Dear Messengers:
Last Wednesday at MOA was awesome! God altered our worship mix to include No Longer Slaves by Zach Williams. Upon arrival at MOA, I reunited with the musician's doppelganger – Zach P. formerly with TCLI. Zach is currently at Life Rebuilders but prayed to resume outreach. 'God provides.' Mt 9:35-38 pierced my heart. 'Ask the Lord of the harvest, therefore, to send out workers into his harvest field.' Please pray.
This morning at Whole Woman's Health ['Abortion on your own terms.'] I encountered a homeless gentleman named Jason eviscerated by heroin withdrawal. Jason snarled 'You don't want to pray with me. There is no God.' He later returned to apologize; I shared Truth and Love. BOOM! The Holy Spirit poured out upon us. My brother sobbed 'When I saw you I was homicidal but today I found Jesus Christ.' Please pray.
1 Pet 4:11 If anyone speaks, they should do so as one who speaks the very words of God. If anyone serves, they should do so with the strength God provides, so that in all things God may be praised through Jesus Christ. To him be the glory and the power for ever and ever. Amen.
Jn 9:25 He replied, 'Whether he is a sinner or not, I don't know. One thing I do know. I was blind but now I see!'
Last Friday at the Minneapolis Jail was awesome! Stan waxed poetic about a beautiful, beloved bride. Stan's obvious Agape Love warmed our hearts – 'She is worth far more than rubies.'
[03/08/18] We encountered Cain, a troubled young man who evoked the Biblical namesake. Cain described horrific abuses as a child, death and despair – a family literally ripped apart by heroin.
[01/03/19] These men shared that Gabrielle [DJ's girlfriend] recently died from heroin overdose in Cain's arms. She died in a Church parking lot. We shared Truth and Love in precipitous balance – their anguish blurred only by our tears. Cain shouted 'God must have some purpose.' DJ's tears obscured a teardrop tattoo. He cried 'Some good must come from Gabrielle's death.' Gen 50:20 pierced my heart. I shared the full Gospel Message then quoted Jer 29:11-14. DJ shouted 'What must I do to be saved?' BOOM! The Holy Spirit thermonuclear exploded upon us. [Both men] fell trembling to the ground to be saved by Jesus Christ. Amen!
[07/19/19] We encountered a pleasant gentleman named Josh who shared 'my family was literally ripped apart by my heroin.' We read 'What must you abandon to worship the one true God? False beliefs and practices of the past? A relationship or an activity that does not honor God? Possessions that weigh heavy? A sin that blocks him from your sight? Or is God calling you to leave your home – or your comfort zone – to follow him to a new place?' [Excerpt from Tecarta Bible DOTD] I shared the full Gospel Message before Cain asked to speak. But Cain 'filled with the Holy Spirit' emulated Dr. David Gibbs Jr to preach. Acts 4:8-12 pierced my heart. I shared the Jesus Christ / life raft analogy then queried 'What would prevent you from surrendering your life to Jesus Christ right now?' Josh pleaded 'What must I do to be saved?' BOOM! The Holy Spirit reigned down upon us. Josh struggled from gunshot wounds to the ground to receive The Author of Life. 'Love God. Love people. Preach the Gospel. Make disciples.' [Firebase Movement] In Christ, Jason.
Act 3:14-16 You disowned the Holy and Righteous One and asked that a murderer be released to you. You killed the author of life, but God raised him from the dead. We are witnesses of this. By faith in the name of Jesus, this man whom you see and know was made strong. It is Jesus' name and the faith that comes through him that has completely healed him, as you can all see.
Our children are dying. I need your help to share Christ with the lost.
Dt 24:16 Parents are not to be put to death for their children, nor children put to death for their parents; each will die for their own sin.
