Giving frees us from the familiar territory of our own needs by opening our mind to the unexplained worlds occupied by the needs of others.” Barbara Bush Let us pray… FATHER WE THANK YOU FOR THAT PORTION OF THE SCRIPTURES WHICH REVEALS TO US YOUR WILL AND YOUR WAY FOR OUR GOOD AND HAPPY LIFE ON EARTH. WE CELEBRATE CHRISTMAS, WHICH WAS YOUR PERFECT GIFT TO US, AND TO THIS DAY YOU CONTINUE TO GIVE US GIFTS OF THE HOLY SPIRIT; THAT WE MAY UNDERSTAND MORE ABOUT YOUR WORD AND HOW WE CAN FOLLOW YOUR TEACHINGS IN THIS MODERN WORLD. GOD HELP TO KEEP OUR HEARTS AND OUR MINDS AND OUR EYES FIXED FIRMLY ON YOU. SO, THAT IT MAY L...

My Grace is Sufficient

2 Corinthians 12:7-9 7To keep me from becoming conceited because of these surprisingly great revelations, there was given me a thorn in my flesh, a messenger of Satan, to torment me. 8Three times I pleaded with the Lord to take it away from me. 9But he said to me, "My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness." Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ's power may rest on me. We can't deny that there is suffering and tragedy in the world, suffering that is so often incomprehensible to us. We can look on a global scale, and see children being slaughtered for no good reason--or for any reason at all. In Iraq thousands of innocent people are being terrorized and tormented in the name of Islam. We can look on a national scale, and see friends and relatives of the victims of hurricane Katrina still trying to put their lives back together. And, most importantly, we can look on a PERSONAL level, and see our own...
