Dear Christian Believers,
Greetings and God bless you in the powerful name of Jesus
Christ.
I'm sitting here this morning
wondering how I can ever really communicate the events
that took place during the taping of "Ministering
With God's Power," and Family Reunion
2004 . After the first two hours of teaching
I asked Wayne, "how are we going to keep the level
of teaching as hot as the first two hours", because
they were so high. My concern left me as we continued
to teach session after session. Throughout the week and
the weekend, Wayne and I were either in a teaching session
or were meeting with people to minister healing and deliverance.
Romans 10:17 says ... "So
faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God."
We taught and preached and the people came
forth to receive healing. That is what we see happening
over and over again in the gospels, Jesus would teach
and preach, and the people would come to him to receive
their healing no matter what it was. The theme verse for
"Ministering With God's Power" were
taken from;
1 Peter 4:10
As every man hath received the gift, even so minister
the same one to another, as good stewards of the manifold
grace of God.
11 If
any man speak, let him speak as the oracles (utterances)
of God; if any man minister, let him do it as of the
ability which God giveth: that God in all things may
be glorified through Jesus Christ, to whom be praise
and dominion for ever and ever. Amen.
Wayne and I taught the M.W.G.P.
series as a class with 108 students registered
for the class from 17 different states. Others also came
in at different times to be a part of the class. We began
on Monday August 2nd and finished
at noon on August 6th. Wayne
and I taught at least 20 hours on the impartation or power
manifestations of holy spirit.
We still have a few more
hours to teach to finish taping the series, and we'll
be doing them sometime soon. During the week we had the
opportunity to minister healing and deliverance to 35
believers. It was one of the most exhausting weeks Wayne
and I have ever spent ministering to God's people. At
the same time it was also the most exciting and electrifying
week too. It made me think of Paul and Barnabas in Acts
14, When they returned from their journey and
they shared with the believers "how God had worked
with them." God truly worked within us to minister
ti HIS people. We are very excited about this series along
with the rest of the "Power of God Series,"
that they are available to the believers and their families.
"M.W.G.P." will be a wonderful
tool for parents to use in teaching their children about
the impartation manifestations and how they are to function
in the Body of CHrist. They can learn together as a family.
At Family Reunion 2004 we had around
400 folks come in from 27 states. The theme was, "Teaching,
Preaching, and Healing," and the theme verses
were Matthew 4:23 and Matthew
9:35.
Matthew 4:23
And Jesus went about all Galilee, teaching in their
synagogues, and preaching the gospel of the kingdom,
and healing all manner of sickness and all manner of
disease among the people.
Matthew 9:35
is identical in the Greek, but the King JAmes Version
in English has the word "every" instead
of the word "all," that is used in
Matthew 4:24. Wayne taught the section
of scripture beginning in Matthew 4 and later he taught
Matthew 9:35. Jon Nessle taught the "Sermon
on the Mount" in Matthew 5-7, and
I taught Matthew 8 and Matthew
9:36 - Matthew 10:1-8. It was a fantastic time
for all who were here, and Wayne and I want to thank you
for coming to support us during the teaching and taping
of "M.W.G.P." and to those
attending Family Reunion 2004. You all
helped contribute to their success.
