Today we
went to the Rochester
Public Market again to sow some seeds of the
Gospel to
pass out tracts to merchants buying food and it was very busy as
usual.
First we
prayed and then with my sons; Josiah and Noah started passing out
tracts
to people
at the same place as last week… but for some strange reason, many
people,
and I mean
MANY people did not take any… It was like Satan said to everyone
before
they came, “Hey, don’t take any gospel tracts from those people
today!”
We had
people actually hand them back to us and place them back in the pile
of
tracts we
were holding… I have never had this happen before, it was weird. I knew we
were
in a
spiritual battle and we were “fighting not against flesh and blood”, Ephesians
6
All three
of us were very discouraged and started to head back and leave
but
Something
in me said, “No, just 5 more minutes before we have to leave,
People are
going to Hell and Jesus died to save these people…”
So Noah
and I went back to a different place and many more people started
taking
tracts and
then my son Noah gave an Intelligence
Test tract to two men and we had
them read
it out loud. Then… he asked me what it was…
I told him
it was a gospel tract and the man said, “You are out here saving people
from fire…
You are out here shopping for souls while we
are out shopping for food… Don’t let anyone
discourage you or upset you for what you are
doing. God’s Word does not return void, it
does what it will accomplish. All the angels
rejoice over one, just ONE lost sheep that is saved.”
We both
stood there looking at the two men and thanked them for their encouragement. It
was
as if God
knew we needed the encouragement at that time! Isn’t God awesome? Of
course
we would
love to have everyone at the market saved… but God is looking for just one lost
sheep!
Lastly, if
you have not been to the movies in a while, I would encourage you to

It’s out
right now and only for a short time!
Life is a
vapor, Jesus is returning soon; make sure you are ready when He
returns!
Please
Pray for Us!! Pass this email newsletter to your friend and pastor.
We would
love for you to join us. Invite someone to church this
week!
Go serve your King!
