"GOD ON THE MOUNTAIN IS STILL GOD IN THE VALLEY!"
God on The Mountain..
"GOD ON THE MOUNTAIN IS STILL GOD IN THE VALLEY!"
Last night at the Discipleship class at the Georgia Prison I volunteer at a lady Correctional Officer Sergeant came in and asked me to come with her. She took me to another room.There sit 4 men both black and white guys then she with tears in her eyes asked will you please speak with these men and pray with them. I was shocked as she was a tough no-nonsense type of Correctional Officer Sergeant, the “Shorty Talcum” of the Rock at UCI back in the day.She then left and as I talked with the men and each one shared with tears and that brokenness I had not experienced in many years, I felt their pain.
One man from Michigan had a newborn baby in the hospital born without Kidneys and also his dad had just informed him he had a terminal illness. One of the other men shared his new born baby boy was in ICU at a Hospital in Georgia and was critically ill. He cried tears down his face as he said he might never get to hold his baby son. Another shared that he had just found out his aunt was close to death with the flu and she was like a mother to him. The other man shared that his mom had just found out she had cancer. By then with tears in my eyes and memories in my heart as I felt The deep pain and desperation of each of this men. Considering where I have been and where I am coming from, I know their pain, I had been there. In that same valley. I shared that it was no accident that the Sergeant Correctional Officer brought them out to share and pray. It was a true God Moment, and that the Lord JESUS CHRIST is more than just our comforter, but our SAVIOR.
Matt. 11:28 8 Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.
That even in that Prison, behind the Razor Wire and High Fence, I knew that no matter how dark, how messed up or how devastating life was that JESUS CHRIST IS THE PEACE AND COMFORT WE NEED. That as we prayed we found “ That God on the Mountain is Still God in the Valley.”
FROM THE JAIL HOUSE TO THE CHURCH HOUSE!
"FROM THE JAIL HOUSE TO THE CHURCH HOUSE: THE LIGHT OF CHRIST SHINES"
Shouts of JOY and VICTORY resound in the tents of the righteous: “The Lord’s right hand has done mighty things! Ps. 118:15
What a day of Joy and Victory as we enjoyed the Wedding of Doug and Zegan who just 1 year ago were in jail and prison.
Their lives devastated and destroyed by drugs and sin. Until they found JESUS in the JAIL HOUSE. The Redeeming Grace of God
Reaches into the darkness of SIN and REDEEMS what Satan and Sin has destroyed and devastated.
This is why Stacy and I LOVE what we do in PRISON MINISTRY. Stacy did the flowers for the wedding, our daughter Bethany did the photography, and it was a true labor of LOVE. Several ex-inmates from the Georgia RSAT Prison Drug Program attended, as did numerous ex-inmates from the County Jail who are part of the Drug Program "Transformation" at Church.
Totally Awesome to See the Power of God's Glorious Grace though Christ in action.
There is a Life beyond Addiction, Beyond the jail cell and beyond the Prison cell.
Jesus proclaims in John 10:10 "I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly."
