Message at the Rescue Mission
God is good, an ever present help in the time of need. “…and HE knoweth them that trust in HIM.” [Nahum 1:7b] God is for real! Tonight I want to say God is real!
You know the Bible even says that some of the things we see pass away. But God never passes away. HE is going to be here when it is all over with. HE is still going to be here. HE is going to be here in HIS glory! And I praise God for HIS goodness, for HIS blessings.
Father God in the Name of Jesus we praise YOU this day. We thank YOU for thy blessings.

Rescue Mission Sermon, April 26, 2003
God is good! [Someone in the crowd adds, “All the time!”] Amen, “all the time,” isn’t HE? God is forever faithful.
I feel so humble to come here because I realize that I am nothing. But I know ONE that is everything, ONE that can keep you through times when you are discouraged, when the time that you don’t know which way to go, the presence of the Almighty. HE says, “I will never leave you. I will never forsake you.” [See Hebrews 13:5b] “I will be your God, and they shall be MY people.” [See Hebrews 8:10]
Oh what a precious gift that God has allowed us, that HE created us in HIS likeness,

Rescue Mission Sermon, February 22, 2003
It is going to be hard to fulfill, but God is able to do it. You know I really believe here tonight, each one, [that] there is different needs. And I believe that God spoke to my heart this afternoon that HE wants to touch each one of you. And I am not going to walk down through the crowd. I’m not going to do nothing. And I don’t even know what the need is. But God knows. And HE is here to TOUCH you, afresh.

Rescue Mission Sermon December 28, 2002
I’m the most likely NOT to succeed! And I guess I’m the kind of person that God speaks about that HE takes the nobodies and does something with them. [See 1st Corinthians 1:27-29] And I have really found a strength in the Lord Jesus Christ. I’ve served the Lord actually [sixty-one years]. I’m seventy years old. All my life I’ve served the Lord.
When I was nine years old I was drowning in Stonycreek. Another fellow named Leonard B_______ saved my life. I was going down. I knew I was gone! When I got up I made a dedication then that I was going to serve God. The next Sunday I gave my heart to Jesus Christ. And I’ve never been sorry. It has been a blessing.

Rescue Mission Sermon, November 23, 2002
God has spoken to my heart, if HE “…be for us, who can be against us?” [Romans 8:31b] And I believe God is GREATER than any problem, any situation, anything that stares us in the face. Many times all of us are faced with problems we don’t understand. But the Bible says, “…greater is HE that is in you, than he that is in the world.” [1 John 4:4b]
And I believe the God of Heaven, that loves us so much, is getting ready to take some of HIS people home with HIM one of these days. I really believe it!

Rescue Mission, October 26, 2002
Well, without the Lord’s help I can’t do anything. I’m not a very good speaker. I am not really too much of anything. But, I’ve learned a secret long years ago: that my help comes from the Lord. It says our help comes from above. [Psalms 121:1-8] And I believe in that help tonight.

Rescue Mission Message August 24, 2002
I want to say that I love each one of you in the Name of Jesus. I don’t love you with the love that the world has. But I have the love of God. God is so rich, so full that HIS love abounds within HIS people.
And I CARE for each one of you here tonight in a very special way. And my desire is this night that you might be TOUCHED in the very crown of your head to the very sole of your feet; that your life would be flooding by that miraculous power of the Holy Ghost, or the Holy Spirit, which ever way you want to call it. It’s the same: the Holy Spirit of God that dwells within us.
The Bible plainly says, “…greater is he that is in you, than he that is in the world.” [John 4:4b]

Rescue Mission Sermon July 27, 2002
Praise the Lord! How many love the Lord tonight? [many respond in the affirmative] God is good! The Bible says He is worthy of all praise. [Revelation 4:11]
I’m thankful for a God that hears and answers prayer. I’m thankful for a God that says, “Let not your heart be troubled: ye believe in God, believe also in me. In my Father’s house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you. And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also.” [John 14:1-3]
