It sure was a pleasant change this week with the? ? HOT weather.? When the meetings began 4 weeks ago, the temperatures were in the 40’s and now it’s in the 80’s.?
Monday night was pretty reserved in anticipation of the prophecy study with Bro. Ralph.? The choir sang great and then a group of bluegrass/mountain gospel singers sang a few songs.? Then the preacher got straight into the message.? He continued the study on the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse.?
We studied for about an hour and a half and it was great!? Bro. Ralph keeps up with current events and explains how they correlate to Biblical prophecy.? He explained of how the world was being prepared for the one-world government.? He talked of the exponential increase of natural disasters, famines and disease.? It’s sort of disturbing studying about these things but thank God the believers won’t have to face the tribulation.? I can’t imagine things getting much worse than they are now, but I don’t want to be around when it happens.
Tuesday night was just awesome.? The choir really got the crowd going and the Holy Spirit started moving in a mighty way.? ? The Shelton Family, backed by the choir, sang the final song with the campmeeting choir and it couldn’t have went better.
Then the New Morning Quartet from Madison County sang and God poured his annointing on them.? In the previous meeting in 2006, this group sang almost every night and God really used them.? Tonight was the first night the group was able to sing in the meeting, but God chose to bless us through them again.? They started by singing Kyla Rowlands’ “My Home Is Not For Sale” and then proceded to sing “When He Reached Down His Hand For Me”.? The latter song really blessed the crowd and they encored the second and third verses over 10 times.? God really poured out His Spirit and people were shouting and praising Him in a glorious way.
God kept stirring while the singing continued and Bro. Ralph came forward and gave an altar call.? I believe there was close to 2000 in attendance tonight and the altars were filled with what looked like well over half the crowd.? The aisles were full of people praying, not counting the numbers in the large altar area.? It was really overwhelming to see so many people on their knees praying at the same time.?
After a few congregational songs, Bro. Ralph closed the meetings.? This was bittersweet because you don’t want to see the meetings end, but at the same time, you are so tired in body (and so behind in your work at home) that it’s sort of a relief.? I thank God for the great meetings that? my family? got to participate in and as always it was a treat for me to get to play for all of the services.? I was honored to be asked again this year and it was something that I took very seriously.? It makes me wish that I was able to travel with the crew and do this full-time, but God has other things in store.? I don’t know exactly what yet, but so many doors have opened for my family in the recent months where we can spread the gospel that I’m anticipating what will happen next.?
Thank you to so many that came up and said you were reading my website.? It’s encouraging to actually meet the people that actually read what I have to say.?
