Merry Christmas

Merry Christmas Everyone from the Waters Family! We are praying for you guys to have a very special time with family and friends this Christmas! May the Lord richly bless you!

Toys for Pensacola and Tuscaloosa

Through much prayer the Lord directed us to focus on local outreaches this year and Toys for Pensacola and Tuscaloosa was birthed. Freedom in Action Team will be collecting toys up till the Outreach in Pensacola on Dec. 14^th. We will have worship, the gospel preached, and toys given away at the end of the event. We will then send Pastor Javine and Bro. Richard Davis some of the excess toys back to Tuscaloosa for an outreach the following week. We’re are also believing that we may have so much excess toys that we can take a trip to Mexico in January to distribute the excess. This is so exciting!

Costa Rica, Central America

Praise Jesus! Brother Richard and I had an amazing trip to Costa Rica. The trip had some snags. We had some changes in our itinerary, but the Lord touched many lives that week. Here’s some of the highlights.

We had an awesome time hitting the streets evangelizing with Pastor Rogelio’s Congregation in San Jose, Costa Rica. The first Saturday morning. We had many people touched that day. The highlight was this young man to the right. Frank stopped him and asked him if we could pray for him. He immediately said yes. He had a Catholic background and I talked to him about being born again. The young man received the Lord and the Baptism of the Holy Spirit. Praise the Lord for touching this young man!

Puntarenas, Costa Rica

Frank took Richard and I to the fishing Village in Puntarenas to share with these amazing people. Richard preached the gospel and several folks gave their lives to the Lord. We then had the opportunity to pray for them to receive the Holy Spirit. Several of them received! Praise the Lord!


This is an amazing testimony! In the meeting with the fisherman we met the owner of a fishing company. It was a divine appointment for sure. He invited us to come pray for his business. We went to pray, and we met his son. It turned out that his son was only born again for eight months but had planted a church right there in front of the business. People would come up and down the bridge to come to church. The folks call the other side of the bridge North Korea because it’s so spiritually dark there. The Lord has opened a door to come back and be part of a Crusade there at this Church and take fishing boats to one of the islands to preach as well. Praise Jesus what an opportunity!

Pastors Healed

The Lord gave me an amazing opportunity to teach at Pastor Evangelista’s Church on the Baptism of the Holy Ghost! It was amazing to see how hungry the people were when they were taught. The light bulb went off and several of them received the power of the Holy Ghost. The Pastors were very sick, and we had an opportunity to pray for them. We got news the next day that they were healed! Praise Jesus!

Our Precious Family in the Mountains

My highlight of the trip was visiting our family in the mountains. We took supplies to this family twice and prayed for them. It brought me to tears when we received a call after the first trip that the family hadn’t eaten all day and the Lord came through just in time. We also got to bring every child a Christmas Gift and sing happy birthday to Jesus. It was such a precious time in the Lord. The Lord loves this family so much. We are praying about having a church service there when we return and inviting the whole village. It will be an awesome opportunity to share the gospel with the Village. May the Lord’s will be done!

Thank You

So many things happened on this trip that I’ll have to share with you more in person. One thing I can tell is that I did get chased by a lizard and it was scary but funny. Thank You Guys so much for praying for me and sending me to share the gospel all over the World. The Lord is doing so many amazing things and more to come. He’s expanding our territory! More news to come! God Bless Everyone! The Waters Family loves you very much!

Blessings,

Encountering the Holy Ghost!

My first Encounter with the Holy Ghost

I was so intrigued with going to this singles class that I had to go that Sunday. I walked into the church and asked the first person I could see to direct me to the class. I thought maybe there was a good Christian girl there that I could meet that would be my future wife. I walked in and met this amazing couple. There was something different about them. They were people of prayer and they knew how to really tap into hearing from the Lord. Rhonda was a prophetic intercessor and she started teaching.  I was getting lightheaded in my seat. To be honest, I thought I was going to pass out. I really didn’t hear much that she had to say that day because I was drunk in the Holy Spirit and didn’t know it. At the end, folks would ask me if I was OK and I said yes not wanting to embarrass myself. I got up staggering to the sanctuary for the service and it was a lot like the week before. The Lord would move powerfully that day! I was hooked and I started listening to a different voice the Holy Ghost. The enemy lost that battle and I’m glad he did.

Receiving the power of the Holy Ghost

I remember responding to an altar call one Sunday Evening at the Church of God that I was attending. There were several men standing there and surrounded me to pray. I can’t remember everything they prayed over me, but I remember feeling all warm inside and so much peace of the Lord! The gentleman started praying for me to receive the Baptism of the Holy Ghost. One of the men started coaching me and had me just open my mouth to utter some easy words to say that was not in English. I took off! I started just using my tongue with saying just La La and then I remember the Presence of God getting stronger. I could no longer stand as one of them prophesied over me about being a prophet. I didn’t understand that at all and still don’t. Maybe that’s still in the future. I went home after the meeting that night and got alone in my room. I was very intrigued by what had just happened to me. Was this just a one-time experience or could this really be a gift. Of course, the devil was lying to me telling me that I received nothing. I closed my bedroom door and I remember saying OK Lord if this is your gift, I’m going to do it. I opened my mouth and started uttering the words that were easiest to say. The Holy Spirit’s presence came on me and it was as if there was a person that just entered the room. Well a person had entered the room for sure He was the person of the Holy Ghost. I got scared and stopped praying, but all I could feel was perfect peace, so I did it again and again. The Holy Spirit was teaching me how to pray as I practiced.  He was giving me more and more words to say. You see I learned later that a body builder never starts out with heavy weights. He starts out small and then works his way up to heavier weights. That’s what the Holy Spirit was doing to me. I started out with a very small language, but today the Lord has given me a full language of tongues and its glorious. Praise Jesus! He gave me the gift to pray His perfect will and later He would tell me that all the other gifts would come out of praying in the Holy Ghost!

Learning to Pray and the gift of Intercession

After receiving the gift of the Holy Spirit, I had this hunger in my heart to learn how to pray. The Lord had totally set me up. The Class that I was going to the teacher was a prophetic intercessor. I was intrigued by her prayer life and desired what she had. She would always get scriptures on her heart and she could always hear from God and would totally flow with what was on God’s heart. I made sure to be in every one of her classes and if she had functions outside of the Church I would be there. The Lord was using her to disciple me. The word of God was poured into me and I found myself hearing from God as I spent time with Him, and the Lord would share with me what was on his heart. The Lord was using this precious lady to disciple me and put the word of God into my life. There’s not a day that goes by that I don’t think about the price Rhonda paid to pour into us in that Grads Sunday School Class. I know she will receive a huge reward in heaven for this! God Bless You Rhonda! I love You!

Demon Possessed Girl

I will never forget what happened! I was still very young and just filled with the Holy Ghost. A bunch of people brought this young girl into our Sunday School Class after it was over. They surrounded her and began to pray. This girl’s eyes started twitching and rolling back into her head. She then started speaking in a man’s voice saying I’m not Angie. I was like this is crazy, but I wanted to stay in there to see what was about to happen. One lady yelled out if you’re not filled with the Holy Ghost get out of the room. I thought well I just got the Holy Ghost, so I’m OK and I stayed. They wrestled with this lady for a long time. I believe it was for around an hour. They spoke to that demon to come out of her. She was throwing people around as if she was a body builder. It took several men to keep her steady. Finally, she was free, and all the demons had left. I thought to myself this is the real deal! That night gave me so much confirmation that there was a God and a Devil. There was no going back now!

Nuevo, Laredo, Mexico
Richard and I had a powerful time in Nuevo Laredo, Mexico! We got to preach two Crusade Meetings over the weekend. The Lord changed the message during the worship. He wanted to heal folks, so He had me preach on giving up unforgiveness, bitterness, resentment and envy. Several folks came to the altar that night. The Lord touched so many people over the weekend with healing, deliverance and folks received the baptism of the Holy Ghost! All glory goes to Jesus!
Pensacola, Florida Cross Carrying Outreach
The Freedom in Action team carried the cross in downtown Pensacola. It was an amazing time! The Lord gave us some amazing divine appointments that day. Here’s a couple testimonies. We prayed before we left for folks to be drawn to the cross! This precious girl Juliana was totally drawn to the cross. We prayed for her. She was so hungry for the Lord and to evangelize her college. Bro. Bert Farias ministered to her on receiving the Baptism of the Holy Ghost and she received! She’s so precious! Praise Jesus!
The first day in New Mexico I received a text. This was the last person we talked to on the Cross Carrying Outreach. You never really know all the details of the impact were having on folks when we step out in faith. A little while back I was downtown drinking at the bars. Saw a few guys with a cross. I stopped and told them I admire what they are doing. It can’t be easy trying to talk with a bunch of drunk people. I have always believed in God just never completely surrendered to Him. Something struck me about the friendliness and genuineness about them. Anyway, long story short. The next day I said to myself, I have met two many people whose lives have been transformed by Christ and decided to pray. Amazing hope has come into my life. Thank You!
Truth or Consequences, New Mexico

I had no idea what I was walking into when I arrived at the Truth or Consequences Revival. As soon as I walked into the Church, Pastor Caleb Cooper was leading a gentleman to the Lord and he was getting into the baptismal pool. Pastor Caleb called me up to help and it turned out the man was saying he wanted to be delivered from 19 demons. We fought for a long time as the demons came out one by one. Levi and Pastor Caleb helped us at the end as we loved on him until he was free! Praise to King Jesus!
Mina
Love this testimony! I was praying on what the Lord would have me do for evangelism that week because I was the only one hitting the streets until Bro. Richard Davis would arrive. The Lord had me go to Wal-Mart and make up goody bags of bananas, apples, chips, etc. and knock on doors. I drove around and let the Lord lead me. I knocked on Mina’s door. At first, she thought I was a salesman and said no, but she realized I was giving her a gift. Mina said she was just saying to herself that she was lonely, and I knocked on her door. She ended up coming to our tent meeting on Friday. I had a chance to witness to her because Mina is Jewish and has not received Christ yet. She was amazed from Old Testament scriptures showing Jesus as the Messiah, especially Jesus dying on Passover. I believe it’s only a matter of time for her. Here’s the kicker when I got back home it turned out that on our first trip there one of our team members had witnessed to her downtown. The Lord really wants to reveal Himself to Mina! Please pray for her!
Powerful Tent Meeting
Richard and I had an awesome opportunity to share a proclamation at the Tent America Meeting in Truth or Consequences. We preached the simple gospel and had an awesome opportunity to pray for the city! I believe our greatest assignment was to encourage New Hope Revival Church. The Lord really touched the church body and gave them a fresh wind of the Holy Ghost for their new season! Jesus touched many lives that day. He is awesome!
Costa Rica Nov. 1^st-11^th
So excited for our next assignment in Costa Rica! Thank You Guys so much for your prayers and support for this trip. I know the Lord is going to do amazing things! This is still kind of a scout trip for us, but we believe the door is open to bring some teams there sometime next year. Frank’s heart is to travel every county with prayer and evangelism with this trip and the coming trips. Can’t Wait!
Thank You

Truth or Consequences, NM  

I’m in tears writing this Newsletter because so many amazing things happened in New Mexico. I have so many testimonies of what happened I will only be able to share some of the stories of what happened there. What an amazing Trip!

Nicanor and his precious Family

Martie and I met this precious family while doing door to door Evangelism. We had just prayed for his landlord and she gave us permission to pray for everyone in the Apartment Complex. This precious family was outside and soon as we started talking to them, we were invited inside. Nicanor was heavily into religion and started telling us about his religion and how his priest told us he had three demons. I immediately knew Martie should share his testimony with him and he did. We then prayed for him. Immediately Nicanor started throwing up and going thru deliverance. Nicanor gave his life to Jesus and all the demons left him and he got the Holy Ghost Praise Jesus! All the glory goes to King Jesus!

The Story doesn’t end there

The enemy came and lied to Nicanor. The demons said that if he didn’t let them back in that they would kill his family, so he did. The family came to get baptized that night. Nicanor tried to cough up the demons like what had happened the day before, but they were not coming out. Once he got in the baptismal waters they began to manifest. Pastor Todd Smith was there from the North Georgia Revival and he had Nicanor baptized seven times. It was a fight all the way up to the sixth time. We learned that a family member had put a curse on him. The last demon didn’t want to come out, but Levi looked at Nicanor and said you will come out in Jesus Name and on the seventh baptismal Nicanor was free. The whole family was baptized! Praise Jesus You are faithful!

Serving the Church

I had to take this picture before I left for home. This family has been transformed and are now plugged into the church. Nicanor served on our last baptismal night and I received a text that he was greeting people at the door for one of the Revival Meetings. This is what its all about to see transformed lives. This family was living in complete hell and didn’t know how to get free. They were crying out for help and the Lord sent Martie and me to help them with the power of the
Holy Ghost! I praise God for transformed lives!

Treasure Hunts

Martie and I had the amazing opportunity to take a couple teams out doing treasure hunts. We had so many amazing divine appointments. We had so many folks lining up at Wal Mart for prayer that the manager asked us to leave. The gentleman in the picture found so many of their clues it was mind-boggling. One of them had Sun Flowers and after we prayed for this ladies healing in her back, she gave us all Sun Flowers. Such a powerful time in the Lord!

Revival Breaks Out and Continues

In the Sunday Morning Service there was just a tremendous expectation that the Lord was going to something. Bro. Levi preached and called everyone to repentance and the altars were full of folks repenting and intercession. I had to leave to head to EL Paso, but I learned they were going to have a night service. That night I learned folks were just coming off the streets to give their lives to Jesus and be baptized. It’s happening every night. A couple nights ago the Church was on their face crying out for souls and the Lord gripped me with a baptism of tears. The tears haven’t stopped. I have been crying out for lost souls non-stop. The Evangelism Team is still there, and I am sensing that I’m supposed to return.

Mexico, New Mexico and Cost Rica

Guys I’m in tears writing this. I have been crying uncontrollably! I have received a baptism of tears. I know the Lord wants me to spread what I have received. I will be in Mexico with Bro. Richard Davis the weekend of Oct. 4^th-6^th to help with a Crusade. Then I am making plans to go back to New Mexico to help the Evangelism Team continue to plow the ground with prayer and evangelism to the streets. I had the dates of Oct. 16^th-20^th carved out to go to North Carolina, but the Lord has compelled me to use those dates to go back to New Mexico. I started a fundraiser to help with the funds to go back, so please keep me in prayer for the funds to come in. I Can’t wait to spread the fire to Costa Rica from Nov. 1^st-11^th, as well. Frank continues to pray and plan for Richard and I’s arrival. Its going to be amazing!

Thank You

But Jesus!

The thief came to Steal, Kill and Destroy

I remember the devil tried to kill me many times throughout my childhood. He was afraid of the calling of God on my life and tried to snuff me out early. The first time, I was sitting with a friend on the deck of our pool. My friend pushed me in the pool. I couldn’t swim and I remember sitting at the bottom of the pool drowning. My sister looked out the back door and saw that I was no longer sitting on the deck. She ran as fast as she could and jumped into the water to save me. It was just in time! Praise God the enemy lost that one.

Another time was when I was fishing on a dock at our cottage in Canada. Its kind of a funny story today, but it wasn’t funny back then. I went to cast my line out, but I shot myself into the water and my pole stayed on the dock. I still hadn’t learned to swim yet, so I grabbed a hold of the edge of the dock with my hands. I held on for dear life and it seemed like I was there for an eternity. I could feel my little hands slipping as I cried out for help! Had I let go I probably wouldn’t be here today! Praise God He had another plan! My Aunt heard me screaming and she saw my little hands hanging on at the end of the dock. Praise God! I was rescued and lived to see another day.

The third time, I was playing with my friends in the street. A car came by us on the road and we got out of the way. Immediately a couple of guys jumped out of the car and asked us if we wanted to go for a ride. Praise God! We kept our distance and remembered what our parents taught us to stay away from strangers. These guys started screaming in rage for us to get in the car! I remember fear gripping my heart! We started running away as the men chased us in their car. We got away by running through our neighbors’ yards. Who knows what those men would have done to us had they caught us? I don’t believe I wouldn’t be alive today to tell you the story. The devil lost again!

Many times, the enemy tried to kill me. I don’t know how many times I should have been dead and in hell through my teens and twenties, but God had a plan. Drugs, Alcohol and riotous living could have taken me out. I believe the Lord was using folks to pray. Don’t know who, but I praise God for them. The Lord has a plan and God calls intercessors to pray even if they’re in another country. Someone prayed for me and I thank God for them. I believe I will meet them in eternity and get a chance to thank them!

But Jesus came to bring Life and more Abundantly  

I was radically saved when I was 27! Everything changed! Although, I couldn’t do drugs anymore because of random drug testing at my job, my alcohol consumption tripled, and I was immediately set free. I went from listening to Ozzy Osbourne and Rock and Roll to listening to the Christian Radio Station. The Lord had pursued me my whole life and I finally gave in there was no going back. I went to work the next day and the guys at work were shocked. I walked in with so much peace and joy in my life and I started witnessing to them right away. Most of them would pretty much stay away from me, but the Lord would use me for a time to witness there and a couple of them came to Jesus.

I had put off going to Church long enough, so I set out on a quest to find where the Lord wanted me. The first Sunday I walked into a Methodist Church. The people were very nice, and the service was good, but I knew in my heart that this was not the church for me. In Ocala, I worked at a Van Conversion Company called Mark III. I knew a guy that kind of looked like Samson. He had big arms and long hair and I knew he was a Christian because he would talk about Jesus all the time. I asked him if he knew of any good Churches and he told me about his Church called the Church of God and a grads singles class. I was single so it sparked my curiosity. I thought well maybe my wife might be there. The Lord was totally going to set me up again!

I couldn’t get this recommendation to go to this Church of God out of my head. I walked into the service and I could feel something different about it. There a presence I never felt before. I thought this is nothing like the Churches I grew up in. The worship was amazing, and I saw folks lifting their hands to the Lord. I thought this Church is weird, but I was kind of drawn to it. The minister got up to speak and it was mass chaos I thought. I can’t remember the message, but he was so charismatic and energized. Folks were running around praising the Lord and I heard folks praying in different languages and running to the altar to pray. They were believing the Lord for Revival. I heard a whisper in my ear that I now know was from the enemy. He said these people are weird and you don’t need to be in this Church. You need to get out of here now, so I left, but deep inside my heart I wanted what they had.

In the morning, I went back to work with all kinds of questions for my friend. I had so much curiosity. I wanted to know what in the world was going on in that church. He explained to me everything that was going on was in the Bible and encouraged me to read it in the Books of Acts. He then encouraged me to give it one more visit and reminded me of the Grad singles class again.

My first Encounter with the Holy Ghost

I was so intrigued with going to this singles class that I had to go that Sunday. I walked into the church and asked the first person I could see to direct me to the class. I thought maybe there was a good Christian girl there that I could meet that would be my future wife. I walked in and met this amazing couple. There was something different about them. They were people of prayer and knew how to really tap into hearing from the Lord. Rhonda was a prophetic intercessor and she started teaching.  I was getting lightheaded in my seat. To be honest, I thought I was going to pass out. I really didn’t hear much that she had to say that day because I was drunk in the Holy Spirit and didn’t know it. At the end, folks would ask me if I was OK and I said yes not wanting to embarrass myself. I got up staggering to the sanctuary for the service and it was a lot like the week before. The Lord would move powerfully that day! I was hooked and I started listening to a different voice the Holy Ghost. The enemy lost that battle and I’m glad He did.

Carrier, Mississippi

The Lord has done so many amazing things! I keep having to back track to write about them. I had the amazing opportunity to stop in Carriere, Miss. on my way to Mexico. I had like a 23 hour turn around time coming from Costa Rica and I was to meet Bro. Richard Davis at House of Refuge Church in Carriere, Miss. I remembered feeling the weight of having nothing to share. I stopped at a coffee shop in Picayune, Miss. for coffee and went to a local park to hear what the Lord had for me. Immediately the Lord spoke to my heart and in a span of 30 minutes and I had my sermon. I then felt compelled to go back to the coffee shop to refill my coffee. Little did I know, I was about to walk into another divine appointment. I walked back into the coffee shop and got my coffee refilled and sat down to go over my notes. Here came this amazing couple to talk to me. The gentleman to the right is running for governor of the State of Miss. I thought now I know why I came back for coffee. It was to pray for this amazing couple. They let me pray for them and I remember the Holy Spirit giving me words of encouragement for them. Praise Jesus!

The meeting that night at the House of Refuge was so amazing! The Lord had giving me a word from the park on Comparison. I then handed the microphone to Bro. Richard and he gave prophetic words to folks. The Holy Ghost was moving powerfully! The Holy Spirit spoke to my heart about anointing every one’s head with the oil that I had received from being up in North Georgia from the Bible that has been supernaturally flowing with oil. The Holy Spirit touched many lives that night. We love House of Refuge Church these guys are on Fire for the Lord!

Freedom Church Pensacola

I had the amazing opportunity to preach at my home Church Freedom Church Pensacola. The Lord had me preach a message entitled Go get My Bride. Powerful night in the Lord! Here’s our YouTube link if you would like to watch it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6rRxwS15k7w.  I may be biased, but I believe its one of the best churches in our country. My Pastors our so full of the love of Jesus. The love of God just bubbles out of these guys and its infectious. Since I walked into Freedom Church Pensacola a few years ago, I have never been the same. I have so much more of the love and compassion of Jesus now! His love has changed the way I speak. Its from a place of brokenness! The Lord doesn’t want anyone to perish. Let’s bring in the lost one soul at a time!

Treasure Hunt Pensacola, Florida

Testimony! We went over all our clues before the team went to the Mall! I was walking to the bathroom and saw a girl with bright red hair. Remembering that someone had a clue of someone with red hair. Aaron Brewer had the clue and we went over to talk to her. Aaron shared his clues with her, and she immediately started to cry. Aaron and several of us had prophetic words for her and she needed healing from un-forgiveness! We lead her in a prayer to let the people go that had hurt her! Nicole Segars prayed for her friends’ neck and she received immediate healing! So amazing! Jesus You get the glory!

Here’s another testimony from our Treasure Hunt. Nicole and I had the clue flowers and our team walked by a lady working in a booth that had flowers on her shirt. We knew that she was our clue, but she was being chewed out by her boss. We walked down to Dillard’s and felt compelled to go back. We prayed for her boss to leave and he immediately left. We made our approach and told the lady about our clues. She was so encouraged! We got to pray for her. Tyler had clues for family issues, as well. She prayed with us a rededication prayer giving her life back to Jesus and forgiving the folks that have hurt her in the past.  Praise Jesus!

Going into the Busy Season

Excited to be going into our busy season! In Pensacola there is the Origins and the Light the Fire, Again Conferences. We’re planning on hitting the streets of Pensacola around the schedule. Brian Liechty has been working on a cross for us to carry. New Mexico in September-Already locked in the plane tickets and will be meeting Levi Lutz’s team out there for Evangelism and Prayer for Revival all week. Mexico in October Crusade-Richard Davis and I will be helping with a Crusade. Costa Rica in November-Still working on the plane tickets for this one. Richard and I will be there the beginning of Nov. We will be  preaching in Churches, Evangelizing and will be traveling the country with prayer assignments. Exciting Time!

Oh, to be a Child, Again!

Oh, to be a Child, Again!
I really believe the Lord marked me at a very young age. My parents use to go to a Presbyterian Church, and throughout my life they told me that I stood up in front of the Church and sang Jesus loves me- Yes, I know for the Bible tells me so. It must have been a special time for my Mom because she would talk about it all the time. She would say how wonderful it was when I was singing it. How much greater is our heavenly Father. He must have soaked all that praise in. It must have been a sweet-smelling fragrance to him. A little child singing about how much God loves him. I think about what Jesus said in Matthew 18:2-4.  Then Jesus called a little child to Him, set him in the midst of them, and said, “Assuredly, I say to you, unless you are converted and become as little children, you will by no means enter the kingdom of heaven. Therefore, whoever humbles himself as this little child is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven. I believe I was around three years old. I was innocent from the world. My parents hadn’t divorced yet and I believe it was one of my greatest days on the earth. Oh, to sing praises to our King, oh how the smell of the fragrance must have been to Him. I think of how he must have felt turning and looking around. Bragging with the angels saying there’s one of my children singing about how much I love him. All of heaven must have chimed in singing along about the love of Jesus. What a moment that must have been. Oh, to be a little child again!

Betrayed!

Betrayed! My girlfriend was living with another man . . . in my home!

I suspected that she was cheating on me. She was staying out all night partying with her "friends from work" then coming home either drunk or hung over. Then there was this guy at work she was always talking about. I confronted her and demanded to know if she was having an affair. She lied to me and denied it. I was furious. In a jealous rage I stormed out of the home, slamming the door behind me. I left and moved to my parent's home nearby. 

My world was shattered. How could she do this to me? We had been living together for five years. I loved this girl. I had offered to marry her. Didn't that mean anything to her? What about all the good times we had shared? 

To be honest, I hadn't been the best guy to hang around. I was a regular drinker. I hadn't always been considerate of her. Maybe we could talk this out I reasoned. A week later I found out that the guy from work had moved in with her. I was outraged! I called her on the phone. She still denied having an affair. She insisted that this man she was now living with was "just a friend". Yeah, right. She said that she "didn't want me out of the picture yet." What did that mean? I could feel my rage boiling over. I threatened to kill her and her new lover. I slammed down the receiver.

One of my buddies at work tried to console me. "Forget about her. You'll find another one." He took me to bars, but it didn't help. I really couldn't talk to any women. I was angry with all women because of what my girlfriend had done to me. I became depressed. I tried to fill my life with pornography. My thoughts became darker. I contemplated suicide. 

One day I was sitting in front of the television set channel surfing and I stopped and heard a pastor preaching a sermon on forgiveness. His sermon was about forgiving others so God could forgive us. He said that God cannot forgive us unless we forgive others. He read a scripture from the book of Mark. "If you do not forgive, neither will your Father in heaven forgive you your trespasses." I realized that I was a sinner and that I needed forgiveness of my sins. 

I also realized that I needed to forgive my ex-girlfriend for what she did to me. The pastor prayed a prayer of salvation and I accepted Jesus into my heart. When I got up from my knees praying I felt the load of sin and depression lift from me. The Lord had given me peace. A peace that I had never had before. I felt God's unconditional love. God had sacrificed Jesus, His only Son, for me. Jesus willingly died on the cross and took the punishment I had deserved so that I could have abundant life, and when I die He has a place for me in Heaven. Even when I didn't know God, He still loved me. If I had been the only person on earth, God still would have sent Jesus to die for me. And that would be the same for you. He did it for all of us. 

Do you need peace? Maybe you aren't struggling with loneliness, anger or depression, like I was. Whatever it is that you are fighting against, Jesus is the answer. He can help you overcome anything. Are you sick? Jesus is the healer. Are you addicted to pornography, drugs or alcohol? Jesus will set you free. 

God loves you and has a great plan for your life. The Bible says in Jeremiah 29:11, "For I know the thoughts I think toward you, says the Lord, thoughts of peace and not of evil, to give you a hope and a future." Jesus said in John 10:10, . . . I have come that they may have life, and have it more abundantly." 

How can you receive the abundant life Jesus has for you? 

In John 3:3 Jesus said to Nicodemus, a religious leader, "Unless one is born again he cannot see the kingdom," In Romans 10:9-10 the Bible says "That if you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead you will be saved. For with the heart one believes unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation." If you confess with your mouth and believe in your heart that Jesus is the Son of God and that He died for your sins and rose again you can be assured that you will go to heaven. 

Pray this Prayer:

Dear God, I know that I have sinned and that I need help. I believe in my heart that Jesus is your Son, that He died on the cross for my sins and that You raised Him from the dead. Jesus, I ask for your forgiveness of my sins, wash me clean with your blood. Jesus, I open my heart and invite you to come in. Make yourself real to me. I confess you as Lord and Savior in my life. Please help me to walk with You and learn Your ways. I give You total control of my life. Amen. 

Where do I go from here?

Pray every day. Read your Bible beginning with the New Testament. Attend a good Bible believing Church that operates in the gifts of the Holy Spirit and teaches the full gospel of Jesus Christ. Receive full-emersion baptism. Fellowship regularly with other believers in Jesus Christ.

Nuevo Laredo, Mexico

So much happened in Costa Rica that I had to wait to share about what happened on our last Nuevo Laredo, Mexico trip. I wasn’t even home for less than 24 hours and I was on my way to meet Bro. Richard Davis to go to Nuevo Laredo, Mexico. The Lord connected us with Pastor David Burkett through my mentor Joel Crumpton. We preached a revival meeting the Friday night that we were there, and several folks came to Jesus! In the picture to the right, you can see that the altars were full of folks giving their lives to Jesus! The Lord really blessed these precious people! All the glory goes to King Jesus!

The next morning, we got to share with the local Pastors about Revival, Prayer and Unity. It was amazing! The Lord directed us to have the Pastors come, take the microphone and pray for the city of Nuevo Laredo. It was such a precious moment! You could really sense the heart of the Father! The Lord really did something special in the hearts of the Pastors that morning! Praise Jesus!  

Atlanta, Georgia

John and I had an amazing time helping Bro. Joel Crumpton pass out tracks in the Cumming, Ga. Parade. It was overwhelming. We had thousands of people watching the parade and Joel carried the cross pretty much the whole way. The tracks had the million-dollar question on it. Children would follow us to make sure they would get one. We passed out thousands of them and it was a precious time to be able to minister with my son John. He’s an amazing teenager almost all grown up and he love’s Jesus!

Testimony

It’s so amazing that the Lord continues to lead me to folks running for political office. In the picture to the right, this precious man pulled up in a truck with a huge sign. He got out of his truck and walked straight up to me. He’s running for Senator in the State of Georgia and is a born-again Christian. It turned out that he gave his life to Jesus in the Military in Pensacola. What a coincidence? It was an honor for him to let us pray for him! The Lord gave me a word for him to not bow to the political system. He said that was a confirming word because he was just talking about Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego. Love this guy! May the Lord totally bless him!  

Pensacola, FL Children’s Outreach

We always have an amazing time ministering to the children at Oakwood Terrace. Fraga and Susan Darosa came with an amazing team teaching the children soccer skills and playing games with them. They are such a tremendous blessing to the children. At the end of the day, Fraga shared a testimony and several hands went up to receive the Lord. Praise to the name of Jesus!

Susan Flynn and Susie Reilly taught the smaller children. Suzie brought these amazing fireman hats and the children got to write bible scriptures on them. It was so precious to see them wearing their little hats. The children are so precious in the eyes of Jesus. They are so happy to see us come and play with them. Most of them are in tears when we leave and our hearts break.  Its one of my favorite outreaches!

New Mexico, Mexico and Costa Rica

I have been overwhelmed at the response of your prayers and financial support for these trips starting in September! The Lord has provided all the traveling expenses. It’s been totally supernatural! It’s been on my heart to be able to take extra finances to bless the families in the mountains in Costa Rica with basic food supplies and bottled water. These families are very poor, and they weigh on my heart. I can’t wait to see them in November!

Thank You

Go and Declare's Newsletter for July 2019

Costa Rica

Wow! The Costa Rica Trip was so amazing! As soon I landed and got to my hotel, I knew the Lord was going to move powerfully. I received news that I didn’t get picked to go on the Village Crusades in Africa and immediately the enemy started whispering in my ear. He was telling me that I didn’t get picked because I was too old now and I was all washed up.

I sought out some council and was encouraged by my mentor Bro. Bert Farias, my good friend Richard Davis and my amazing wife. Bro. Bert told me to just keep leaving the 99 and going after the 1 and my wife spoke the scripture over me that God will make room for me and bring before great men. Both happened Praise Jesus!

Precious Family in Mountains



In the picture to the right is a precious family in the Mountains. Once I met them, my heart to started to break. This is a very poor village that used to work jobs at the University, but the School has been closed and they now have no jobs. Their homes are falling a part and they have no food to eat. The Lord used me to share the gospel with the teenage girl and she came to the Lord. The Lord also healed the Mom’s back pain. Later in the week, we were able to bring them food and clothing to help them. Believing to bring them supplies when I return in November.  Please keep this family in your prayers!

Business Meetings with Frank

My Friend Frank is a geologist and he conducts business meetings to help clean the beaches from logs and debris. Frank brought me a long and I had the chance to preach the gospel and pray for folks. In the picture to the left were predominant businessmen. After I had the chance to share with them, every one of them got down on their knees and accepted Jesus as their Lord and Savior. All praise goes to Jesus!

Business Meeting in Pontaranus, Costa Rica

Frank conducted a business meeting at a Fishing Village in Pontaranus and I had the opportunity to pray for the sick. The Lord moved powerfully there. Several folks received healing. One of the things the Lord lead me to do was to teach the people that they could lay hands on the sick and see the Lord heal. I would have them lay hands on each other and it was amazing to see the Lord touch and heal his people. All glory goes to Jesus!

Presidents House

This was amazing! The word the Lord gave my wife was totally coming to pass. Frank was able to get us in for a tour of the President’s house. I was able to meet the Minister to the President and the Minister to the deaf. The Minister to the deaf took my testimony tract and told me that she would give it to the President and the First Lady. I found out that they read my testimony and they are wanting to meet with me when I return. Praise Jesus! How exciting!



Amazing Testimonies

This gentleman on the right was healed while we were visiting at Pastor Rogelio’s home.  His wife called Pastor Rogelio while they were in the Emergency Room and right over the phone, we had his wife pray over him and speak healing. He was released from the hospital right after. Here’s us visiting him the day after. Praise to King Jesus!

This was so amazing! On my last day, I got to visit many families. So many healings took place and folks gave their lives to Jesus. At this house, I prayed for the man in the left picture and the Lord healed his back. I was going to have him pray for the lady because she needed healing in her knee. She had an accident about a year ago, had surgery and it wasn’t healing properly. She couldn’t bend her knee. Pastor Rogelio whispered in my ear telling me that he wasn’t born again, so I preached the gospel to the man and he came to the Lord. I then had him lay hands on the girl and had him just say a simple prayer of healing. She was immediately healed. I then preached to her, as well and she gave her life to Jesus. All praise goes to Jesus!

Traveling Schedule Kicks back in!

Woo Hoo! I’m excited to back in Pensacola briefly for some outreaches with the Freedom in Action Team through the summer. This week, John and I will be heading out to Atlanta to Evangelize at a Parade on the 4^th of July in Cumming, Ga with Bro. Joel Crumpton. In September, I will be in New Mexico helping with an Evangelism Conference and Prayer. In October, Richard Davis and I will be helping Pastor David Burkett with a crusade in Nuevo Laredo, Mexico. In November, Richard Davis and I travel to Costa Rica for a very special trip. Frank is planning for us to travel to the Islands on a sailboat conducting business meetings and praying for the sick and preaching the gospel. When he asked me to come back and do this, all I could think about was Paul and Silas. Its going to be awesome! After the Islands, we’ll be visiting churches and homes, praying for the sick and preaching the gospel! This is so Exciting! The Lord is moving powerfully already to help meet the needs for these trips. What an opportunity to see the faithfulness of Jesus and I know that all the financial needs will be met!

Thank You
