Brooklyn Chapel

For over 52 years, Brooklyn Teen Challenge has stood as the light and flagship for Teen Challenge around the world. It still stands today in God's power without compromise. What a wonderful time of ministry here in New York City with BTC Founder/President Rev. Don Wilkerson as we ministered to staff and students.
Then, Tuesday night I ministered at LITC and Freedom Chapel International Worship center in Long Island. The new facility is so beautiful. Jimmy and Miriam's daughter, Dominique Jack, led worship and played keyboard. Her singing was beautiful and anointed. God is at work.
Bro Don
On Wednesday Brooklyn Teen Challenge hosted a live internet PRAYER EXPLOSION via SKYPE hook-up as God joined the hearts of our staff and students and Brother Don with over 100 staff and students in Kazakhstan for miracles.
~~~~ I look forward to ministering at the Brooklyn Teen Challenge graduation on Friday. SEE YOU THERE. ~~~~

THE TRICKY THING ABOUT IDOLS
People try everything to find answers, drugs, new job, new wife or family, but never find satisfaction.  After a while they begin to think that nothing works. Perhaps there is something wrong with me. If that does not work, perhaps there's something wrong with the whole world, I'll never be happy. Finally we conclude, no one is happy.

Looking for answers, Jesus becomes kind of a combination of Santa, Easter Bunny , sugar daddy, grandpa and the tooth fairy, all wrapped into one.  "God, give me what I want. Please me, make me happy...meet my needs."

We do not come to God that he should please us. We must we come to God to please him! As I travel I see the gospel becoming a cult of "self improvement." We don't offer a legitimate manifestation of the God of the Word, rather a failed reflection of the God of the world, an "american idol." I do not want to minimize God's love, nor His commitment to us, but in the midst of a "seeker-sensitive" mentality, I must contend for the 'Savior sensitive" reality.

Have you ever been to the one-hour cleaners? Go in and ask them if you can have your shirt back in one hour. See what they do. I messed up my white shirt here in Brooklyn at lunch, so I went in and said, "I need this shirt back in an Hour."
~~~ He gathered the other workers together and they laughed hysterically.
~~~ I challenged them, "I thought you were the one hour cleaners!"
As the clerk wiped tears of glee from his eyes he said, "That's just the name on the door, it's not what we do."
God, deliver us from allowing this to become the testimony of the church. Making promises of love and power which we cannot deliver because we've left the God of the word and replaced Him with a cultural idol.
For many God is a prize we keep in the trophy case. We dust it off and try to get all we can get from Jesus.
The key is living from Jesus not doing for Jesus. That becomes an idol! We cannot survive on human effort. 

I love to see people come to the altar and believe this is a wonderful way to encounter the real God. That is why , rather than begging people to come, I now challenge them,
"Do not come just for a miracle! Come for a relationship." The truth is, when you have the relationship, the miracle takes care of itself. You see, the tricky thing about idols is they promise what they cannot deliver ... More next week

2010
ANSWERED PRAYER. WE ARE PLEASED TO REPORT RESULTS FROM STAN NOLL'S EYE SURGERY.

I went to Hershey Medical Center yesterday and saw my eye surgeon for a post operation visit. She feels my eyesight will be restored and I will be OK. She said it could take months until I have full sight again but she feels my sight is going to be saved.
From emergency surgery to save my eye --  to this wonderful report 2 weeks later. Hallelujah. Thank you for praying.

1) Please pray for Rev. Don Wilkerson as he prepares to minister to the National Minister's conference in Dominican Republic. He leaves on June 2 returning on the 7th. He will be ministering to pastors and helping Pastor Jimmy Jack to lay the groundwork for Teen Challenge and Rock the Block at the Monument in Santiago, Dominican Republic in July.
2) The week of June 9th will be a strategic time for the launch of the Teen Challenge in Liberia. Pray the Lord gives us favor during services and our friend-raising-fundraising banquet. Pray the Lord touches the hearts of students at Teen Challenge Minnesota Teen Challenge. Perhaps the Lord will raise up workers
3) Pray for the logistics as we are processing religious VISAs and Treasury Licenses for the upcoming mission to Camillo Cienfuegos, Cuba.
4) Please pray for Roger and Sharon Holland, Missionaries to Santa Cruz, Bolivia
855 N. Park Rd.  Apt. C103, Wyomissing, PA 19610, Phone  610-301-9990
http://rogerandsharonholland.com. They finally have all the funds to purchase the induction center home!  Many friends that at one time pledged for one reason or another have dropped out.  Pray that the previous pledges come back as soon as possible to get them back to the field.  Their plan is to have the Teen Challenge center up and running by Jan. 2011. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nI0ppHZ1228
6) Please pray for the Upcoming Rock the Block in Santiago, Dominican Republic. Ramón and the team are working out sound, light, and video- vital logistics will be resolved over the next 2 weeks.
7) Pray for workers for the Harvest ...Teen Challenge Centers in 86 countries need staff and we currently have invitations to start Teen Challenge in 43 nations. They are crying out for help. They need the power of God to meet a pressing social need... but we know it has a SPIRITUAL ROOT. We offer SPIRITUAL RESOURCES to meet the need.
MATTHEW 9: 37 Then He said to His disciples, “The harvest is plentiful, but the workers are few.
 38 Therefore beseech the Lord of the harvest to send out workers into His harvest.”
