Brothers and sisters in Christ,

We are living in troubled days, and yet our Lord and Savior calls out to us. "Let not your heart be troubled; you believe in God, believe also in Me. In My Fathers house are many mansions; if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you. And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and receive you to Myself; that where I am, there you may be also." (John 14:1-4) This is the prayer and desire of our Lord's heart! In John 17:24, Jesus prayed, "Father, I desire that they also whom You gave Me may be with Me where I am, that they may behold My glory!" The Apostle Paul wrote to Titus and said, "We should live soberly, righteously, and godly in the present age, looking for the blessed hope and glorious appearing of our great God and Savior Jesus Christ!" (Titus 2:13) How said, that so many in our day have cast off hope! My son and I were driving the other day, and the Christian radio station was on. Whoever was speaking said, "We are not even sure if there is going to be a rapture of the church." We started talking to the radio!...So many are cutting things out of the Word, instead of believing the Word. In first Thessalonians 4:15-18, Paul writes, "This we say to you by the Word of the Lord, that we who are alive and remain until the coming of the Lord will by no means precede those who are asleep. For the Lord Himself will descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trumpet of God. And the dead in Christ will rise first. Then we who are alive and remain shall be caught up (Greek word "harpozo" ~ to carry off by force, to snatch out or away) together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air! And thus we shall always be with the Lord. Therefore comfort one another with these words." Hallelujah!!! Thank the Lord that He saves to the uttermost! He will come for His bride! One day, no one knows the day or the hour, but the cry will be heard! "Behold the Bridegroom cometh!!!" (Matthew 25:6)

At this very hour, there are so many souls in danger! They are on a slippery slope to destruction. They sad reality is, that satan has them blinded. They are dead in sin, and racing toward the lake of fire, but they think they are ok. But they are not! The Word of God warns, "The wicked shall be turned into hell, and all the nations that forget God!" (Psalm 9:17) The Word of God calls out to us today! "Awake to righteousness, and do not sin; for some have not the knowledge of God. I speak this to your shame." (1.Corinthians 15:34) We can't save anybody, but we have been called to Go and Sow the Good Seed of the Gospel of the glory of Christ! (2.Corinthians 4:3-6) God gives the increase! (1.Corinthians 3:6-8) Don't stop Going & Sowing, until we hear the trumpet blowing!!!

PRAISE THE LORD! On Friday night we were out in Jamestown spreading the Good Seed of the Word. We met a young lady sitting on the steps of a building. As we shared the Word with her, her heart was open to the Lord. She said, "I need Jesus to forgive my sin...I need to be saved." She confessed with her mouth the Lord Jesus, and believed in her heart that God has raised Him from the dead. She called on the name of the Lord to save her! (Romans 10:9-13) Praise the Lord!! Please pray for Ashante. "Being confident of this very thing, that He who has begun a good work in you will complete it until the day of Jesus Christ!" (Philippians 1:6)

PRAY FOR SOULS TO BE SAVED! As we share Christ through the week, we find many confused and disillusioned. Looking for love, looking for the next high, trying to fill the emptiness in their lives, but still so empty. I spoke with a police officer near the high school, who told me of the violence and trouble among the youth. Fighting and killing. One young lady told me that her mom had overdosed several times. The hour is urgent! People need the Lord! Pray that the Lord would open blind eyes, and turn hearts from darkness to light,...from the power of satan to God, that they may know forgiveness of sins...by faith in Christ Jesus our Lord! (Acts 26:13-18) Pray for the Seeds planted! Pray that the Lord would move upon hearts and bring brokenness over sin and of their need of the Savior! Pray for godly sorrow to work repentance!

REMEMBER! "The Lord is not slack concerning His promise, as some count slackness, but is longsuffering toward us, not willing that any should perish but that all should come to repentance. But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night." (2.Peter 3:9-14) "Awake, you who sleep, Arise from the dead, and Christ will give you light!...Redeeming the time, because the days are evil." (Ephesians 5:14-16)

Thank you for standing with us in prayer! We covet your prayers! May the Lord continue to strengthen you by His mighty power day by day as you live for His glory! Keep fighting the good fight of faith! Finish the race! Keep the faith! It's not in vain! The Lord Jesus is coming, and His reward is with Him!!! (1.Timothy 6:12, 2.Timothy 4:7-8, + Revelation 22:12-13)

May the Lord bless & keep you!
Until we see Jesus! Jude 20-25

Brothers and sisters in Christ,

Jesus calls out to you and to me in the midst of a troubled world. He calls out, "Come unto Me, all you who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest." (Matt.11:28)Thus says the Lord God, "In returning and rest you shall be saved; in quietness and confidence shall be your strength." (Isa.30:15)There are times of refreshing that come from the presence of the Lord! (Acts 3:19)Yet, all too often, we are too busy to come and draw near. We are like Peter and the other disciples toiling all night, and coming up with empty nets! (Luke 5:5, John 21:3) Jesus calls out, "Cast your net on the right side of the boat, and you will find some!"...So they cast in, and now they were not able to draw it in because of the multitude of fish. (John 21:6) They realized it was the Risen Lord! Peter jumped out of the boat and swam to shore! Then when they had come to land, they saw a fire of coals there, and fish laid on it, and bread. Jesus said to them, "Come and dine!" (John 21:9-12) All our striving, and all our toiling, we come up empty, like the disciples! Oh, how we need to tune our hearts to the Word of the Lord, and wait! He is the One who turns emptiness to fullness!

Are you weary? Heavy burdened? The Lord says, "Come!" "The everlasting God, the LORD, the Creator of the ends of the earth, neither faints nor is weary. His understanding is unsearchable! He gives power to the weak, and to those who have no might He increases strength! Even youths shall faint and be weary, and the young men shall utterly fall, but those who wait on the LORD shall renew their strength! They shall run and not be weary, they shall walk and not faint!" (Isa.40:28-31)

Yes! There is work to do! Yes! We have been called to GO, and work for the night is coming when no man can work! (John 9:4) Jesus said, "It was necessary for the Christ to suffer and to rise from the dead the third day, and that repentance and remission of sins should be preach in His name to all nations...and you are witnesses of these things!" BUT
WAIT!!! Don't go in your own strength! You will find yourself trying to run like an engine without gas and oil!! Impossible! Jesus said, "Without Me, you can do nothing!" (John 15:5) Jesus commanded them to "WAIT for the Promise of the Father!...You shall receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you, and you shall be witnesses to Me!" (Acts 1:4-8) We have it backwards! We try to do, do, do, without waiting on the Lord to be endued with power from on high!!! We need to be FILLED, before we can be SPILLED!!!  Oh, may the Lord teach us to wait!!! To wait on the Lord for wisdom, strength, guidance, boldness, renewal, revival....!!! ALL our fountains are in You!! "Oh, the depth of the riches both of the wisdom and knowledge of God! How unsearchable are His judgements and His ways past finding out! For who has known the mind of the LORD? Or who has become His counselor? Or who has first given to Him and it shall be repaid to him? For of Him and through Him and to Him are all things, to whom be glory forever! Amen!" (Rom.11:33-36)

It's time to return to the waiting room! It's time to learn to wait on the Lord! ..."They that wait on the LORD, shall renew their strength!!" (Isa.40:31)

Oh Church, let's return to the original recipe that was given by the Lord! (Isa.56:6-8, Matt.21:13)
"My house shall be called a house of prayer!" Let's get back to Acts 1:14, "These ALL continued with one accord in prayer and supplication!" Back to the Prayer Room! ~ The place of waiting on the Lord! Letting Him fill us up to overflowing, so He can spill us out for His glory!!!

May you be abundantly satisfied with the fullness of His house! May you drink from the River of His pleasures! (Psalm 36:7-10) "Let all who seek You rejoice and be glad in You! Let such as love Your salvation say continually, "The LORD be magnified!!" (Psalm 40:16)

Keep Burning and Shining for the glory of the Lamb!
Till we see JESUS! ~ Maranatha!
