The Old Mother who start singing a Hymn and all would join in, Oh how she would sing from the soul. and Start off something like this, "Giving Honor to God who is The Head of My Life" I did something the other week, and The Lord has worked with me, and I got to Testify, I Was talking about someone in The Church , I was down right "GOSSIPING", I was wrong. and I will call the person name out and ask them to forgive I was wrong please forgive ME AND charge it to my head and not Heart.:pensive: and The power of GOD would Be in That Place and The tears would start to fall,

Then another would start singing another hymn and we all would join in, and they would stand and begin, lead BY THE SPIRIT Of GOD, and They would start Confessing How GOD dealt with them, were they had done wrong and They would ask the "congregation" to help them bow down to pray and ask God to forgive me, and You hear the congregation say "LORD have MERCY" on US! not them but on US! And Another hymn would start, then another, then a son, Then a daughter, a husband, a wife, no preachers no deacon, no Praise leaders, and Then some of the children confessing what they had done wrong, No Leaders their, No church leaders interfering or Moderating, But GOD! and "GOD ALONE"

I miss those night services sometimes there until 1 AM, No announcements, no teaching, no preaching , no Prophesying , No tongues, no Kids school nurseries, every body had a song, and we all would join in! and at one of those events, was the 1st. I ever saw anyone get saved, a girl who lived across the street I lived on, growing up, we are in Grammar school she Jump up and Start Howling and running saying Thank you Jesus and Start Crying, my mother said to me She just got "THE Holy Ghost" I was grown and the age of 26, then I realize what she went through, over 16 years ago.

[Our Children went to Same "University" and Graduated together In "Virginia".] "her son my daughter."

And she experienced and Her Parents, attended my "Trial Sermon 1977" the whole neighborhood, all kinds of denominations lived in our neighbor hood.
A Full house, and All of those Old mothers of The Church from every where! and The Old Mothers sitting on The front Pews, Jumping up and Shouted "That BOY GOT IT" Preach Boy! I miss those days.
The Testimonies days.

…"Planted in the house of the LORD, they will flourish in the courts of our God. In old age they will still bear fruit; healthy and green they will remain, to proclaim, “The LORD is upright; He is my Rock, and in Him there is no unrighteousness.”…

And I am "PloughBoy" and I am, still, "Carrying The Mail'

Note: one of My first sermons, delivery to a Group of PASTORS only: 300 strong.


"I am Just, The Mail Carrier Delivering The Mail, I did Not make The Bill Just Delivering The Mail" , so do not get mad with me! " [about in the year about 1979.} and "The T
heologians" where all there and "The Doctors of Divinity" were there too! and no "Dime store Cowboys", The Old pastors called them "JACK LEG Preachers and Ministers" and in my beginnings they told me: They called my name and said "DO NOT BE A JACK LEG preacher or Minister"

and they made me cry a many of days, I learned Quick I read the BOOK and studied every "WORD" in that BooK! Learn what the word "I", "us", "Me", "no", "they", "is", every little "dot and Title" I relearned every word in the Book, I read dictionaries all Kinds I read them, I read "ISBE" I read them. Lexicons Hebrew and Greek I skip and lot of meals and saved my pennies and dimes I lost weight to buy books. I learn the Hebrew and The greek Alphabets so I could Translate by myself "The Textus Receptus", I did used the "Englishmen greek concordance and The Englishmen Hebrew Concordance" I was going be better than the Grads from "Harvard, Yale, Princeton" even "OXFORD" in other words this Boy was going to know more about the Bible than "THE POPES" themSelves and then I ran upon The Man "WILLIAM TYNDALE" and The prayers began, and all of those old Mothers in the churches in The neighbor hoods, pray to God on my behalf, That I will know this Book in a way that GOD wants me to know it, and all those Old women, prayed for that alone for me nothing more, and let that be known, your Book God, like You want him to be!

My mother would tell me, they praying for you, that you know that Book and help to speak in a way, He God wants you To Speak! and Not to please any man!

They got you on the praying wall in "ISRAEL" They took it there in person!
I am PloughBoy, it has not been easy, I have fought and lost many Battles, I have been wounded and I have been lied on I have cried a many days my knees have "Buckle under me" from the pain the "SPIRITUAL Wounds" and Gotten up with a Song in my heart and A message to give, and the doors were open, they have said He cannot go on, But GOD lifted me and have Given a "SPIRITUAL Power" that will raise The dead. but I loved them anyhow! Because I
would hear his voice to tell me loved them anyway, my reply then "LORD HELP Me" to love them anyway, because I can't, I need you to help me Love them Anyway!
Then before I know it he has empowered me to Love them Anyhow!


They have said how do you do that! Not me But GOD!

American Standard Version
I returned, and saw under the sun, that the race is not to the swift, nor the battle to the strong, neither yet bread to the wise, nor yet riches to men of understanding, nor yet favor to men of skill; but time and chance happeneth to them all.

and then again"

…“Do you not know what they are?” replied the angel. “No, my lord,” I answered. So he said to me, “This is the word of the LORD to Zerubbabel: Not by might nor by power, but by My Spirit, says the LORD of Hosts. What are you, O great mountain? Before Zerubbabel you will become a plain.":pensive:

You must know who the enemy is, Then you know where you must take The Battle too! And How to Approach the Battle, The One, that GOD has Put you in.:pensive:

PloughBoy, and I am carrying the
Mail
