(Below is an excerpt from Pastor’s book, “How to Find Life in Dead Situations”)<\/p>\n
When you face a dead situation be sure to get a Word from God. As believers, some people reach out to try to find some different way of looking at their problem. There is nothing wrong with a positive outlook in tough times. However, there is nothing stronger than receiving a Word from God that everything is going to be all right and God is going to see you through.<\/p>\n
When my church began in 1964, God gave me Isaiah 41:10, \u201cFear thou not; for I am with thee: be not dismayed; for I am thy God: I will strengthen thee; yea, I will help thee; yea, I will uphold thee with the right hand of my righteousness.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n I know one thing; a Word from God in your spirit is stronger than any circumstance you face. We have had glorious years and challenging years, but the thing that sustained me was that I have known in my spirit that God\u2019s promises are sure. It is not the word of man but the Word of the living God. Our opinion is not changed by the news, because we have a sure Word from God.<\/p>\n In order to find life in a dead situation you must refuse to see anything as dead that God wants to bring back to life. Now there are some things you need to let stay good and dead! I mean, there are relationships that do not need to be part of your life. Just leave them alone. If God has broken you out of a bad association, just leave it in the hands of God. Forgive them and go on down the road. Do not try to revive what God has dissolved.<\/p>\n
