Pastors Notes
If you were not here Sunday, YOU JUST PLAIN MISSED IT! What an awesome move of God Sunday morning. We pressed in and gave the Lord HIGH PRAISE & WORSHIP and HE LOVED IT! Twice, the Holy Ghost spoke to us and told us that He desired our worship. Here are the interpretations of the messages given: IT IS TIME FOR THE SEPARATION OF THE WHEAT FROM THE CHAFF. I AM COMING FOR A CHURCH WHO WILL WORSHIP ME. I AM COMING FOR A PEOPLE WHO WILL PRAISE ME. WILL YOU WAIT AND WATCH THIS GENERATION PERISH, OR WILL YOU BE WHAT I HAVE CALLED YOU TO BE, DO WHAT I HAVE CALLED YOU TO DO? I TELL YOU OF A FACT THAT PERILOUS TIMES ARE HERE, AND NOT JUST COMING. YOU ARE LIVING IN A DAY WHEN THESE THINGS COME TO PASS. BE READY. BE READY. BE READY, FOR YOU LIVE IN A DAY WHEN THE WOLVES RUN THROUGHOUT THE LAND TO DEVOUR WHOMEVER THEY WILL. BE READY, BE READY FOR I AM COMING. THE DAY IS AT HAND, SAITH THE LORD. I AM THE LIVING GOD. I AM FROM EVER TO EVER. THERE IS NO BEGINNING, AND THERE IS NO END TO ME. I DESIRE THE WORSHIP AND THE PRAISE OF MY PEOPLE. I WANT YOU TO PRAISE ME. I WANT YOU TO WORSHIP ME AND PUT NO OTHER GODS BEFORE ME. STAY CLOSE TO ME. WORSHIP ME. BE READY FOR I AM COMING FOR A PEOPLOE THAT IS WORSHIPPING ME. LIVE THE LIFE THAT I HAVE CHOSEN FOR YOU AND THE PATHWAY I HAVE CHOSEN FOR YOU TO TAKE. I AM ALWAYS ON HAND FOR MY PEOPLE. I just want to encourage you..worship the Lord! The Lords coming is at hand. We do not know the time nor the season, but it is coming soon. Until then, the Lord has told us that we need to Worship & Work. I am so ready for a great move of God. Im believing that this is the year of FULFILLMENT! Im believing that God will honor His Word to us and will also honor our efforts of prayer & fasting!
