History Reminder

World history & the bible share common purpose. Both record unchangable events to teach & give us wisdom for the future. ROM 15:4 in the bible says, "things written before, were written for our learning". Changing & ignoring history is social & spiritual suicide.

If we don't learn from history, we're destined to repeat it. Humans hearts are the same in all generations, sinful & needing God. Unfortunately, it looks like we're learning from history & the bible, that we've learned nothing from history & the bible. Look back & learn, look up and believe.

Scenes from Atlanta Georgia 6-2012

A mixed congregation of ages, nationalities, and colors

Happy pastor means a happy church

Right before Tucson Conference, I stopped in Atlanta Georgia for a few services with Ps James. It was a refreshing time, God visited and touched his people. 

This is family time

A personal encounter with Jesus

I like this picture...

God came in, we just let Him move

Father Ministry

It's humbling to think that God allows men to share his unique title "Father". That alone should make fathers day special. Fatherhood is the extension of Gods love, care, mercy & forgiveness to our children. Fathers day reminds us of our great duty.

The prodical son story really is the revelation of the fathers pain, patience, prayer & persistence to save his child. That's fatherhood.Fathers today must follow this example of the fathers care. Be strong & remember, children & adults both need their father.

Hope of Nations

Prov 14:34, "righteousness exalts a nation, but sin is a reproach.." God holds the future if the nations in his hands. How nations respond to God determines their rise or fall & effects the economy, morals, and overall national health. If a nation promotes what God condemns, that National sin backfires, brings reproach, and unravels the countries stability.

The hope of nations is not its democracy or its politics. The hope of nations is its churches shining the light of the gospel. The hope of nations is salvation of individuals, and a revival of Godliness based on Gods word. God created the nations for his purpose, and is not willing that any perish. National judgement is not Gods plan, its the inevitable course of unrepentant nations....from my conference message on Tueday night....

Norwich Retreat..Leicester Revival

I ended this U.K. trip in Coventry for a couples retreat, sponsored by the Norwich church, and 3 services in Leicester. The retreat in Coventry was outstanding. The Village Hotel did one of the finest jobs hosting I've ever seen. The seminars were filled with joy and conviction. One of the husbands said to me after the services, "you just don't know, this retreat has saved us as a couple". Thats what God can do in just a few services, when he is allowed access to our hearts.

Couples retreat, 60 couples attended

Hosts, Ps Paul & Penny Boddy

I always enjoy Leicester. Ps Brick is a joyful pastor, and that has shaped the attitude of his congregation. The folks is Leicester sing with such passion. The worship, and the special music was enough to lift anyone out of depression. Altars were filled with hungry saints seeking Gods help and direction. After Service we had a big fellowship with fine international cuisine. The church is growing spiritually as well as numerically. Its always good to revisit a church and see the happy faces of new believers. God is moving in Leicester.

FREE FROM SLAVERY

In scripture John 8:34 speaks of being a slave of sin. This slavery is not physical by chains & shackles, but mental & spiritual by deception. It's enjoying what God hates, watching it ruin your life & soul, and not being able to change.

Slavery can't be defeated until its acknowledged. Debt & materialism can be slavery to covetousness. Imorality is slavery to lust. Many are slaves to bitterness, anger & substance addiction. BUT, Gospel light exposes bondage, and Gospel grace breaks the chains. Jesus Saves!!!

U.K. REVIVAL IN NORTHAMPTON..HARROW

The first stop on this two week trip to England was the city of Northampton. As you can see many youth attended the services. I was so blessed to be able to preach the gospel to such on fire, hungry young people. I was also happy seeing young couples married and building their life Gods way. Many visitors came, and many souls were saved. Pastor Phil is moving the church forward in Gods plan for these last days. We had visitors for the services from the baby church in Wellingboro as well. It was an exciting time, and a fruitful revival.

Packed house Thursday night

Prayer above all

outstanding choir

time for the word

hearts touched

happy saints

Mr & Mrs Azile, Pastors

Harrow is a beautiful area in Middlesex. Pastor Henry pioneered the church from nothing, and has built an exciting, vibrant congregation. The average age of the members seems to be between 15-25. Many of the people I spoke to are still students. This is a powerful testimony for Christ, to see so many young students filled with the Holy Ghost. Each night when I gave the invitation, numbers of visitors came and received Jesus. God is moving in these churches. Ps Henry demonstrates what the christian world needs, families that will go into the world, and do a work for God.

A Special Outreach in Leicester City U.K.

While walking through the Leicester City Center in England today, I ran into this group of former Hindus, now born again Pentecostals. I stopped and listened as they preached, and powerfully testified about Jesus. It was very refreshing hearing the gospel preached by a group of people who once rejected the gospel.

I watched as the British public walked by. Many mocked, but many also stopped and listened as Christ was lifted up. Years ago England ruled India. The British brought India European culture, fine tea, and parliamentary government. Today, these Indian believers have come to call England back to the same faith, that they once introduced to India years ago. God has his witnesses all over the world faithfully declaring the hope of the gospel. Interesting, the east bringing the gospel to the west.

Time with Jesus...It's Important

Spiritual weakness & deficiency comes from a lack of time spent with God. Our life always becomes a replica of how & where we spend our time. We must resist distractions & diversions.Jesus disciples were identified as those who had "been with Jesus".

If we don't make time for God, nothing we do in life, can be identified as coming from Him. Evaluate life regularly, if its not showing marks of Christ, spend less time where you've been, and spend more time in Gods presence.

Music was great 

A HOLY GHOST SMACK DOWN, San Diego

I've tried to make San Diego a regular part of my schedule in the States. We have quite a number of churches in the area, and each visit blesses me. The Orosco's are doing a really fine job in South San Diego. Right away when I arrived, a few new people introduced themself, expecting to hear from God. All of the services had that old time revival feeling. Nothing fancy, just praises to Jesus, preaching, and praying the Devil off of peoples lives. God brought all of us under conviction during the services. Real power is not just miracles, but when God breaks through, and changes a life around.  Pastor Orosco kept saying each night, that God brought a word in season. No one but God can know where each person is, and bring a message that can speak to everyone at the same time. Every time I asked, "who wants to know Jesus", hands went up and souls got saved. It was also good having a few of the area pastors come for fellowship. Really good things are going on in San Diego.

TRUTH

In John 8:32, Jesus said "truth will set you free". This verse explains social & spiritual bondage. We live in a world of lies. Lies about God, the bible, love, and the consequences of sin, have society trapped.

As long as we believe lies, life seems normal. But when truth is discovered, we break free. It's not lies that ruin relationships, its the discovery of the truth. Bible truth reveals lies & liberates humanity. Love truth, face truth & receive truth. It hurts, but it heals.
