1/31/15: Mark 4:3—”Listen! Behold, the sower went out to sow.”

Praise the Lord for His continuation on this earth! Today we went door-knocking and we are overflowing with joy for what the Lord did. Saints from Arlington, Houston, and College Station joined the team and the saints here in Huntsville for prayer, coordination, fellowship, and much enjoyment of the Lord before door knocking. Fourteen teams of 3-4 went and visited fourteen apartment complexes, with some high school and college students door-knocking for the first time. How encouraging! After we had a corporate dinner, we had a sweet overflow meeting. One notable highlight was one college student’s first experience of leading a person to receive the Lord; he was so happy he did not have the words to express how wonderful his experience was. Total for the day: 120 people received a New Testament Recovery Version and at least 10 people received the Lord. Hallelujah!!

2/1/15: Hymn #595 Stanza 1 There is always something over, When we taste our gracious Lord; Every cup He fills o’erfloweth, Rich supply He doth afford. Nothing narrow, nothing stinted, Ever issued from His store; To His own He gives full measure, Running over, evermore, To His own He gives full measure, Running over, evermore.

Hallelujah, there is always something over! This week has truly been a week of filling and overflowing. What a privilege untold to be able to supply God’s seeking ones with a Bible. We are very much encouraged in seeing how the Lord is superabundantly able to do above all we can ask or think. Praise the Lord! We are also very thankful for the dear saints here in Huntsville. We really felt at home here in Huntsville enjoying the saints portion of Christ through prayer, singing, fellowship, and hospitality. The Lord has gained more building this week! Today we had a wonderful time enjoying the feast in the table meeting and a time of building in the prophesying meeting. We had a very delicious love feast afterwards with all the saints. Later in the afternoon we went to Huntsville State Park to enjoy a time of singing, recreation, and ministry reading with five students we contacted at the campus join us. Afterward two of the girls that we contacted spent some time at the saint’s home and really enjoyed a time of fellowship and prayer. Lord gain these these students for your purpose!

2/2/15: Today we started our 150 mile drive southeast to Beaumont. Beaumont is a locality with about 20 saints. The main campus here is Lamar University with about 15,000 students. As soon as we arrived in Beaumont we headed to the campus to set up our BfA table. The Lord really had a way to draw many students to the table and they came to receive their free study Bible. Since we ran out of ministry books in Huntsville many were open to come back later in the week to receive their ministry books. In total 72 Bibles and 38 ministry books were given out. In the evening we spent time resting, meeting the saints, and had delicious dinner.

Phil. 2:15b-16a—”among whom you shine as luminaries in the world, Holding forth the word of life.”

Prayer burdens:

  • Many warm doors we visited would continue to be open for further visitations by the saints
  • A hunger for the truth would stir in each one of the Bible/ministry book recipients
  • Connections through follow-up contact would be established with the local saints
  • Lord keep drawing His seeking ones to Himself and into saints homes
  • The Lord keep us in the enjoyment of Himself as we travel to Beaumont
  • The Lord would supply us with His all-sufficient grace for the remainder of this gospel trip
  • The Lord shine in the hearts of students, by enlightening the eyes of their hearts
  • That the Lord would grant us solid connections in our short time here
