If you missed it you missed an awesome time in the Lord at Urban Empowerment's 4th year Anniversary service.
The first message was titled God's Going to Give You Two Babies and it was brought by the highly esteemed Pastor Maurice Williams from KC, MO. Pastor Williams is the spiritual father of our own Pastor Christine Woods and it was easy to see where her powerful preaching came from. Pastor Williams admonished us from the story of Joseph. The line to remember most from his delivery? God will always send you a butler to introduce you. Be patient and wait on the Lord. Boast in the Lord and not in yourself. In due season God will give you two babies--the first to make you forget all of your toil and the second to make you fruitful in the land of your affliction.
Then, Bishop Woods' father in ministry, the honorable Bishop Russel L. Freeman brought a mighty Word from the Lord that said Don't Stay in Trouble Too Long. The text was based in Deuteronomy and came from the story of the children of Israel wondering 40 years in the wilderness. The Word was meant to get each of us to take note of the things that we bring to uE that are not in line with the vision of the house. This Word was meant to make us reflect on ourselves and learn to kill anything in us that is not Christ like and that would not promote our Bishop and Pastor's vision for uE. Bishop Freeman released our Bishop and Pastor to Take the Journey. This Word released our ministry into another level.
We will be back on Thursday for a recap of Bible Study and stay tuned for a special guest soon.
G-UP! Ephesians 6:13~18
13Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand. 14Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth, and having on the breastplate of righteousness; 15And your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace; 16Above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked. 17And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God: 18Praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, and watching thereunto with all perseverance and supplication for all saints;

What a awesome time we had with the Lord on Sunday! The word that was brought forth by our speakers was a introduction on the new beginning that the Lord has for uE3. I feel the Lord had us on short field trips for the first 4 years but now He's saying it's time to go on this long journey with building the kingdom! I believe it and I receive it!
