2 Chr 5:13-14 It came even to pass, as the trumpeters and singers were as one, to make one sound to be heard in praising and thanking the LORD; and when they lifted up their voice with the trumpets and cymbals and instruments of musick, and praised the LORD, saying, For he is good; for his mercy endureth for ever: that then the house was filled with a cloud, even the house of the LORD;14 So that the priests could not stand to minister by reason of the cloud: for the glory of the LORD had filled the house of God.(KJV)

Thank you Winfield Park & Recreation

We would like to thank the Winfield Park & Recreation for the use of the community center.

God has truly blessed us.

December 9 was our last service at the Rec center.

Shown here is Brother Dewayne to the left, Brother Todd Scott center & Brother Randy Smith during special singing.

God is GREAT! Joan's testimony

Yes! He has done it again---amazed us all!

Our theme or subtitle to this blog has been "All things are possible with God", which has came to pass again.

Let me tell you the details, about what God has done for us & how He works in mysterious ways!

We have been meeting in Winfield Recreational Building since October. We have been looking , searching actually for a building we could use on a more permanent basis through the week. This is so we wouldn't have to set up, then break down equipment, before & after service each Sunday. Also we had a set time to be in & out each Sunday. Everything we found to rent was out of our financial range at the moment.

Now, let me tell you a little about my back ground. I was born again when I was 19 years old ( about 19 years ago). I knew in my heart that God was real & he had changed my life FOREVER! However, I had been raised Primitive Baptist ( this certain group did not believe in the born again experience & was very strict upon the teaching of predestination). So my Father was very upset with me to say the least.

Matt 10:37 He that loveth father or mother more than me is not worthy of me: and he that loveth son or daughter more than me is not worthy of me.(KJV)

Matt 10:38-39 And he that taketh not his cross, and followeth after me, is not worthy of me.39 He that findeth his life shall lose it: and he that loseth his life for my sake shall find it.(KJV)

So anyway, I have been having the same repetitive dream through the last 19 or so years, which at the time seemed so impossible ( I've had this dream about 3 or 4 times in which I told Brother Dewayne about at the time & we dismissed as unusual but nothing more).

I would dream that we were in the little Primitive Baptist church house, with the hard wood floors, the pews all lined up on the sides in the front facing the speaker, and long rows on each side when you came through the entrance. Except it was a spiritual service like we have in the Church of God. And the building was FULL!

Now, back to the original story. We have been looking for a building to have church in.... Brother Todd Scott was going to work one day & took a short cut & turned around & there it was, an empty church house.. Well, Brother Todd knew the people next door & asked about the building & they said they might rent it to us. So an appointment was made to meet Friday night with the Trustee.

Brother Dewayne , Brother Todd, & I met with the Trustee that night. As I walked in the building I knew this was the place. I was trying not to get too excited about the place. It was a primitive Baptist church, with the hard wood floors, pews lined up the same, just like my dream. I didn't even realize it at the time , but I just leaped in my spirit! God is sooo Good!

Sunday night Dec 9

The Fayette Church of God of Prophecy invited us (Winfield Church) to be with them Sunday night for their Christmas banquet. Brother Lowery prepared Bar-b-que for the whole crowd.

Youth director Sister Stephanie Lowery organized a very good service, to the theme" Following in His footsteps". We all had a wonderful time!

Special thank you to Brother Leland & Sister Gail for their friendship!

Sunday Dec 9

We had a great week & a glorious Sunday! Praise God for His blessings!

We had 23 in attendance & 3 new visitors this week. God is GOOD!

Ps 107:1515 Oh that men would praise the LORD for his goodness, and for his wonderful works to the children of men!(KJV)

God works in mysterous ways!

Isa 45:1515 Truly, O God of Israel, Savior, you work in strange, mysterious ways.(TLB)

Oh!! I have a testimony.....But I must wait to tell you the whole story later. God definitely
works in mysterious ways.

Please be in much prayer for our church. We think we may have a empty church building in the city limits of Winfield that we may can rent.

Please pray for God's will. We have been meeting at the community center at each Sunday, but if we can rent a building we could expand our scope of ministry for God. It is in His Hands.

Mark 10:2727 And Jesus looking upon them saith, With men it is impossible, but not with God: for with God all things are possible.(KJV)

Home group meetings successful!!

Praise the Lord!

This week was the beginning of our home meetings, we met twice, once at Carol Beard's home Tuesday night with 14 in attendance, then at Beth Smith's home Friday Night with 22 in attendance.

God's Spirit was among us in a real way! We prayed, sang, & worshiped in the Word of God together. People wept before God's presence. Thank you LORD for everything you've done already!!!

God is doing something Wonderful in Winfield Alabama. People are being delivered form drugs, & alcohol addiction, among other things. People's lives are being restored!

Prayers are being answered instantly!!!
2 Chr 7:14 If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.(KJV)

Praise the Lord we had a wonderful service Sunday morning.

Brother Todd taught on Debra ( we are studying "Great Women of the Bible" series)

The children's Sunday school class brought the first worship song/drama of the day, "I'll Stand' by Michael W. Smith.

Brother Dewayne Smith led worship, then Brother Todd Scott sang "I'm building a bridge".

Brother Randy Smith sang "I've got more to go to Heaven now, than I had yesterday".

Brother Dewayne Smith opened the Word with the message "Do you know who He is?"
based upon:

Matt 16:13-20When Jesus came into the coasts of Caesarea Philippi, he asked his disciples, saying, Whom do men say that I the Son of man am?14 And they said, Some say that thou art John the Baptist: some, Elias; and others, Jeremias, or one of the prophets.15 He saith unto them, But whom say ye that I am?16 And Simon Peter answered and said, Thou art the Christ, the Son of the living God.17 And Jesus answered and said unto him, Blessed art thou, Simon Barjona: for flesh and blood hath not revealed it unto thee, but my Father which is in heaven.18 And I say also unto thee, That thou art Peter, and upon this rock I will build my church; and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it.19 And I will give unto thee the keys of the kingdom of heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt bind on earth shall be bound in heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven.20 Then charged he his disciples that they should tell no man that he was Jesus the Christ.(KJV)

It was a great day! Praise God for two in the alters praying this morning & another conversion during the week!!!!!
