Thursday night was simply gorgeous.? You couldn’t have planned for better weather.? Our usual pianist for the meetings had to be out of town for the rest of the week, so the pianist from my church filled in and didn’t miss a beat.? Beverly Mitchell is one of the smoothest piano players in our county and she did a great job tonight.
Special singing was by a local group.? Bro. Ralph then got up to preach.? His crew had set up a projector so that he could use a visual presentation for the sermon, but he said that God had led him in a different direction so the equipment wasn’t used.? I have deep respect for a preacher that will follow God’s plan and get everything else out of the way.
He preached what I considered a continuation of the previous nights message.? He gave examples of people on their death beds reaching for Jesus or trying to put their feet in ‘the river’.? The point of the sermon was that this ‘religion’ we have is REAL.? We serve a real God and we have a real Savior.? It was a powerful message!
At the altar call, a trumpet player played “Midnight Cry” along with a soundtrack and it was beautiful.? Then the congregation sang “What? A Day That Will Be”.? People keep filling the altar and there were a few more saved last night.?
Pray that many souls will be reached on Friday night.? The local high school has allowed the youth ministry of the meetings to go into the school and preach.? There should be a huge number of young people for the meeting.? They will be treated with pizza and doughnuts after the service, but most importantly, they will be fed with the truth of God’s word.? If you have a youth group, load ’em up and bring on out to the big tent.?
