YOU BELIEVED IN WE. You believed in help. You believed God. FAITH was easy to locate. Hope was not hard to find. Love was something you desired and gave . . . unselfishly . .. and you had peace of mind.

You took chances to explore the mighty.

You were not afraid to knock on the door. You walked the aisles of adventure, looked for the unknown, and expected the miraculous. You waited to hear a new song.

Sins were easy to forgive and your life went on and on. Nothing on earth could stop you because your thoughts to God belonged.

Every day was an adventure: you threw all you had into the pot. There was nothing remotely known to you as something you COULD NOT.

Don’t settle for a lesser day or a way to go without. YOU STAND IN A SPECIAL PLACE RIGHT NOW WITH POWER TO TURN THINGS INSIDE OUT.

Rule it. Cool it. Turn it UPSIDE DOWN, AND SET THE WORLD ON ITS EDGE. You’ve been stressing but haven’t been catching.  Someone can bring all of us together. Elephants have a purpose! God made them BIG and STRONG, but they don’t kill to eat.

And David arose, and went down to the wilderness of Paran. 2 And there was a man in Maon, whose possessions were in Carmel; and the man was very great, and he had three thousand sheep, and a thousand goats: and he was shearing his sheep in Carmel.
3 Now the name of the man was Nabal; and the name of his wife ABIGAIL: and she was A WOMAN OF GOOD UNDERSTANDING, and of a beautiful countenance: but the man was churlish and evil in his doings; and he was of the house of Caleb.
4 And David heard in the wilderness that Nabal did shear his sheep. 5 And David sent out ten young men, and David said unto the young men, Get you up to Carmel, and go to Nabal, and greet him in my name: 6 And thus shall ye say to him that liveth in prosperity, Peace be both to thee, and peace be to thine house, and peace be unto all that thou hast. 7 And now I have heard that thou hast shearers: now thy shepherds which were with us, we hurt them not, neither was there ought missing unto them, all the while they were in Carmel. 8 Ask thy young men, and they will shew thee. Wherefore let the young men find favour in thine eyes: for we come in a good day: give, I pray thee, whatsoever cometh to thine hand unto thy servants, and to thy son David.
9 And when David’s young men came, they spake to Nabal according to all those words in the name of David, and ceased.
10 And Nabal answered David’s servants, and said, Who is David? and who is the son of Jesse? there be many servants now a days that break away every man from his master.
11 Shall I then take my bread, and my water, and my flesh that I have killed for my shearers, and give it unto men, whom I know not whence they be?
12 So David’s young men turned their way, and went again, and came and told him all those sayings.
DAVID’S ACTION TO “NO”! NABAL SAID, “WHO IS DAVID? WHO IS HIS JESSE, HIS FATHER? I WILL NOT TAKE MY BREAD, WATER AND FOOD THAT I HAVE SET ASIDE FOR MY SHEARERS AND GIVE IT TO A MAN I DO NOT KNOW!!
13 And DAVID SAID UNTO HIS MEN, Gird ye on every man his sword. And they girded on every man his sword; and DAVID ALSO GIRDED ON HIS SWORD: and there went up after David about four hundred men; and two hundred abode by the stuff.
DAVID TOLD 400 MEN TO GET OUT THEIR SWORDS, AND HIS PUT ON HIS SWORD.
MEANWHILE, A WITNESS TELLS NABAL’S WIFE ABOUT HIS EXPERIENCE, AND THE WOMAN OF GOOD UNDERSTANDING TAKES ACTION.
14 But one of the young men told Abigail, Nabal’s wife, saying, Behold, David sent messengers out of the wilderness to salute our master; and he railed on them. 15 But the men were very good unto us, and we were not hurt, neither missed we any thing, as long as we were conversant with them, when we were in the fields: 16 They were a wall unto us both by night and day, all the while we were with them keeping the sheep. 17 Now therefore know and consider what thou wilt do; for evil is determined against our master, and against all his household: for he is such a son of Belial, that a man cannot speak to him.
18 THEN ABIGAIL MADE HASTE, and took two hundred loaves, and two bottles of wine, and five sheep ready dressed, and five measures of parched corn, and an hundred clusters of raisins, and two hundred cakes of figs, and laid them on asses. 19 And she said unto her servants, GO ON BEFORE ME; BEHOLD I COME AFTER YOU. But she told not her husband Nabal.
20 And it was so, as she rode on the ass, that she came down by the covert of the hill, and, behold, David and his men came down against her; and she met them.
21 Now David had said, SURELY IN VAIN I HAVE KEPT ALL THAT THIS FELLOW HATH in the wilderness, so that nothing was missed of all that pertained unto him: and he hath requited me evil for good. 22 So and more also do God unto the enemies of David, if I leave of all that pertain to him BY THE MORNING LIGHT any that pisseth against the wall.
DAVID SAID HE WOULD KILL EVERYONE OF NABAL’S MEN.
AND A WOMAN RIDES INTO THE CAMP.
23 And when Abigail saw David, she hasted, and lighted off the ass, and fell before David on her face, and bowed herself to the ground, 24 And fell at his feet, and said, UPON ME, my lord, UPON ME LET THIS INIQUITY BE: and let thine handmaid, I pray thee, speak in thine audience, and hear the words of thine handmaid.
SHE TOLD DAVID TO PUT THE SIN ON HER. LET HER BEAR IT.
25 Let not my lord, I pray thee, regard this man of Belial, even Nabal: for as his name is, so is he; Nabal is his name, and folly is with him: but I thine handmaid saw not the young men of my lord, whom thou didst send.
ABIGAIL SAYS THE LORD SEND HER JUST IN TIME TO WITHHOLD DAVID FROM SHEDDING BLOOD.   . . .  AND SHE BROUGHT A BLESSING.
26 Now therefore, my lord, as the LORD liveth, and as thy soul liveth, seeing the LORD hath withholden thee from coming to shed blood, and from avenging thyself with thine own hand, now let thine enemies, and they that seek evil to my lord, be as Nabal. 27 And now THIS BLESSING which thine handmaid hath brought unto my lord, let it even be given unto the young men that follow my lord.
28 I PRAY THEE, FORGIVE THE TRESPASS OF THINE HANDMAIDEN: for the LORD will certainly make my lord a sure house; because my lord fighteth the battles of the LORD, and evil hath not been found in thee all thy days. 29 Yet a man is risen to pursue thee, and to seek thy soul: but the soul of my lord shall be bound in the bundle of life with the LORD thy God; and the souls of thine enemies, them shall he sling out, as out of the middle of a sling.
30 And it shall come to pass, when the LORD shall have done to my lord according to all the good that he hath spoken concerning thee, and shall have appointed thee ruler over Israel; 31 That this shall be no grief unto thee, nor offence of heart unto my lord, either that thou hast shed blood causeless, or that my lord hath avenged himself: but when the Lord shall have dealt well with my lord, then remember thine handmaid.
GRATITUDE TO THE WOMAN WHO HAD POWER WITHIN HERSELF. SHE BROUGHT LIGHT TO THE ENTIRE EPISODE WHICH WOULD HAVE ENDED IN MURDER.
32 And David said to Abigail, Blessed be the LORD GOD OF ISRAEL WHICH SENT THEE THIS DAY TO MEET ME: 33 And BLESSED BE THY ADVICE, and BLESSED BE THOU, WHICH HAST KEPT ME THIS DAY FROM COMING TO SHED BLOOD, AND FROM AVENGING MYSELF WITH MINE OWN HAND.
34 For in very deed, as the LORD God of Israel liveth, WHICH HATH KEPT ME BACK FROM HURTING THEE, except thou hadst hasted and come to meet me, surely there had not been left unto Nabal by the morning light any that pisseth against the wall.
35 So David received of her hand that which she had brought him, and said unto her, GO UP IN PEACE TO THINE HOUSE; SEE, I HAVE HEARKENED TO THY VOICE, AND HAVE ACCEPTED THY PERSON.
ABIGAIL.  A WOMAN OF LIGHT.

YES, I AM! John 9:4 I MUST WORK the WORKS OF HIM THAT SENT ME, while it is day: the night cometh, when no man can work. 5 As long as I am in the world, I am the light of the world.
Today, October 23rd is my Wedding Anniversary. I congratulate those who share the same date. I woke up with the song playing in my mind. We sang a song back in 1970 by Myrna Summers,
God gave me a song
That the angels cannot sing:
“I’ve been washed in the blood of the crucified One.
I’ve been redeemed!”
HOW ARE YOU USING THE THOUGHTS GOD GAVE YOU? You only have so long . . . before you must say “So long!” YOU NEED TO LEAVE SOME “DEEPER TRACKS”. That’s Christ in me — THE HOPE OF GLORY. When the night comes, NO MAN CAN WORK. My friend, THIS HOUR, THIS DAY, THIS NOW is time to
REEVALUATE
RECALCULATE
REFINE
RENEW
REVIEW
A look at my recent pictures tells you WE HAVE MATURED. I’m better. Speaking the WORD that GOD PUT IN MY MOUTH.
THE LONGER YOU DON’T DO SOMETHING, THE MORE YOU CONVINCE OTHERS THAT YOU CANNOT DO IT. Also, you can CONVINCE YOURSELF that you just cannot do it.
Many people WILL NOT give you credit for GETTING BETTER, they will think that you delay is: YOU ARE INCOMPETENT. YOU DO NOT KNOW WHAT YOU ARE DOING. That’s one reason for having a consistent, methodical rhythm to accomplishing your purpose for which you were sent. God’s word IN YOU is tuned to that frequency.
I did something (am doingsomething) so simple: telling friends I prayed for and want to advance, “Everyone bring 8 quarters – solid quarters. Collect the same from eight others and bring the personally (or have a friend to deliver it personally). Do before two (2 P.M.)
MEANING: Solid quarters (not pennies, nickels, dimes or dollars). (1) BE EXACT.
Do before TWO. (2) BE ON TIME AT THE APPOINTED TIME.
Bringing them PERSONALLY: (3) TOUCH & AGREE. WE FORCE A CONTACT, and SEE THE POSSIBILITY FOR COMMUNICATING. (Mal 3:16 Then they that feared the Lord spake often one to another: and the Lord hearkened, and heard it, and a book of remembrance was written before him for them that feared the Lord, and that thought upon his name. 17 And they shall be mine, saith the Lord of hosts, in that day when I make up my jewels; and I will spare them, as a man spareth his own son that serveth him. 18 Then shall ye return, and discern between the righteous and the wicked, between him that serveth God and him that serveth him not.)
(4) WE SHARE THE BLESSING COLLECTING the SAME from others/friends meant believing, sowing and propagating the word. Isa 55:10 For as the rain cometh down, and the snow from heaven, and returneth not thither, but watereth the earth, and maketh it bring forth and bud, that it may give seed to the sower, and bread to the eater: 11 So shall my word be that goeth forth out of my mouth: it shall not return unto me void, but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper in the thing whereto I sent it.
I am “yielding up” to the Holy Ghost as I know how to do. He’s going to work marvels and wonders.
EVERY SINGLE DAY, make a conscientious effort to move forward. Around the world, in various cultures, there are similar stories that teach the same basic lessons for advancement and life. God is GOOD. He rains upon the wicked and the good. Matt 5:44 . . . for He maketh His sun to rise on the evil and on the good, and sendeth rain on the just and on the unjust. (Read the whole passage Matt 5:44 But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you. 45 That ye may be the children of your Father which is in heaven: for he maketh his sun to rise on t he evil and on the good, and sendeth rain on the just and on the unjust.46 For if ye love them which love you, what reward have ye? do not even the publicans the same? 47 And if ye salute your brethren only, what do ye more than others? do not even the publicans so? 48 Be ye therefore perfect, even as your Father which is in heaven is perfect.

How do you see what you have? HOLD UP YOUR PART OF THE BRIDGE. Some people see themselves POWERLESS over forces they control. Are you one of those people?

A woman, older than I, shared her thoughts as to who might help me to accomplish my goals. She called the name of a distinguished woman and said, “Oh, she likes to run things, and could get it done; but you will need to let her do it all — the way she does it. I was open to her suggestion and terms. Some of us want the benefits of others and their gifts UNDER OUR OWN TERMS. But they CANNOT accept your terms because that’s NOT THEIR IDEAL WORKING ENVIRONMENT. HOLD UP YOUR PART OF THE BRIDGE. YOU CAN DO IT? THEN DO IT!

My mother died 40 years ago. I was 31. My dad passed 30 years ago. I was 41. My actions TODAY are not the same. I need help from those who have been helped so that we may heal the world; and, I reached out to help them. Don’t hesitate. TODAY IS THE DAY OF SALVATION. HOLD UP YOUR PART OF THE BRIDGE.

If you believe that God answers prayer, THEN, find at least one other believer, and GET THE PRAYER ROLLING UP TO HEAVEN.

God knows the way to your blessing!

Since 1965, God has used me to get people introduced to and filled with the Holy Spirit, and to see and manifest His works. I must always leave room and provide opportunity for people to be filled with the Holy Ghost, the Promise of Jesus Christ. That’s the TRUE EXPERIENCE IN JESUS, THE MESSIAH. I am sent to help people get filled with the Holy Ghost and with Power.

Earlier this week: a WESTCOAST SCHOOL ALUMNUS, BRYAN JIMENEZ, shared this quote with me from Dr. Joe Dispenza: “We think sixty thousand thoughts a day and of those 60,000 thoughts 90% are the same thoughts from the day before. So, in order to get new results in our lives, we have to do new things, to have new experiences and have new thoughts.” I put it this way, years ago: NEW WORDS, NEW CONCEPTS, NEW HORIZONS!

Thoughts came to me this morning, Isaiah 58:1 Cry aloud, spare not, lift up thy voice like a trumpet, and shew my people their transgression, and the house of Jacob their sins. 2 Yet they seek me daily, and delight to know my ways, as a nation that did righteousness, and forsook not the ordinance of their God: they ask of me the ordinances of justice; they take delight in approaching to God.

CRY ALOUD AND SPARE NOT> It’s about the urgency and importance of connecting with God. GOD IS LIFE. Sin is a disconnection from God. Hence, the wages of sin is death. GOD WAS SHOWING THEM TO KEEP THE PURPOSE OF THE THINGS THEY DO: Isa 58:6, 6 Is not this the fast that I have chosen? to loose the bands of wickedness, to undo the heavy burdens, and to let the oppressed go free, and that ye break every yoke?

Luke 17:12 And as he entered into a certain village, there met him ten men that were lepers, which stood afar off: 13 And they lifted up their voices, and said, Jesus, Master, have mercy on us. 14 And when he saw them, he said unto them, Go shew yourselves unto the priests. And it came to pass, that, as they went, they were cleansed. 15 And one of them, when he saw that he was healed, turned back, and with a loud voice glorified God, 16 And fell down on his face at his feet, giving him thanks: and he was a Samaritan.

17 And Jesus answering said, Were there not ten cleansed? but where are the nine? 18 There are not found that returned to give glory to God, save this stranger. 19 And he said unto him, Arise, go thy way: thy faith hath made thee whole.

20 And when he was demanded of the Pharisees, when the kingdom of God should come, he answered them and said, The kingdom of God cometh not with observation: 21 Neither shall they say, Lo here! or, lo there! for, behold, the kingdom of God is within you.

TEN MEN who had the same disease, LEPROSY, called to Jesus from afar, “JESUS, HAVE MERCY ON US.” WHEN HE SAW THEM, HE COULD SEE THEIR DISEASED FLESH. He said, “GO SHOW YOURSELF TO THE PRIEST.” AND IT CAME TO PASS, THAT, AS THEY WENT, THEY WERE CLEANSED.

My friend, come! Show yourself to the priest!

One of them, A SAMARITAN, came back. It’s not strange that people with the same type diseases may be forced to “be together”. He is the ONLY ONE THAT RETURNED TO GIVE GLORY TO GOD.

Since 1974, (45 years) Westcoast and I went to the prisons. I made many personal visits, at our expense. We wrote letters and comforted families. When many of them are released, I never (or seldom) see them, or get a visit, or receive an offering to help us to bring peace to others. JESUS ASKED, “Were there not 10? Where are the nine?” No excuse works.

Get that, my friend! Understand that! For your benefit, I cry aloud and “spare not” to LOOSE THE BANDS OF WICKEDNESS, UNDO THE HEAVY BURDENS, TO LET THE OPPRESSED GO FREE, AND THAT WE BREAK EVERY YOKE.

BE BLESSED! HARKEN DILIGENTLY TO THESE WORDS.

Friday, April 26, 2019 was the kickoff for my 50 Anniversary, Jubilee APPRECIATION SERVICE. Pastor DeWayne Harvey and Greater Blessings Tabernacle of Praise, Tallahassee, opened the celebration.

]]> AVAILABLE?  https://hlpea.org/unavailable/ https://hlpea.org/unavailable/#comments_reply Thu, 10 May 2018 23:58:29 +0000 http://hlpea.org/?p=410 Have you ever called someone and their answering machine said this:
“Hello, I am UNAVAILABLE at this time. Please leave a message and I will get back to you as soon as possible”?

You decided if you would leave a message, hang up, or call back.

UNAVAILABLE means you are doing something else. You decided not to answer after seeing the number. Your attention is on something else at the moment. You are away from the phone. You don’t feel up to it. OR,  YOU MAY BE ON ANOTHER LINE WITH SOMEONE ELSE.

You place a call to a company, and the answering machine picks up: “Thank you for calling. Currently, all of our representatives are helping other customers. Please hold for the first AVAILABLE agent.”  Most of us stay on the line so that we will not lose our place. That can be time-consuming.

When we speak of God, we want to be seen as FAT Christians: FAITHFUL, AVAILABLE, TEACHABLE; but in practice, many of us are FAITHFUL and TEACHABLE, but NOT AVAILABLE AT THIS TIME. We have something else scheduled. There are some issues that need to be resolved before we can “come”, “give”, “go” or “stay”. Or, we say to our Prophet Samuel, “Say on. I can’t spend the night.”

We want to have time to “look into the matter”, although you go shopping and pop out a credit card on some items you do not need, AND did not plan for. We gorge ourselves with some foods we do not need to eat. BUT, THAT’S YOUR BUSINESS.

WHAT IF GOD WAS CONVENIENTLY UNAVAILABLE?

Looking at some TV programs and news, we can easily see they are CREATING things to GET OUR ATTENTION, and TO SELL A PRODUCT. And, while they are feeding your mind, you are UNAVAILABLE for things that TRULY AFFECT YOU. There are some things that should matter to you because they blessed you.

The banks and financial institutions sell money. Realtors sell houses and lands. Restaurants sell food. The movie industry sells entertainment. And we, the church, give away HOPE, HEALING, HEALTH, and HERITAGE*. Jesus said, “And as you go, preach, saying, ‘The Kingdom of Heaven is at hand.’ Heal the sick, cleanse the lepers, raise the dead, cast out devils: freely you have received, freely give.” (Matthew 10:7-8)

I am AVAILABLE. What do you want me to pray for? What do you wish for me to agree with you on when we go before our Father in Heaven? I AM AVAILABLE. Let me know. Let me know!

SEE THE FUTURE through what God gave you and by the positive influences HE put in your life: people, places and things. Who are your people? places? things? BE AVAILABLE TO SEE THE LIGHT!

Shakespeare wrote: TO THINE OWNSELF BE TRUE!

Tell yourself the truth. Are you AVAILABLE? STOP and PRAY and THINK!
The scriptures are given to help us get the best results out of life. Isaiah and other prophets have expressed that GOD IS DOING A NEW THING – A GREAT WORK – BUT MEN AND WOMEN WILL NOT BELIEVE, ALTHOUGH IT WAS TOLD TO THEM. We are not AVAILABLE – AND, the power came down. There is nothing that’s impossible, nothing that’s incredible with Jesus. But, a few other things have our attention at the moment.

It’s time to do NOW
what seemed IMPOSSIBLE!

Your days are filled, you’re not available.
Your days are filled, you cannot fund-raise.
Your days are filled, you have not time to honor your father and mother.
Your days are filled, you are NOT AVAILABLE to help those who lifted you.
Your days are filled, you will not make new friends.
Your days are filled, you will not look into a matter for a prisoner or a widow.
Your days are filled, you won’t teach a child a song you learned.

YOU FORGOT HOW YOU GOT WHERE YOU ARE!
YOU FORGOT HOW TO GET
WHERE YOU COULD BE!

DO THE MATH!
At your PRESENT RATE of progress,
You Will reach your destination
IN ABOUT 50 years.
GIVE TODAY – starting with YOUR TIME.

Ancient Israel (the Bible people, led by the Great Prophet Moses), were NOT AVAILABLE TO FOLLOW GOD’S INSTRUCTIONS as GOD WAS LEADING them to the land He promised their father: ABRAHAM. Father Abraham passed the promise to his son, Isaac. And, Issac passed it to his son, JACOB (Israel). JACOB’S CHILDREN were NOT AVAILABLE to obey and to follow the vision that was set before them.

ARE YOU AVAILABLE?  Take time to write a check to help me to do this work of God. Take time to swipe a credit card. ARE YOU AVAILABLE? I need you now. LIVE IN THE MOMENT.

I AM DOING A GREAT WORK, I CANNOT COME DOWN: why should the work cease, while I leave it and come down to you? (Nehemiah 6:3)

DO NOT give anyone the impression or the ease of mind to think that God did not call YOU or that you are no longer of value to the ministry. Take at least two hours each day and each night to show forth God’s mighty works. CHANGE YOUR SCHEDULE AND ACTIONS, if necessary.

Bishop Henry L. Porter https://hlpea.org/letter-to-you/ https://hlpea.org/letter-to-you/#comments_reply Sun, 17 Dec 2017 20:48:31 +0000 http://hlpea.org/?p=242 I hope that you are alright and advancing to your benefit. My prayers are for you. Please continue to pray for me. Every day, I am discovering the benefits of agreement in prayer. WE can see far more happen in the area of healing, miracles, signs and wonders, if we will CHOOSE TO BELIEVE, and to work with each other. Each morning, when I wake up, I praise God and I thank Him for keeping me.  I ask God to forgive me from all my sins, known and unknown to me.  Lev 4:1 And the Lord spake unto Moses, saying, 2 Speak unto the children of Israel, saying, If a soul shall sin through ignorance against any of the commandments of the Lord concerning things which ought not to be done, and shall do against any of them: 3 If the priest that is anointed do sin according to the sin of the people; then let him bring for his sin, which he hath sinned, a young bullock without blemish unto the Lord for a sin offering.
I know it is right for me to write you — to communicate and to connect with you. Reading and receiving is left to you. God knows that I will not hold back to showing you the things that God in His gracious mercy has shown to me. Why throw away the things that made you successful?  Over the years, God has blessed thousands upon thousands through my letters, newsletter, radio, television, magazines and personal crusades. I will NEVER give up and ACT LIKE (pretend) God is not real. This is the last month of 2017. I am compelled by the Spirit of God to make known and to put you in remembrance of these things. Remember James 4:13-17:  Come now, you who say, “Today or tomorrow we will go to such and such a city, spend a year there, buy and sell, and make a profit”; 14 whereas you do not know what will happen tomorrow. For what is your life? It is even a vapor that appears for a little time and then vanishes away. 15 Instead you ought to say, “If the Lord wills, we shall live and do this or that.” 16 But now you boast in your arrogance. All such boasting is evil.  17 Therefore, to him who knows to do good and does not do it, to him it is sin.
You are standing at a point of healing and miracles! I had this vision on Dec. 24th. Water in the shape of a tongue entered my mouth. It was not in a container, but held it’s shape. Upon swallowing the water, HEALING went to every part of my body. I felt renewed, refreshed, healed, delivered. I believe this for YOU. God answers prayer. Let nothing separate you from your prayer partners. Keep in touch. Invest. Speak of God’s goodness. Sing the songs. Spread the Joy.
April 9, 2016, Arman was born to Mohinder Singh (79 years), and  Daljinder (72 years), an Indian couple that has been married for 47 years but never had children. “We cannot thank God and our doctor enough for blessing us with a baby boy. We plan to give him the best of everything when he grows up.”  Mom said, “Money does not matter to me. I wanted a child at any cost, and today I am a mother. She delivered her baby naturally and breast feeds him. Persistence pays off.
I don’t know what you are working on, until it manifests. BUT, WE CAN CHANGE BOTH THE INPUT AND THE OUTCOMES. How? By FIRST saying, “Go to, let us”. Agree! Pray! ACT! Be sensitive. Be careful. Some people and things are broken because we broke them. They didn’t break themselves. Hard to believe? IT’S NOT HARD to isolate people, or to do some act that alienates you from another. YOU DON’T HAVE TO HAVE AN EVIL INTENT or MALICE!!! You can sin through “ignorance”. Your adversary, the devil, has many wiles that he will use against you. He will try “to slip something in” that you never considered. It can be as simple as (1) counting the people to see who’s with you, or (2) eating a fruit that looks good on a tree God told you not to eat from or (3)  making you feel that it won’t hurt  to take an extra day to cross Jordan River” because you had concerns about the safety of your children and grandchildren.
The devil will (4) catch you when you are “good and hungry”, then, suggest that you “turn rocks into bread” FOR YOURSELF.  Satan will put up SIGNS so you can “assume” it is OK to “go to such and such a city, spend a year there, buy and sell, and make a profit”. In ALL YOUR WAYS ACKNOWLEDGE HIM, and God will direct your paths.
Ps 37:23-27 The steps of a good man are ordered by the Lord: and he delighteth in his way. 24 Though he fall, he shall not be utterly cast down: for the Lord upholdeth him with his hand. 25 I have been young, and now am old; yet have I not seen the righteous forsaken, nor his seed begging bread. 26 He is ever merciful, and lendeth; and his seed is blessed. 27 Depart from evil, and do good; and dwell for evermore.
God demonstrated the lasting power of His word, to MOSES, was still there with JESUS, the WORD made flesh. Our Lord Jesus quoted Moses. Even when the people told Jesus that Moses allowed them to divorce, Jesus said, Matt 19:8 He saith unto them, Moses because of the hardness of your hearts suffered you to put away your wives: but from the beginning it was not so. ALWAYS KEEP the RECORD STRAIGHT. (If you think it doesn’t apply to you, share the truth with others.) Some of the results you are experiecing came from THE HARDNESS OF YOUR HEART, not someone else. Some people came to you and tried to tell you in the beginning; but, being headstrong and resistant, you would not consider the wisdom they expressed out of concern. It is still the truth, Mark 6:4-5 But Jesus said unto them, A prophet is not without honour, but in his own country, and among his own kin, and in his own house. (RESULT) 5 And He could there do no mighty work, save that he laid his hands upon a few sick folk, and healed them. Matt 13:57-58 And they were offended in him. But Jesus said unto them, A prophet is not without honour, save in his own country, and in his own house. 58 And he did not many mighty works there because of their unbelief.
Some STEPPED AWAY, and never found time to STEP BACK into success.
I love you. When I returned home from my first semester in college, my mother reminded me that I owed by first visit to my grandmother, granddaddy and aunts, BEFORE I went to hook up with friends my age. It was understood at Booker High School (then, the only school for Blacks in Sarasota), that alumni return to greet the students and encourage them to complete their high school education and to go to college. Without fail, you always return and attend church the Sunday after you return to the city! This was our support system. Always keep the support system in tact. Dad was central to my intelligence. Mostly in silence, his eyes guided me.
When God sent me to do a work, a number of people helped me. I had open ears. Listen to me and hear me out. I wish I had time and space to talk about Uncle Virgil, Dr. Anderson, Jerry Strickland, Dr. Idella Moss, Lona B. Mathis, Bishop Dr. George Dallas McKinney, Rev. Johnny B. Reese, and how they helped me. But, I will write a little about Mr. Charles “Tick” Wilson.
The reason I chose Mr. Wilson is because our televison department at Westcoast showed a remarkable video of him on Christmas Eve. A great Christmas present to me! The documentary showed that we recognized Mr. Charles “Tick” Wilson, “Pop Wilson”, for 50 years of dedicated service in radio broadcasting. The situation that brought up my “AWARENESS” to recognize Mr. Wilson was not pleasant to me. My Tsadok and Zacchur were small kids and I took them to the Sarasota County Fair. At the fair, I lost my money. Then, when I saw “Pop Wilson and His wife”, he called me over to the side and said, “Henry, can I talk with you for a moment?” Sure! He asked me in a very low, slow voice, “HENRY, WHY DO YOU HATE ME SO?” That kicked the wind out of me. Startled, I said, “Mr. Wilson, I don’t hate you.” He asked, “How many albums do you have out?” I answered about 5 or so.” He responded, “I don’t have one. You never came and gave me one.” I felt horrible. I could not make any excuses that one of my employees should have taken care of that. Mr. Wilson was my mother’s friend, my daddy’s friend, and my friend. My neglect was awful.
He continued, “When you started your group, I put you on radio every time you came down to the station. I promoted your concerts.” My God, I felt bad! How could I —the “thoughtful” Henry Porter — be so negligent, forgetful and insensitive to a man upon whose lap I sat and slept? I could not answer him that I WAS BUSY, or that I WAS TRAVELING or that I WAS RAISING MY CHILDREN. My mother and Dad were both gone. I was on television. I had a thriving radio broadcast, and very successful meetings throughout the United States and around the world. I had sinned. I forgot from whence I had come. The aged Mr. Wilson pulled my coattail at the county fair when, by incidence, I ran into him. I believe IT WAS GOD’S DOING.
Immediately, after I returned home from the county fair, I brought over everything I had. I planned a major program to celebrate him. I purchased a trophy that was at least 3-feet tall, and I blessed him. Everybody that I had the power to contact, I contacted them. I pulled out all the STOPS. I summoned the television department, cameramen and directors, choirs and officers, elders and everything I had power to call, and we CELEBRATED MR. CHARLES “PoP”, “Tick” Wilson.  In that special service, WE came together to do the songs he liked, the things he treasured. And, when HE WAS ALRIGHT, I WAS ALRIGHT — not until then.
Christmas Eve 2017, I learned something. Yes, I know I heard it the night that we celebrated Mr. Wilson; but, now he and his wife are gone. His words told me more. On the video, he said that he had just been in the hospital the night before, suffering complications from diabetes and that he shouldn’t have on shoes at that time. But, Joyce Bellamy called him and said, “You don’t want to miss this. Come on out!” He put on his shoes and came because HENRY LOVED HIM SO!
God knows what He is doing. Don’t exclude yourself from GIVING because you feel you have done enough, or you met your commitment, or that you’re saving to give at another time. This is the hour of salvation. AND ALL STORIES THAT HAVE BEEN TOLD, ARE NOT WITHIN THE STORIES YOU KNOW. Just consider that there are many things you do not know. God established Jubilee. Follow through and give your $1,000 to the Henry L. Porter Evangelistic Association. I am so happy that MR. WILSON pulled me over to the side AT THE SARASOTA COUNTY FAIR. I will never forget that day, when GOD PULLED ME OVER TO THINK AND REASON WITH ME so that I may CONSIDER MY WAYS.
You may be feeling the best about yourself; but, you may be missing the best for yourself. The review tape of Cassietta George and Mr. Wilson quickened my memory. God blessed me! Oh, the things that we let “slip” because we have a great skill in making excuses and doing THE LEAST WE CAN DO. I had the power to MAKE MR. WILSON HAPPY without any “gain” for myself!
WE HAVE THIS TREASURE IN OUR EARTHEN VESSELS. Thank you, Westcoast Television Department for following through on the leading of the Holy Ghost. Thank You, my son, Henry Porter, for being led of the Spirt to “PULL THE TAPES”, as God commanded us for our own welfare and blessing. BY FOLLOWING ALL THE WORDS GOD SPOKE TO US, WE MAKE OUR WAY PROSPEROUS and HAVE GOOD SUCCESS.
This is my last written correspondence of the year. I would like to have an immediate response from you in giving to help this ministry. I want to close out all bills and things due to others. You can help me to do that. I need you to STOP AND DO SOMETHING NOW. Drop everything that you’re doing, and GIVE YOUR LOVE SOME TIME!
We cannot continue to take an not give. We cannot be so caught up in our own world that we feel “offended” when corrected, or when asked to do something WE DIDN’T THINK OF or SET INTO ACTION OURSELVES. YOU CAN HELP. You know what was important to your making. Don’t be ignorant to the thing that could cause your breaking!
All of us should have learned from Jesus and His conversation with His disciples. They had not had time for leisure. Jesus told them to come into a desert place. When they went there, a crowd GATHERED. Jesus is moved by compassion and ministers to the people. The worn-out disciples tell Him that it’s getting late. SEND THE PEOPLE AWAY so they can grab a bite to eat. Jesus tells HIS DISCIPLES to feed the people. After feeding 5,000 men with 2 fish and 5 loaves, Jesus commands His disciples to go to the other side of the lake. Then, Jesus walks on water to them. Peter also walks the water to come to Jesus. When they are on the boat and wondering, we find THEY DID NOT CONSIDER THE MIRACLE OF THE LOAVES. That was only a few hours after the miracle happened. What about us who have years of miracles stacked in forgetfulness?
You cannot wait until you understand all aspects or feel entirely comfortable with taking a leap of faith. Use the knowledge you have to help others and you will reap the greater benefits. Step out on faith today. TAKE A CHANCE. LAUNCH OUT INTO THE DEEP. MAKE SOMETHING HAPPEN. Put your faith on the line! BREAK OUT OF WHERE YOU ARE!
I’ve not stopped turning things around and working miracles in Jesus name. Some people doubted and sank. Some stopped believing and we could not work great miracles there. But to those who BELIEVE, the works of God are overtaking them.
Do you believe? Will you do one great work before this year ends? Like TODAY?? We have four days left in 2017 to complete the old business and fly into the new year. What is your gift by faith to the HLPEA – $1500, $100, $2000, $500 $5000, $10,000? Make your check payable to the HLPEA, INC. Experience the glory of God in giving. Be a catalyst. When King David gave, he stirred up the nobles, and they raised everything they needed to build the temple.

Don’t let your thoughts go unchecked. Lean not to your own understanding. Monday morning text messages flowed in from West Africa and South Africa.

I heard, “Reduce the expenditures.” “Endeavor to keep the unity. Don’t forsake your father’s friends or your friends. Pray: ‘Send Help.’ Help will arise.” Take some of your Christmas money and bless yourself with a mission trip to learn more about Africa. We are also planning for the choirs in Asia, Malaysia. Whatever path God brought you to your present place on the journey, DO NOT FORGET ALL THE WAY HE BROUGHT YOU — BROUGHT US.

God’s instructions were sealed in my spirit: “Aim at success and fulfill your calling. This is a calling, a joy, not a job. Stay true to what God called you to do. (If that is not clear to you in your mind, review the HISTORY, the tapes, videos and CDs, prophecies and documents. Some details can get muddled and muffled in the multitude of activities, voices and interpretations.) Put it off no longer. Prioritize it. COUNT your RESULTS; don’t just imagine you are being effective. COUNT your RESULTS. TODAY IS A BLESSING.

Thank you for your attendance, support and love during the High Holy Celebration – “Journey for Jesus” and “Considering the Miracles Love Campaign”. Beware of the wiles of the devil. He was blatant enough to tempt God’s son, our Lord Jesus Christ.

I received an exhortation from one of the Pastors in Ghana: *MEN OF HONOUR* by Dag Heward-Mills. READ: Genesis 27:1-29. The eye that mocketh at his father, and despiseth to obey his mother, the ravens of the valley shall pick it out… (Proverbs 30:17).

When Ham exposed the nakedness of his drunken father, he forgot that if his father hadn’t built the ark, he would have drowned with the rest of the world. What he did not know was that God had recorded his father’s single act of faith and imputed it to him as righteousness. Ham was disgracing someone that God had honoured.

Unfortunately, natural men have mistaken physical weakness for spiritual weakness. They presume that old age, sickness and problems reduce a person’s spiritual authority. That is one of the highest kinds of deceptions.

Isaac was an old, blind man who could no longer tell the difference between his two sons, Jacob and Esau. Jacob deceived Isaac and received the pronouncement of a blessing from his father. Do not be misled by the blindness and weakness of your father. If a blind father can speak a blessing for it to happen, then we must fear the words of fathers.

You often hear people speaking against their fathers. They describe them as irresponsible men who didn’t look after them. Unfortunately, some young people take up the hurts of their mothers and champion the fight against their fathers. This is a terrible mistake for which they pay a high price. Some pay the price of barrenness; some pay the price of death. Yes, he may be blind, irresponsible, and deceived, but he is still a father.

May we never be part of the team that dishonours the fathers that God has honoured!

Start your day with a blessing!! Good morning????

An apostle in South Africa, wrote:
THE UNSHAKABLE NATURE OF THE KINGDOM IS WITHIN YOU –
It’s in the formation of your Character and your conviction.
It’s in your resoluteness to stay focused.
It’s in your settled determination that you will not swerve off the path.
It’s in your determination that you will not negotiate with the darkness.
It’s in your determination that your gazes have become single.

I will share the last one, since this morning, Dec 4, 2017 from another minister from Ghana, West Africa.
*SAD, BUT TRUE*

1. Realize this:
No matter what you say and how you say it, SOME people will never get it.
That’s not your fault!
*Sad, But True!*

2. No matter how pure your motives are, SOMEBODY will still accuse you of ill intentions.
Stay pure anyway.
*Sad, But True!*

3. No matter how humble you are, somebody will still consider you proud. Stay humble, anyway.
*Sad, But True!*

4. No matter how generous you are, somebody will still call you “selfish”. Remain generous, anyway.
*Sad, But True!*

5. Sometimes some of your greatest pains will come from those you gave the most pleasure.
*Sad, But True!*

6. Some of your greatest disappointments will come from those you gave your best appointments or commitments.
*Sad, But True!*

7. Sometimes some of the worst things you’d hear about yourself may come from those you speak the best of.
*Sad, But True!*

8. Not everyone in your ship is paddling in the direction of your dreamed destination.
Discernment is key.
*Sad, But True!*

9. Loving people sometimes means feeling used by them.
*Sad, But True!*

10. Sometimes, doing the right thing ends up making you look like a fool.
*Sad, But True!*

11. Tough as it seems, any evil done against you can become a seed for your promotion… It depends on your response.
*Sad, But True!*

12. I would rather appear foolish now and see the wisdom of the Almighty God unfold, than appear wise now and turn out a fool later.
*Sad, But True!*

13. Promotion doesn’t come by fighting for your rights, but by being faithful in doing what is right.
*Sad, But True!*

14. Those who will enjoy true promotion by the Almighty must be willing to forgive freely, forgive quickly and forgive wholly.
*Sad, But True!*

15. Those who will relish true promotion must be willing to serve many for free and selflessly.
*Sad, But True!*

16. Read with caution: Sometimes, to see the positive things Almighty God can do for you, then you have to be willing to stop what you can do in offending Him.
*Sad, But True!*

17. Without God’s sign off, your biggest step can turn out to be your biggest mistake.
*Sad, But True!*

18. Pain has a higher potential to toughen you up than pleasure does.
*Sad, But True!*

19. Problems are easier to solve than people.
*Sad, But True!*

20. Many people will celebrate you only as long as your advancement doesn’t exceed their expectations of you.
*Sad, But True!*

21. Some people get close enough to you just to find something bad about you to broadcast to the world.
*Sad, But True!*

22. Some people are quiet when you’re succeeding but quick to point out your failures.
*Sad, But True!*

23. Hating those who hate you makes them your leaders, since you’re following their footsteps.
*Sad, But True!*

24. Rather than react to a negative situation, respond to your revelation.
*Sad, But True!*

25. Believe the best, even when you’re going through the worst.
*Sad, But True!*

26. They hurt you? Don’t hold it against them. Hold them up in prayer.
*Sad, But True!*

27. Forgiving people is not just a good idea. It’s a GOD’s idea. Actually, more than an idea, it’s an instruction.
*Sad, But True!*

28. How you respond to a situation can be more important than the situation.
*Sad, But True!**

29. Your ability to overlook an offence determines the degree of dominion you’d exercise over many other things.
*Sad, But True!**

30. Wisdom will help you solve problems. A large heart will help you accommodate people. You need both.
*Sad, But True!*

31. When all is said and done, let the fear and the love of the Almighty GOD in your heart pour through your daily walk!
*Sad, But True!*

32. The wise is he who takes lessons from the above, and with them benefit others!
*Sad, But True!*

33. Some people may think this piece is targeted at them. No. Everyone alive will need one of the points at some point or the other.
*Sad, But True!*

*Just be Happy!*
*Sad, But True!*

*Top of the day*

Take a minute or two to respond. Take an hour or two to volunteer. LOVE forever.
