October is PASTOR APPRECIATION MONTH. As such, I want to thank God for the ministers in my life who have served as my pastor, or have provided true pastoral counsel whenever it was called for. Rev. Buddy Harrison was Kenneth E. Hagin’s son-in-law, and he served in this capacity as my Pastor until his home-going in 1998.

From then on, a number of Godly men have served as pastoral voices in my life, and I thank all of them for their input and assistance. To say I “appreciate them” would be a tremendous understatement. When I needed them, they were always there for me and my wife Ethel, and I know they will continue to be there for us if and when we call. I rejoice in knowing that their unselfish help for this man of God will be richly rewarded in heaven someday soon.  

He who finds a wife finds a good thing, And obtains favor from the Lord. Proverbs 18:22

October isn’t just Pastor Appreciation Month; its also my wife’s birth month.  October 06 is her birthday, and I am led to primarily devote our October COLD WATER as a salute to her.  The fact is that without this woman in my life, this ministry would never have been able to accomplish what has been done by God’s grace. She is God’s perfect gift to me as my wife, mother to our two children, grandmother to our 23-month old grandson, and of course, spiritual mother to hundreds upon hundreds of our pastors and Christian leaders in the Philippines.  

Thank you, Ethel, for being everything I could ever need, want or desire in this life.  I love you more now than ever, and will forever praise God for bringing you to me.  

Stand in faith with us for all of these recent earthquakes in the Philippines to cease in Jesus’ Name. We know these things are prophesied for the end times, but I believe we have the authority to move them elsewhere! 

Agree with us for a steady level of support that continues to increase.  We’re feeding on God’s faithfulness (Psalms 37:3).  As our COLD-WATER newsletters indicate, we’re busy about the Father’s business, reaching, teaching and training brothers, sisters, pastors and leaders worldwide, especially in the Philippines. 

Our goal is to reach at least ONE MILLION SOULS for Jesus in our ministry’s lifetime.  Your partnership enables us to keep reaching out like this, one person at a time.

You have loved righteousness and hated lawlessness; Therefore God, Your God, has anointed You With the oil of gladness more than Your companions.” Hebrews 1:9

When Jesus returned to heaven after His death, burial and resurrection, Hebrews chapter 1 records His magnificent coronation ceremony. In front of all the angels and redeemed old testament saints (called the “captives”: Ephesians 4:8), our Heavenly Father reinstated Jesus at His right hand, declared God by God, with all the privileges and power of Deity restored. Among many accolades heaped upon Jesus that day, one specifically dealt with the issue of love and hate. Jesus loved and Jesus hated. If He did, we should live the same way. Period.  

As I said in last month’s COLD WATER, there is no shortage of teaching on the love of God, and that’s the way it should be. God is love, so are we in this world (1 John 4:8,16-17). Divine Love exhibits characteristics that are clearly pointed out in 1 Corinthians 13:1-8 and Romans 12:12-21. However, that kind of love for God MUST be balanced with hatred for the devil and the sins that so easily ensnare us (Psalms 139:21-22/Revelation 12:9/Hebrews 12:1). How many seminars, conferences or books have addressed this issue? Not many, if any, at least as far as I can tell. Don’t let the devil’s puppets spread all the misdirection on hate in today’s world. His goal is to incite our hatred for each other, instead of our hatred against him. 

Here’s what God wants and needs today around the world – a body of Christ that loves Him AND hates His enemies. You want to channel hatred? Good, so do I! Let’s channel it towards Satan and all his demons – together. Hatred IS scriptural. Just make sure you’re hating what God hates. Never forget this truth: YOU’LL NEVER LIVE FREE FROM DEMONIC TORMENT AND SIN UNTIL YOU LEARN TO HATE LIKE GOD DOES. Jesus said to learn this from Him (Matthew 11:29). Do that, and you’re on solid ground with the Lord!
