The Gathering Storm!

[Henry & Vera Epps]

The year 2009 was a year of preparation and birth pains of new growth! This has been a challenging year for the saints of God, and many are anticipating great things from the Lord in 2010. We as a body of believers have began to compromie with the word of God, for the spirit of religion, power, money, and sex has decimated many ministries. To many christians are focusing their attention on the false prosperity message of mammon and baal and they have shut the mouth of the Holy Spirit. Many ministries are operating like corporations and they have completely shut out the Holy Spirit from sunday morning worship. So call leaders are relying on gimmicks and quick phrases to keep the people attention. Enough! Enough of all of this human endeavors, and we must humble ourselves in prayer and repent of our weak human endeavors. We must learn to build people up and not tear them down. The church is built on Love, Faith, and Hope! Jesus last command was for us to love God, and then love our neighbor. As this year prepares to end, where is your love walk? It is time for a reality check! Who do you serve?
