Great start to the week-end!

• Dear Friends,

What a great start to the week-end! My oldest son, David, and I went to see one of my absolute favorite preachers, Billye Brim, http://www.billyebrim.com, . She was at a quaint, little church at a small town nearby. She has assisted John Hagee head up Christians United for Israel, http://www.cufi.org/ and speaks nationally at Nights to Honor Israel. It was a great time at church. Even though we were sitting in a church setting, when she begins to teach and tell her stories, it was as though we curled up on the couch listening to a dear old friend tell stories. So refreshing and so interesting! This is quite amazing since her message is far from "warm and fuzzy". Her cal is to be a witness to these times we are living in. She is an incredible teacher on the end-times. This women has been chased by the KGB smuggling in Bibles when it was the former Soviet Union. She also has powerful teaching on prayer and the blood of Jesus. She has a ministry in Branson, MO, Prayer Mountain in the Ozarks. These are beautiful cabins that are devoted for quiet times and prayer. I would love to go their for a few days with my husband. Additianally, she owns water-front property in Israel and has set up ministry there. She has been called to show Christian love to the Jews. She is so down-to-earth and so refreshing! I just love her and her ministry and I thank the Lord for her. Tomorrow, Sunday, she is teaching on the believer's authority. How I wish I could go but I have commitments at my home church. My husband and I will be teaching children's church.

This is a poem she passed out in a packet of information. I thought it might encourage you.

• Authority
• When mountain walls confront the way.
• Why sit and weep? Arise and say
• "be thou removed!" and they shall be
• by the power of God cast in the sea.
• All power on earth, all power in heaven,
• To Christ, the Son of God, is given;
• And from the throne He will endue,
• And hindrances will flee from you.
• O'er all the power of fiend and man
• Say through the Lord, "I surely can",
• Take from Him power on earth to tread
• On serpent's sting, on dragon's head.
• Whate'er thou art, O mountain high,
• Where'er thou art, in earth or sky,
• Whene'er thou art, truth is the same,
• "Be thou removed, in Jesus name."
• "Be thou removed!" Faith bids thee start
• I may, I can, I must, I will
• The purpose of my God fulfill.
