Tonight’s Meeting (12/23/2015) – The Standard

John,

Tonight was so wonderful! When Gary stood up and told about how much he enjoyed your email on the standards of Pastor John’s House, and then you started preaching on holding up the standard of holiness, it just felt so good and so clean to my soul!

I remember when I was out in the world, living in sin, I used to think I didn’t want government, and that I wanted to rebel against authority.  Then when Jesus touched me, and I received the holy Ghost, he showed me that I had actually been rebelling against who I really was.  In truth, I LOVED government, and I loved authority – most especially the authority and government of God.  What other kind of God would you want, but the One who has one true way of holiness?

Thank you for tonight, John, and for holding up that standard.

Pastor John,

I loved the message tonight.  It felt like an answered prayer!  I love the peace and joy that Jesus gives and I want to hold on to it no matter the circumstances that surround me.  I love when I feel that stirring in my soul!  I feel so blessed and so encouraged.  

I’m very thankful for you and the other saints that have stayed on the path and held on to the truth!  I feel rich to have all of you, lights and guides to help me to stay on the path that leads home!

Pastor John,

Tonight was so good!  It was perfect.  When you prayed for me tonight, my heart was crying out to Jesus for deep, deep roots.  I pray God removes every ounce of this world out of my heart.  It is so wonderful to hear you tell about crying out to Jesus.  To hear brother Earl, brother Billy, and sister Willie stirred my soul.  Oh the blessed food Jesus gives us!  I am so thankful you cried out to Jesus.  I feel so encouraged and hungry for more of Jesus. 

( ps..and VERY VERY HAPPY)

Amen! I love how simple God has made it for us all, as you said tonight. Love God with our whole heart! Stay full of the Holy Ghost. Pursue the things of God. And I love the emails tonight from ones encouraged, and then those encourage us all even more! 

Thank you!

Dear John,

Words get in the way when I try to write down my feelings about last night. The best way I can describe my feelings is to say I love it when God packs his mercy, his faith, his standard, his blessings deeper down in my heart as he did last night. He is always making us more like his son.  I love that verse you quoted last night: 1Peter5:10  “But the God of all grace,  who hath called us unto his eternal glory by Christ Jesus, after that ye have suffered a while, make you perfect, establish, strengthen, settle you.”
