The surveys taken on Sunday mornings reveal that approximately 84% of the adults attending morning worship services have been fully vaccinated for COVID-19. That my brothers and sisters is really good and to God be the glory. Now, after having said that, there is still 16% of those in attendance that have not received their COVID-19 injection. It is to that 16% that we appeal. For your health and wellbeing and for that of your family and friends, please get vaccinated! Whatever reservations you might have about being vaccinated, please consider that this has become a pandemic of the unvaccinated.
We have available the where-withal to bring this pandemic under control, however, the unvaccinated person must overcome whatever impediment that prevents a needle in the arm. How apropos are the words of Hosea 4:6a: “My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge:”. For one to attain knowledge there must be an acquisition of information. Listen to the health reports and ask the Holy Spirit to guide you into all truth. He has been tasked to guide us unto all truth (John 16:13).
According to the state health department, as of Tuesday, August 24th, the percentage of eligible people who are fully vaccinated stands at 55.7 percent for the state of Texas. Dear People, we can beat this pandemic. Get your injection.

The following is a reprint of a previous “From the Pastor’s Desk” article. We believe you will find it helpful.
“All we have to fear is fear itself” (Franklin Delano Roosevelt, 32nd President of the U.S.A). How right President Roosevelt was then, and how true that statement is today. For many, and that includes some believers, the fear of the coronavirus has literally petrified them and they are incapable of acting in a reasonable or expected manner. Fear has traumatized them.
How many times in scripture does the Lord Jesus tell His followers to “fear not”? Answer: Enough for us to get the message. “For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind (wisdom)” (2 Timothy 1:7). Paul mentions here 3 characteristics of the believer that will help us overcome our fear of the coronavirus or any other malady: Power, love, and a sound mind (wisdom). These are available to the believer because the Holy Spirit resides in us. Fear, my brothers and sisters, is a negative faith. Fear says the worst is going to happen, while faith says God has everything under control. Faith says: “For He will save you from the trap of the fowler, and from the deadly pestilence. He will cover you and completely protect you with His pinions and under His wings you will find refuge; His faithfulness is a shield and a wall “(Psalm 91:3-4 AMP). Know this, fear questions God’s word and the God of the word. “So faith comes from hearing [what is told], and what is heard comes by the [preaching of the] message concerning Christ (Romans 10:17 AMP).
Dear Ones, all we have to fear is fear itself.

As of this day (day two of the Revival) we are experiencing an awesome move of God. The two nights of Pre-revival prayer really set the spiritual atmosphere for the revival. Thank God for the moving of the Holy Spirit. Day one of the revival began with a Psalm 100 movement: “Make a joyful noise unto the Lord, all ye lands. Serve the Lord with gladness: come before His presence with singing. Know ye that the Lord He is God: it is He that hath made us, and not we ourselves; we are His people, and the sheep of His pasture.” Then, the crowning moment came with the preaching of the Gospel of Jesus Christ. The Evangelist took us in the word to the very throne room of God with the message: “We have a Great Salvation”.
We, corporately, the Body of Christ, presently possess this great salvation, that originated with God the Father, that was consummated by God the Son, and is perpetuated by God the Holy Spirit. We know of a certainty that we are in a right relationship with our Heavenly Father. Our names are written in the Lamb’s Book of Life. The supreme manifestation of God’s grace, the focal point in the history of salvation, is the cross of Jesus Christ.
Salvation is a free gift of God granted to lost and underserving men who trust in the righteousness of Christ and humble themselves in submission to His will. We join with the poet, William P. Mackay, and proclaim:
“We praise Thee, of God! for the Son of thy love,
for Jesus who died, and is now gone above.
Hallelujah! Thine the glory, hallelujah! Amen!
Hallelujah! Thine the glory, revive us again.“
