In Memoriam

A beloved sister, went home to be with the Lord this past week. We will miss her, but she left us plenty of memories to cherish. Here is one of her emails to the Faith in Action Fellowship:

Subject: What a Blessing!

Hey Deborah,

My apologies for just getting to this–major Internet problems.Where do I begin? …I’ve been wanting to come for quite some time now and God has answered my prayer.I thank you (and each of the group members) for your faithfulness to prayer.Hold-up, hold-up!!! We interrupt this praise e-mail to bring you a live up to the minute Praise Report! I just rec’d a call from Nneka (my eldest daughter) that they just closed on their new home in Suwanee, GA, Hallelujah!!! Just as Bro Robert said, I’d been under siege to prevent me from coming to meet w/you in prayer. Pain, the kind that brings to you to your knees and you wonder if you’ll survive. The pain was so intense that I had to pray myself to sleep to get a break–then got up and came to prayer (both times). Hallelujah! I thank God for the timeliness of the word He gave Bro Robert for us. God’s word is beautiful for situations. amen. I thank God for showing me myself even when He’s dealing with some else. I thank God for His prophetic word over me, that I’ll do things that I’ve never done before.I thank God for Healing me and for every manifestation of His healing me. Whoa, when Bro Robert laid his hands on meeee, ooo the pain in my body had been intense especially in my back. As he prayed I felt pressure bending me in an arch, but my back pain was decreasing. Having to hold that position as Bro Robert told me was very difficult, it caused tremendous pains to go down my legs, but I held on as long as I could. By the time I sat down the back pain had gone. Hallelujah! I can honestly say that I surprised myself hearing how loudly I prayed. Although I know that I possess the ability to produce the volume, lol, I usually save that kind of intensity for home. I know that it was the Holy Spirit and being on one accord with the group that gave me that prayin’ at home comfort.I thought that I’d wanted to come to the prayer group to offer a sacrifice of prayer, to give of myself and to grow my prayer life, but God is, as He does, blessing me far above that which I could ever think or ask.May God continue to bless this prayer group and make it a blessing in the 100-fold realm! Selah!

Let’s take another hill, in the name of Jesus! Amen.

In His Service,
Cerestine
