Dear Family of our Lord Jesus Christ,
Thanks for coming by for a CUP!
I just love that! I find myself doing that more and more, just stopping what I am doing and look to the sky and say, WOW! LORD! WOW! Thank YOU!

Please pray continue to pray for the Bernard family and also please pray for Michelle that she finds the resources she needs to fix her car.
Many, many, have asked about the afternoon espresso, Pastor Paul has been on vacation, the Espresso should return tomorrow Lord Willing, thank you for asking, we are so thankful that you are blessed by FGGAM! For God’s Glory Alone!
Yes, this is an old post back on March 21. What I find such a blessing is with our web site is that you can see what people are reading and how many times a post is being read. Of late people are going back and readiong past articles more than ever at the www.fggam.org web site. The Lord is blessing FGGAM! The Lord is blessing me and you! It is an AWESOME family that is growing everyday at FGGAM! Just a couple of notes before I invite you to read this past post and also some new writings that are posted here toward the bottom of this CUP!
Words must not be wasted…..The Lord has shown me more and more through His Word, and through the Holy Spirit that are Words must be spoken for Him, everything we do must be for His Glory, not ours. God gives us work to do, yes WORK, He wants to make us fisherman of Men. Stop complaining about the condition of the World and get out and be equipped to be fisherman of men. Too many complain about the condition of the world, How do you think God feels? When people decided not to stand in the gap for Him on Biblical issues, how do you think that makes God feel?
Do we ever just stop and think how God feels?
What about those words you will speak today? How will God feel about them?
Last night after our softball game in which Heights Christian Church beat Amistad…….UGH! LOL LOL
I counseled two people late into the night.
Here’s an email I got from Pastor Don Kimbro this morning, he and Dorothy were at the game last night:
Remember the immortal words of Dizzy Dean, “He slud into home, podner.” Nice slide last night, Dewey, But you better be careful. Old men’s bones break easily. God bless.
Love ya,
PD
Okay Bro! Only sliding these days when trying not to get hit by a thrown ball!!! LOL! LOL! So what’s worse an old man sliding? or being hit in the head? LOL LOL LOL LOL Don’t tell Sharon! LOL LOL
God had work for me……..His work that He has assigned me……What work has He assigned you?
As many of you know my life verse is Acts 20:24:
My life is worth nothing unless I use it for the work assigned me by the Lord Jesus.
To fulfill God’s purpose for your life, you must be in the work HE assigned you, not the work you assigned.
When you have a close personal relationship with Jesus Christ you will know the work that He has assigned you. He tell’s you!
It all comes from that personal relationship, with our Father, there is nothing more beautiful, it is not hocus pocus, it is the MIRACLE of MIRACLES!!!!!!
There is nothing like being led by God every step of your day.
Last night God had me hit a triple in softball!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I believe God is blessing me at 58 for what I could not do at 18. Now I want you to listen to this:
This is part of my testimony to you, I am stronger and wiser because of my personal relationship with Jesus. I can hit a ball further now than at 18 or 25, why? Because God wants to use what I am doing to Glorify His name by using me as as a fisherman of men. He is using me on the softball field as an example of his Greatness. Letting my light shine for His Glory. Young men are attracted to an old gray haired man that can still hit and run! LOL LOL LOL LOL LOL
Now I will close with this for today: EVERYTHING, EVERYTHING YOU SAY AND DO MUST BE FOR THE GLORY OF GOD!
What a world it would be if people would be doing the work God has assigned them to do, but their ears are not intune with Him.
LET’S GO BACK TO THIS POST FROM MARCH 21:
What I am finding more and more when you make yourself available to God He will use you in ways that you never dreamed. God sent me to many people yesterday in person and by phone! I thought to myself yesterday what would have happened if I would not have made myself available to God?
What would have happened to all these people?
This is now my life in Jesus Christ!
I was in bed by 7pm!!!!!!!!!!!! LOL LOL!
God brought me to FGGAM to walk and drive the streets for Him and also use the Radio, TV, and internet. On Tuesday, PRAISE GOD we had a record amount of hits to the FGGAM web site. http://www.fggam.org God has told us that this site must be a site of news His people need to know and for encouragement in your walk with Jesus Christ.
What would happen to this world if more of us would make ourselves available to the World for God?
We would turn this world upside down for Jesus Christ, that is what would happen.
Everywhere I go now For God’s Glory Alone, I give all the love of Jesus!
Like yesterday, the young soldier eating at The Grill, he was wide eyed when I told him that the Lord had given me a few words for him..Don’t give in, don’t compromise, and I prayed over him! He was very joyful with our short visit.
The Lord brought to me two lovely ladies from the Fresno, Calf. area yesterday by phone, and I brought them together by phone! The Lord had told me, bring these two ladies together so they can pray for each other. Thank YOU LORD!
We are to pray over each other and share the love of Jesus Christ.
Do not be bashful to share the love and message of Jesus Christ! AMEN!
My dream is I am walking through the Grocery store and all I see is people praying over each other!!!!!!
Now that’s REVIVAL!
I am going to tell you again, I have had nobody back away from me when I pray over them and love on them!
When you are filled with the Holy Spirit and your light shines brightly, people melt. It is an amazing thing of God! For God’s Glory Alone!
Let us walk for Jesus………let us make ourselves available to the King of Kings! AMEN PTL!
And Jesus said to them, ‘Follow Me, and I will make you fishers of men.’ (Mark 1:17)
When Jesus spoke these words to Simon and Andrew, He essentially made it clear that it wasn’t His desire to conform His message to their lifestyle, but to instruct them to adjust their lives to His message. He didn’t promise them worldly riches, but assured them that their lives would be enriched with power to be useful to God in ways they couldn’t be without following Him. Thus, Jesus taught them that life isn’t about seeking to fulfill selfish pursuits; it’s about making ourselves fully available to God—to be used according to His purposes for us.
When Simon and Andrew were called by Jesus, they didn’t know Him personally, yet they knew enough to realize that He had something they were in desperate need of. Most people would be reluctant to follow someone they knew so little about, but these men didn’t hesitate to go with Jesus. They were willing to walk away from everything in order to be with Him. Nothing was more important to them at that moment than to obey Jesus’ voice. Hence, they followed Him “immediately” (v.18).
We must be willing to respond to Jesus in the same way. Nothing should take His place in our lives. Nothing should be regarded as more important than doing what He says. We must cling to Jesus’ words like glue.
May 7, 2013. How about some enthusiasm for this new season? Some of this is a total surprise to you. You made a serious mistake in thinking it was time for you to step aside and outside your destiny. Don’t let your faith dwindle. It is by faith that all things get done. Some have faith only in themselves. Others have faith in secular and worldly guidance. But you have faith in Me. With this faith from Me, you will accomplish the impossible. Your life will continue to be very successful. Only believe.
Jeremiah 29:11 (NLT) “For I know the plans I have for you,” says the LORD. “They are plans for good and not for disaster, to give you a future and a hope.” Ras Robinson
