Covenant of Friendship

The Master’s Ministry recently celebrated its Church and Pastor’s Anniversary with Apostle Mamie Wilson of Resurrection of Life as our special guest minister. At the end of service, the Lord led Apostle Mamie Wilson to give Bishop Altheresa one of her shoes and they entered into a Covenant Friendship.

“What a glorious time we had with Resurrection of Life!”

Testimonies:

Lancaster High School Quarterbacks and members of The Master's Ministry had the opportunity to put the Word of God and prayer to work on their behalf.

Jerell White, (Lancaster High School JV Football Quarterback, keyboard player and lead dancer on the Mime Team at The Master's Ministry), pulled an ACL and was  expected to have a long recovery time, but being taught the word of faith and prayer, he had his leaders lay hands on him and pray for healing. He confessed that he believed his leg would heal quickly and he is now out of his brace.

Shaquille Williams, Lancaster High's Varsity Football Quarterback and drummer at The Master's Ministry was tackled in a game last week and was told that he probably had cracked ribs, but after prayer and declaring the word of faith over his body, he had NO cracked ribs, he was just a little sore. Praise God for His healing and protection and these young Athletes and their families applying the word of God to their situations and seeing it work!

"We are Pulling Down Strongholds, Building Kingdom People and Crossing into the Next Dimension of Kingdom Work"

The word of the Lord to The Master's "Next Dimension" Ministry.

Then the word of the Lord came unto me, saying;

Before I formed thee in the belly I knew thee; and before thou came forth out of the womb I sanctified thee, and I ordained thee a Prophet unto the Nations.

Then said I, Ah, Lord God, behold, I can not speak: For I am a child.

But the Lord said unto me, Say not, I am a child: for thou shalt go to all that I shall send thee, and whatsoever I command thee thou shalt speak.

Be not afraid of their faces: for I am with thee to deliver thee, saith the Lord.

Then the Lord put forth His hand, and touched my mouth. And the Lord said unto me, Behold, I have put my words in thy mouth.

See I have this day set thee over the Nations and over the Kingdoms, to root out, and to pull down, and to destroy, and to throw down, to build and to plant.

Jeremiah 1:4-10

The Supernatural

*REAL Testimony: Bishop Altheresa's Brother: Gunshot wound to the head - Declared DEAD, but the Supernatural Power of God brought him back to life!

It's not spooky, not crazy, but it is real and available for God's People to operate in.
 As we add the final touches to the September Newsletter, I personally think back over these 28 years of serving God and seeing Him manifest His Supernatural Power over and over again on behalf of ourselves, our family and friends; as well as, to use us to pray or lay hands on others.

I'm so thankful to Abba, Father God for every time He has manifested His presence on our behalf. There is no God like our Father, God. I don't have enough time here to share all of the things that we have seen God do or even the things He has used us to do, but during our teaching time this month, We will try to share some of these testimonies with you. 

It is our desire to help stir your desire to go deeper in the things of God, to stir your faith to go after what God says is available to you and to teach you how to operate in the things of God, so that you will experience the Supernatural Power of God in your own life; as well as be used by God to help others.

We will share this most recent personal testimony with you. On Friday, July 22, 2011, my younger brother was shot in the head and declared to be dead. When the family arrived and through a course of events, surgery was performed on him to try to save his life. After surgery, the diagnosis was still no hope, no brain activity; only the respirator was technically keeping him with us.

Prayers all over began to go out for him through family and friends from SC State University and through Facebook. I didn't get the message until the next morning, July 23, but I wasn't able to get to him right away. I consulted the Lord as to what to do and I was given the leading to follow through with my commitment and assignment. (We were conducting Leadership Training for the Next Level Leaders of our church and the Blood of the Lamb Church with Pastor Carolyn Spellman, all that day on Saturday July 23.)

But because of knowing the word of God, who the word says I am in God and how the Spiritual Realm of the Supernatural operates, though I couldn't get there in the natural, physical, right then, I went by way of the spirit, through the Power of the Word of God in prayer.(I'll teach you what I mean. It's all biblical.)

I began to command death to obey my authority in and through the name of Yeshua Jesus and get back, leave my brother alone. I declared the word of God that, “he shall live and not die and declare the works of the Lord." And then, I called life to return back into him, In Jesus name. When I finished praying, I gave God thanks and praise for the miracle. I said, "little brother, I will see you in a few hours," and then I went on in to my training class. 

That evening, I was able to go to the hospital. I met our sister and we went into his ICU room to pray. We laid hands on his lifeless, cold body and I began to pray in the Spirit. Then, what I heard by the Spirit, I began to call out and call forth. A few minutes later, our little brother started moving a finger on his left hand and trying to open his eyes for the first time. That was the first sign of life, Hallelujah!

On the next day, Sunday when Bishop Ed and I went back to see him, he had more hand motion. He was kicking his left leg and trying to wake up. But for some reason, during that first week, every sign we saw, the doctors tried to dismiss and down play. They still said that there was not enough brain activity to really acknowledge that he would make it, or that he was even really alive. They said that it was just reflexes, BUT GOD. My sister and I began to stay at night with him and pray. By that Wednesday night, I stayed all night in the room with him and prayed over him. I prayed for the brain to be quickened and the activity to show up on the monitors and tests.

The next day, the swelling on his brain had gone down, the doctors were able to see there was real brain activity and then they began to be hopeful and more positive. By the first of the next week, he was out of the coma, off the respirator and breathing on his own.

You all are the first to hear this, but on today, Tuesday August 30, my little brother is being released out of the hospital to go home. HALLELUJAH! GLORY to GOD! The Supernatural Power of God is real and available to all. The more you know about it, the more you can see it manifest.

Join us on Sunday Mornings and Wednesday Nights this month of September, and receive greater understanding of "The Supernatural." You can learn more of How to operate in it to see more breakthroughs and miracles take place in your life and those connected to you.

The Anointing makes the Difference

During the month of August read the book of 1 Samuel chapters 1-31. Look for the application of the anointing. See how it is released, received and the effects of it on a person’s life. Isaiah 10:27b says, “the yoke shall be destroyed because of the anointing."

Did you know that an anointing is available to you? This month of August, we will explore the word of God and uncover knowledge and revelation about the anointing, and why and how you can receive it.

In Luke 4:18, Jesus said, "The Spirit of the Lord is upon me and He has anointed me....

We Proclaim Jubilee!

What is significant about that? In the year of Jubilee, the things that had been taken, stolen, sold or lost could be restored to the person. The things that were being held captive would be set free and Debts would be released. This was a spiritual law that God established with the children of Israel and it was fulfilled and proclaimed by Jesus.

Luke 4:18 & 19 records Jesus proclaiming to everyone in the synagogue as He reads Isaiah 61:1& 2, that, "The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, for He has anointed me to preach the gospel to the poor. He has sent me to heal the broken hearted; to preach deliverance to the captive; recovery of sight to the blind; to set at liberty them that are bruised and to preach the acceptable year of the Lord."

Mature, Mobilize, Multiply

In the realm of the Spirit, like it is evident in the natural realm, there are particular, certain, specific and

even special times and seasons. The more you are knowledgeable of a time and season, the more you can prepare for it. In the scriptures, 1 Chronicles 12:32a says, "And the children of Issachar, which were men that had understanding of the times, to know what Israel ought to do."

God desires to give understanding of these times to His children, because God wants His children of this age to be as Daniel, Joseph and many other prophets of old, who God used to give direction, instruction and provision for His people and the world, because God wants to touch and reach the world, not just the church. As John 3:16, for God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son...

A Fresh Flow if the Anointing

With the excitement of a fresh flow of the anointing that we have been experiencing in our services, I was reminded by the Holy Spirit to make sure we have clear understanding, and instruction, for a key part of a word that we received from 2 Chronicles 20.

Today is the tomorrow of yesterday. And we are to go out tomorrow (now today) and face the battle, the enemy, opposition, and challenges of life with these directives. 

 We are to face our battles knowing these things: 

* Don't allow the threats of the enemy or life cause us to fear, worry, doubt, complain or give up. 

* Seek God (add fasting if needed). 

* Remember God is with us.

* We are God's people (His children) continue...

* Don't lean to our own understanding, but look to God for the answers.

* Believe the word of the Lord and believe His servants (that means something may come your way that will try to get you to doubt or question) but keeping believing God.

* We are to stand in praise and God will fight on our behalf.
