This is a word I got in December. See if this fits.



Today is a good day! We have just come off a week of consecration. We sought the Lord concerning some things we needed to rid ourselves of. We also sought a word for the year. I got bits an pieces of it during those days. Here is what I believe He is saying so far: 2010 is the beginning of a new decade. 10 is the number establishment, 20 is double establishment. The Church as a whole is going to get established firmly in the… Continue

This is an article I ran across on-line in Charisma Magazine in the beginning of 2009. This is a now word for us today!

While our nation faces its toughest financial crisis since the Great Depression, the church is wandering in a wilderness of disturbing uncertainty. Ministries that enjoyed success two years ago are announcing layoffs. Some churches have been… Continue

I got a chance today to minister at a church that I was raised up in. It was an awesome word from the Lord and it was a blessing to those who received it. When you preach and someone is mad at the word, you know you did a good job.



After the service, I went to the office to cool off and get my stuff together. I then went back, had last words and dismissed the service. One of the mothers in the church, who was a relative of the pastor, motioned for me to follow her. At first, I… Continue

What we are doing now is getting ready for the great work He has for us to do. This month, we will begin a series of teaching on marriage and relationships. We are going through a group study on the Five Love Languages of Marriage and we will share with our online friends what we have learned. Also, tonight, we are beginning a new series of teaching on Blog Talk Radio on various topics ranging from Christian values to church government. We have two different broadcasts, one for marriage… Continue

Well, folks, I am out of the hospital. Got out today and feeling better. Just to let those know who don’t, back in 2005, I was diagnosed with Crohn's disease. Well, from time to time, I would get what they call “flare-ups”, which is nothing more than the disease causing pain and inflammation. I had one Saturday of last weekend and was rushed to the hospital by ambulance. I was admitted Sunday morning and they ran a few tests to see what was going on. The X-rays and the CT Scans showed that I… Continue

Well, I am in the hospital again! I came here on Saturday evening to
check to see if I was having a flare-up of the Crohn's. I woke up that
morning in pain and I thought I just had a sore stomach from something I
ate. I hurt from that morning to that evening!

Eventually, I got tired of hurting and had my wife call the ambulance to
bring me here to the hospital. Right now, they are checking me out to
see what's going on. So I will keep you all posted.

" I have not yet reached my goal, and I am not perfect. But Christ has taken hold of me. So I keep on running and struggling to take hold of the prize.

My friends, I don't feel that I have already arrived. But I forget what is behind, and I struggle for what is ahead. "
