Call for 100 Days of Prayer

Overseer Bishop Randy Howard is asking all those who will to join him in 100 days of prayer. His desire is for God to empower this church into greater ministry avenues than we have ever seen before, and to find our purpose in the kingdom of God for these last days harvest. To quote from Steven Curtis song,"Let us pray let us pray in every where and every way every moment of the day it is the right time."

True Story from Aniston Church

This morning, a church member's son-in-law, Kevin Finch was shot and killed by his neighbor. The incident resulted from a prior incident of the neighbor killing one of Kevin's dogs and because another of his dogs chewed up a sprayer.Thirty-one year old Kevin was going over to his neighbor, unarmed, to tell the man that he would fence his yard so that his dog wouldn't roam free and that he (Kevin) would pay for the repairs to the neighbor's sprayer. When Kevin stepped out in the road between their houses, the neighbor shot him three times. Kevin died before the emergency team could arrive. Kevin leaves a young wife and two small children. Please pray for Elizabeth Finch and her children.

Funny of the Day

A visiting minister was very long-winded. Worse, every time he would make a good point during his sermon and a member of the congregation responded with "Amen" or "That's right, preacher" he would get wound up even more and launch into another lengthy discourse. Finally, the host pastor started responding to every few sentences with "Amen, Pharaoh!" The guest minister wasn't sure what that meant, but after several more "Amen, Pharaohs" he finally concluded his very lengthy sermon. After the service concluded and the congregation had left, the visiting minister turned to his host and asked, "What exactly did you mean when you said "Amen, Pharaoh?"His host replied, "I was telling you to let my people go!"

THOUGHT FOR THE DAY

Only two defining forces have ever offered to die for you:

1. Jesus Christ

2. The American MILITARY

One died for your soul, the other for your freedom.

THIS WEEKS PRAYER

This week focus your prayer on His perfect will for you; surrender your will to His and tune your ear to hear His voice. During this season of Ramadan, be sensitive to the Spirit's leading when you pray for the protection of our nation, President Bush and other government leaders, our military bases and personnel, our borders, major cities, water and food supplies. Remember Israel and the Middle East in your prayers this week. Jer. 29:11 I Thes. 5:17
