I have not posted a blog in months! I have fallen off the "bloggin" wagon. I have decided to make an effort to be consistent in sharing my thoughts and the happenings of life and ministry on a continual basis. So here goes...
It is 2:30 am. I am sitting in my office wide awake. I have spent most of the evening and early hours of this morning reading emails, prayer request and praise reports that have come as a result of my frequent appearances on the largest Christian network in the world. It is a dream come true. I have prayed for this opportunity since I was 12 years old. In the midst of great pain, I asked the Lord to give me the platform to share His gospel with the entire world. That dream is being fulfilled.
I am not celebrating this moment because of selfish ambition, or the need of notoriety and the recognition of man. I am celebrating because after years of being faithful, God is entrusting me reach people around the world. Just realizing that I have the opportunity to pray and believe with so many is overwhelming. To say that I am humbled by this is an understatement.
All of this has refortified my conviction about what true and pure ministry should be. So many ministers are in it for themselves. They want to know how people can bless them, instead of realizing that the purpose of ministry is to be a blessing to others. That is what it was all about for Jesus and that is what it should be all about for ministry today. People are hurting. People are hopeless. They need ministers that carry a burden for their needs to give them encouragement and hope. They need ministry to stand in the authority and power of Jesus so that they may receive the miracle they so desperately need.
I promise you this. I have never been more focused on souls than I am now. May the Lord touch every person that has emailed, written, or called in with a prayer request. May they receive a manifested miracle, so that the name of Jesus would be glorified!
