Youngest man in whole place, 45 years old, barely coherent. Looked very hard, weeping as he asked Christ into his heart. Led 23 people to the Lord together. Led waiter at cracker barrel to Lord. Also went up to a guy in his car, went through the script. He asked is this for Jesus too, and he accepted Jesus as his Lord. Also prayed with several people who started weeping. University, 2 girls on cellphone. One said I just found out I have cancer, rededicated. Laid hands on her, very receptive. Her demeanor changed.
NH I was talking to a man who was in his 70’s age rank & he was a Baptist minister in his younger age and when I walked in, he was reading the wonderful Book of Psalms. I spoke to close to twenty people & led one to the Lord & I also prayed that she would receive the wonderful Baptism of the Holy Ghost. On the way home in the car I had joy. Spoke with 3 people. 3 people got saved. We went to housing project Streets Walmart-led about four souls to the Lord and then Jefferson Mall three and spoke to so many.It was such an experience.
This man as an elder of a local church. I walked up to him and told him that God had a wonderful plan for his life. He kept going on to tell me every Sunday he was in church, he said he was an elder, and a deacon on a church board. But I just kept going on with script. I asked him if he were to die tonight, would he go to heavean?, and he looked at me and said no! So I lead him to the Lord in less than 60 seconds! NH Prayed yesterday and led 34 people to the Lord and two of the workers at the nursing home. It is so good to see their faces change from sad to happy. I felt so blessed to be able to pray for God’s people. Went to a nursing home today in my area & I believe it was 7 that prayed the sinners prayer-went on own to.
ON August 26, 2008 I was out looking for employment and while visiting a potential job site they were closed for the day. I then asked a woman sitting nearby on the front lawn bench if she had any information regarding the facility hours of operation and after this brief encounter I walked towards my car when suddenly I felt this incredible urge to go back to the woman – I did and proceeded with the salvation script and right there in front of three children Miriam accepted Jesus Christ as her personal Lord and Savior, and continued to smile with a radiance on her face. I walked away so overwhelmed and began to pray for heavens outpouring and blessing from heaven on her life and children. WOW! Hallelujah! Glory to God The Holy Spirit is moving! Thank you Jesus!!! We have been touched by your minitry over the years. we have lots of the videos from the past you have taught on. I have been showing them to people in our home… but on the 26th of Aug 2008 we were watching the web and the annointing came into our home I sat crying and laughing we were all touched.. so keep up listening to God as people are being set free… I pray for the Lord to give both of you His strengh and His blessings… Love you both Frank & Carole
Pastor Rodney, Was at the meetings and went out 4 days with the laborers to bring in the harvest. I had a liver transplant in april 2006 and had HEP-C they said for over 30 years. In April of 2007 the doctors told me I would have to have a 2nd transplant because the hep-c was scarring the new liver I had and giving me soroces of the liver again. Because of insurance issues I had to wait till July for my 2nd annual checkup .I had no strength in my body to do anything but I knew and told GOD I would go out when I got the flyer in the mail about the GAT at Calvary. I began to feel better and went out all those days and came to the meetings and was not tired. You prayed for me that Friday night after I testified I was going that Tuesday the 23 of July for my check up. My liver numbers were the best they’ve been in 16 months and closer to normal than at any time. The doctors told me in all reality that I was supposed to be dead. I have gone through rejection 4 times since my transplant. They told me everyone else dies they did not expect me to make my 2nd checkup. Today I got results from my blood test for the hep-c it has been at the lowest last time in May of 2007 13.5 millon this time it was 116,000 in july 2008. The Doctor said almost as if it wasn’t there I told him it’s NOT, JESUS HAS HEALD ME. I believe it’s all because I’m out as a laborer doing my part in the harvest. I have 2 nursing homes lined up for Saturday the 23 of August in Killeen Texas ,my brother pastors a church there I’m believing for at least ten to come get trained and help that day .I told you we could not quit just because you were leaving and I can’t stop its why Jesus healed me. MY soul goal for Saturday is 300.
This Sunday I was a part of the worship and the choir with the children. We had investing a good amount of time preparing for these songs. I was really excited when the Main Event came because all the kids were so excited to sing for the congregation. Before the children came on we all sang worship and that was amazing. Then the kids came on stage and we sang out special songs. I hope everyone enjoyed it as much as the choir did.
After worship I was to go upstairs and help in hospitality, where we serve the pastors and special guests. This was a privilege to serve the men and women of God. Although I was not in service at all, I was able to hear all the amazing testimonies of what God had done in the peoples lives.
And I think that’s the most important part of serving and helping out in the church. We are all the body and we all have different gifts placed on the inside of us. It’s so amazing to watch everyone pull together for a greater cause, for the salvation and ministering of others.
There is a sweet lady named Sharon that I met a few times while ushering. I hadn’t seen her face before so I started talking to her and making sure she was comfortable and had a good seat. She was somewhat irritable though. But each Sunday I’d see her face, and each time it got brighter and brighter. We’d give each other big hugs every Sunday and I just enjoyed loving on her. I introduced her to my sister and we all talked. Though I wasn’t in service this Sunday, my sister had seen her and talked to her. She asked, “Have you noticed anything different?” And my sister didn’t figure it out. Excitedly Sharon said, “I’m not using my walker anymore!”
At the end of the day, after we all had served and gone home, my sister told me the story. It almost made my entire day. I couldn’t stop thinking about the new growth in Sharon’s life, her transition from using a walker and having a disability to hearing the Word of God and standing on her healing.
The most important lesson I learned was we all work together to make a grand picture. When everyone comes together in unity and in one accord there is fruit that withstands anything.

About four months ago I had a very strong inner witness that I need to share the Gospel script with my friend Kevin.I had been a friend to Kevin for about five years and over the last couple my walk got stronger with the Lord and Kevin didn’t understand how a person could want to spend so much time at church I had invited him a few times but never did he. He lived about one hour from the church I attended one afternoon. pastor preached about the urgency to tell friends and family about Jesus. So the Lord put Kevin on my heart I asked him to meet me for lunch and he did that day. I told him I was not leaving until he prayed the script with me and he did accept Jesus. Then one week later was killed in a car accident in Lakeland, Florida.
“I will never foget the day my life was truly transformed. I lay on the ground laughing uncontrollably for 2 hours. I did not quite understand this laughter, but I told God if this is you I want it. God miraculously healed my heart (spirit) of alot of wounds. I did not kn ow how to get rid of the hurt, but that day God reached down on the inside and took it away. Today I am still receiving deep healing from the joy of the Lord. I believe 2007 is the year GOd will complete that work. When I break out in laughter during service, many do not understand it. My pastor has said God is just continuing to heal my wounds. I pray I never lose that joy. I will continue to be obedient to the Holy Spirit no matter what. Man may never understand. I pray my church here in Mississippi will be free to experience God’s awesome joy. It’s not just about the manifestation, but what is happening on the inside of that person. If only they could see with spirit eyes. I will eternally be greatful for the joy and freedom I received that day in Tampa on the USF campus in 1999. Thank you for letting the Holy Spirit have complete control.
First time ever–Christians for 16 years– It was my first time going soul saving. I was kind of afraid and didn’t think I would get many saved. My goal was 5 and I got 3 people saved. I was with my leader Carrissa and I was getting a man saved and she was talking on the man’s phone with his friend and got him saved
I am one of the RBI students that went soulwinning in Fort Walton Beach. I took my car and drove many miles each day all over the pan-handel of Florida to win souls. After getting back to Tampa I was disappointed to find out that I did not recieve gas money reimbursement but I did not get offended. I chose to right it off as seed for the harvest of souls. The Sunday morning after returning from Fort Walton, Pastor Rodney said, “I want you students that went to Fort Walton and made a sacrifice to know that God is going to reward you for your sacrifice.” I claimed that Word and believed it. The very next day I sent my boss an e-mail to request off two more weeks of work so that I could also go to the Jacksonville and Greensborough Great Awakening. I called to see if he recieved the e-mail and I was expecting him to be unhappy about me wanting so much time off especially after being gone for eight days already. He said that he was able to give me the time off and that he was going to give me a raise! That raise would pay for all the gas, oil change, etc., and time off work from Fort Walton in just a few months of being paid at the new rate of wages. Thank you Jesus!

I submitted a testimony on the reality of the power of God and its lasting effects, but also want to praise God for the fire of the Holy Spirit that touched me way back on July 18, 1995 in St. Louis, Mo. And it literally has fueled my walk with Jesus and that fire has never decreased, but only increased all these years on into where we are now in March of 2007! When His fire touches you, you just can’t ever be the same ever again! In the meeting, some pastors were testifying, but I began to get lost in the Presence of the Lord until I knew I was in the meeting, but in the Spirit the Lord gave me a vision of the ministry that was to be birthed in my life. I could hear the people in the meeting, but I found myself at a major intersection in my city where if you face on east you are looking towards Belleville, IL where I live and if you turn and look west, that street changes names and you are looking to the city of East St. Louis, IL.
I saw myself in the middle of that intersection facing my city, standing straight up with arms straight out to my sides and palms facing outward (very much like the position of Jesus on the cross). Before me were a large number of people and as I looked, I saw fire flowing out of my mouth and from the palms of my hands into the people and they were swept to the ground; there seemed to be power surging through them from their heads to their feet and back again, over and over. Then they stood up and went everywhere: into schools, workplaces, their churches, homes, etc., and some even to other cities, States and Nations. They had a flame of fire, white hot, over their heads and I didn’t understand ( I was only a few years old in the Lord), so I asked the Lord what that flame was above their heads. Immediately I saw the letters L-O-V-E appear in the flames on them, and knew and understood that this was real Revival fire: a burning, consuming love and passion for Jesus! And wherever these people went, they carried the fire and touched others with it who in turn were ignited with love for Jesus. I turned and faced East St. Louis and the same thing happened there as well. There’s a little more to the vision, but when it was over the fire of God came in my feet, hotter and hotter until I knew if I didn’t do something they were going to burn up! I had to move! I began to work my way down to the front, which took some time (there were around 8,000 in the meeting) and for some reason no ushers or security stopped me.
There was a large area around the platform, and the fire was so hot now that I began to run in long circles around the auditorium shouting, “Fire!” over and over again. Little did I know, but several others had the fire in their feet as well and had made their way down at the same time, so we all began to run together shouting about the fire of God! I recall Pastor Rodney saying for us all to run in the same direction, “that all things may be done decently and in order”. 🙂 When we stopped, we all fell under the power and just laid there, and I don’t recall for sure if it was Brother Rodney or another minister who prophesied that those who were running that night, the Lord was going to send to the nations to run with the fire of God. That was July of 1995; seven days before in a meeting the Lord both healed me of asthma and called me to the ministry. Then this vision and touch of the fire, followed by the Lord speaking to me the next day in the meeting about the mighty revival coming to the St. Louis Metro-East area. That vision and touch of fire has fueled my walk with God, my witnessing and lay ministry I did from then until March of 2006 when I was ordained. The Lord was building a strong foundation in me all these years, but the fire has always been there to touch people who are hungry for Him.
I close my testimony with this: I asked the Lord later why I didn’t see as many people touched, really touched and ignited by the fire the way my heart longed to see. And He brought me back to the significance of the position I saw myself in in the vision, standing with arms outstretched to my sides, the way Jesus hung on the cross. And He told me as clear as anything that I would only see the fire flow in great measure when I was in the place Paul spoke of in Galatians 2:20, counting myself crucified with Christ and that it was not I who lives but Christ living in (and through) me; dead to self and sin, but alive to God and the Spirit. The fire that fell in the early church, is the same fire that has fallen on all who have hungered for it down through history; it’s the same fire that you hear Brother Rodney talk about that fell on him when he was 18 years old and so hungry for the fire that he told the Lord, “Either you come down and touch me with your fire or I’m going to die and come up there and touch you.” That was the cry of his heart and the Lord met him. It’s the same fire that fell on me and has not waned over more than a decade, but has increased more and more, and now the Lord is opening many doors for me, and the time has come that I am watching that vision from 1995 begin to come to pass here in my city and this area. The fire has been burning in me, purifying my heart and life, and cooking up a ministry over all these years that isn’t a microwave ministry, but one that is oven-baked like a good home cooked dinner that has so much more taste and substance than a frozen dinner that takes 3 minutes and it’s ready. So catch this from my testimony: The fire of God is real; it lasts; if you keep it stirred up yourself, it will change the course of your life forever, but you must not only enjoy the passion it brings. Allow it to burn out of you all that is contrary to the Word of God and all that is not pleasing to the Spirit of God, and may your highest and greatest goal be to let it consume everything until there’s nothing left of you for the world to see, but Jesus. To God be the glory! Rev. Bryan E. A, Anointed Love Ministries, Belleville, IL
