A Ministry of Rodney Howard Brown
|
And, that healing touch transformed lives again. This is one need that has not disappeared in the two thousand years since Jesus walked the earth. Today, we practically never see the word "touch" without some reference to scandal, impropriety, or immorality. How did this amazing word get so maligned? Ministry needs our hands. The Gifts of the Holy Spirit are as He will's not as we will - however He will's more than we will. We are called by God to proclaim Jesus Christ to the planet. Why is it that we think this may only be done with our mouths? Rather, God has empowered each part of us for the task. We touch lives not only by telling others about Jesus, but also by showing real love and compassion to them in their need. Our hearts, mouths, and hands must be operating in perfect concert to do the sort of world-changing mission to which we've been called. And, when we join together as a body of disciples, we must touch lives thru the power of prayer. Furthermore, the unified church presents a mighty tool of teaching, discipleship, and fellowship that calls in the lost and provides the saved. Jesus touched lives. As His adherents, the Church - and you - must do similarly Rodney Howard-Browne was born in Port Elizabeth, SA, and grew up in the Eastern Cape and Transkei. His better half, Adonica, was born in Bulawayo, Zimbabwe, and raised in Johannesburg. Rodney gave his heart to the Lord at the age of five and Adonica gave her heart to the Lord at the age of seventeen. They met and married in 1981 and right away went full time together into the traveling ministry. Over the next 6 years they traveled across Southern Africa, including Zimbabwe and Namibia, evangelizing the Gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ. In 1983, they pioneered a church in the Northeastern Cape and pastored there for 2 years. Rodney and Adonica, and their ministry team, under the banner of Revival Ministries Global , travel about 46 weeks of the year, holding weekly meetings in cities across North America and around the world. They also priest a church in Tampa, Florida, The Stream at Tampa Bay, which they founded on December 1, 1996 and which now has 3000 members. In the summer of 2001, the Lord sanctified them with a pretty two-year old building on the main highway that is worth twice what they paid for it! In 1997, they started the River Bible Institute, coaching scholars in the Word and the Spirit, imparting into their hearts both a spirit of evangelism and of revival. They also started an internet version of the Bible Faculty , permitting scholars of every nation, with access to the web, to participate. . About The Author: Sid Roth’s desire is for all people to know Jesus. His God-ordained strategy is to go to the Jew first. He has found that platforming God’s miracles is the best method available for reaching Jewish people with the gospel. That is why he started It’s Supernatural! television over ten years ago. It’s Supernatural! deals with subjects that most shy away from in this seeker-sensitive age. It emphasizes the supernatural viewpoint that the secular networks do not understand. And at the end of each program, Sid tells the viewers how they can have intimacy with God. |
