Richton Revival Report.

We had another tremendous service under the tent last night. We had a man saved and that always is awesome. I love seeing people find the peace and help they need from God. There is nothing like salvation that comes only through Jesus Christ. We are expecting even more in the three nights remaining under the Gospel in Richton.

Jesus Christ is the only way out of the clutches of sin. He not only bore the penalty for sin but He is able to brake the power of sin in our lives. That is what we need desperately in 2014. This world is bound by the power of sin and have no way to be loosed themselves. But if we confess our sins God is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. Praise God.

I have not posted pictures from the tent set up in Richton so I will do that today. Although we had a late night on Friday I was up early and excited about tent revival in Richton on Saturday morning. Bro. Scott helped me lay out the pattern for the stakes and before long the men and women from First Assembly began arriving ready to work.

Here is the trailer in the parking lot where I dropped it Friday night. Bro. Scott hooked the church van to it and moved it into position in the grass  for me.





Before the tent went up...


And After.



This is the third tent revival in a row that the stakes went in the ground without too much trouble. I could definitely get used to that!





























Since I am usually very involved in putting up the poles I love it when Odie captures pictures of the tent going up. I never get tired of seeing rise up in the air. It is especially neat when we have two center poles as we do here in Richmond. By God's grace and help I plan to add another section and a third center pole by September  of next year as we gear up for City Reach.










Every tent needs an elephant to help with the set up. Some times you gotta put your weight into it!




This year we had two men up on top of the tent at the same time.










The great set up crew. Some of these folks have help set up the blue and white Gospel tent at least three times so they are really getting good.












I do not know what the difference is but this is one of the best looking tent set ups we have ever had.

Thanks for reading.

Leftover Pictures From Millry

         


















Revival is moving right along in Richton, Mississippi. We have had two great nights under the tent and excitement is building each night. We had young folks in the altar seeking a deeper relationship with God last night and God was helping.

This is our fourth year preaching tent revival for Pastor Scott Morris and the folks in Richton. We love coming here and it is one of our highlights each year. We have had great tent revivals every year but there seems to be something special about this one. It seems like God is about to do something wonderful. It feels like He is going to do something extra wonderful. I would not be surprised to have a whole family walk under the tent and get saved. What every it is I know it will be good.

We had quite a few friends from area churches here Monday night and that is always a treat. Most of the time I would not walk across the parking lot to hear me preach so it is very kind when friends come to be with us. Mr. Anonymous was even here last night. Maybe he will speak up in the comments and give you his perspective on service.

We have some pictures for you today that are left over from tent revival in Millry, Alabama. The first few pictures above are from the Friday we arrived in Millry and promptly got the tent trailer stuck. It was stuck pretty good but they winched it right out Saturday. I sure appreciate all of Bro. Hunter's work in trying to get the trailer in place and then moving it for me on Friday night after the tent was down. 

The rest of the pictures are from the last night of revival and then a few of the tent coming down. It was a great night.

I have a prayer request I would like to leave with you today. My nephew Victor is my brother Steve's son. Victor has been in the hospital since Saturday night and he is a very sick young man. They are not sure what is going on yet but they suspect something with his pancreas. Please pray for Victor.

Thanks for reading.
