Praise Break Report
Come and hear, all you who fear God, and I will declare what He has done for my soul.
Psalm 66:16 NKJV

“Surely I have calmed and quieted my soul; like a weaned child with his mother, like a weaned child is my soul within me [ceased from fretting].” Psalm 131:2 AMPC
Starting a new year provides prime opportunity to assess where you are and where you need to go. I’ve been doing a deep dive the last couple of weeks during our ministry Consecration and Fast, "O Lord Cleanse My Soul", and the Lord showed me how I was holding on to anger about the past. I was angry about how certain things happened – why certain things took so long, and why certain people had not been held accountable for wrongdoings in the way I felt they should have been.
In spending time with the Lord, He confronted me with the fact that if I wanted to move forward, I had to accept what He required of my past. I had to accept the long seasons of waiting and the sacrifices – not seeing them as wastes of time, but as investments in Him and His Kingdom. I also had to accept in my heart, not just in my head, that He is Judge, and He ultimately decides how justice is meted.
He made it clear that if I am to have the future that He has promised me, I have to accept His take on things. I have to accept His process, parameters, and timeframe. Acceptance of these things has allowed me to release the grip on anger, so I can grab on to peace.
Accepting His plan for my life with all its gyrations – past, present and future – is the least I can do, when I know and trust that He is a Good Father, One who loves me more than anyone and knows what’s best for me.
In accepting His plan I can move on, and be free.
For those of you who may feel like I have, I invite you to do the same - accept the Lord and His plan for you - to be free, yes free, indeed.
Blessings,
Minister Ann Pinkney

Let's give Him some Praise!
~ Praise Break Report ~
Thanks to Krystle Waters-Rogers for the following Praise Report!
“So we have all been told God can give someone a Word for you, but you actually have to get up and put in the work!
God starts with giving you a word. So in 2019 I got my first word from a prophet at church. She said 'God said, ‘You need to leave your job, and you will be doing real estate full time. Just trust God.’
I then got a second word from my Spiritual Mom. She said, ‘This isn’t it; I see you with properties and real estate.’ She had no clue at the time I was actually going to school for it.
So, I got the words, but I was still thinking I knew best. I said, 'OK, I will do it part time', and also the pandemic had just happened, so I thought, I will just push back what God said to do.
Then God sent the right connections. I was searching for a brokerage, and I looked at several well-known places, and then I met with someone from a particular realty service, and I knew immediately this was God-ordained and right where I needed to be!
Then God wants to see the work. So in June I finally decided I needed to trust God even in a pandemic and let go of my job! When I say God was just waiting for a FULL YES and Surrender! I sold my first house that July!
God continues to blow my mind! In the beginning of 2020 I said I would be happy if I sold one home this year. I ended the year with $1.6 million in home sales !
God will do exceedingly and abundantly above what you ask!"

This is in no way telling you to run out and quit your job. You must hear God, and from Him for yourself; for His specifics for you.

Salvation or Restoration
If you would like to accept and confess Jesus Christ, making Him your personal Lord and Savior, or if you have turned away from Him to go your own way and wish to return to Him, pray the following prayer aloud:
Dear Jesus,
I believe You are the Son of God.
I believe You died and rose from the dead on the third day.
I believe You are alive and seated at the right hand of the Father.
I believe you died for my sin; paying the debt for sin that I could not pay myself.
Please forgive me for all my sin.
Please come into my heart and my life, and be my Lord and Savior.
I am forgiven. I am now born-again. I am now a child of God.
Thank You, Lord.
In Jesus Name. Amen.
If you have just made Jesus the Lord of your life, contact us so we may celebrate with all of heaven, welcoming you to the family of God.
We would like to send some free information to you to help get you started.
Many blessings to you!
