Muskogee

Thank you East Gate for another wonderful service. (They set up an area for me to minister before I get there.) We raised our hands and hearts to the Lord this morning. This facility is one of my largest services. We were learning how to speak today. "Death and Life is in the power of the tongue." At the close of the service hands were raised all throughout the room as I asked the question, "How many are believing for a mountain to be removed or a blessing of the Lord to come?" I went around the room laying hands on them, believing, and praying with them.

East Gate Village will be using our CD's on Sunday mornings. (They are having a difficult time getting any of the churches to come.) I am beginning to ask if these services recorded, could be helpful to them. These will be provided free of charge thank's to our supporters, "Life Senders". We continue to expand in ways we never thought possible.

According to the laws of sowing and reaping, let's sow into those who need our help. There may be a time we will need this same kind of help from someone else. It's time to be a blessing!

Wilburton

We were gathering for another great time together. I've noticed that as residents move from one facility to the next, I'm in a enough of them, I usually pick them up in the new one. That happened this morning. I saw a woman with her daughter and her daughter was filling out paperwork. I thought the woman looked familiar and when I asked, she had been in another facility I'm in.

Today we raised our hands to the Lord and worshiped Him. Life in nursing homes can be pretty mundane. When we started to praise the Lord they perked up. One woman yelled out, "Praise the Lord!" It was a great morning in Wilburton.

We are seeing many residents raising their hands for prayer. The question is this, "How many have been believing for something for a long time; Either something you desire or something you want out of your life?" 2016 is the year for breakthrough! Yes Lord, we believe we receive!

Chouteau

We continue to grow in Chouteau. This was probably our biggest group to date. Every time I start to play the hymns of the church, the residents get all excited. I spoke with the activities director after the service and she said, There are only two outside groups coming in. I am one of them and I am the only one bringing in the Gospel. Then I began to realize why they are getting so excited. We continue to bring the Good News. Praise The Lord!

Wagoner

It's so good to see residents come to the service really expecting from God. They are learning that they can depend and trust in Him. We are seeing "Breakthrough" in our lives as we trust Him. At the close of the service we all prayed together. Many, prayed the sinners prayer and others rededicated themselves to the Lord.

This noon I am on the phone. God is doing some marvelous things expanding and strengthening the nursing home ministry. Yes Lord, we continue to: Strengthen The Saved - Save The Lost

Sapulpa/Pawhuska

This morning I went to Arbor Village in Sapulpa, OK. We will be ministering on a monthly basis in Sapulpa. God is so good. This is nursing home #30 and county #17. We are well on our way to completing what the Lord has called us to do.

This afternoon I drove to Pawhuska and the Pawhuska Nursing Home. They were delighted to have us so we will be here in the afternoon at 2pm. This is nursing home #31 and county #18. We are moving into 25 counties in eastern

Muskogee

I was a little early this morning so there was more time to bring in residents. Hands were raised as we sang (shouted) praises to God. We are still looking at "Breakthrough in 2016". We talked about believing in our heart and confessing with our mouth. Everyone got excited about the possibilities for 2016. At the close of the service we prayed together and believed we received! Praise the Lord!

Claremore

What a wonderful time at Autumn Wood. This is a great Alzheimer unit. The staff really cares for their residents. We sang/ministered for approx. 45 minutes as we laughed and cried singing praises to our Lord. Jesus is the way, the truth, and the life but people will not know unless we share the good news.

Pryor

It's always such a joy to see sad faces, depressed faces, come alive with the joy of the Lord. Today, that's exactly what happened. There were just a few in the meeting room when I got there. (If you let that bother you, you might walk out.) As the music played more came in. The staff brought in others that could not come in on there own. With Jesus comes a hope they've never had before. He is The way, the truth, and the life.

I find that the Word of Faith is found in so many places around the Tulsa area and yet you drive just a few miles away and the Word of Faith is not even known. The Apostle Paul said it like this, Rom 10:8, But what saith it? The word is nigh thee, even in thy mouth, and in thy heart: that is, the word of faith, which we preach. Yes, the Apostle Paul was a word of faith preacher. The book of Psalms says, "Death and life are in the power of the tongue." Believing in your heart that God raised Jesus from the dead and confessing Him as Lord and Savour is just the beginning of a marvelous life in Christ. Putting the Word in your heart and confessing it with you mouth, using the promises and blessings of the Word, is a wonderful way to live. This year we are believing for Breakthrough. We will see breakthrough as we believe in our heart and confess with our mouth.

Okmulgee

We are growing in Okmulgee. I have been here enough times that the residents are remembering who I am. We didn't sing as much this time but got into the Word and ministered the Word of faith. They loved it! The Word of Faith takes the Bible literally wherever it can. In other words, when the Bibles says, "Death and life is in the power of the tongue", we believe that what we say literally changes your life. We can follow the Word of God because we believe it is literally true. When Jesus said, "I am the way, the truth, and the life", it's not just nice words or a suggested way to live. It is TRUTH. We closed the service by rededicating ourselves to the Lord. Praise God!

Muskogee

Life in a nursing home is certainly not the best that life has to offer. Let's make sure we provide the best "church" experience we can. I learned something several years ago from a very close friend of mine. He said, "As long as we are breathing God still has a plan and a purpose for our lives." My purpose is to bring the best experience I can into the nursing homes; letting them know, God still has a plan and a purpose for their lives.

We had another wonderful service this morning. It's always good to see tears flowing and hands in the air as we worship our Lord and Savior. At the close of the service a woman asked me if I was only here for and hour. When I said, "Yes", She said, "That's not long enough. What can we do to keep you longer?" When I heard that I knew she was having a good time. She was excited to here more Good News. Jesus said, "I am come that they might have life and that they might have it more abundantly." That is my goal. That is my vision. No matter where you are, in Christ, you can live an abundant life. We continue to:

Wilburton

We started singing with our hands in the air, praising the Lord. This is the year for "Breakthrough". And we have a part to play. We must believe and speak. The Bible says, there is death and life in the power of the tongue. Let's speak life. There were many in the service this morning that did not want the service to be over. I was "bribed" with coffee, cookies, and a recliner - to stay. I love these people!

Tulsa

This was only the third time I've been at this facility. There were several residents who realized they've been in wheel chairs way too long. They asked for prayer. We talked a little bit about their faith. Jesus said, "According to your faith be it unto you." It is a wonderful thing to see people increase their faith. We prayed together and we are believing!

Wagoner

Praise the Lord, there is a new name written down in Glory. We had a wonderful sing time this morning, then looked at how words can change our life, starting with salvation. At the close of the service another hand was raised for salvation.

Stigler

Hugs were in order as we greeted one another and began to sing praises to our God. We are family.
It's been a great first week in 2016. We've been looking at "Breakthrough". There are things in our lives that we've been waiting for for quite some time. This year we are going to see "Breakthrough". I could see "lights come on" as we talked about speaking the right words to experience breakthrough.

Muskogee

We rejoiced and were glad this morning. We had a full house as we brought in the new year with our first service for 2016. Hands were raised as we sang, staff came in and hugged residents. It was truly a wonderful time. We are experiencing "Breakthrough" as we understand there is death and life in the power of the tongue. Let's speak life!

Warner

This morning I was reminded that many times when you enter a nursing home it may seem like you’re walking into an emergency room at a hospital. There can be a lot of time spent in prayer because of mental, physical, and emotional needs. Even though we spent a lot of time singing we also spent a lot of time in prayer. Be ready and willing to change what you thought you were going to do and flow with the Spirit of God. His ways are always right.

Tahlequah

What a wonderful group of people. As I walked into the room I could see that the activities director was bringing residents into the room. We are looking at Prov 18:21 "Death and life are in the power of the tongue, And those who love it will eat its fruit." At the close of the service; one woman rededicated her life to the Lord and two others received their healing. We are:

Gore

Today we began to speak about the power of the tongue. If we want breakthroughs in our life we must speak the right things. Our words must line up with the Word of God. As we were singing many raised their voices, their eyes, and their hands to the Lord. One resident came in the room to get a drink and began to sing with us. After every song she signed the crucifix and began to cry. The Lord is touching lives all throughout nursing care facilities in eastern Oklahoma. Praise The Lord!
