Good morning church family!

Yesterday was another awesome day in the house of the Lord. I want to cut right to chase this morning. Right after worship, before I began the message, I asked everyone to bow their heads and close their eyes. I then asked if anyone in the house was going through a difficult time currently. If we had 100 people in the worship center, we easily had 75 hands go up. Take a moment to sit in that statement.

The overwhelming majority present in our church family admitted publicly they were struggling with some sort of difficult circumstance. Now, this is the point I want to make this morning. At the time of response, I saw something that both broke my heart and motivated me. I saw multiple people almost waiting for someone to come and pray with them. I saw many people looking like they wanted to go pray with someone but remained in their seat. It was as if some were waiting for one more person to move until they moved. Church, why wait? What if you are the person that someone else is "waiting" on? "Well, preacher, I don't believe church is any place to make a show." Alright, but whether we are in church or anywhere else it is always the right time and place to follow the Spirit's guidance and conviction. If you had no leading to do anything then honestly I am not speaking about you here.

But for those who know what I am talking about. For those who felt what I saw. Stop waiting. Be the move that others are waiting for. Do so under the authority and direction of the Holy Spirit. Then, watch God work!

I also want to mention that last night we had over 50 men come together in the name of Jesus. Over 50 men intentionally called out to Him. The altar was full of men broken for their home. Remember men, the work has been assigned, the work will be attacked, but through Jesus the work can be accomplished! Go to work!

I love you Cedar Grove and I cannot wait to see you again. Happy in the Lord, amen. Buh-bye.
