It is COLLEGE FOOTBALL SEASON BABY!!!!!!!!!

Okay, so I am little excited. Georgia Bulldawgs are ranked #1. I pray we go undefeated and all the way. It will remain to be seen. Thank God the season has started. NC State and South Carolina are going at as I type.

I get excited about football. It is a great stress relief. So I am looking forward to this season. It could not get here quick enough

Until next time..........Keith

Boy am I tired!!!!!

This month has been one more busy month: Revival, Assembly, Back to School Bash and upcoming ball game this weekend. I thank God for his grace during this time. God is always faithful and I am thankful for his love and mercy and how he provides for these events.

Our Back to School Bash was this past weekend, ending last night with our anointing service for the kids this year. God ministered through a detective/captain in the law enforcement. God is so faithful to use us. Captain Rob Taylor shared how the internet is wonderful yet a dangerous place. He told of specific stories that I think are just heart wrenching, yet thought provoking of how predators are lurking for our children.

With that said, it leads me to this thought. The enemy is after us and he is lurking around to get us. Like a lion he is hiding in the bushes where we cannot see him always. There he waits for his opportunity to pounce on us. At times tearing us to shreads. With all of that going on I still believe God is still a protecting God and angels are encamped around us. There is no fear in God. Fear is cast out by perfect love. Though the enemy does attack God is greater. God is so great that our minds cannot even comprehend him as one of our concert players said yesterday (Zach Kelly). What a powerful thought, the enemy lurks, God stands in the light. God is never caught off guard by the enemy. God is always prepared and there is nothing you go through that God cannot handle.

May this resinate in your heart. The enemy is out there seeking whom he may devour, but God stands between us and the enemy through his son Jesus. For that, I give God all the glory

Until next time.... Keith

Home at last

The assembly ended and we were stuck for almost 26 hours in trying to get home. It was very long and drawn out. However, we made it home. The assembly ended and well it is over with. Parts of it were great. The best worship in a long time at an assembly. It was also a privelege to see friends from all over the world. That is one of the things I love about these gatherings, you can see your friends and these friends are really family.

We got home to minister to some of our kids, who lost their grandfather to death. The funeral was today and again it brought out friends. Last night at the memorial viewing there were many there and they were called friends.

I think about all of this. My friendships keep me in COGOP. Though I often disagree with a lot, it is my friendships that keep me in this denomation. I love them and they love me. Friends are friends forever as Micheal W. Smith would sing.

I am also reminded of a friend that is closer than a brother. Jesus! The one true friend who never leaves or forsakes. His friendship is priceless yet worth everything.

Until next time................Keith

Assembly 08'

This has been a great Assembly. The Lord has blessed tremendously in this assembly. Last night the worship was just overwhelming. I enjoyed Bro. Sherman Allen's sermon.

Looking forward to what God has for us today.

Until later Keith

Ramblings and Blogging the Assembly 08'

Well God has been moving in our local church at Rockingham. Though offical services have ended for the revival, the spirit of revival has not stopped. Sunday morning, we had more saved, sanctified, and filled with Holy Spirit. Sunday night same thing. The enemy is attacking, but God is greater an God will prevail do even more. Praise God for what he is doing.

We drove in for the International Assembly in Nashville TN. Thank God for his grace. We are enjoying our time. The worhsip was good last night and we have enjoyed our day of shopping today. Getting ready to go into service tonight now.

I will update as things transpire. I pray for a great service tonight and to see alot of friends as they come in.

Until next time.........Keith

Final Update on Revival and the Spirit of Revival

I have been wore out and busy so I am just now getting to my last update. We ended up with the following results that we can account for and I am sure many more heaven accounts for.

• 7 Saved
• 4 Sanctified
• 5 Holy Ghost baptized
• 1 healed
• 3 called to preach
• Many more renewings and people being revived.

God moved every service in a powerful way. It was so amazing. Wednesday night we did not get out of church until after 11. People were hungry for a move of God. I thank God for the opportuntity to be part of such a powerful revival. I praise God for every experience we had and the ones we don't even know about. We prayed for 15 experiences and we got them. God is faithful.

With all of that said, I don't believe the revival is over. The spirit of revival will continue. To much happen for it not too. It will only be maintained by prayer. It was birthed in prayer and it must be sustained in prayer. I look forward to Sunday services as I know God will move.

Until next time.......Keith

Update on Revival

God is moving so mightly in our church here in Rockingham NC. We have seen 7 souls saved 3 Sanctified, 1 filled with the Holy Spirit one healed and a host of deliverances. God is so amazing. The devil has fought us every step of the way. Yet God keeps proving himself strong. I am looking forward tonight to see what God does.

Just wanted to give a quick update on what God is doing.

Until next time.....Keith

Revival at Rockingham

Our youth revival started yesterday. Worship was good as we entered into the presence of God. Yesterday morning, I preached on being "Spiritually Possessed." God moved in a mighty way as people began to come to the altar before I was even done.

Last night, we preached on "How Long?" It was very tough, it seemed we were battling demons every where. I know God ministered as it seemed the service would not end. I felt drained afterwards and just simply came home. Was very tired.

I know God has plans for this revival and want to see God move in a mighty way. So for those of you who read this blog, please pray for a move of God. We must have it. This generation must have it. If ever more there is a generation that needs to know the power of God it is this one.

Until the next time..........Keith

A week of prayer..........

Boy what a week. God has been so faithful as always. This week, several of us have gather at the church to pray from 12-1pm. This prayer time is in reponse to our revival that starts on Sunday morning. We have prayed and then we prayed some more. Matter of fact, we have not only prayed during this hour, but several of us would gather again around 9pm and pray until after ten. God has been with us every step of the way.

We have prayed over youth, our church, community, city, county, state and nation. This little band of prayer warriors have gather this week to anoint and cry out for a mighty revival. God has heard our cry. How do we know this? The devil is upset and he is working trying to distract people from knowing God during this revival.

Our greatest privelege has been to call on God to answer us to move in this revival. There have been times that the intensity of the prayers have been beyond our level of understanding. Yet God has been there. What a great honor it is to pray.

I thank God for this opportunity to seek his face.

I will be blogging the revival starting Sunday. Pray with us for a mighty move of God

Until next time....Keith
