PrayerLine Service Summary
Today, we will not be summarizing Minister Miller’s message and ask that you please listen to our Podcast for details. We apologize for any inconvenience this may have, however, it is in the interest to reserving time for this necessary statement of thanks.
Divine Cultivation Ministry would like to take this moment to thank all of our members who sown a seed to the ministry during our service. It is a blessing to provide an enriching experience each week to those who truly understand the goodness of our God.
As most of you already know, we do not ask for any financial support. However, for God to recognize the importance of providing a platform for his people to worship, it is through that recognition that God established DCM and we are gracious to provide you all each week with the means to fellowship and worship our Lord and savior.
Nonetheless, I'm am now compelled to ask, is there something else on the horizon that only our Lord knows and we do not, concerning the next journey that may impact the church's? Will the world return to a post coronavirus format, if not, and due to the United States now reporting--just over a couple of days, more than 1.2 million new cases of the coronavirus. Whereas, it took more than 4 months to reach 3 million cases. Such as this, predicates the virus is not under control and we must not overlook how this may effect the worlds ability to worship?
Since DCM’s inception we have strived to bring a enriching and anointed service each week, and because of God's wisdom we were able to establish this ministry well before COVID-19 emerged, giving any faithful soul an opportunity to receive a word; prophesy; and a safe place to worship, irrespective of a world-wide disconnect between the faithful and the brick and mortar buildings that is far apart of sanctity. All christians should understand that you and I make up the church, not the buildings, and it is because of this, (a pandemic) that God spirit lives within you and I, and not a building, amen.
DCM is proud to provide a place for you all to worship, and respect the fact that you are extending your appreciation to help this ministry grow. Likewise, Evangelist Miller and myself have discussed this recent outpouring of support and believe we have figured out a way in which to ensure that your monetary gifts, benefits you and the body of this ministry, and after working out and finalizing the details, I will be discussing this with each of you.
Luke wrote in Acts 14:27 “And when they were come, and had gathered the church together, they rehearsed all that God had done with them, and how he had opened the door of faith unto the Gentiles." KJV
God's word promised ‘a great door and effectual’ being opened to Paul for the free ministry of the world; and to the angel of the church in Philadelphia, when the door is open, none shall shut—attesting to the fact as God set before thee a open door, which none can shut. Spiritually, it refers to the Gentiles being granted entrance into the Kingdom, that is the hereditary rites of the Jews. This changed the rights to salvation by granting entry by faith to the Kingdom of salvation, what a blessing and no one, (except you or I, by our own actions) can shut that door, amen.
Therewith and as Minister Miller taught on during this service, we have nothing to fear when we trust and turn to God. Despite the coronavirus disrupting life; church; and history, God says that “none shall shut” that door.
With this, it now has become lucidly clear to me, God's purpose for our forward progress, I finally understand his direction to me and why God has placed me on the path that he put before me. That through God the formulation of Divine Cultivation Ministry was founded, and through it, it gave us a place to worship while others were facing uncertainty and a disconnection that disrupted and challenged their faith. Our strength lives in this ministry, and to you, this may mean something different than it does for me, but you need to figure out how it influences your faith, amen.
I now know how it influences mines! As many may conclude, the coronavirus was not put here for a single reason. We often hear that it is to draw us closer to God and this may be true for some, however, the reason may be starkly different for others. For some it may be to build a closer relationship with Christ, however, for others, it may be something totally different, a more or less actionable path, or a path that involves a different gift.
We each have a path and the time is now for you and I to understand and to follow it, amen. Pray and ask what is your, even if you have been on one in the past, it may have been altered or misperceived and you may need to reach out again, and ask God for guidance.
I have been praying that if anyone lost their way along the way during this pandemic, that they find their way back to God and that if any flee in the near days that they do not lose their salvation as a result of this disruption.
So, should things become progressively worst, supporting our ministry ensures we will always have an open door for the hearing of God's word, and a safe place worship, pray and fellowship. Thank you Lord for your wisdom, hallelujah!
