By Any Means Necessary
What a blessed service we had this morning celebrating Pink Sunday. Everyone looked beautiful in their pink and we encourage everyone to perform monthly exams and to seek the wisdom of their physicians if they notice anything abnormal. Early intervention is truly key to healing and survival of Breast Cancer. The mass choir touched our hearts in song and ushered in the Holy Spirit to anoint our service. We learned this morning that people, even church people, will sometimes try to categorize you by your situation, remind you of your past, judge you, or even try to block your blessings. Minister Holmes inspired us to keep on seeking God “By Any Means Necessary” (Matthew 15:21-28) until we receive our deliverance and blessings. Just like the Canaanite mother, if we humble ourselves, believe in Him, and keep on calling on Him even when it seems He’s not answering, He will answer us and provide for all of our needs! Don’t let others stifle your praise. Hold fast and praise Him all the way through! It’s not too late to get a CD or DVD of either of the services, please contact Bro. Nathaniel Sarratt or one of the Audio/Video team members to get your copy today. If you don’t have a church home, we welcome you to join us this Sunday at 10am to see for yourself what God can do!
