God at Work in Inwood, WV

What a great week it has been! We have seen God at work in so many life-changing ways it is hard to find a starting place. On Sunday scores of people acknowledged their need of a savior. Over 40 out of the 450 Adults in attendance, went out to the prayer room under the conviction of the Spirit, 27 of them were "hopefully converted."  We have seen wayward children restored, abuse forgiven, unfaithfulness confessed, and years of bitterness transformed into forgiveness.

Here are just a few of the many written testimonies from the first week in Inwood, WV:

 "God really showed me tonight that I have been imprisoned over all these years due to being verbally, physically, & sexually abused & that I need to forgive those who've hurt me. To release my spirit & let God really use me. Now I can really worship & serve God whole heartedly."

"Before tonight I believed that I had forgiven my mother for not believing that I had been sexually abused and for not showing me love & support, but I still wanted her to hurt like I did. I also realized that like the song, (Dungeon W/out Doors) I wondered where the God who saved me was. I don’t want to be in this prison anymore. It keeps me from being warm, intimate, & trusting. Now, I give thanks for my mom and her response to me as a kid. It let me to depend on God."

"I committed adultery against my husband, and I confessed to him a year ago. I also asked for forgiveness at that time but until tonight I never completely felt forgiven. I feel God working in my life and I have admitted that I can’t control my life-I NEED GOD."

"I found myself at a loss. I "knew" how to do everything right – except how to remove pride. But in the grace message He showed that becoming free from pride is not something you ask God for grace to do, but must be done in order to receive grace. I know that God can take me as his humble servant to be used by him."

"I fully realize that I can’t change my husband. I need to stand out of God’s way & do my battle on my knees. I need God’s grace to be a better mom & react the way I should when I’m "squeezed". I acknowledge I can't do it – it must be Christ in me."

Thank you so much for your prayers,
