I obtained an revival ipod. I take it to work. I work in a 42-room hotel in Galveston. We have clock-radios with ipod docking stations. I play it all night. One security guard watched ‘The Realms of God-Special Edition’. He was convicted and I prayed with him. God touched him, delivered him, set him free, and restored him. He rededicated his life, and asked God to use him in the ministry. He said that he had a peace on him that he had not had in years. He said that God took away all that pain and anger that he had in his heart. One of my guests stated that his lawyer sent him down here to rest because he was working too hard. He said that his blood pressure was too high. He said that he checked it this morning and that it was normal. He said that he believed that he would stay another day. To God be the glory! Another security guard asked how could she know the voice of God. She watched that recording and developed a hunger and a thirst for God. I thank God for these recordings. As God allows I want to help you take the gospel around the world. God has freed me in my faith. I believe I am going to go into full time ministry this year. I will be taking my first missionary trip to Mexico as part of a ministry team this year. I thank God for sending you to America as a missionary. I have truly been helped by this ministry.

for years we have been praying for our son frank along with the river family. he has tried to take or should i say satan has tried repeatedly to kill him over and over through what was termed suicide . in less than an hour frank will be walking through our doors into what i believe to be the beginning of his complete and total restoration,vindication,deliverance and road back to his heavenly FATHER. after his latest attempt in minnesota where he has refused to leave because of his beloved children the LORD BEGAN TO MOVE ON MY HUSBAND LIKE NEVER BEFORE. he said ‘ENOUGH IS ENOUGH” !!!!! ” I’M GOING TO GET OUR SON” that was almost 4weeks ago and many phone conferences with medical personnel,social workers, ex-wife, ex-girl friend etc. etc. i never thought it would end. but from the beginning frank jr. had said “i think it’s time, i want to come home to you and dad” i choose to believe this also meant he is returning to GOD, FATHER,SON &HOLY SPIRIT. PLEASE PRAY WITH US FOR GOD’S PERFECT WILL AND GOD’S TOTAL HEALING IN THE LIFE OF A MAN THAT I BELIEVE WAS CALLED BY HIM AS A VERY YOUG CHILD.

I met about thirty people today. Two people actually stood out. A woman was watching T.V., and I asked her if I could interrupt her T.V. time to pray and read a scripture with her. She said she was very gald I came. As I read the script,I prayed and she accepted the acceptance prayer. She told me she has three children and they don’t visit her, but she always pray for them and I answer her that God never leave her. The second lady cried and said she prayed to God every day and she belives God is keeping her. She invited me to come again. She could see the transformation in lady. She has always wanted to do this and this is her first time.

Rom. 1:16 “For I am not ashamed of the gospel…..” On 12-04-07 Carisaaisa’s team went to Walmart and the same power that was prevalent on yesterday, 12-03-07, downtown and at the high school was at Walmart. This man was about to pull his car out and leave , BUT the power of God stoped him in his tracks. He turned the engine off. He sat there in his car like a baby, and received the Lord Jesus Christ as his saviour. Hallrjuah! God is doing great things in South Florida.

I started attending The River in January after attending the Winter Camp Meeting. God has entrusted me with a ministry, Christ for Kinshasa Ministries, that focuses upon revival in the Democratic Republic of the Congo. I was a Business Development Project Manager for a local College but knew I was to be a full time servant for the Lord. God spoke to me a few months before the camp meeting that I was to “step out of the boat” and go full time in the ministry. The church I was attending said that I was making a big mistake by quitting my job without first speaking with them. I obeyed God the week before the camp meeting. I was fully convinced that God would make the way for His ministry in Kinshasa to come to pass. On March 4th I made a covenant with God that I would be obediant to any command given to me.

That week invitations to hold crusades in Kinshasa suddenly appeared, in addition to that invitations for Crusades in Nigeria and Nepal suddenly came in sequential days. My ministries website vistors increased from 12 visitors a month to 153 as of March 13th. Praise God for His faithfulness to our Covenants as Pastor Brown had preached on. I knew the sermon was speaking to me, especially when Pastor Howard-Brown said, “This is for someone here who is to make a covenant with God”. Tears stream down my face even now in awe of God’s expidited fulfillment of ones duty to bring Him glory. Thank you Pastor Howard-Brown for allowing God to confirm through you my rebellion, which led to my repentence and obediance that now goes forth to win countless souls for His Kingdom. God Bless the Bride of Christ, Rev. Curtis C

Jean received one she has a broken rod in her back and is recovering from severe shingles head scalp with dizziness. Jim her husband received the last he just had lung removed from lung cancer. The 19 he goes to get further tests. Thank you. Wednesday my brother Stewart who is an elder at his church asked me to pray for Steve and his Wife Tammy she tried to kill herself and is bi polar. Tammy will not let anyone come in and pray for her. I shared with him how you prayed over handkerchiefs and they were received by the 3. He had t-shirt with the business logo on them and agreed to have them prayed over for them and taken to Tammy and Steve,I read Acts 19:11-12 …and the diseases departed from them , and the evil spirits went out of them.

I gave him Radio Sermon 10 of John G. Lake where it lists several incidents of healing from cloths. I also shared of Jon Colyer (from England) praying over pajama’s and mailing to a little boy and he was completely healed he wore the pj’s. Thank you for praying over these.

Honor come forth in Rodneys life and ministry.Order come forth in Rodney’s life and ministry in Jesus name amen. I will share of the glory as it unfolds thank you. Be Blessed, Becky

Rodney Howard Browne teaches us the importance of character.

Character is a subject that is not discussed in

many circles today. Problems arise when ministries are

growing too fast. In other words, the anointing upon the

person’s life has developed faster than the character of the

individual. Ten or twenty years down the line, it blows up

and the ministry comes to nothing because they didn’t

allow their character to develop.

Rodney Howard Browne tells us that they didn’t walk in the fruit of the Spirit. They

didn’t walk in love. They didn’t walk in the joy of the

Lord. They didn’t work on their marriage. They didn’t

make sure they had a solid foundation at home. They

didn’t take care of their children. Their children end up

backsliding away from God. They end up in a divorce

and things just don’t have a solid foundation.

Counting the Cost

“No one builds a tower unless he counts the cost.”

Do you realize the cost of being involved in the ministry?

It’s glamorous to look like you are going into the

ministry, but have you realized the cost? What price will

you have to pay to walk in that place?

When I started in the ministry, I was, as they say

in the military, gung-ho. I was ready for anything. If God

wanted me to run an arctic expedition and preach to the

Eskimos I would have done it. I was ready to go at the

drop of a hat, without ever finding out what it entailed.

Sometimes it is good to be that way, because if you knew

what was coming up, you wouldn’t go in the first place.

I am reminded when the Gulf War was on and the

young men were going to the Persian Gulf. Different age

groups were going. There were the eighteen-year-olds,

just out of school, who had watched several Rambo

movies. Then there were the guys who were twenty years

older, who had been through the Vietnam War. They

were going out of a different sense of duty.

Rodney Howard Browne explains that the young

man didn’t know what he was getting

himself into. The first time he dives in a fox hole and

those mortars are flying over his head, he suddenly

realizes he is in the middle of war. The older man knew

what the commitment was because he had already faced

the heat of the battle.

Coming Ready or Not

When you first enlist in God’s army, you may not

know what it entails. Sometimes you say, “Lord, I’m

ready for this.” That is the way I was. I would pray,

“Lord, I’m ready for that. Lord, I’m ready to go here.

Lord, I’m ready to do this.”

The Lord said, “Rodney, sit down and shut up.” I

would get upset and complain, and the Lord said, “You

are not ready.”

Then you go through several years of saying, “I’m

not ready, Lord, I’m not ready, I’m not ready.” The Lord

comes to you and says, “Now, Rodney, go and do that.”

“O God, I’m not ready!”

He says, “Yes, you are.”

You see, four or five years ago, you were ready in

your own ability, but now you know you can’t do it in

your own ability. So you are ready in His ability. When

we are not ready in our ability, when we feel the weakest,

that is the time when the Spirit of God can rest the

strongest upon us.

When I Am Weak Then I Am Strong

Like the Apostle Paul said, “When I am weak,

then I am strong” (Second Corinthians 12:10). He was

able to say this in the middle of trials and tribulations.

Paul had a thorn in the flesh, which was not sickness and

disease, but was persecution. Everywhere he went in his

life and ministry, he was either shipwrecked, beaten, left

for dead, spent time in jail, spent a night and a day in the

deep – he always had troubles and persecutions.

Paul prayed, “Lord, remove this thing from me.”

Some people think he got rid of it. No, he didn’t. The

Lord said to him, “No, I’m not going to remove it from

you. My grace is sufficient for you. My anointing is

sufficient for you. My ability is sufficient for you to bear

this persecution.”

So Paul said, “Most gladly therefore will I rather

glory in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest

upon me” (Second Corinthians 12:9). He didn’t say

anything about sickness. He said, “I will rejoice in my

infirmities and my weaknesses that the power of Christ

may rest upon me.” Remember that the Lord sent Ananias

to Saul to tell him the things he would suffer for the name

of Jesus.
