July 4-11 was our summer camp meeting. This camp meeting seemed to be a step above other camp meetings. The week before, the Lord told me two things: “expectancy” and “the next level”. During the week of camp meeting, several people, including Pastor Rodney mentioned going to the next level or a new level.
Due to my work schedule, I came to many of the meetings late. However, as soon as I was seated, the presence of the Lord was there. It’s hard to describe, but it felt like He would catch me up on the night’s events so it felt like I didn’t miss anything.
I was so excited to see one of my RBI classmates; John Hawkins get up and speak. He’s been faithful in the things of God and it is awesome to see him promoted. I know that John is one of many in our class who will be used mightily of God.
It was interesting to hear the different speakers. I hadn’t seen some of them before, but each one had a unique message that was tailor-made by the Holy Spirit for the meetings. I especially enjoyed Joel Stockstill. He spoke on things the Lord had been speaking to me about so his message was especially relevant.
This week of meetings was super charged and I feel that the messages are so important, I’m getting the DVD’s so I can go back and study them. I don’t want to miss anything that the Lord has for me.

America – Our continued Fight for Freedom
Today 234 years old – born 4th July 1776 – birthed out of pain and a hunger to worship freely – wise men with their dreams came from the East, the first winter survived through the red man they were blessed. Thanksgiving a yearly reminder, we were blessed out of their provision. The new land yielding of her bounty, the fight for a new world is made – from east to west, new frontiers, covenants made, trail of tears the red man would also give his blood as covenants were broken.
Over the decades and down through the years through all the pain, sorrow and many tears, many a man would lay down their life for freedoms dream and so while the sword and canon spoke, the pen being mightier than them all - produced a bill of rights, wise fathers penned the constitution. From this constitution we cannot sway – not one jot or tittle can be allowed to be altered. Not even by the highest courts of the land, for if it is altered America no more shall stand.
One nation under God united defeated the enemies might – Our flag was still flying by the dawns early light – propped up by our flesh as men would resist to lower the flag, the broad stripes and bright stars that would signal a nation had been born – tyranny swept aside – the flag was still waving – over the land of the free and the home of the brave.
Many wars were fought on every front even among us brother to brother – the blue and the grey as the red blood flowed – giving way to the red, white and blue – slavery the curse of every family the cry of every mother – brought to a halt – the desire of all to be free. We hold these truths to be self evident – all men are created equal – and from this Declaration of Independence we cannot sway
Ellis Island would be the place where the stranger would come seeking freedom – the lady with the lamp the way beaming – give me your huddled and tired masses – they will find rest on my shores. 13 states that became one nation under God would grow to become a Jubilee of 50 nations within our borders – many times over the years the balance of power would sway – thankfully 3 divisions of government would equally tip the scales – the checks and balances by our founding fathers laid – the dream that all would be equal from a mountain the promise land was seen – that we would not be judged by the color of our skin. America would become the land of Jubilee – the place of the dream
This nation has walked away from it’s plumb line, 3 million plus laws on the statute books find, replacing the 10 commandments – prayer taken out of schools, our people oppressed by drugs and alcohol – slaves to pornography and std’s HIV, millions of unborn babies aborted, while many are trying to not to retain God in their knowledge – the are given over to a reprobate mind, professing themselves to wise they become fools, something has to be done and must be done soon. This cannot be done without Divine Intervention.
This is the day this is the hour – we must hear from Heaven and so now we pray
You have guided us these many years now hear from heaven forgive our sin and heal our land – for you were seen in the watch-fires of a hundred circling camps – altars were built in the evening dews and damps, for you died to make men holy, so we will live to make them free, your truth is marching on.
O sovereign heavenly father above us grant mercy on us one more time – as you have each century – a generation now lost their way – may we still say “in God we trust” and be “one nation” under thee – Heavenly Father we as a generation refuse to give up – we will stand as one – and humble ourself and pray, and seek your face and turn from our wicked ways – You have promised to come and heal our Land – a new Generation is rising up with faith and the anointing to set the captives free and march through the Land and see another Great Awakening - this is our purpose is this is our Goal – IGNITING A GENERATION – for a nation to fulfill it’s call!

There has been a greater boldness in my life in regards to soul winning. I have noticed in my life lately, that I’ve felt lead to tell someone about Jesus and the situation has not been the most conducive, (such as a line in a grocery store or at an exquisite restaurant;) but when given the opportunity to tell someone about the Lord, there has been such a confidence. When I feel lead, I move instantly and it’s almost like I do not have any control! I like that because I think that’s how it should be. I believe that I am developing more in knowing the Holy Spirit and His promptings. His movements become mine.
Soul winning has gone to another level in my life, where I am not just winning a soul, but I am discipline people. I have been holding Bible studies with my wife and it has been great. It’s wonderful to see some of the people you win to the Lord grow in the Lord. It has not just been soul winning, but discipleship. I have the opportunity to see how powerful the Gospel is when heard by a hungry and lost generation; how the Holy Spirit touches the lives of people and causes people to come closer and go on an incredible journey with the Father; becoming a true disciple of Jesus Christ!
I have found myself doing things that I have always dreamed of and heard about in the lives of great men and women of God! I love preaching and seeing the power of the Gospel change lives! It has been truly a blessing because as I help others to know more about Jesus, God sends people in my life to teach me more about Jesus. Revival Ministries Int’l is a blessing from the Lord!

The very first time I ever went out to win somebody to the Lord was the first week of Bible school. I went out with a group of students to the inner city community, but before we went out, they had us in a classroom showing us how to use the soul winning script. They were very bold in saying, “stick to the script.” It was hard at first, but weeks went by and it started to get easier to walk up to someone and say God loves you and has a great plan for your life.
It is an awesome look that people give when they are asked, “priceless”. Talking to them to get to know who they are and what is wrong with them. Some of them are sick or have something wrong with their bodies. When I ask if I could pray for them and they say yes; right when I lay my hands on them, I can feel the anointing or the presence of the Lord coming out of me and going into them. The results of that is when I finish praying for them, and I ask them how do you feel or do something that you could not do before. They say I feel better or the pain is gone and their face is glowing, smiling big, ear to ear, and tears running down their face.
That right there is a blessing to me of being used as a vessel and witnessing the Lord at work. When they start thanking me, I tell them “no, say this after me, thank you Lord Jesus, thank you Lord Jesus.” To teach them who heals them and who to give the glory to. I have learned a lot about people since I started this adventure of soul winning. I am looking forward for the next person who crosses my path and the Lord puts it on my heart to talk to them.

Soul winning is something that is a very big priority in my life now. Ever since I started digging into the Word of God and getting closer in my walk, I have known that I needed to share my faith with those around me. I had a burning desire to get out and tell others about the God that is so great that he would save a sinner like me. The first time that I went out on the street, I went all by myself and did not have a clue what to say.
I knocked on several doors and when the doors were opened, I did not really know what to say. Since that time, I have learned to use the soul winning script from the River at Tampa Bay. It seems too simple to work, but it has changed the way that I share the gospel with those around me. Since that time, I have led hundreds of people through the sinner’s prayer and saw a hunger for God come to life in those I’ve talked to.
I have had the pleasure of leading those I work with and around to the Lord. The boldness to witness grows each time that I go out. I still get nervous every time that I do go on the street, but I do not let that stop me, because God is faithful. I have recently started leading others in my home town in soul winning outreaches and getting them out on the street. We have had several outreaches and saw several come to the knowledge of Christ.
I would suggest to anyone that is saved, to get on the street and let others know who has changed your life. If you know the love of God, how can you hold it in. I know that the hardest part for me was just learning what to say to people, but by using the soul winning script I no longer have to worry about not knowing what to say.
