When Jesus meets a need, there is an immediate response.  After days of extreme heat, our Lord came to Jacob’s well. This well was at the division of Samaritan land and Jewish land. If you have been outside today and felt the 100-degree weather, this is the way it was in Jesus time.

I know that many of you are hurting and wondering from where the relief will come from. My heart suffers to hear the stories of many who are unemployed, struggling with life and problems and bills.  It was not any easier for Jesus. What do to? A Samaritan woman came to drink water while Jesus was standing at the well. It is a situation impossible for Him to avoid. So our Lord asked her for a cup of water…

I do not know what He is asking of you lately. As for me,He is asking me for total commitment. He is asking me to travel and preach and give the gospel to every hungry heart I meet. He is asking me to take care of those He sends me. How about you?

PERHAPS IF YOU HAVE NOT HEARD FROM THE LORD LATELY IS BECAUSE YOU ARE TOO FAR AWAY TO HEAR. IS THAT SOMETHING YOU SHOULD CONSIDER?WHEN YOUR HEART IS AWAY FROM GOD, YOU BEGIN TO HEAR YOURSELF LOUDER THEN HIS VOICE.

This coming August 12-13-14, a man will be preaching at our Rekindle the Flame conference. His name is Boyd Byerly. You must hear him. There is faith in him. There is a cup of water in this man’s hands, and you will drink it!  It can change everything. THINK ABOUT IT!  It is not too late to register.  Come for a drink!

In my 45 years of serving the Lord, I have  been asking, why do people who support my ministry stay way from my conference…. I have been praying so the Lord will reveal to me the reason…

1- FEAR….perhaps, you want God to touch your life but you are afraid ON HOW HE IS GOING TO DO THIS.

2-The cost is not a factor. We charge $25 dollars a person for 3 days of ministry. However, the cost could be a factor as to total cost…..However, you know very well that the just live by faith and money should not be a problem.

3-SOME OF US ARE conscious that to relate to me will bring persecution from others, especially from people who are jealous of our success.  I want you to know that God will put blessings upon you for being persecuted for His name sake… There is nothing about this ministry that does not please God. We are for the renewal of the United Methodist Church and its leaders…REVIVAL!!!

4-Maybe you have never come to our Rekindle The Flame Conference because you have never been invited… Well, I am now inviting you to come! IT WILL BLESS YOUR LIFE LIKE YOU HAVE NEVER BEEN BLESSED!

5- United Methodist Minister Bishop Paul Lockman is coming from Brazil to preach, Benji Mallory, Rev. Boyd Byerly and others… I will be preaching twice… COME! IT’S TIME TO REGISTER-706-353-1546

This has been a Methodist church with 1000 members, but today it is starting all over again..Central Methodist Church in Belo Horizonte! The large, downtown sanctuary was filled with folks from all over the city.

We traveled from 1 in the afternoon to 10 at night, finally getting in this hotel close to the church… rested and got together for prayer… Ho! the Lord was about to do something supernatural….. I knew because we were praying early in the morning and the fire came into our room.

Boyd Byerly preaches as with fire in his body… over 1000 were present on Sunday morning. He began preaching on Psalm 67:1-2. “May God be gracious to us and bless us and make his face to shine upon us……v.6…Then the land will yield its harvest, and God , our God will bless us…

They began to come forward in dozens. We could not contain then in the altar area. I got them to come to stage area, under the large ceiling, where the pulpits are. They came and the Baptism of the Holy Spirit came up0n them… hundreds received the Holy Spirit and were blessed by God.

On Sunday night, after Mike sung a solo, I had to began to do deliverance. Asking them to sing and to cough and to jump and to lift their hands and they did….after Pastor Boyd preach a sermon on “Resisting the Holy Spirit”,  heaven broke loose. A young lady, in her 30′s came forward with depression…. sadness and no hope. I heard the Lord say to me to give her a bath of water… I did…. she received it and screaming to Jesus, was delivered and set free. She cried as if someone had died.. yes…. depression died that night…. and the Lord saved her soul.

What a wonderful day when we can cry in the presence of God.. Have you cried in the presence of God??

This year, the RTF Conference will bring many people from all walks of life to Athens, Georgia.. Pastor Boyd will come and preach to us again. You cannot miss these three days. Ask Jesus to provide for you a small hotel or a friend to stay with and share the cost. The Lord will bless you with fire….believe me….this year there will be fire like you have never seen before….there will be crying and joy and peace and healing for those coming….

This is the beginning of the week here in Brasil.. we are now waiting on two churches… and then to Juiz de Fora for 3 days of ministry into another large Methodist church…. ARE YOU PRAYING FOR US…..??? GOD IS MOVING IN POWER…. MANY SAVED….HEALED…. DELIVERED…. A lady came with a serious illness.. she began to jump in front of me and the illness left her.. she knew it was gone… I knew too.

This is a week of miracles… God is doing the imp0ssible… the impossible.. I can feel it in my bones…fire ….fire…fire..
