- More and more Christian leaders are facing an increased attack. The demands placed on them in ministry are already staggering, but when we add to that the spiritual doldrums of satanic attack and the sometimes, unbalanced expectation from people of their pastor the pressure becomes unbearable. Too many of God's servants are stepping away from their posts as a result. Vacant churches find is harder to fill pastoral positions because of a scarcity of available and viable candidates.
- You can be a co-laborer with the Lord today by praying for your pastor. Find a special way to be a blessing to them and shower them with encouragement in the same way you would appreciate it yourself!

A prophetic promise to hold on to:
(Given to Sharon at a
Pastor's Conference)
"I will give you skill and I will make you agile, swift with
the sword. Can you hear the sound of victorious battle being
waged? Pierce and cut off the bondage and the destroyer.
Sever the yoke that impales with brokenness and fear.
The fear of man has brought a paralyzed reaction to My
anointed. Making them irrelevant in much that they do. Some
have fallen for the lie. He who accused them has tried to
destroy them.
Make them to rise again! Tell them to take up their armor.
This time the battle will be different. The sound of the
Mighty One can be heard. Warrior of victory, one on one. You
will see the enemy is no match for Me. Rise up! Rise up!
Pick up the armor one more time. See you are Mine. . .
We've become aware of a tremendous movement in the Spirit to strengthen the pulpit in America. The Lord is pouring out His Spirit in a powerful and fresh way to lift His servants to a new level of victory and ministry.
The most difficult thing I have experienced since Rudi and I have been back out on the move having adventures in God, is to wind down after God moves in such a wonderful way. God is doing awesome things. We stand amazed at the works of His Mighty hands. He has done such powerful works in the lives of so many people that I stand back and watch Him in action. No man can do what God can do. He transforms a life that has been messed up for years, in a few seconds. What a Mighty God we serve. Rudi and I are having a blast doing what we love best and what we have been called to by The Holy Spirit! Obedience pays off. These past few weeks have been the best meetings we have experienced in a long time. Praise the Lord! The Holy Spirit is flowing in a fresh powerful way. The freedom we experience in the Spirit is a sure guarantee of the Divine Will of God we walk in. I love Him so much. How good it is to be loved by Him. It seems as if after each meeting Rudi and I ourselves are changed by every encounter of the Spirit of God on others lives. It's impossible not to be changed and transformed in such an atmosphere. As you stand and observe the power of God at work in others, you develop a greater awareness of the powerful love of God Our Father for us. Oh, how He delights to have an encounter with you.
I recently asked God why He did not touch all people in the same
capacity every time. He simply told me its because of lack of
expectancy and trust. This has now brought me to a place of
constant expectancy of His Supernatural Power and a deeper trust
in His Truth, His Holy Word! Let us confidently expect what our
Father God alone can give He is the Grantee, the Holy Spirit who
shall lead us into the whole Truth, Jesus Christ Our Lord. Amen
We are blessed to be set on the road to God’s destiny for us. We know that the Lord never makes mistakes His will is perfect so we rest in Him. The hard part is seeing the sadness of others as we share the news of our departure from the church in pursuit of God's full destiny for us. I never thought it would hurt so bad to see others saddened at the news. We are assured that God’s will is all we need to comply to. Obedience to His voice is better than sacrifice. We are taking another leap of faith, freefalling into grace to the unknown to where He directs and we follow His directions. Walking in faith never attracts a crowd. It’s always a solitary action scary at the most as well as blessed by God to the obedient. On June 1st we embark on our set course; exploring the realms of God’s infinite glory. What a privilege to be souring on wings as eagles. I will miss the comfort and security of the nest. There is so much more to acquire in the Spirit. I need to see and be all He desires for me to be. It’s time. Destiny awaits, glory awaits and challenges await us too. Great things we have not imagined to be possible; the wonderful things our God has in store for us. Praise His Name! Nesting season is over for us. It’s time to soar! I am thankful for all who think of us and pray for us as we embark on this spiritual adventure in Christ our Lord. The Lord always works in suddenlies with us. God is so good He always makes a way where there is no way. Suddenly we will see His glorious plan realized before our eyes.
Thanks for being a part. |
