NEWS FLASH…

12/12/2013

Site reboot. When I first started this site, it was done in html, I later did it in Joomla. However, I had not upgraded it in I am not sure how long, so when it was time I decided to re-do it in WordPress.

It’s funny because when this site was first born, I was working closely with Prentice on it and had him help me with designing the colors. I still have that first html site on a hard-drive.

For a long time, I have been busy doing other things and not really wanting to do much here. However, I realized that this is a project I began for and with Prentice, and I will continue.

Recently, Pat Sue contacted me with some writings he wanted to share on the LAP site; and that was the motivator that finally gave me that “push” to get this started.

As of today. This is “a work in progress”. Depending on how often you visit, you will see it take shape.

Thank you.


ABOUT THIS SITE…


It’s been a long time coming. Perhaps a promise, long overdue. Some memories need to be shared; like a ripple in a pond, so they can continue to touch those around us.

A life well lived is worth sharing.

Trust God

It is written in the book of Daniel: Your Majesty, you are the head of gold. After your kingdom has come to an end, another great kingdom, inferior to yours, will rise to take your place. After that kingdom has fallen, yet a third great kingdom will rise to rule the world. Following that kingdom, there will be a fourth great kingdom as strong as iron. That kingdom will smash and crush all previous empires. During the reigns of those kings, the God of heaven will set up a kingdom that will never be destroyed. No one will ever conquer it! It will shatter all these kingdoms into nothingness, but it will stand forever!

 

It is written in Psalms chapter 18: for this, O Lord, I will praise you among the nations; I will sing praises to your name. It is written in Psalms chapter 103: Praise the Lord; I tell myself, with my whole heart, I will praise his Holy name. Praise the Lord; I tell myself, and never forget the good things he does for me! It is written in Psalms chapter 7; I will sing praise to the name of the Lord Most High. It is written in Psalms chapter 9: I will sing praises to your name, O Most High. It is written in Psalms chapter 145: I will praise you my God, and king, and bless your name forever and ever.

Then I said; I don’t know what that is, and I sure don’t know how to do it!

It is written in Psalms chapter 9: Tell the world about his unforgettable deeds.

It is written in Psalms chapter 96: Publish his glorious deeds among the nations. Tell everyone about the amazing things he does. It is written in Psalms chapter 105: Let the whole world know what he has done. Tell everyone about his miracles. It is written in Psalms chapter 145: Your faithful followers will bless you. They will talk together about the glory of your kingdom. They will tell about your mighty deeds.

 

In February 2009, I received my final notice from the Clark County Treasurer that unless I brought into the office a cashier’s check in the amount of $4,984.64 by March 20th, my home would be auctioned off to pay past due property taxes. I had been doing monthly concerts for three years, trying to do everything I could think of just to keep my head above water, and I failed. It was at this time one of my close friends told me to give him a list of all my friends, and he would contact them and tell them of my situation, but he said: “Because of the economy, times are tough; we’ll just have to see!” So I got down on my knees and began to cry out to God in desperation. I said: “I have done everything I know how to do! They’re going to take my home away from me; I ain’t gonna live like no damn bum! If this is all I got to look forward to, you can cash my chips in and take me home. I don’t know how to fix this! Help me!” After this, I went out for a while and frantically began to sob. I finally stopped crying when I said: “I saw you do it for Prentice, so do it for me. I trust you God!” Then I got my first Divine instruction. The Holy Spirit told me to play to him, for his enjoyment! That’s it? That’s all?!! I need $5,000.00. That doesn’t fix my problem!! But the Holy Spirit reminded me that I said: “I don’t know how to fix this,” and that I had asked him for help. Now obey and trust me! So from that day on until March 20th, that is exactly what I did. At the end of each day, I said with a great amount of hope: “I trust you Lord.” It was now March 19th, and I got a call from my friend John. He said: “I’m picking you up at 4:30 P.M., be ready.” “What for,” I asked? “We have to go to the bank” he said. We arrived at my branch at 4:55 P.M. All the employees knew me by first name. So Sam, the bank supervisor says: “Pat, what can I do for you?” At Sam’s desk, John pulls out $400.00. Then John pulls out a bundle of checks, hands them to me and says sign them. After I had signed them all, Sam added everything up. Sam looked at us and said: “This is for the house isn’t it?” I said “Yup.” He said: “Pat, I’m gonna do you a favor. I’m gonna put these checks right through. I’m gonna waive the mandatory waiting period to process these checks.” This was the first part of the miracle. The second part came when he said: “Now, let me go cut you a cashier’s check in the amount of $4,984.64!”

 

Wisdom is shown to be right by what results from it. – Matthew chapter 11

When I obeyed his instructions and trusted him alone to bring it to pass, he did! In the kingdom, God is dependable.

 

On 9-11-11, after I had returned home from church, a 40-60 mile per hour gale storm hit Las Vegas. My house was already deteriorating, so I stood in the house and prayed: “Lord, my house is deteriorating. My roof is falling apart, and my floor is too! I don’t know how much of this, the old house can take, help!” As I was walking through the house getting depressed, the Lord told me to speak to it. Speak to it?!! What’s that supposed to do? Those are 60 mile per hour gale force winds!!! After about five minutes, he said: “That’s what I did.” So I said to myself: I ain’t got nothing else better to do. So I stepped out my front door and I told the rain to stop falling, and the wind to stop blowing. Then I went back into the house and sat down. I didn’t expect anything to come of it. But about five minutes later, all was quiet. So I stepped outside and saw that the rain had stopped, and the wind was no more than a cool breeze. Once again, my house was saved.

 

It is written in Matthew chapter 11: Wisdom is shown to be right by what results from it. When I obeyed his instruction, and trusted him alone to bring it to pass, he did! In the kingdom, God is dependable.

 

On April 2nd 2012, I received a notification from The Clark County Treasurer’s office that I had until June 7th, 5:00 P.M. 2012, to pay in full $3,500.00, or my property would be auctioned off to pay property taxes. I had no money. I should have lost my mind! I sat down and wept bitterly for 10 minutes, then I stopped crying. The song that Rev. Minner sang so many times began to cross my mind: “I trust in God.”

I trust in God for instruction: What do you want me to do today?

I trust in God for direction for my future: What is my field of service for you? What is my destiny? The instruction that I obey today paves the way for the path I am to walk on later.

I trust in God for provision to accomplish every instruction I am given.

I trust in God for protection every day of my life.

In the kingdom, those who know your name trust in you. In the kingdom, the helpless put their trust in you. In the kingdom, the needy will not be ignored forever, when they obey your instruction, and trust you alone to bring it to pass. In the kingdom, the hopes of the poor will not always be crushed, when they obey your instruction, and trust you alone to bring it to pass. In the kingdom, no one who trusts in you will ever be disgraced. And that is why in the kingdom, I trust in you my God. I trust in your unfailing love. My heavenly father already knows all my needs, and he will give me all I need from day to day if I live for him, and make the kingdom of God my primary concern.

 

People began asking me: “Pat, how are you doing?” I replied: “just fine.” Well, June 7th came and passed with no 3,500.00. So I said: “O.K. Lord, now what do I do?” I lost the house. Where do I go from here? Go into all the world and tell the world about my unforgettable deeds. Wait a minute Lord, I have no transportation; no car, no truck, no motorcycle, how am I supposed to get there? Matthew chapter 10: “Go and announce to them that the kingdom of heaven is near. Don’t take any money with you. Don’t carry a traveler’s bag with an extra coat and sandals, or even a walking stick. Don’t hesitate to accept hospitality, because those who work deserve to be fed. Whenever you enter a city or village, search for a worthy man and stay in his home until you leave for the next town. When you are invited into someone’s home, give it your blessing.” So I began to call friends from all over the country, and told them I was coming to their city soon. To which they replied: “Come on Pat, we’ll be glad to have you!” On June 12th 2012, two of my Sue family of friends came to see me and said, what’s wrong, Pat? So I showed them the notice from the Clark County Treasurer. So they grabbed me up and said: Let’s go! We went to the County Treasurer’s Office and I said: “It’s already too late!” But we went anyway. The receptionist told us it was in the process of being deeded, but full payment would reverse the process. And that is exactly what happened. My house was returned to me!

In 2012, the Holy Spirit told me to go, tell the world about his unforgettable deeds. So I began to call friends from all over the country and told them I was coming to their city soon, to which they replied; “Come on Pat, we’ll be glad to have you.” On June 19th, I received a call from the F.P.C. and they told me to go to the Boys and Girls Club on Saturday, June 23rd because there was a gift there waiting for me. So I went that Saturday morning and they handed me a gift card for 500.00. On June 30th, I performed my farewell to Las Vegas Concert. During this concert, I received a love offering of $400.00, which paid for me to go and tell the world about his unforgettable deeds. I only completed half the tour and was forced to postpone the remainder of the tour until Christmas. I returned to Las Vegas on August 21st, 2012. By November 2nd, my house sold for $60.000.00. By the time all the unpaid bills had been paid, I was left with $37,000.00. On my 50th birthday, November 2nd, I performed a happy birthday to me concert and was given $400.00. On December 19th, I was scheduled to go to New Jersey, California, and Washington, to finish my tour. On December 17th, I received a call from the First Presbyterian Church Office and they asked me to come to the office the next day. So I did. When I arrived, they handed me a gift card and said: “We heard you were going on tour again so this is a little something for the trip, have a Merry Christmas!” The gift card was loaded with $500.00, so I left for New Jersey the next day and once again, my entire trip to tell the world about his unforgettable deeds was completely paid for!

 

For this, O Lord, I will praise you among the nations. I will praise you my God, and king, and bless your name forever and ever. I am telling the world about his unforgettable deeds. I am publishing his glorious deeds among the nations @ Loveallpeople.net. I am telling everyone about the amazing things he does. I am letting the whole world know what he has done. I tell everyone about his miracles. I praise the Lord every time I tell my testimony.

How do I get more?

It is written in the book of Daniel: Your Majesty, you are the head of gold. After your kingdom has come to an end, another great kingdom, inferior to yours, will rise to take your place. After that kingdom has fallen, yet a third great kingdom will rise to rule the world. Following that kingdom, there will be a fourth great kingdom as strong as iron. That kingdom will smash and crush all previous empires. During the reigns of those kings, the God of heaven will set up a kingdom that will never be destroyed. No one will ever conquer it! It will shatter all these kingdoms into nothingness, but it will stand forever!

It is written in Matthew chapter 7: A healthy tree produces good fruit, and an unhealthy tree produces bad fruit. A good tree cannot produce bad fruit, and a bad tree cannot produce good fruit. So every tree that does not produce good fruit is chopped down and thrown into the fire. Yes, the way to identify a tree or a person is by the kind of fruit that is produced. So, remain in me, and I will remain in you, for a branch cannot produce fruit if it is severed from the vine, and you cannot be fruitful unless you remain in me. Yes, I am the vine; you are the branches. Those who remain in me, and I in them, will produce much fruit. For apart from me you can do nothing. Anyone who does not remain in me is thrown away like a useless branch and withers. Such branches are gathered into a pile to be burned. But if you remain in me and my words remain in you, you may ask for anything you want, and it will be granted! When you produce much fruit, you are my true disciples. This brings great glory to my father -John chapter 15. Let me illustrate this:

It is written in Matthew chapter 10: Go and announce to them that the kingdom of heaven is near. Don’t take any money with you. Don’t carry a traveler’s bag with an extra coat and sandals or even a walking stick. It is written in Matthew chapter 6: Don’t worry about everyday life; food, drink, or clothes. My heavenly father already knows all my needs, and he will give me all I need from day to day, if I live for him and make the kingdom of God my primary concern. It is written in John chapter 10: “My sheep listen to my voice; I know them, and they follow me!” It is written in Matthew chapter 7: Therefore, Anyone who listens to my teachings and obeys me is wise. It is also written in Matthew chapter 11: “Wisdom is shown to be right by what results from it.”

Rev. Minner gave up his successful career and began to work with Love All People. Along with the career went the money, the credit cards, and the luxury cars. All that was left was the home, and the motor home, where the girls stayed. If they lost that, the girls would have no place to stay. We needed $1,800.00. Roger McDuff, a friend of Rev. Minners, invited him to a pastor’s convention in Anaheim, California. The Holy Spirit told Rev. Minner to go.

Rev. Minners family told him he was crazy to go all the way to California; 1. We have no money to pay these bills. 2. We have no food money. 3. We have no gas money, how are you going to get there? To which he replied: “I have to go, God told me to go.” So the group gathered together to pray before departing. Just then a knock at the door, Rev. Minner went to look through the peep hole and said; “Oh no, not another hand out.” But, he opened the door, and there stood Harmony, a young veteran who usually came over for coffee and conversation, but not this time. He said he couldn’t stay, and that the Lord told him to give Love All People $125.00. So he did and then left. Be careful how you treat strangers, you never know when you might be entertaining angels. With that money, we gassed up our vehicles, and left for Anaheim.

Love All People was expecting to receive a love offering for our first major appearance. Looking at the size of the crowd, we just knew we would have enough to catch up on all our bills! Then we got the word there would be no love offering that night. How are we going to pay for the motor home? How are we going to get home? Just before benediction, Dick Mills called Love All People to the podium so the people could stretch forth their hands and pray for us. As they were praying, people were standing in the aisles and placing money into the kid’s hands who began shoveling the money into their pockets. There was over $1,800.00 received that night.

It is written in Matthew chapter 6: My heavenly father already knows all my needs, and he will give me all I need from day to day, if I live for him, and make the kingdom of God my primary concern. In our early years, many churches wanted nothing to do with Love All People. Their fear was that this group of former gang members, and drug addicts, would have loose morals, resulting in a negative influence on their own children, or worse, be a cult!! In 1981, one Baptist preacher decided to come investigate for himself whether L.A.P. was the ‘real deal’, or not!

It was a normal Monday afternoon: teens being teens. So the curious pastor showed up and saw kids being kids. So the pastor and Rev. Minner began to converse intensely until the dinner hour. Then, over dinner, Rev. Minner shared with his guest, the vision God had given him. After dinner, our guest had the opportunity to meet our family, L.A.P. We shared our individual testimonies with him. By the end of the evening, he must have been convinced that we were indeed the ’Real Deal’, because after giving words of encouragement to every member, he got up to leave, and shook Rev. Minners hand and left. When Rev. Minner opened his hand, he immediately called a family meeting. As he cried, he began to recite the twenty-third Psalm. He began with; “The Lord is my shepherd.” As he unrolled a one hundred dollar bill, “I shall not want,” then another hundred dollar bill. By the time he finished reciting the twenty-third Psalm, he had unrolled $1,000.00. In light of L.A.P.’s current financial situation, this was another miracle story.

“What is faith?” It is written in Hebrews chapter 11: “It is the confident assurance that what we hope for is going to happen. It is the evidence of things we cannot yet see.” For in the kingdom, all the Lord’s promises prove true, when I obey your instruction, and trust you alone to bring it to pass. The New Testament equivalent is Matthew chapter 11: “All the teachings of the scriptures looked forward to this present time.” It is written in Deuteronomy chapter 8: “People need more than bread for their life. Real life comes by feeding on every word of the Lord.” In the kingdom, the instructions of the Lord are perfect reviving the soul. But unless I obey God better than the Pharisees and Sadducees do, I can’t enter the kingdom of heaven at all. For in the kingdom, the Holy Spirit is with those who obey him. Wait on the Lord. Trust in the Lord.

In February 2009, I received my final notice from the Clark County Treasurer that unless I brought into the office a cashier’s check in the amount of $4,984.64 by March 20th, my home would be auctioned off to pay past due property taxes.

I finally stopped crying when I said: “I saw you do it for Prentice, so do it for me. I trust you God!” Then I got my first Divine instruction. The Holy Spirit told me to play to him, for his enjoyment! That’s it? That’s all?!! I need $5,000.00. That doesn’t fix my problem!!

Wisdom is shown to be right by what results from it. – Matthew chapter 11

When I obeyed his instructions and trusted him alone to bring it to pass, he did! In the kingdom, God is dependable.                          

Don’t copy the behavior and customs of this world, but let God transform you into a new person by changing the way you think! Then you will know what God wants you to do and you will know how good and pleasing and perfect His will really is. Trust in the Lord with all your heart. Do not depend on your own understanding. Seek his will in all you do, and he will direct your paths! Then you will understand what is right, just, and fair. And you will know how to find the right course of action every time! The seed that fell on good soil represents those who truly hear and understand God’s word and produce a harvest of thirty, sixty, or even a hundred times as much as had been planted!

On April 2nd 2012, I received a notification from The Clark County Treasurer’s office that I had until June 7th, 5:00 P.M. 2012, to pay in full $3,500.00, or my property would be auctioned off to pay property taxes. I had no money. I should have lost my mind! I sat down and wept bitterly for 10 minutes, then I stopped crying. The song that Rev. Minner sang so many times began to cross my mind: “I trust in God.”

God blesses those who realize their need for him, for the kingdom of heaven is given to them. I am praying to you because I know you will answer, O God. Lead me in the right path, O Lord, tell me clearly what to do, and show me which way to turn. He did! Show me the path where I should walk, O Lord. Point out the right road for me to follow. Lead me by your truth and teach me. He did! In the kingdom, The Holy Spirit will answer when I call to him, when I obey your instruction, and trust you alone to bring it to pass. In the kingdom, the Holy Spirit has heard my plea. The Holy Spirit will answer my prayer, when I obey your instruction, and trust you alone to bring it to pass. He did! Show me your unfailing love in wonderful ways. He did! Create in me a clean heart O God, renew a right spirit within me, and make me willing to obey you. He did. In the kingdom, all the Lord’s promises prove true, when I obey your instruction, and trust you alone to bring it to pass. The New Testament equivalent is Matthew chapter 11: “All the teachings of the scriptures looked forward to this present time.” So don’t worry about everyday life; food, drink, or clothes, and don’t worry about tomorrow for tomorrow will bring its own worries. I don’t anymore! I let God transform me into a new person by changing the way I think! It is written in Matthew chapter 11: “Wisdom is shown to be right by what results from it.” When I obeyed his instruction, and trusted him alone to bring it to pass, he did. In the kingdom, God is dependable! Go and announce to them that the kingdom of heaven is here. I do that every time I tell my testimony!

 

HOW DO I GET MORE?

 

It is written in Exodus chapter 16: “In the evening, you will have meat to eat, and in the morning, you will be filled with bread.” …“That evening, vast numbers of quail arrived and covered the camp. The next morning, the desert all around the camp was wet with dew. When the dew disappeared, later in the morning, thin flakes white like frost covered the ground. What is it, they asked? It is the food the Lord has given you. Each household should gather as much as it needs. Do not keep any of it overnight“… “So the people of Israel ate manna for forty years until they arrived in the land of Canaan; where there were crops to eat.” It is written in Matthew chapter 6: “So don’t worry about everyday life: food, drink, or clothes. My heavenly father already knows all my needs, and he will give me all I need from day to day, if I live for him and make the kingdom of God my primary concern. So don’t worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will bring its own worries, today’s trouble is enough for today. And don’t store up treasures here on earth, store my treasures in heaven. Wherever my treasure is, there my heart and thoughts will also be.”

In 2012, the Holy Spirit told me to go, tell the world about his unforgettable deeds. So I began to call friends from all over the country and told them I was coming to their city soon, to which they replied; “Come on Pat, we’ll be glad to have you.” On June 19th, I received a call from the F.P.C. and they told me to go to the Boys and Girls Club on Saturday, June 23rd because there was a gift there waiting for me.

During this concert, I received a love offering of $400.00, which paid for me to go and tell the world about his unforgettable deeds. I only completed half the tour and was forced to postpone the remainder of the tour until Christmas. I returned to Las Vegas on August 21st, 2012. By November 2nd, my house sold for $60.000.00. By the time all the unpaid bills had been paid, I was left with $37,000.00. On my 50th birthday, November 2nd, I performed a happy birthday to me concert and was given $400.00. On December 19th, I was scheduled to go to New Jersey, California, and Washington, to finish my tour. On December 17th, I received a call from the First Presbyterian Church Office and they asked me to come to the office the next day. So I did. When I arrived, they handed me a gift card and said: “We heard you were going on tour again so this is a little something for the trip, have a Merry Christmas!” The gift card was loaded with $500.00, so I left for New Jersey the next day and once again, my entire trip to tell the world about his unforgettable deeds was completely paid for!

 

There is a time for everything, a season for every activity under heaven. In the kingdom, all the Lord’s promises prove true, when I obey your instruction, and trust you alone to bring it to pass. The New Testament equivalent is Matthew chapter 11: “All the teachings of the scriptures looked forward to this present time.” Now is the time, in the kingdom the Lord is my shepherd, I have everything I need. Now, in the kingdom, I delight in doing everything the Lord wants… I am like a tree planted along the river bank, bearing fruit each season without fail. My leaves never wither and in all I do I prosper.

Now, in the kingdom, every good thing I have comes from you, when I obey your instruction, and trust you alone to bring it to pass. It is not important to know how it is coming, but it is very important to know it is coming! Now, in the kingdom, I trust in your unfailing love: For instruction, what do you want me to do today? For direction for my future, what is my field of service for you? What is my destiny? The instruction that I obey today paves the way for the path I am to walk on later.

Bring me a higher love

Author: Pat Sue

It is written in the book of Daniel: Your Majesty, you are the head of gold. After your kingdom has come to an end, another great kingdom, inferior to yours, will rise to take your place. After that kingdom has fallen, yet a third great kingdom will rise to rule the world. Following that kingdom, there will be a fourth great kingdom as strong as iron. That kingdom will smash and crush all previous empires. During the reigns of those kings, the God of heaven will set up a kingdom that will never be destroyed. No one will ever conquer it! It will shatter all these kingdoms into nothingness, but it will stand forever!

Steve Winwood once made a special request in a song that he wrote. That request was; bring me a higher love! King David, the Psalmist, also made the same request of God in Psalms chapter 17; show me your unfailing love in wonderful ways. It is written in Psalms chapter 18; All the Lord’s promises prove true. The New Testament equivalent is Matthew chapter 11; all the teachings of the scriptures looked forward to this present time.

It is written in Psalms chapter 9: you, O Lord, do not abandon those who search for you. He does not ignore the cries of those who suffer. The needy will not be ignored forever. The hopes of the poor will not always be crushed. It is written in Psalms chapter 10: Lord, you know the hopes of the helpless. Surely, you will hear their cries and comfort them. It is written in Psalms chapter 14: The Lord is with those who obey him. It is written in Psalms chapter 18: The Lord lights a lamp for me. The Lord my God lights up my darkness. He makes my way perfect. It is written in Psalms chapter 34: The righteous person faces many troubles, but the Lord comes to the rescue each time. It is written in Psalms chapter 37: The Lord directs the steps of the Godly; he delights in every detail of their lives. It is written in Psalms chapter 25: the Lord shows the proper path to those who go astray.

In February 2009, I received my final notice from the Clark County Treasurer that unless I brought into the office a cashier’s check in the amount of $4,984.64 by March 20th, my home would be auctioned off to pay past due property taxes. I had been doing monthly concerts for three years, trying to do everything I could think of just to keep my head above water, and I failed. It was at this time one of my close friends told me to give him a list of all my friends, and he would contact them and tell them of my situation, but he said:” Because of the economy, times are tough, we’ll just have to see!” So I got down on my knees and began to cry out to God in desperation. I said: “I have done everything I know how to do! They’re going to take my home away from me; I ain’t gonna live like no damn bum! If this is all I got to look forward to, you can cash my chips in and take me home. I don’t know how to fix this! Help me!” After this, I went out for a while and frantically began to sob. I finally stopped crying when I said: “I saw you do it for Prentice, so do it for me. I trust you God!” Then I got my first Divine instruction. The Holy Spirit told me to play to him, for his enjoyment! That’s it? That’s all?!! I need $5,000.00. That doesn’t fix my problem!! But the Holy Spirit reminded me that I said: “I don’t know how to fix this,” and that I had asked him for help. Now obey and trust me! So from that day on until March 20th, that is exactly what I did. At the end of each day, I said with a great amount of hope: “I trust you Lord.” It was now March 19th, and I got a call from my friend John. He said: “I’m picking you up at 4:30 P.M., be ready.” “What for,” I asked? “We have to go to the bank” he said. We arrived at my branch at 4:55 P.M. All the employees knew me by first name. So Sam, the bank supervisor says: “Pat, what can I do for you?” At Sam’s desk, John pulls out $400.00. Then John pulls out a bundle of checks, hands them to me and says sign them. After I had signed them all, Sam added everything up. Sam looked at us and said: “This is for the house isn’t it?” I said “Yup.” He said: “Pat, I’m gonna do you a favor. I’m gonna put these checks through. I’m gonna waive the mandatory waiting period to process these checks.” This was the first part of the miracle. The second part came when he said: “Now, let me go cut you a cashier’s check in the amount of $4,984.64!”

Wisdom is shown to be right by what results from it. – Matthew chapter 11   When I obeyed his instructions and trusted him alone to bring it to pass, he did! In the kingdom, God is dependable.

On April 2nd 2012, I received a notification from The Clark County Treasurer’s office that I had until June 7th, 5:00 P.M. 2012, to pay in full $3,500.00, or my property would be auctioned off to pay property taxes. I had no money. I should have lost my mind! I sat down and wept bitterly for 10 minutes, then I stopped crying. The song that Rev. Minner sang so many times began to cross my mind: “I trust in God.”

I trust in God for instruction: What do you want me to do today?

I trust in God for direction for my future: What is my field of service for you? What is my destiny? The instruction that I obey today paves the way for the path I am to walk on later.

I trust in God for provision to accomplish every instruction I am given.

I trust in God for protection every day of my life.

In the kingdom, those who know your name trust in you. In the kingdom, the helpless put their trust in you. In the kingdom, the needy will not be ignored forever, when they obey your instruction, and trust you alone to bring it to pass. In the kingdom, the hopes of the poor will not always be crushed, when they obey your instruction, and trust you alone to bring it to pass. In the kingdom, no one who trusts in you will ever be disgraced. And that is why in the kingdom, I trust in you my God. I trust in your unfailing love. My heavenly father already knows all my needs, and he will give me all I need from day to day if I live for him, and make the kingdom of God my primary concern.

People began asking me: “Pat, how are you doing?” I replied: “just fine.” Well, June 7th came and passed with no 3,500.00. So I said: “O.K. Lord, now what do I do?” I lost the house. Where do I go from here? Go into all the world and tell the world about my unforgettable deeds. Wait a minute Lord, I have no transportation; no car, no truck, no motorcycle, how am I supposed to get there? Matthew chapter 10: “Go and announce to them that the kingdom of heaven is near. Don’t take any money with you. Don’t carry a traveler’s bag with an extra coat and sandals, or even a walking stick. Don’t hesitate to accept hospitality, because those who work deserve to be fed. Whenever you enter a city or village, search for a worthy man and stay in his home until you leave for the next town. When you are invited into someone’s home, give it your blessing.” So I began to call friends from all over the country, and told them I was coming to their city soon. To which they replied: “Come on Pat, we’ll be glad to have you!” On June 12th 2012, two of my Sue family of friends came to see me and said, what’s wrong, Pat? So I showed them the notice from the Clark County Treasurer. So they grabbed me up and said: Let’s go! We went to the County Treasurer’s Office and I said: “It’s already too late!” But we went anyway. The receptionist told us it was in the process of being deeded, but full payment would reverse the process. And that is exactly what happened. My house was returned to me!

God blesses those who realize their need for him, for the kingdom of heaven is given to them. I am praying to you because I know you will answer, O God. Lead me in the right path, O Lord, tell me clearly what to do, and show me which way to turn. He did! Show me the path where I should walk, O Lord. Point out the right road for me to follow. Lead me by your truth and teach me. He did! In the kingdom, The Holy Spirit will answer when I call to him, when I obey your instruction, and trust you alone to bring it to pass. In the kingdom, the Holy Spirit has heard my plea. The Holy Spirit will answer my prayer, when I obey your instruction, and trust you alone to bring it to pass. He did! Show me your unfailing love in wonderful ways. He did! Create in me a clean heart O God, renew a right spirit within me, and make me willing to obey you. He did. In the kingdom, all the Lord’s promises prove true, when I obey your instruction, and trust you alone to bring it to pass. The New Testament equivalent is Matthew chapter 11: “All the teachings of the scriptures looked forward to this present time.” So don’t worry about everyday life; food, drink, or clothes, and don’t worry about tomorrow for tomorrow will bring its own worries. I don’t anymore! I let God transform me into a new person by changing the way I think! It is written in Matthew chapter 11: “Wisdom is shown to be right by what results from it.” When I obeyed his instruction, and trusted him alone to bring it to pass, he did. In the kingdom, God is dependable! Go and announce to them that the kingdom of heaven is here. I do that every time I tell my testimony!

In 2012, the Holy Spirit told me to go, tell the world about his unforgettable deeds. So I began to call friends from all over the country and told them I was coming to their city soon, to which they replied; “Come on Pat, we’ll be glad to have you.” On June 19th, I received a call from the F.P.C. and they told me to go to the Boys and Girls Club on Saturday, June 23rd because there was a gift there waiting for me. So I went that Saturday morning and they handed me a gift card for 500.00. On June 30th, I performed my farewell to Las Vegas Concert. During this concert, I received a love offering of $400.00, which paid for me to go and tell the world about his unforgettable deeds. I only completed half the tour and was forced to postpone the remainder of the tour until Christmas. I returned to Las Vegas on August 21st, 2012. By November 2nd, my house sold for $60.000.00. By the time all the unpaid bills had been paid, I was left with $37,000.00. On my 50th birthday, November 2nd, I performed a happy birthday to me concert and was given $400.00. On December 19th, I was scheduled to go to New Jersey, California, and Washington, to finish my tour. On December 17th, I received a call from the First Presbyterian Church Office and they asked me to come to the office the next day. So I did. When I arrived, they handed me a gift card and said: “We heard you were going on tour again so this is a little something for the trip, have a Merry Christmas!” The gift card was loaded with $500.00, so I left for New Jersey the next day and once again, my entire trip to tell the world about his unforgettable deeds was completely paid for! There is a time for everything, a season for every activity under heaven. In the kingdom, all the Lord’s promises prove true, when I obey your instruction, and trust you alone to bring it to pass. The New Testament equivalent is Matthew chapter 11: “All the teachings of the scriptures looked forward to this present time.” Now is the time, in the kingdom the Lord is my shepherd, I have everything I need. Now, in the kingdom, I delight in doing everything the Lord wants… I am like a tree planted along the river bank, bearing fruit each season without fail. My leaves never wither and in all I do I prosper.

Now, in the kingdom, every good thing I have comes from you, when I obey your instruction, and trust you alone to bring it to pass. It is not important to know how it is coming, but it is very important to know it is coming! Now, in the kingdom, I trust in your unfailing love: For instruction, what do you want me to do today? For direction for my future, what is my field of service for you? What is my destiny? The instruction that I obey today paves the way for the path I am to walk on later. For provision to accomplish every instruction I am given, for protection every day of my life.

 

In the kingdom, to those who listen to my teaching, more understanding will be given, and they will have an abundance of knowledge. In the kingdom, anyone who listens to my teachings and obeys me is wise. In the kingdom, wisdom is shown to be right by what results from it. When I obeyed his instruction, and trusted him alone to bring it to pass, he did. For truly, in the kingdom, God is dependable!!!

How do I get there from here?

Author: Pat Sue

 

My name is Pat Sue. I began playing piano at 5 years of age. My dad told me that I would be a world renowned concert pianist. So I said: “how do I get there from here?” My dad replied: “practice, practice, practice.” So for the next 10 years, that is exactly what I did. Then one day, I again asked my dad: “how do I get there from here?” He admitted that he didn’t know. That’s when I lost all hope!! I stopped practicing because I had no direction, no purpose. For three years I did nothing at all! That’s when my dad first prayed to God, (on my behalf). It went something like this; God, please help my boy, because I don’t know how! Then my dad heard about this ‘Jazz singer’ who was helping kids. So my dad asked me if I wanted to go with him to meet him. I said; sure, why not. When I heard him sing, a light went off in my head. I said to myself; that’s how I get there! This is when I met Love All People. I stayed in L.A.P. for 15 years. Then I returned to my childhood home, and stayed with my mother until she died. After that I pursued my dad’s dream of becoming a world renowned concert pianist, because this was my talent, the only thing I knew how to do well. After a decade, I once again lost all hope, because I did everything I knew just to survive, and I failed!!

Oh Lord, FIX ME, or I will surely die!

The stories of L.A.P., I have called miraculous because they should not have happened!! Normally, they do not happen, even in church! So why did they happen to Love All People? This was my answer; Because Rev. Minner was in the kingdom!!! First and foremost, Pastor Minner was a servant of Yeshua! When Pastor Minner obeyed His instructions and trusted Him alone to bring ’It’ to pass, He did! It is not important to know how it is coming, but it is very important to know it is coming!! Pastor Minner was instructed by the Holy Spirit to quit show business and then to tell the children he loved them. Well then, how is the ministry going to be funded? God said by you trusting me daily for everything! So don’t worry about everyday life; food, drink, or clothes. Your heavenly father already knows all your needs, and he will give you all you need from day to day, if you live for him, and make the kingdom of God your primary concern. Pastor Minner memorized the 23rd Psalm, The Lord’s Prayer, and John 3:16. That’s all the scripture he knew. And yet, when Pastor Minner obeyed The Holy Spirit’s instruction, and put his trust in The Holy Spirit alone, Yeshua’s teaching’s came to pass, as written in each story! I am what I am today, because Pastor Minner discipled me. Not with words, but by watching him! I left Love All People in 1995. The cry of my heart was; whatever it is that you got, I want it. I want to be just like you! Keep on asking, and you will be given what you ask for. – Matthew chapter 7. There is a time for everything. A season for every activity under heaven! – Ecclesiastes chapter 3. Prentice died in 2008. The student became the teacher in 2009. These are my stories.

“What is faith?” It is written in Hebrews chapter 11: “It is the confident assurance that what we hope for is going to happen. It is the evidence of things we cannot yet see.” For in the kingdom, all the Lord’s promises prove true, when I obey your instruction, and trust you alone to bring it to pass. The New Testament equivalent is Matthew chapter 11: “All the teachings of the scriptures looked forward to this present time.” It is written in Deuteronomy chapter 8: “People need more than bread for their life. Real life comes by feeding on every word of the Lord.” In the kingdom, the instructions of the Lord are perfect reviving the soul. But unless I obey God better than the Pharisees and Sadducees do, I can’t enter the kingdom of heaven at all. For in the kingdom, the Holy Spirit is with those who obey him. Wait on the Lord. Trust in the Lord.

In February 2009, I received my final notice from the Clark County Treasurer that unless I brought into the office a cashier’s check in the amount of $4,984.64 by March 20th, my home would be auctioned off to pay past due property taxes. I had been doing monthly concerts for three years, trying to do everything I could think of just to keep my head above water, and I failed. It was at this time one of my close friends told me to give him a list of all my friends, and he would contact them and tell them of my situation, but he said: “Because of the economy, times are tough; we’ll just have to see!” So I got down on my knees and began to cry out to God in desperation. I said: “I have done everything I know how to do! They’re going to take my home away from me; I ain’t gonna live like no damn bum! If this is all I got to look forward to, you can cash my chips in and take me home. I don’t know how to fix this! Help me!” After this, I went out for a while and frantically began to sob. I finally stopped crying when I said: “I saw you do it for Prentice, so do it for me. I trust you God!” Then I got my first Divine instruction.

The second part came when he said: “Now, let me go cut you a cashier’s check in the amount of $4,984.64!”

Wisdom is shown to be right by what results from it. – Matthew chapter 11

When I obeyed his instructions and trusted him alone to bring it to pass, he did! In the kingdom, God is dependable.

It is written in Matthew chapter 8: “Then Yeshua got into the boat and started across the lake with his disciples. Suddenly, a terrible storm came up with waves breaking into the boat. But Yeshua was sleeping. The disciples went to him and woke him up shouting: “Lord, save us we’re going to drown.” Yeshua answered them: “Why are you afraid? You have so little faith.” Then he stood up and rebuked the wind and waves, and suddenly all was calm.

On 9-11-11, after I had returned home from church, a 40-60 mile per hour gale storm hit Las Vegas. My house was already deteriorating, So, I stood in the house and prayed: “Lord, my house is deteriorating. My roof is falling apart, and my floor is too! I don’t know how much of this, the old house can take, help!” As I was walking through the house getting depressed, the Lord told me to speak to it. Speak to it?!! What’s that supposed to do? Those are 60 mile per hour gale force winds!!! After about five minutes, he said: “That’s what I did.” So I said to myself: I ain’t got nothing else better to do. So I stepped out my front door and I told the rain to stop falling, and the wind to stop blowing. Then I went back into the house and sat down. I didn’t expect anything to come of it. But about five minutes later, all was quiet. So I stepped outside and saw that the rain had stopped, and the wind was no more than a cool breeze. Once again, my house was saved.

It is written in Matthew chapter 11: Wisdom is shown to be right by what results from it. When I obeyed his instruction, and trusted him alone to bring it to pass, he did! In the kingdom, God is dependable.

Don’t copy the behavior and customs of this world, but let God transform you into a new person by changing the way you think! Then you will know what God wants you to do and you will know how good and pleasing and perfect His will really is. Trust in the Lord with all your heart. Do not depend on your own understanding. Seek his will in all you do, and he will direct your paths! Then you will understand what is right, just, and fair. And you will know how to find the right course of action every time! The seed that fell on good soil represents those who truly hear and understand God’s word and produce a harvest of thirty, sixty, or even a hundred times as much as had been planted!

On April 2nd 2012, I received a notification from The Clark County Treasurer’s office that I had until June 7th, 5:00 P.M. 2012, to pay in full $3,500.00, or my property would be auctioned off to pay property taxes.

It is written in Exodus chapter 16: “In the evening, you will have meat to eat, and in the morning, you will be filled with bread.” …“That evening, vast numbers of quail arrived and covered the camp. The next morning, the desert all around the camp was wet with dew. When the dew disappeared, later in the morning, thin flakes white like frost covered the ground. What is it, they asked? It is the food the Lord has given you. Each household should gather as much as it needs. Do not keep any of it overnight“… “So the people of Israel ate manna for forty years until they arrived in the land of Canaan; where there were crops to eat.” It is written in Matthew chapter 6: “So don’t worry about everyday life: food, drink, or clothes. My heavenly father already knows all my needs, and he will give me all I need from day to day, if I live for him and make the kingdom of God my primary concern. So don’t worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will bring its own worries, today’s trouble is enough for today. And don’t store up treasures here on earth, store my treasures in heaven. Wherever my treasure is, there my heart and thoughts will also be.”

It is written in Psalms chapter 10: Proud and wicked people viciously oppress the poor. They brag about their evil desires. They praise the greedy and curse the Lord. These wicked people are too proud to seek God. They seem to think that God is dead. Yet they succeed in everything they do. They do not see your punishment awaiting them. They pour scorn on all their enemies. They say to themselves; nothing bad will ever happen to us. We will be free of trouble forever. Their mouths are full of cursing, lies, and threats. Trouble and evil are on the tips of their tongues. They lurk in dark alleys murdering the innocent who pass by. They are always searching for some helpless victim. Like lions, they crouch silently, waiting to pounce on the helpless. Like hunters, they capture their victims, and drag them away in nets. The helpless are overwhelmed and collapse. They fall beneath the strength of the wicked. The wicked say to themselves God is not watching, he will never notice.

It is written in Psalms chapter 11: The wicked are stringing their bows and fitting their arrows on the bowstrings. They shoot from the shadows at those whose hearts are right. The foundations of law and order have collapsed. What can the righteous do?

It is written in Psalms chapter 12: They say; we will lie to our hearts content. Our lips are our own. Who can stop us?

It is written in Psalms chapter 14: The wicked frustrate the plans of the oppressed! All these things are happening today, and have been happening for many decades, but don’t take my word for it, read your daily paper.

Now, for that good news!!!

It is written in Psalms chapter 1: Sinners will have no place among the Godly. It is written in Psalms chapter 4: I can be sure of this; the Lord set apart the Godly for himself. For example; it is written in Psalms chapter 18: (In the kingdom), to the faithful, you show yourself faithful. To those with integrity, you show integrity. To the pure, you show yourself pure. But, to the wicked, you show yourself hostile. You rescue the humble, but you humiliate the proud.

It is written in Psalms chapter 34: (In the kingdom), the righteous person faces many troubles, but the Lord comes to the rescue each time, It is written in Psalms chapter 37: (In the kingdom), The Lord directs the steps of the godly; he delights in every detail of their lives.

The stories of L.A.P., I have called miraculous because they should not have happened!! Normally, they do not happen, even in church! So why did they happen to Love All People? This was my answer; Because Rev. Minner was in the kingdom!!! First and foremost, Pastor Minner was a servant of Yeshua! When Pastor Minner obeyed His instructions and trusted Him alone to bring ’It’ to pass, He did! It is not important to know how it is coming, but it is very important to know it is coming!! Pastor Minner was instructed by the Holy Spirit to quit show business and then to tell the children he loved them. Well then, how is the ministry going to be funded? God said by you trusting me daily for everything! So don’t worry about everyday life; food, drink, or clothes. Your heavenly father already knows all your needs, and he will give you all you need from day to day, if you live for him, and make the kingdom of God your primary concern, (Matthew chapter 6). Pastor Minner memorized the 23rd Psalm, The Lord’s Prayer, and John 3:16. That’s all the scripture he knew. And yet, when Pastor Minner obeyed The Holy Spirit’s instruction, and put his trust in The Holy Spirit alone, Yeshua’s teaching’s came to pass, as written in each story! I am what I am today, because Pastor Minner discipled me. Not with words, but by watching him! I left Love All People in 1995. The cry of my heart was; whatever it is that you got, I want it. I want to be just like you! Keep on asking, and you will be given what you ask for – Matthew chapter 7. There is a time for everything. A season for every activity under heaven! – Ecclesiastes chapter 3. Prentice died in 2008. The student became the teacher in 2009. These are our stories.

Rev Minner gave up his successful career and began to work with Love All People. Along with the career went the money, the credit cards, and the luxury cars. All that was left was the home, and the motor home, where the girls stayed. If they lost that, the girls would have no place to stay. We needed $1,800.00.           Roger McDuff, a friend of Rev. Minner, invited him to a pastor’s convention in Anaheim, California. The Holy Spirit told Rev. Minner to go.

Rev. Minners family told him he was crazy to go all the way to California; 1. We have no money to pay these bills. 2. We have no food money. 3. We have no gas money, how are you going to get there? To which he replied: “I have to go, God told me to go.” So the group gathered together to pray before departing. Just then a knock at the door, Rev. Minner went to look through the peep hole and said; “Oh no, not another hand out.” But, he opened the door, and there stood Harmony, a young veteran who usually came over for coffee and conversation. But, not this time. He said he couldn’t stay, and that the Lord told him to give Love All People $125.00. So he did and then left. Be careful how you treat strangers, you never know when you might be entertaining angels. With that money, we gassed up our vehicles, and left for Anaheim.

Love All People was expecting to receive a love offering for our first major appearance. Looking at the size of the crowd, we just knew we would have enough to catch up on all our bills! Then we got the word there would be no love offering that night. How are we going to pay for the motor home? How are we going to get home? Just before benediction, Dick Mills called Love All People to the podium so the people could stretch forth their hands and pray for us. As they were praying, people were standing in the aisles and placing money into the kid’s hands, who began shoveling the money into their pockets. There was over $1,800.00 received that night.

“What is faith?” It is written in Hebrews chapter 11: “It is the confident assurance that what we hope for is going to happen. It is the evidence of things we cannot yet see.” For in the kingdom, all the Lord’s promises prove true, when I obey your instruction, and trust you alone to bring it to pass. The New Testament equivalent is Matthew chapter 11: “All the teachings of the scriptures looked forward to this present time.” It is written in Deuteronomy chapter 8: “People need more than bread for their life. Real life comes by feeding on every word of the Lord.” In the kingdom, the instructions of the Lord are perfect reviving the soul. But unless I obey God better than the Pharisees and Sadducees do, I can’t enter the kingdom of heaven at all. For in the kingdom, the Holy Spirit is with those who obey him. Wait on the Lord. Trust in the Lord.

In February 2009, I received my final notice from the Clark County Treasurer that unless I brought into the office a cashier’s check in the amount of $4,984.64 by March 20th, my home would be auctioned off to pay past due property taxes. I had been doing monthly concerts for three years, trying to do everything I could think of just to keep my head above water, and I failed. It was at this time one of my close friends told me to give him a list of all my friends, and he would contact them and tell them of my situation, but he said: “Because of the economy, times are tough; we’ll just have to see!” So I got down on my knees and began to cry out to God in desperation. I said: “I have done everything I know how to do! They’re going to take my home away from me; I ain’t gonna live like no damn bum! If this is all I got to look forward to, you can cash my chips in and take me home. I don’t know how to fix this! Help me!” After this, I went out for a while and frantically began to sob. I finally stopped crying when I said: “I saw you do it for Prentice, so do it for me. I trust you God!” Then I got my first Divine instruction. The Holy Spirit told me to play to him, for his enjoyment! That’s it? That’s all?!! I need $5,000.00. That doesn’t fix my problem!! But the Holy Spirit reminded me that I said: “I don’t know how to fix this,” and that I had asked him for help. Now obey and trust me! So from that day on until March 20th, that is exactly what I did. At the end of each day, I said with a great amount of hope: “I trust you Lord.” It was now March 19th, and I got a call from my friend John. He said: “I’m picking you up at 4:30 P.M., be ready.” “What for,” I asked? “We have to go to the bank” he said. We arrived at my branch at 4:55 P.M. All the employees knew me by first name. So Sam, the bank supervisor says: “Pat, what can I do for you?” At Sam’s desk, John pulls out $400.00. Then John pulls out a bundle of checks, hands them to me and says sign them. After I had signed them all, Sam added everything up. Sam looked at us and said: “This is for the house isn’t it?” I said “Yup.” He said: “Pat, I’m gonna do you a favor. I’m gonna put these checks through. I’m gonna waive the mandatory waiting period to process these checks.” This was the first part of the miracle. The second part came when he said: “Now, let me go cut you a cashier’s check in the amount of $4,984.64!”

Wisdom is shown to be right by what results from it. – Matthew chapter 11   When I obeyed his instructions and trusted him alone to bring it to pass, he did! In the kingdom, God is dependable.

Don’t copy the behavior and customs of this world, but let God transform you into a new person by changing the way you think! Then you will know what God wants you to do and you will know how good and pleasing and perfect His will really is. Trust in the Lord with all your heart. Do not depend on your own understanding. Seek his will in all you do, and he will direct your paths! Then you will understand what is right, just, and fair. And you will know how to find the right course of action every time! The seed that fell on good soil represents those who truly hear and understand God’s word and produce a harvest of thirty, sixty, or even a hundred times as much as had been planted!

On April 2nd 2012, I received a notification from The Clark County Treasurer’s office that I had until June 7th, 5:00 P.M. 2012, to pay in full $3,500.00, or my property would be auctioned off to pay property taxes. I had no money. I should have lost my mind! I sat down and wept bitterly for 10 minutes. Then I stopped crying. The song that Rev. Minner sang so many times began to cross my mind: “I trust in God.”                                                                                                                          I trust in God for instruction: What do you want me to do today?

I trust in God for direction for my future: What is my field of service for you? What is my destiny? The instruction that I obey today paves the way for the path I am to walk on later.

I trust in God for provision to accomplish every instruction I am given.

I trust in God for protection every day of my life.

In the kingdom, those who know your name trust in you. In the kingdom, the helpless put their trust in you. In the kingdom, the needy will not be ignored forever, when they obey your instruction, and trust you alone to bring it to pass. In the kingdom, the hopes of the poor will not always be crushed, when they obey your instruction, and trust you alone to bring it to pass. In the kingdom, no one who trusts in you will ever be disgraced. And that is why in the kingdom, I trust in you my God. I trust in your unfailing love. My heavenly father already knows all my needs, and he will give me all I need from day to day if I live for him, and make the kingdom of God my primary concern.

People began asking me: “Pat, how are you doing?” I replied: “just fine.” Well, June 7th came and passed with no 3,500.00. So I said: “O.K. Lord, now what do I do?” I lost the house. Where do I go from here? Go into all the world and tell the world about my unforgettable deeds. Wait a minute, Lord; I have no transportation; no car, no truck, no motorcycle. How am I supposed to get there? Matthew chapter 10: “Go and announce to them that the kingdom of heaven is near. Don’t take any money with you. Don’t carry a traveler’s bag with an extra coat and sandals, or even a walking stick. Don’t hesitate to accept hospitality, because those who work deserve to be fed. Whenever you enter a city or village, search for a worthy man and stay in his home until you leave for the next town. When you are invited into someone’s home, give it your blessing.” So I began to call friends from all over the country, and told them I was coming to their city soon. To which they replied: “Come on Pat, we’ll be glad to have you!” On June 12th 2012, two of my Sue family of friends came to see me and said, what’s wrong, Pat? So I showed them the notice from the Clark County Treasurer. So they grabbed me up and said: Let’s go! We went to the County Treasurer’s Office and I said: “It’s already too late!” But we went anyway. The receptionist told us it was in the process of being deeded, but full payment would reverse the process. And that is exactly what happened. My house was returned to me!

God blesses those who realize their need for him, for the kingdom of heaven is given to them. I am praying to you because I know you will answer, O God. Lead me in the right path, O Lord, tell me clearly what to do, and show me which way to turn. He did! Show me the path where I should walk, O Lord. Point out the right road for me to follow. Lead me by your truth and teach me. He did! In the kingdom, The Holy Spirit will answer when I call to him, when I obey your instruction, and trust you alone to bring it to pass. In the kingdom, the Holy Spirit has heard my plea. The Holy Spirit will answer my prayer, when I obey your instruction, and trust you alone to bring it to pass. He did! Show me your unfailing love in wonderful ways. He did! Create in me a clean heart O God, renew a right spirit within me, and make me willing to obey you. He did. In the kingdom, all the Lord’s promises prove true, when I obey your instruction, and trust you alone to bring it to pass. The New Testament equivalent is Matthew chapter 11: “All the teachings of the scriptures looked forward to this present time.” So don’t worry about everyday life; food, drink, or clothes, and don’t worry about tomorrow for tomorrow will bring its own worries. I don’t anymore! I let God transform me into a new person by changing the way I think! It is written in Matthew chapter 11: “Wisdom is shown to be right by what results from it.” When I obeyed his instruction, and trusted him alone to bring it to pass, he did. In the kingdom, God is dependable! Go and announce to them that the kingdom of heaven is here. I do that every time I tell my testimony!

I am praying to you because I know you will answer, O God.

It is written in Psalms chapter 17: I am praying to you because I know you will answer, O God. Bend down and listen as I pray. It is written in Psalms chapter 5: Each morning I bring my requests to you and wait expectantly. It is written in Psalms chapter 4: The Lord will answer when I call to him. It is written in Psalms chapter 6: The Lord has heard my plea; the Lord will answer my prayer.

It was at the peak of his career that Rev. Minner began to hear the call of God: “Give it all up, Prentice. I’ve got a job for you to do.” After a period of time, my friend said: “alright I’ll go.” But he still was not ready to give up show business. At first, he tried to do both; run the ministry, and keep his career going. But this resulted in Rev. Minner being in a constant state of turmoil, which led to this prayer: “Please God, give me a sign. “ Be careful what you ask for, you may get it! After he finished praying, he told his wife Pam, and then went to perform.

 

Prentice always performed with a band. So therefore, he always carried his charts with him. He had all of the songs he performed arranged. Without these charts, the musicians could not play the show, for the musicians all read music. So it was the strictest rule that everyone kept their eyes on the music. That night, John Lerner had stopped to put a few quarters in the slot machines. John hit a jackpot and came out and informed everybody. Prentice and a couple of band members were on one bench and the rest of the band were on the other, with the music case between them. Prentice and the band turned to congratulate John. When they turned around, the music case containing all the music was gone and no one else was in the vicinity. The music case had vanished. Later that evening, Pam reminded Prentice of his prayer for direction: “Well, I guess you got your prayer answered pretty fast.”

It was spring of 1986. We were just finishing a tour of schools in Washington State sponsored by M.A.D.D. It was during this time that the Holy Spirit instructed Pastor Minner to take L.A.P. and begin to travel all over the country wherever he was sent. But Rick wanted to be an entertainer, just like Prentice. Since Vegas was the entertainment capital of the world, well, you get the idea. What about Charles, whose heart’s desire was to get his music published and heard. And most important of all, was his wife Pam, who had a good job here in Las Vegas. So Prentice decided to stay in Vegas. Things went well until fall. L.A.P. would have a morning meeting every day without fail. The purpose was devotion, a time of teaching, and daily schedule. Only this morning was different. Prentice came to the meeting more somber than we’d ever seen him. He began to weep as he announced that there was going to be a tragedy, and that it would take place in our own front yard! The Holy Spirit revealed, however, that everything would be o.k. Less than two weeks later, Rick Lane, and Jay Forde, were shot in our front yard. The doctor who removed their bullets called the incident “Miraculous,” saying: “The bullets were hollow points and ordinarily open up on impact! But these bullets did not open!!”

 

A few days later, in the still of the night, the Holy Spirit woke Prentice up and warned him to flee to California for safety. With only $250.00, no place to sing, no place to stay, Prentice told everyone to pack up, we were leaving for California. This time he was obedient! When we arrived in L.A., we were invited to sing a song or two, at a Minister’s Alliance meeting which hosted ministers from all over California. When Pastor Minner mentioned that we needed a place to stay, one lady offered us the use of her home. John called Pastor Minner and told him that we needed $7,000.00 to keep our homes by the following Saturday afternoon. During devotion and announcements, Pastor Minner suddenly stopped. Then he began to name off seven girls in the group and instructed them to isolate themselves from the rest of the group for three hours and pray for our miracle. One of the girls’ mother, whom he was supposed to call, was visiting, so Pastor Minner substituted another girl in her place. Shauna went to Pastor Minner and said: “Prentice, why didn’t you call my name? I am supposed to be one of the seven in the prayer group, aren’t I? This is far more important than visiting!”

 

Three hours later, the girls came out singing a victory song. They didn’t know how the Lord was going to work it out but they were sure that something really great was about to happen! That’s faith! Between Wednesday and the following Sunday, we received eight invitations to sing at various churches in that area. We received over $7,800.00 in one day with enough time to get the money back to John for our homes! HALLELUJAH.

L.A.P. was now in Atlanta, Georgia, where we had been for over 2 weeks. We were leaving for Nashville, Tennessee, which was the next stop of our ‘Faith’ tour. Pastor Minner got a call from John who told him we needed $5,000.00 to save our homes. Pastor Minner told us the situation, and instructed us to get down on our knees and pray right there on the bus! So we did! A short while later, Pastor Minner told the bus driver to turn the bus around. Then Rick and Charles asked why. Pastor Minner replied: The Holy Spirit said we were going the wrong direction. The $5,000.00 is waiting for us in Atlanta. One of our members remarked: Prentice, that pond has already been fished from. Let’s move on to Nashville. But we obeyed Pastor Minner’s instructions from the Holy Spirit and went back to Atlanta. Pastor made some calls to some Pastors in the area and by Sunday, we had 2 churches scheduled. By the time we finished both church services, we had over $750.00. A little old lady said: “Ya’ all should come to my church“. Well, we rolled our eyes in disappointment, But Pastor Minner said: “We ain’t got nothing better to do.” So we all packed into the bus and followed the little old lady to her church, already in session. She introduced us to the church and asked them to let us sing a song or two.  They did, so we sang and told two testimonies. As they were taking up the offering, one of our girls leaned over to Pastor and said with five fingers raised: “Where’s the five thousand dollars?” Then, as the Pastor called for benediction, a voice called out from the audience: “Rev. Jones, Rev. Jones, I forgot my checkbook at home, but if this group will wait for me, I’m going to write them a check for $5,000.00!!! When Pastor Minner obeyed the Holy Spirit’s instructions and trusted him alone to bring it to pass, he did!!! 

In February 2009, I received my final notice from the Clark County Treasurer that unless I brought into the office a cashier’s check in the amount of $4,984.64 by March 20th, my home would be auctioned off to pay past due property taxes.

No matter what situation I am lead into, the Holy Spirit will deliver me!

It is written in Exodus chapter 13-14: The Israelites left Succoth and camped at Etham on the edge of the wilderness. The Lord went ahead of them. He guided them during the day with a pillar of cloud, and he provided light at night with a pillar of fire. This allowed them to travel by day or by night. And the Lord did not remove the pillar of cloud or pillar of fire from it’s place in front of the people. Then the Lord gave these instructions to Moses: “Order the Israelites to turn back and camp by Pi-hahiroth between Migdol and the sea.” Camp there along the shore, across from Baalzephon… So the Israelites camped there as they were told. When word reached the king of Egypt that the Israelites had fled… Pharaoh harnessed his chariot and called up his troops. He took with him 600 of Egypt’s best chariots, along with the rest of the chariots of Egypt, each with it’s commander. The Lord hardened the heart of Pharaoh, the king of Egypt, so he chased after the people of Israel, who had left with fists raised in defiance… The Egyptians caught up with the people of Israel as they were camped beside the shore near Pi-hahiroth, across from Baalzephon… Then the angel of God, who had been leading the people of Israel, moved to the rear of the camp. The pillar of cloud also moved from the front and stood behind them. The cloud settled between the Egyptian and Israelite camps. As darkness fell, the cloud turned to fire, lighting up the night. But the Egyptians and Israelites did not approach each other all night. Then Moses raised his hand over the sea, and the Lord opened up a path through the water with a strong east wind. The wind blew all that night, turning the seabed into dry land. So the people of Israel walked through the middle of the sea on dry ground, with walls of water on each side! Then the Egyptians- all of Pharaoh’s horses, chariots, and charioteers, chased them into the middle of the sea… When all the Israelites had reached the other side, the Lord said to Moses: “Raise your hand over the sea again. Then the waters will rush back and cover the Egyptians and their chariots and charioteers.” So as the sun began to rise, Moses raised his hand over the sea, and the water rushed back into it’s usual place. The Egyptians tried to escape, but the Lord swept them into the sea. Then the waters returned and covered all the chariots and charioteers, the entire army of Pharaoh. Of all the Egyptians who had chased the Israelites into the sea, not a single one survived.

It is written in Exodus chapter 17: At the Lord’s command, the whole community of Israel left the wilderness of Sin and moved from place to place. Eventually they camped at Rephidim, but there was no water there for the people to drink. So once more the people complained against Moses. “Give us water to drink!” they demanded. “Quiet!” Moses replied. “Why are you complaining against me? And why are you testing the Lord?” But tormented by thirst, they continued to argue with Moses. “Why did you bring us out of Egypt? Are you trying to kill us, our children, and our livestock with thirst? Then Moses cried out to the Lord, “What should I do with these people? They are ready to stone me!” The Lord said to Moses, “Walk out in front of the people. Take your staff, the one you used when you struck the water of the Nile, and call some of the elders of Israel to join you. I will stand before you on the rock at Mount Sinai. Strike the rock, and water will come gushing out. Then the people will be able to drink.” So Moses struck the rock as he was told, and water gushed out as the elders looked on.

Rev Minner gave up his successful career and began to work with Love All People. Along with the career went the money, the credit cards, and the luxury cars. All that was left was the home, and the motor home, where the girls stayed. If they lost that, the girls would have no place to stay. We needed $1,800.00. Roger McDuff, a friend of Rev. Minner’s, invited him to a pastor’s convention in Anaheim, California. The Holy Spirit told Rev. Minner to go.

Rev. Minner’s family told him he was crazy to go all the way to California; 1. We have no money to pay these bills. 2. We have no food money. 3. We have no gas money, how are you going to get there? To which he replied: “ I have to go, God told me to go.” So the group gathered together to pray before departing. Just then a knock at the door. Rev. Minner went to look through the peep hole and said; “ Oh no, not another handout.” But he opened the door, and there stood Harmony, a young veteran who usually came over for coffee and conversation. But not this time. He said he couldn’t stay, and that the Lord told him to give Love All People $125.00. So he did and then left. Be careful how you treat strangers, you never know when you might be entertaining angels. With that money, we gassed up our vehicles, and left for Anaheim.

Love All People was expecting to receive a love offering for our first major appearance. Looking at the size of the crowd, we just knew we would have enough to catch up on all our bills! Then we got the word there would be no love offering that night. How are we going to pay for the motor home? How are we going to get home? Just before benediction, Dick Mills called Love All People to the podium so the people could stretch forth their hands and pray for us. As they were praying, people were standing in the aisles and placing money into the kids hands, who began shoveling the money into their pockets. There was over $1,800.00 received that night.

Rev. Cleveland invited us to the G.M.W.A. National Convention which was held in Miami, that year. Once again, the Holy Spirit told Pastor Minner to go. When Pastor Minner told his Board of Directors that L.A.P. was going to Miami with as little money as we had, the board was flabbergasted. Two members actually quit saying: “We can’t work with a fool like you!!” But Pastor Minner was obedient!!! So we left Vegas and headed for Miami. Everything was fine until we came to Birmingham, Alabama. This was where L.A.P. started complaining: “Rev., we’re hungry!” After filling up the bus, we had only $100.00 left. Pastor Minner then said, you better start praying! So we got down on our knees, in the bus, and prayed. When we got up, we saw a sign in the distance. It read: Po’ Folks. That’s us! 40 of us piled off the bus and into the restaurant. After Pastor Minner explained our situation to the manager, they offered us one piece of chicken, two vegetables, and a glass of iced tea. We then asked if we could sing our grace. The manager reluctantly agreed. Then, at the table, we held hands and sang; “Thank You Lord,” as was our custom. As a result, people began coming over to our table to ask what we were all about. After we explained our ministry and the purpose of our trip, some customers went to the manager and said: “We want to hear these kids sing.” And so we did right there in Po’ Folks. Then the people brought money to our table, and the manager brought out plates of chicken, and vegetables and threw in rolls and dessert. Then he tore up the bill and said: It’s on the house! We were now in Miami for the G.M.W.A. National Convention. We were once again broke. That night, when we got up to sing, Rev. Cleveland stood up and addressed the convention. He said that tonight, he was breaking the 14 year tradition of never receiving an offering for a group. He then received an offering for us of over $1,900.00. This paid our hotel bill, and for all our meals in Miami! As we set out to return home, we found that we had just $8.00 left. So John Lerner treated us to ice cream. Prentice would finish the story this way. John, who was still having doubts about our finances, said: “We need to stop and sing somewhere to get some money!” And that’s exactly what we did. We stopped at a church, which I believe was a ’Walk-in’. During our performance, the church took up an offering for us. Rick Lane, our lead singer, said to Prentice: “I know it’s a thousand.” The preacher announced that the offering was $700.00. “Wait a minute,” a member said as they were coming forward. Here’s another $300.00. John fell to his knees and wept, saying: “I have seen God at work on this trip. I have seen the glory of the Lord.” This was another life changing experience! Wisdom is shown to be right by what results from it. Matthew chapter 11.

It was spring of 1986. We were just finishing a tour of schools in Washington state sponsored by M.A.D.D. It was during this time that the Holy Spirit instructed Pastor Minner to take L.A.P. and begin to travel all over the country wherever he was sent. But Rick wanted to be an entertainer, just like Prentice. Since Vegas was the entertainment capital of the world, well, you get the idea. What about Charles, who’s heart’s desire was to get his music published and heard. And most important of all, was his wife Pam, who had a good job here in Las Vegas. So Prentice decided to stay in Vegas. Things went well until Fall. L.A.P. would have a morning meeting every day without fail. The purpose was devotion, a time of teaching, and daily schedule. Only this morning was different. Prentice came to the meeting more somber than we’d ever seen him. He began to weep as he announced that there was going to be a tragedy, and that it would take place in our own front yard! The Holy Spirit revealed, however, that everything would be O.K. Less than two weeks later, Rick Lane, and Jay Forde, were shot in our front yard. The doctor who removed their bullets called the incident “Miraculous,” saying: “The bullets were hollow points and ordinarily open up on impact! But these bullets did not open!!”

 

A few days later, in the still of the night, the Holy Spirit woke Prentice up and warned him to flee to California for safety. With only $250.00, no place to sing, no place to stay, Prentice told everyone to pack up, we were leaving for California. This time he was obedient! When we arrived in L.A., we were invited to sing a song or two, at a Minister’s Alliance meeting which hosted ministers from all over California. When Pastor Minner mentioned that we needed a place to stay, one lady offered us the use of her home. John called Pastor Minner and told him that we needed $7,000.00 to keep our homes by the following Saturday afternoon. During devotion and announcements, Pastor Minner suddenly stopped. Then he began to name off seven girls in the group and instructed them to isolate themselves from the rest of the group for three hours and pray for our miracle. One of the girls’ mother, whom he was supposed to call was visiting, so Pastor Minner substituted another girl in her place. Shauna went to Pastor Minner and said: “Prentice, why didn’t you call my name? I am supposed to be one of the seven in the prayer group, aren’t I? This is far more important than visiting!”

Three hours later, the girls came out singing a victory song. They didn’t know how the Lord was going to work it out but they were sure that something really great was about to happen! That’s faith! Between Wednesday and the following Sunday, we received eight invitations to sing at various churches in that area. We received over $7,800.00 in one day with enough time to get the money back to John for our homes! HALLELUJAH

 

 

 

 Make the kingdom of God your primary concern!

Author: Pat Sue    

 It is written in the book of Daniel: Your Majesty, you are the head of gold. After your kingdom has come to an end, another great kingdom, inferior to yours, will rise to take your place. After that kingdom has fallen, yet a third great kingdom will rise to rule the world. Following that kingdom, there will be a fourth great kingdom as strong as iron. That kingdom will smash and crush all previous empires. During the reigns of those kings, the God of heaven will set up a kingdom that will never be destroyed. No one will ever conquer it! It will shatter all these kingdoms into nothingness, but it will stand forever!

In the kingdom, you will show me the way of life. In the kingdom, the holy spirit leads the humble in what is right, teaching them his way. Anyone who does the will of my father in heaven is my brother, and sister, and mother. Therefore, go and make disciples of all the nations… Love each other, just as I have loved you, you should love each other. Your love for one another will prove to the world that you are my disciples. Teach these new disciples to obey all the commands I have given you.

If I forgive those who sin against me, my heavenly father will forgive me. Give as freely as you have received. Go and announce to them that the kingdom of heaven is near. Don’t take any money with you. Don’t carry a travelers bag with an extra coat and sandals or even a walking stick. Don’t hesitate to accept hospitality because those who work deserve to be fed. Whenever you enter a city or village, search for a worthy man and stay in his home until you leave for the next town. When you are invited into someone’s home give it your blessing…Does this way of life really work?

 

In 2010, the holy spirit told me to write about that which I really loved.

Love All People. I am an eyewitness to everything I am about to write about! As it is written in the book of Psalms: “ I will tell of all the marvelous things you have done. “ And it is my honor to do so. Let me start by telling you about my friend, someone I knew to be God’s servant. Rev. Minner was a world class entertainer whom God called out of show business to tell the children he loved them. The question was what kids? Rev. Minner continued to entertain audiences until he received a call from a friend that her daughter was hanging around with gang bangers, drug users, and abusers. She asked if he would go down and speak to these kids. Then the Spirit said to Rev. Minner; “Those are the kids. Go and tell them I love them.” And you know he got the message right because one day in a meeting, one of the kids said:

“You keep talking about love and loving people, why not call the group Love All People?”  And so we came to be.

Four or five of the kids Rev. Minner went to speak to started coming over for Bar- B-Ques, and different get togethers they had weekly. They came over high, drunk, or some didn’t even know why they were there. They just followed their friends! Finally, Rev. Minner said to himself: “This ain’t working! They are leaving here and going back to the same environment they came from exactly the same as before!” So Rev. Minner told these kids: “If you really want to change and do something with your life, I’ll help you get out of where you are, and help you find some direction.“ When they left, he really didn’t expect anything to come of it. But, a few days later, Rev. Minner looked out of his front window, and a truck full of 4 or 5 kids came up to the front door and said; “You said if we were serious about changing our lives, you’d help us! Well, were here.” So he moved the boys into his home, the girls moved into the motor home. They became his family. And when he was performing, he would bring them up on stage with him. He did give them a new direction and a new hope. Fed them, clothed them, taught them in his home, which later became “ The Love All People Music Academy .” He was making disciples which led to “ The Love All People Music Ministry!

It is written in Matthew chapter 10: Go and announce to them that the kingdom of heaven is near. Don’t take any money with you. Don’t carry a travelers bag with an extra coat and sandals or even a walking stick. It is written in Matthew chapter 6: Don’t worry about everyday life; food, drink, or clothes. My heavenly father already knows all my needs, and he will give me all I need from day to day, if I live for him and make the kingdom of God my primary concern. It is written in John chapter 10: “ My sheep listen to my voice; I know them, and they follow me!” It is written in Matthew chapter 7: Therefore, Anyone who listens to my teachings and obeys me is wise. It is also written in Matthew chapter 11: “Wisdom is shown to be right by what results from it.”

 

Rev Minner gave up his successful career and began to work with Love All People. Along with the career went the money, the credit cards, and the luxury cars. All that was left was the home, and the motor home, where the girls stayed. If they lost that, the girls would have no place to stay. We needed $1,800.00. Roger McDuff, a friend of Rev. Minner’s, invited him to a pastor’s convention in Anaheim, California. The Holy Spirit told Rev. Minner to go.

 

Rev. Minner’s family told him he was crazy to go all the way to California; 1. We have no money to pay these bills. 2. We have no food money. 3. We have no gas money, how are you going to get there? To which he replied: “ I have to go, God told me to go. “ So the group gathered together to pray before departing. Just then a knock at the door. Rev. Minner went to look through the peep hole and said; “ Oh no, not another handout. “ But, he opened the door, and there stood Harmony, a young veteran who usually came over for coffee and conversation. But, not this time. He said he couldn’t stay, and that the Lord told him to give Love All People $125.00. So he did and then left. Be careful how you treat strangers, you never know when you might be entertaining angels. With that money, we gassed up our vehicles, and left for Anaheim.

 

Love All People was expecting to receive a love offering for our first major appearance. Looking at the size of the crowd, we just knew we would have enough to catch up on all our bills! Then we got the word there would be no love offering that night. How are we going to pay for the motor home? How are we going to get home? Just before benediction, Dick Mills called Love All People to the podium so the people could stretch forth their hands and pray for us. As they were praying, people were standing in the aisles and placing money into the kids hands, who began shoveling the money into their pockets. There was over $1,800.00 received that night.

“ It is written in Jeremiah chapter 29: I know the plans I have for you,” says the Lord. “They are plans for good and not for disaster, to give you a future and a hope!” It is written in Psalms chapter 32: “I will guide you along the best pathway for your life. I will advise you and watch over you.” It is written in Matthew chapter 11: “Wisdom is shown to be right by what results from it.”

 

The year was 1986, and Rev. James Cleveland, who was the founder of the Gospel Music Workshop of America (G.M.W.A.), was in town for the annual board meeting. We had such a desire to appear at the board meeting, but we couldn’t even afford the entry fees. The Holy Spirit told Rev. Minner: “You will appear.” Pastor Minner said the Holy Spirit told him to call the chapter president to see if the kids could come. “I’m glad you called” he said. “We need some help. If you will have some of your members meet guests at the airport, and take them to their hotels, we will waive the entry fee.” We did as requested. We were told that we could sing at the opening of the program. Rev. Cleveland never arrived at the beginning of programs, so chances were he wouldn’t hear us. But Pastor Minner said the Holy Spirit said, “He will hear you.”

 

At the last minute, the program was changed. The opening act was asked to perform another selection. As L.A.P. took the stage, in walked Rev. James Cleveland. L.A.P. sang our song: “He’s forgiven me.” After we finished, Rev. Cleveland interrupted the program and said: “I’ve never been so impressed… I like what this group has to say. Forgiveness is what the gospel is all about, and these kids are a living testimony to God’s goodness!”

 

When Pastor Minner obeyed the Holy Spirit’s instructions, and trusted Him alone to bring it to pass, He did!!! As I stated before, I am an eyewitness to everything I am about to write about! It is written in Matthew chapter 24: The good news about the kingdom will be preached throughout the whole world as a witness, and then the end will come!!!

The peace of mind and heart

author: Pat Sue

 

“Come to me, all of you who are weary and carry heavy burdens, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you. Let me teach you, because I am humble and gentle, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke fits perfectly, and the burden I give you is light.” – Matthew chapter 11. “I am leaving you with a gift; peace of mind and heart. And the peace I give is a gift the world cannot give, so don’t be troubled or afraid.” -John chapter 14. “For anyone who listens to my teachings and obeys me is wise!” -Matthew chapter 7. “Don’t let your hearts be troubled. Trust in God, and trust also in me.” -John chapter 14. It is written of the kingdom in Matthew chapter 6: “So don’t worry about everyday life, food, drink, or clothes. My heavenly father already knows all my needs, and he will give me all I need from day to day if I live for him and make the kingdom of God my primary concern. So don’t worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will bring it’s own worries, today’s trouble is enough for today.” So what am I supposed to do with the rest of my life? It is written of the kingdom in Matthew chapter 10: “Go and announce to them that the kingdom of heaven is near. Don’t take any money with you. Don’t carry a traveler’s bag with an extra coat and sandals or even a walking stick. Don’t hesitate to accept hospitality because those who work deserve to be fed.”

 

In February 2009, I received my final notice from the Clark County Treasurer that unless I brought in to the office a cashiers’ check in the amount of $4,984.64 by March 20th, my home would be auctioned off to pay past due property taxes. I had been doing monthly concerts for three years trying to do everything I could think of just to keep my head above water, and I failed. It was at this time one of my close friends told me to give him a list of all my friends and he would contact them and tell them of my situation. But, he said: “Because of the economy, times are tough, we’ll just have to see!” So I got down on my knees and began to cry out to God in desperation. I said: “I have done everything I know how to do! They’re going to take my home away from me. I ain’t gonna live like no bum! If this is all I got to look forward to you can cash my chips in and take me home. I don’t know how to fix this! Help me!” After this I went out for a while and frantically began to sob. I finally stopped crying when I said: “I saw you do it for  Prentice, so do it for me. I trust you God!” Then I got my first divine instruction. The Holy Spirit told me to play to him for his enjoyment! That’s it? That’s all?!!! I need $5,000.00. That don’t fix my problem! But the Holy Spirit reminded me that I said: “I don’t know how to fix this,” and that I asked him for help. Now obey, and trust me! So from that day on until March 20th, that is exactly what I did. At the end of each day, I said with a great amount of hope: “I trust you Lord.” It was now March 19th, and I got a call from my friend John. He said: “I’m picking you up at 4:30P.M., be ready.” “What for?”, I said. “We gotta go to the bank,” he said. We arrived at my branch at 4:55P.M. All the employees knew me by first name. So Sam, the bank supervisor says: “Pat, what can I do for you?” At Sam’s desk, John pulls out $400.00. Then John pulls out a bundle of checks, hands them to me and says sign them. After I had signed them all, Sam added everything up. Sam looked at us and said: “This is for the house isn’t it?” I said: “Yup.” He said: “Pat, I’m gonna do you a favor, I’m gonna put these checks right through. I’m gonna waive the mandatory waiting period to process these checks.” This was the first part of the miracle. The second part came when he said: “Now, let me go cut you a cashier’s check in the amount of $4,984.64.” I began to experience peace, when I obeyed his instruction and trusted him alone to bring it to pass, saw him do it, and then repeated the process, continuously!!

 

On April 2nd 2012, I received a notification from the Clark County Treasurer’s office that I had until June 7th, 5:00 P.M., 2012, to pay in full $3,500.00 or my property would be auctioned off to pay property taxes! I had no money. I should have lost my mind! I sat down and wept bitterly for 10 minutes, then I stopped crying. The song that Rev. Minner sang so many times, began to cross my mind: “I trust in God.”                                          I trust in God for instruction; what do you want me to do today?

I trust in God for direction for my future; What is my field of service for you? What is my destiny? The instruction that I obey today, paves the way for the path I am to walk on later!

I trust in God for provision to accomplish every instruction I am given.

I trust in God for protection every day of my life.

In the kingdom, those who know your name, trust in you. In the kingdom, the helpless put their trust in you. In the kingdom, the needy will not be ignored forever, when they obey your instruction, and trust you alone to bring it to pass. In the kingdom, the hopes of the poor will not always be crushed, when they obey your instruction, and trust you alone to bring it to pass. In the kingdom, no one who trusts in you will ever be disgraced. And that is why; In the kingdom, I trust in you my God. I trust in your unfailing love. My Heavenly Father already knows all my needs, and he will give me all I need from day to day, if I live for him and make the kingdom of God my primary concern. People began asking me: “Pat, how are you doing?” I replied: “Just fine.” Well, June 7th came and passed with no $3,500.00 so I said O.K. Lord, now what do I do? I lost the house. Where do I go from here? Go into all the world and tell the world about my unforgettable deeds. Wait a minute Lord, I have no transportation; no car, no truck, no motorcycle. How am I supposed to get there? Matthew Chapter 10: Go and announce to them, that the kingdom of heaven is near. Don’t take any money with you. Don’t carry a traveler’s bag with an extra coat and sandals or even a walking stick. Don’t hesitate to accept hospitality, because those who work deserve to be fed. Whenever you enter a city or village, search for a worthy man and stay in his home until you leave for the next town. When you are invited into someone’s home, give it your blessing. So I began to call friends from all over the country and told them I was coming to their city soon, to which they replied: “Come on Pat, we’ll be glad to have you!” On June 12th 2012, two of my Sue family of friends came to see me and said: “What’s wrong Pat?” So I showed them the notice from the Clark County Treasurer. So they grabbed me up and said: “Let’s go.” We went to the County Treasurer’s office and I said: “It’s already too late,” but we went anyway. The receptionist told us it was in the process of being deeded, but full payment would reverse the process. And that is exactly what happened. My house was returned to me!

 

A few weeks ago, I heard this story as related by Father Barry Vaughn of Christ Church Episcopal: Several years ago, my friend Rabbi Jonathan Miller and his son Aaron, now a Rabbi himself, visited a history class I was teaching. One of my students asked a question that she had always wanted to ask a Jew: “Why don’t you believe in Jesus?” …Jonathan calmly turned to his son and said: “Aaron, would you like to answer that question?” Aaron just as calmly replied: “Jews believe that when the Messiah comes, he or she will bring in an age of peace, and that hasn’t happened yet.” The Hebrew word shalom that we translate as “peace” means so much more than an absence of conflict or violence. Shalom is a positive word. It means well- being, plenty, prosperity, completeness. It is written of the kingdom in Matthew chapter 6: So don’t worry about everyday life; food, drink, or clothes. My heavenly father already knows all my needs, and he will give me all I need from day to day, if I live for him, and make the kingdom of God my primary concern. So don’t worry about tomorrow for tomorrow will bring it’s own worries, today’s trouble is enough for today.

 

When I obeyed his instruction and trusted him alone to bring it to pass, saw him do it, and then repeated the process continuously, this is what I learned; In the kingdom, Trusting God’s word to come to pass produces a God dependency. In the kingdom, total God dependency produces peace!!!
