Jerry, thank you so much for posting this. Life has been crushing me lately (wife is gone, you guys have prayed for her) and I have been so depressed I can barely pray at all myself. But this brought everything into perspective, and actually has given me hope. God Bless you and your work.....

I think that varying cultures play a great role in interpretation too. I can assure you that no one was worshipping the lamb Alfalpha (however u spell it's name), or the actor on the cross, therefore neither were graven images. Jerry was using this to illustatrate the importance of what Jesus did for us. I think that when you heard or read that Jerry kneeled at the feet of the man on the cross you took offense. I am sorry that offended you. I don't know how to explain that except to say that it was only imagery, all an act. Jerry's intent was not to make people worship the actor, only the man he portrayed. I had this discussion earlier with someone who asked how this was different than the Catholics believing the Pope represented Jesus here on earth. It is different because this actor and the people seeing him KNEW he was not the Christ. And about the lamb, people in other countries would see nothing wrong with slaughtering a lamb...people here in this country would rather save an animal than a person, I know it sounds crazy but that is the truth. The lamb was a dramatic effort to get people's attention and obviously it worked. About invading Heaven...no one wants to invade as in starting a war or taking over. When Jerry or anyone else hear says that it means in prayer. All of our prayers can be heard in Heaven and we want so many people praying to God that it sounds like a strong multitude of warriors fighting to get something done. I hope this helps even just a little. God bless you!

His name is Wonderful…
He’s the Great Shepherd, the Rock of all ages. Almighty God is He!



Jerry, I have been so touched by God this Resurrection Sunday. We are now in our third week of revival in our hearts and the hearts of the teens that we minister to. This Sunday as we celebrated the rising from the dead of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ we again had 15 kids with us.
We took them to the Morning service in Vancouver, Washington. We fed them in our home and then took them to Rivers of Life where Dan Nolan was once again ministering in the evening service. Our kids were so filled up with the Fire of God. We drove over 150 miles in shuttling these dear ones to and from these services this weekend. God is pouring out His Spirit upon all flesh. We are getting our cups filled to overflowing with the Love of God only to pour it out once again upon those who need God’s Love.

Joel 2:28 "And it shall come to pass afterward That I will pour out My Spirit on all flesh; Your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, Your old men shall dream dreams, Your young men shall see visions. And also on my menservants and maidservants I will pour out My Spirit in those days."

My son Andrew has recently turned 16. He has a friend that has been challenging him in his faith for some time over the coarse of a year. Her name is Michelle. She believed in a "higher power" and has even looked into witchcraft. God sent her into our lives to stir us up in our faith. Our wood was wet and we had lost the fire that once was burning within our hearts. We started to once again walk in
the calling that God has for us in working with teens. We started to keep the commandment of Love towards God and man (Mark 12:30-31). Andrew had his birthday party two weeks ago. We had 18 kids in our home. We took opportunity to share the love of God with them and to tell them all about how deep the love of Jesus was in us for them, to tell them that the depths of God’s love could not be measured towards them. A girl named Nikki started to weep and cry out. She has been saved for some time now and is growing in the faith. Her parents have been on the verge of a divorce and there has been in the past a lot of strife in her home. A teen named Fred started to prophesy over her not yet being saved and for the first time ever picking up a Bible he read the scriptures starting with Hebrews 11:1. Her tears subsided, and then Cheryl and three girls went upstairs to our bedroom to pray and to worship. There was a knock on the door, and it was Fred again. Now Fred was someone we knew was very hard headed. Had in the past no interest in the things of God and has a mother who practices Buddhism. He started to raise his hands in praise and worship. The anointing was so strong in the room. It was at this point that I came into the room. Cheryl said that Fred was ready. I took him to a quiet place and asked him what was going on in his heart. In tears he told me that his own parents just recently were about to divorce. He cried out to God and said "God if You are real, please keep my family together". His family remained together in love. He shared with me how he has then been looking in to other religions and now he knows that Christianity is real. I asked him if he understood why Jesus came and what he did for us, sharing with him the scriptures from Genesis to John. He now having the understanding to believe then prayed with me to receive Jesus into his heart. Praise the LORD! We took many teens to church the next day following the party (which was an overnighter).

Two weekends ago we had many teens over again for an overnighter. We shared with them the Love of God once more fed them and took them to church the next day. There was once again an altar call after the service Fred went forward to receive more confidence in the things that he is now walking in regarding his salvation. I was sure that Michelle would go up but she just sat in her chair. The service was over and she turned around, I looked he straight in the eyes and I asked her what it will take for her to know how much God loves her. When will she decide to follow after Jesus? I said that He loves her and will wait as long as it takes. I said that we love her and will wait until the time is right. She has been faithfully coming to church with us now for over a month. Michelle’s parents were having a Sader (sp?) that night and she needed to go home to participate. We all planned to go to a Dan Nolan meeting that night. Russell, you know who that is, he prayed for healing in your back once. Michelle was able to go with us following the Sader. Dan was ministering in the gifts of healing, and in words of knowledge Sunday evening the 20th. The time came when Dan ministered to all those who would go up for prayer. Michelle and my son Andrew together went up as well as all of the others with us. Dan layed hands upon each and Michelle was next. She was the last one on the ground as everyone else was able to get up. My kids and I were praying silently around her and not touching her as Jesus was doing a work inside. Then two spirit filled ladies came to minister to her in the Love of God and she was delivered from a spirit of rejection. I watched her face as this battle in her spirit was going on, I saw when the peace of God prevailed. She prayed with one of the ladies to receive Jesus at once and there were some major tears, and joyful shouts coming from us all.

I am so hungry to see the lost come to Jesus! I am so thirsty to see families Restored! The broken hearted to be healed! I long for the teens to take back the schools for Jesus! I was driving home last night around 8:30 PM and I saw in the spirit myself going into my home and touching my 13 year old daughter Rachel (my little lightning rod) to give her some of the anointing that was in me. Upon arrival I opened the door to enter the house to find the lights dimmed and a circle of eight kids in the front room with Cheryl being still and in prayer as
Cheryl was wrapping up a time of worship with them. I said to Rachel, "come here Rachel I have something for you". As I reached out to touch her she said that the anointing was strong on me and she started to react to it on her body. This anointing went around the room. Joy, laughter, tears, prayers of intercession for other teens and their families. We got so filled up that Cheryl and I had a
difficult time speaking clearly. Cheryl was even drunk in the spirit. It did not end up staying there as we prayed with purpose and in the Holy Spirit. These anointed prayer times with teens in our home are now starting to occur with regularity. God is pouring out His Spirit as in Joel 2:28 like never before in our home. I am so excited about what is breaking forth. I have a creek behind my home about 100 feet away and probably 30 feet below. There are brambles and overgrowth of blackberry bushes in the way. There is so much potential for the
beauty of that small valley to be revealed if it was all cleared up. A month ago I took many of the little kids in the neighborhood with me. I asked them if they wanted to go on an adventure. They were overjoyed at the prospect. We had picks, shovels, loppers, ropes, & saws. I wanted to cut a path to the creek below but there were thorns in the way of us. Were talking 6 foot tall and 25 feet deep. I cut my arms and legs up so much that day. We were determined to get to the water. I want these kids to taste and see that the Lord is good. I want to take them to the Living Water that flows from the heart of God. They are thirsty like never before. I want to give them the Source of all goodness. I want them filled so that they can fill others. There was a young teen watching from the sidelines that is lame in his legs. He has to wear braces on his legs and feet. His hearts desire was to play in the water with us. With some assistance he came down there with us. We are praying that God will heal him and his sister who is deaf (They are moving into the house next door). We did get to that creek. The kids were so excited as they played in the water. Today Cheryl tells me there is a work crew clearing out all of the briars and thorns around the creek. Cheryl spoke over that area that it would be cleared up, that bushes would spring up in the place of thorns, now it is becoming a reality. We are speaking now over the field that God has placed us in. Jerry, your ministry has had a part in helping Cheryl and I to know and experience jumping into the water. You planted seeds into our hearts, you loved on us always. Words alone cannot express the gratitude I have towards you and your ministry. I want to thank you for having a part in our lives. Though you are away physically, in the spirit you are very near. I want you to know that you are on my heart and we will be praying God’s richest blessing upon you. Please hold with us up in prayer for our ministry and we will hold you up as well. Jesus return is nearer than when we first believed.


Blessings and Love, Robert Cyders…

Dear Jerry,

The world indeed needs a revival. When I look at my environment, everyday I see changes - decadent changes - and it pains my spirit.

I am with you in the spirit and in prayers... Go for the revival and may the good Lord guide and give you the grace to do His will for His people. Personally, I ave been feeling a little like wet wood with out that feeling of burn fire - of the spirit - and would not mind a little bit of revival too. Alot of things have happened to me and things are still not going the way they should in my life but I thank you from bottom of my heart for that little church story. Even though a miracle has not happened to me yet...lol, and I know it will if I believe, it has given me a new lease in faith and I just pray that the Lord will show Himself strong and mighty in my life again.

So when you pray...pray for me and all on the board too.

God is with you and may the blessings of His death and resurrection never depart from your life and your family's, amen

Dear Pastor Jerry and Jan,

Thank you very much. I can only say it must be god-inspired!

Dear Lord, please keep Jerry and Jan strong in their mission and help them to win over the hearts of their detractors. Bless them Lord for their deeds in saving people and comforting those who are in distress. Lord I pray for myself too that I may have the strength not to contribute in my own life towards the overwhelming evils of the world. Thank you Father. In Jesus name, amen.

Hello Jerry!

Very powerful. Thank you for sharing and so many people in such a short time thinking about Jesus and the cross. How awesome!

God bless you.
Your sister in Christ,
Rockie

Pastor Jerry, I just saw this article and video after posting how I just lost my temper with my children. My life problems at best are so trivial compared to what is really going on. Thank you for reminding me of how lucky I am that I have a savior that loves me so much, he died for me. THank you for also making me realize that what my husband is doing in Iraq means something too. Thank you Pastor Jerry, you have changed my life.
In Christ's Love,
Lori J.
