I am completely spent- If I am going to be exhausted, I want it to be because I gave my all for Jesus!
- Devil, devil, devil you’re under my feet I’m free –>
- God surprised me last night. I was not expecting Him to move the way that He did.
- When we started worship there was nobody in the room. When I turned around later near the end, the place was full.
- Had my mother-in-law in the service. It was cool to see her taking notes. Guess I don’t have to worry about her telling Tracey that we have missed God.
- We have a couple groups of regular visitors. They better watch out because the anointing is going to get them and they will never leave.
- Once you have tasted of the anointing you can never go back.
- Why would you want to go back?
- For leeks and onions? (reference the exodus)
- Preached the third message of the Download series.
- Preached on barriers to receiving from God.
- It’s time to tear down our idols
- I don’t think I said anything last night that made my wife wince
- Strike that last line. I remember something she told me at breakfast this morning about something I said last night that made her wince.
- I would say it again
- I did not make any references to Muslim virgins though.
- I appreciate everyone following along with me at the beginning of service. God revealed something to me and it was hard to get focused there at the beginning
- Healings
- The worship after service was awesome
- Nuttin like getting sweaty worshiping Jesus
- I dragged a girl on stage to sing. Probably not the smartest thing I have ever done. I hadn’t seen her sing in a few years and it was annoying me.
- Get ready Missionaries! This is only the beginning.
- You know the deal, podcast and photos usual places.

- Jesus is alive!
- Photo of the night –>
- Worship was free from the beginning. Last week there was something hanging over it. This week it was all good
- Great to see the worship team worshiping, not just singing
- Love the new song.
- We had a photo booth set up for Valentine’s portraits
- The will be available next service
- Had guests, as always
- Had some folks saved, delivered and massively touched by the Father’s love
- Had a girl said she felt the Father stroking her face as I prayed
- Some others got powerfully impacted by the Father’s love
- We desperately need to get some children’s ministry going
- Can’t wait till we move to Sunday mornings so we can have the facilities to do that
- Still looking for the right director of children’s ministry
- I have come to realize that not many people want to be in ministry. Lots of folks want to work at a church though.
- There is nothing better than having a lost person tell you after a message that the entire sermon was for them.
- I am expecting even more words of knowledge for healing
- God has been challenging me to study and step out in healing. I will keep calling them out as long as He keeps on healing the sick!
- The Missionaries took over Big Al’s Steak after service
- Made contact with another south Florida church plant. We are going to go visit them next week.
- We are not looking to copy anyone but I don’t want to reinvent the wheel. I am not so prideful as to think I don’t have things to learn.
- I really want the people of The Mission to catch the vision of being portable and all the doors it opens.
- Tracey and I laid in bed last night recounting all the testimonies of what God did in the service
- Lives changed
- Kingdom expanded
- Radical lovers of Jesus
- photos
- podcast (eventually)

Look at Wesley’s fresh shirt–> That has to be the picture of the night- Great start to the new series “Download – How to receive from God”
- Talked about positioned to receive
- I am amazed how many people are completely oblivious to their pride
- Their lives can be a complete mess and they still think their stuff don’t stink
- Had a long time podcast listener finally show up
- Lillian killed Lead Me To The Cross
- Worship went long but it was necessary, we wont go on with a funk in the air
- Started the night locked out of our equipment room. I left the house with my wife’s keys oblivious to the fact the church keys were on my key ring.
- Did a dry run of the Valentine’s day photo booth
- Can’t wait to move to Sunday mornings
- Lots of visitors
- Met a dude who just got out of jail lookin to change his life. I can tell that God is gonna do a great work in His life if he sticks around

Jesus is alive!- Someone loves Jesus! Look at that worship —>
- Missions Offering exceeded my expectation
- You need to sow into your calling. Some folks did that last night in a big way.
- I am amazed that people will nearly go broke giving to the evangelist that basically says his anointing is for sale but are too broke to give to win souls.
- Sergio is becoming the master of all things electronic with his mastery of the turn table to loop tracks
- Finished up the Order out of Chaos with a bang
- Last point was worship so we ended the service with another worship set
- The “Dressing like a stripper” comment kind of came flying out of my mouth. I would probably reword that if I had it to do over again
- Oh well
- There was great breakthrough in the second worship set, people were drenched in sweat as they praised God
- I saw people dancing and praising that I have never seen move before
- The depth of your worshp will mirror the depth of you walk with Christ
- The depth of your walk with Christ will mirror your depth of worship
- Sergio worshiped till he was hoarse
- His wife took over and lead worship till she was drenced in sweat
- Plans for Valentine’s day are getting firmed up
- God is setting us up for big things
- Had a bunch of folks show up for the usher meeting
- Need more greeters

worship
- Good crowd
- The more the crowd gets in to worship, the better worship is.
- Worship was great
- Sergio is doing a great job leading
- Every week the presence of God comes, it is amazing
- Preached on serving, submission and tithing, not exactly evangelistic messages
- But the truth is evangelistic. Had some visitors get touched by God for the first time and vow to return next week
- If grace is not the foundation of your teachings you are a legalist
- Anointed altar time
- Lookin forward to the end of this period of fasting
- Definitely lookin forward to some coffee
- Due to technical issues we do not have the podcast to what was probable the best message we have heard in the last 6 months
- You will have to pray in tongues and catch it by the Spirit
- photos here
- Jesus is alive
- Keep prayin about our new location. We have outgrown this place

- <–peepin the super cool bullets
- I say this every week but the presence of God was unreal in the service
- While the guys were setting up I was lost in prayer
- Worship was really tight
- We added a new voice to the worship team and it really fills it out
- They never sounded better
- That new voice got saved in my living room and baptized in a little green inflatable pool
- God does not need a big budget to invade people’s lives
- I was face down on the ground half of worship
- At the end of the third song I knew in my spirit that we were supposed to sing Holy. I said, “Lord, if that is you, you need to confirm that.” Just then, one of the singers on the worship team started yelling “Holy, Holy, Holy, Holy” over and over again. I got off the ground, told Serg to sing Holy and went back to my position
- When we sung the song it was like He entered the room
- I had a bit of a hard time collecting myself after that
- Tracey did not know that she was doing the offering till she got on the stage. She did a great job!
- God totally changed my message the afternoon of the meeting
- It’s His church so, whatever
- Truth be told: I had no idea where I was going half the night. I was trying to follow God
- Bunch of people got saved.
- You know God is in the building when people get saved off a message on fasting!
- Had a guest get baptized in the Holy Ghost
- Another guest who was a family member got radically touched and came back to God.
- Podcast and pics up soon.

- If
there is anything more fun then being a Pentecostal preacher I don’t know what it is
- Saw God move in a sovereign way last night
- Preached on staying free
- If you don’t stay in fellowship, stay in faith, stay in the Word, don’t be surprised that you don’t stay free.
- Lillian killed Holy Night. Really glad we asked her to do the offering song
- Serg asked Lillian to start coming to worship practice
- That girl drives an hour each way! Someone knows the value of the House of God
- I preached too long. Oh well
- Funny how God moves when the preacher prays and asks God what He wants communicated
- After the message God did a sovereign move of deliverance.
- That’s right, deliverance. As in demons.
- Sometimes you have to take authority
- I am remembering what God has spoken to me and declaring it to the world
- Lookin forward to the Christmas service
- Podcast
- Pics
- If any other folks do a recap, link to this post so it will give a trackback.
- Jesus is alive!

- It was my boy’s birthday. Had a cake for him. I love my son!
- I preached a message that is important for all believers.
- I am seeing how thankfulness feeds our future
- Preached myself happy last night.
