EVANGELIST BOOTCAMP: New Orleans, LA
Thank You Jesus, Thank You Jesus, Thank You Jesus!!!
I feel like since my plane touched down in New Orleans I've been at evangelist boot-camp. Seconds after disembarking from my plane, Pastor David Johnson and Brother Stacy Mitchell scooped me up and took me to Bourbon Street. We picked up some crosses that are specially designed for the French Quarter (they're plastic and insulated) and began ministering to hundreds of people in the streets. Walking down Bourbon Street I was hit with numerous beads as people were throwing them at the cross from balconies. There were about ten street preachers in total and we had three crosses. Praise God, seven people repented and gave their heart to the Lord!!
Man, the ministry there is heart breaking. So many women try to find worth in the attention their body gets...well God has worth in them that is found in Jesus Christ! People drunk, high, and up to their head in sin would say "Yea, I'm Christian; I love Jesus." If you love Jesus, does your life show it? Are you loving him with your actions? Is your life bearing fruit for God's Glory? If these things aren't happening, it's as if you are nailing him to the cross yourself.
Hebrews 10:26-31
If we deliberately keep on sinning after we have received the knowledge of the truth, no sacrifice for sins is left, but only a fearful expectation of judgment and of raging fire that will consume the enemies of God. Anyone who rejected the law of Moses died without mercy on the testimony of two or three witnesses. How much more severely do you think someone deserves to be punished who has trampled the Son of God underfoot, who has treated as an unholy thing the blood of the covenant that sanctified them, and who has insulted the Spirit of grace? For we know him who said, “It is mine to avenge; I will repay,” and again, “The Lord will judge his people.” It is a dreadful thing to fall into the hands of the living God.
After leaving Bourbon Street we prayed in front of a voodoo shop and rebuked demonic spirits in Jesus' Name!!
Then, the next morning Pastor David asked me to speak at his church. What an blessing, praise Jesus!! Brother Stacy prophesied over individuals and we had an awesome time of fellowship. Thank you Lord for Saints' Fellowship in Harahan, LA! Afterwards we went back to Pastor's house for some Louisiana poboy sandwiches, yum! Then, that night we walked around the French Quarter and invited people to a free spaghetti dinner. What an encouragement to go out and invite people and then see them in the pews! Thank You Lord for leading them. I was blessed to bring a word for the evening service as well. That's why I called this post "evangelist bootcamp" man, they really threw me into the mix! Haha!!
