VERY SPECIAL ANNOUNCEMENT:
My Dearest of Friends, It is with humbleness and great pride that I make this announcement. God has seen fit to put in on my heart this the fourth day of January 2014 that James Pitts and I will go forward in this evangelistic ministry together. I confess openly that I have tried others to partner with during the past year or so, but was not surrendered and cleansed enough by the Lord. This very morning God showed me, what I failed to see myself, that James and I were built for each other. We are the same in our desire to use just the Bible and both see the failed condition of the church to do just that. God had to show me that I was putting Jim off to the 'by and by'. He had to ask me if I could NOT believe that He can overcome the distance between us. Jim lives in Georgia and I in Connecticut. He then asked if a partner like Jim was not what I had been praying for all this time. Also, as previously stated, God had put it on my heart toward the end of last year that as Billy Graham faded, God would rise me and others up for a new evangelism. That my year would be 2014 to get this going. And so it is. I looked at the messages that I had created since the beginning of the year, with disbelief, that there was so much fire in them and realized it was God working, not me. For the Men's Breakfast this morning, God had me wear my collar, and confirmed that with my wife's pleasant and encouraging attitude towards it. From there, the men questioned me and then prayed for me. In a sense, they ordained me for the mission. While many are used to big ceremonies for ordinations, the term really means 'to send' out'. In our times, God, confirms as fact, the sending out and other things with "the witness of two or three" others. The three prayers lead by certain men, provided that. I asked God "Why this prayer breakfast?" and He answered "Because their fruit shows participation from other Churches for real" I thought, "The first sending out for Insight Ministries was from a similar breakfast hosted by the Northville Baptist Church. The last one said it was open to others, but it's fruit never showed. I then realized that God had to have me come to this, St. Paul's Church for just that reason. What I envision is a simple ministry that will go on the request of a Church to a town green, fleas market, church lawn etc. and deliver an evangelical and revival message to those who may listen. Unfortunately people today think revival is a big party. It is not. It is repentance first. We will only go inside a Church building etc. when forced to by weather. The ministry already owns an enclosed trailer which has been saved for this day. We will need folding chairs, a PA System, and a pulpit to be housed in this trailer. The tow vehicle will be from my landscaping business. If you know of anyone who can provide these or support for these, kindly have them get in touch as we grown together in 2014. Thank you most humbly and sincerely. Minister Bob Cutting (and soon) Rev. James Pitts. |
