I was able to teach at a Calvary Bible Institute for three
evenings. As always, it was challenging to get in front of an audience and
speak. But with the grace of God I was able to teach the module, Power of the
Word, with confidence. My favorite part of the teaching was when we got to
dissect and study a passage of scripture together by using the inductive study
method, which is observing, interpreting and applying the Word of God in our
lives. His word came alive and we left on the last night with encouraged and
revitalized spirits knowing that God’s Word and His promises are always true.
I also had the privilege to see how God began to reveal
destiny and purpose in the lives of the young adults from the Sonshine Center.
Like most new things, it was very challenging to get the Royalty Meetings
started and perseverance was definitely the key. The focus for the meetings was
directed toward the young ladies. For six Saturdays we met for lunch, a group
discussion about the journey into womanhood and the discovery of purpose and
destiny. After all this, both the young men and the ladies were able to choose
a one-hour class of singing, dancing or abstract painting. The end goal was to
help them reveal a passion for one of these areas and begin their discovery
journey for what God has deposited in them. I am certain that this is only the
beginning of a long journey. But what I was able to witness on the last night,
God doing amazing things such as healing their hearts and unveiling destiny to
be walked into, made all the sacrifices worth it all! A young lady’s words
after our time of ministry on our last day together are still echoing in my
mind. With tears streaming down her face she said, “Thank you for everything.
God is never late. He is always on time. What He has done in me I can now share
with other people He brings in my life.”
Powerful time of ministry with the girls! |
