Luke 6:22-23, 22 What blessings await you when people hate you and exclude you and mock you and curse you as evil because you follow the Son of Man. 23 When that happens, be happy! Yes, leap for joy! For a great reward awaits you in heaven. And remember, their ancestors treated the ancient prophets that same way.

Dr. Falwell used to say, “A Senior Pastor Never has TWO GOOD DAYS in a ROW”

Paul said, “That I may KNOW HIM in the POWER OF HIS RESURRECTION and THE FELLOWSHIP of HIS SUFFERING”.

There is an old saying that goes, “IF THEY ARE NOT TALKING ABOUT YOU, YOU ARE NOT DOING ANYTHING”

QUESTIONS:

WHO IS TALKING ABOUT YOU TODAY?

WHO IS CRITICAL OF YOU TODAY FOR WHAT YOU ARE DOING IN HIS KINGDOM?

WHO DOES NOT UNDERSTAND YOU TODAY?

ARE YOU LIVING ON THE FRONT LINES TODAY?

Let me ENCOURAGE YOU to FIGHT THE GOOD FIGHT OF FAITH!!

GET ON THE FRONT LINE, THERE IS PLENTY OF ROOM!!!

GREAT THINGS ARE HAPPENING at the GATHERING and the DEVIL can’t stand it.

Pastor Bobby just told me we’ve had over 200 BAPTISMS this year AND 1000 People Getting SAVED at The Gathering!!!

ATTENDANCE THIS YEAR, in 2 SERVICES (compared to 5 services in the old gym) shows we are UP 20 to 30%…

People are GIVING in the TOUGHEST of TIMES and we are WAY OVER BUDGET…

COULD this be possible BECAUSE the GATHERING has given HUNDREDS of THOUSANDS of dollars to the POOR…

Mrs. Terri Danis (Event Co-Ordinator for The Lord’s Child) said we have over 750 LESS FORTUNATE CHILDREN Pre-Registered for our Christmas Event and 342 Christmas Food Baskets that we are giving away…

• New Parking going IN
• New Warehouse Being BUILT for the POOR
• Preparation to go to UGANDA and HELP the POOREST of the POOR……

and GOD Did ALL This In ONLY 8 YEARS…

Our NEXT BIRTHDAY is the 2nd week in January 2010, and we will ONLY be 9 Years OLD…

I’m Praying for this NEXT YEAR: That WE will DOUBLE in SIZE… DOUBLE in BAPTISMS… DOUBLE in OUR GIVING to the POOR…

REMEMBER,

“Only one LIFE will soon pass, only what is done for CHRIST will last”

JESUS HAD CRITICS, DO YOU?

Love You All!!

I don’t deserve for any of you to call me PASTOR… you deserve better…
