HOW GREAT IS OUR GOD !

WOW! Its been awhile since I wrote anything on this blog. Lots of things going on during this new fall season...festivals in Buffalo across from the mill pond.....tractor shows at the stadium....the Union County Fair next week,
countywide church revivals and youth revivals...lots and lots of things going on. And the weather got really nice last week here in Union, however this weekend it began to heat up again and today they say we may break record heat levels. But fall is here, and I heard its going to cool off towards the end of the week and I am glad. The Sr. Citizens of Buffalo Baptist Church went to Lake Lure, NC for a picnic last week (10-5-10) and we had a great time. Buffalo Baptist is thriving under the new leadership of Rev. Michael Wingertsahn. Sunday school attendance has gone up and I am just waiting to see how God is going to move next in our community! There are so many right outside our doors at Buffalo Baptist Church that don't know the Lord or need to be "revived" ! The church was built back in the Early 1900's by the Mill Company that came to town and everything revolved around the mill and church etc. People moved here from the mountains to take jobs in the new mills and it became a time of growth for Union County.

Now that the mills have closed...(1995-Buffalo)...and been torn down, its sad to look at the two towers still standing at the Buffalo Mill...the only reminder of those many years people spent there working and making a good living for their families. Memories...thats all we have...or maybe not...maybe thats a "good" thing.
Time for some NEW MEMORIES the "GOD KIND" !

...I still believe that God wants to "Show Himself Strong" on behalf of the people of Union County, Buffalo included, and recently I posted on facebook a scripture from Ephesians...chapter 5 verse 14....WE NEED TO BE AWAKENED...TO RISE UP...AND DO THE WORKS OF THE LORD! Again today, I was in Ephesians 5 verses 15-17. I used that as my status for facebook today and felt it was really speaking of NOW!

As I read through my e-mail today I came across a few things I shared on my facebook page and also wanted to share on this blog.

Did you know that on October 31, 1517 Martin Luther tacked his 95 theses to the Wittenburg Door in Germany....Igniting Reformation in that nation, region, and around the world! Let us as a nation "cry out" on October 31, 2010 for an Awakening and Reformation in our own day and hour and country, cities, towns of America. There will be a "live web cast" on Oct.31 from Christ for the Nations in Texas from 7-10pm CDT hosted by Cindy Jacobs Prayer Ministry. The website is http://www.generals.org/. Take a look at it if you get a chance...!!!

I was viewing another video today that had been sent to me and it was a discussion about dreams with Jim Goll. He has a book out called DREAM LANGUAGE and I found his comments very interesting in light of the fact the Bible tells us that in the last days "young men will dream dreams etc."....Something he said really went along with what I have already written about Ephesians....He was making reference to God giving us a "wake-up call" in this hour...sending out an SOS to people...."WHOSOEVER CALLS UPON THE NAME OF THE LORD SHALL BE SAVED! SOS! SOS! SOS! SOS! "SAVE OUR SOULS" So Many Need Jesus !!!

And I believe HE IS REAL ! OH>>>SO REAL! Just as I began to type these words the song came on "How Great Is Our God"...Name above all names! Last night at church we had a young man visiting and playing that song and singing it....it was wonderful! YES..................................HOW GREAT IS OUR GOD........!
