The heart is the place where the word should be received and be discerned by the Holy Spirit so that the word can take root when the enemy comes to steal which has been sown into you. If you do not study to show yourself approved unto God then the enemy can come in and steal it from you and it will become ineffective when the world’s problems descend upon you. You have to have the word of God rooted in you so that when the enemy comes against you, you can resist him. The faith of a mustard seed is all that is required in order for God to grow your faith until it becomes mighty and rooted in you. When it becomes a mighty tree with its roots strongly grounded and immovable and the storms of life blow against you, you can stand firm because of the foundation you have in the word of God. The harvest of souls is great so we must guard our heart with all diligence and meditate on the word of God day and night.

By adhering to these truths, I have found that my personal walk with the Lord has been strengthened and my ability to hear what the Holy Spirit has been prompting me to do has as well. I feel that I hear His voice stronger and that my boldness to be a witness for Him has increased greatly.  The provision for me and my family continues to amaze me as I sow into His ministry and believe God for all my needs. The storms of life and the winds of adversity have blown but I find that I can still come back to that place in Christ and be assured that the Lord has my back.

The word of God is truly powerful, sharper than any two edged sword   When your heart is open to hear the word, so you can do what the word says and be obedient, you will truly produce much fruit in your life. I can never get too much of the word and no matter how many times you may hear a particular passage of the Bible, it will always continue to produce fruit if you are open to hearing it again. I am so thankful for the word of truth being taught at the River. When we continue to allow the word to be sown in our hearts, we will keep our hearts pure toward God and man, and we will not allow the little foxes to come in and destroy us. We will know who we are in Christ, we will stand on the promises and continue in faith and have an intimate relationship with the Lord, because the more of the word you read or listen to with hunger, the more of the word you want. It really is health to your bones and food to your flesh. It is real spiritual medicine.  When I am discouraged, when I am happy, when I just want to learn, the word always satisfies.  I would be so lost and so miserable if I did not allow the word to come and be bread for my spirit. The word is there whenever a lie from the enemy comes and it is a mighty weapon against anything I face.

It is a miracle that I am here today at the Bible school; three months ago I was in Huntsville, Alabama. With God Grace I am here today. Since I got here my life has been radically changed. It is one this to read about believing God to provide for my life and it is another thing to have to live it. Three weeks ago I had to quit my job which provided security for me and my children and come to Bible school. I almost did not come because I was too worried about my kids and I though it was impossible for me to do it, but I can truly say it today with God nothing is impossible.

I obey my God and let go of my Job and I surrender my life and my children to God completely. The day I joined the school some people thought I have lost my mind but I did not care much what they think, I care what Lord my God think of me. One week after the Bible school started the Lord gave me a Job which was perfect for the school schedule and more than that He gave me a Job that is

Five dollars more than what I was getting paid an hour in my former Job. I am telling you I said five dollar more an hour Hallelujah, Glory to God. I know now without a doubt the God is my provider and He is always on time. One more thing I was very afraid to pray for people but now not only I cannot wait to see God move, everyone I have prayed within call center and Soul winning time for healing, they received instant healing.

Rodney Howard Browne – It gets better I work at night when I am at work I speak in Tongues all night and I as the Lord be real to me and I believe He is  real person of Jesus, He will feel me with His heavy presence my whole body receive shocks and I will feel Him holding my Hand like a Father leading a Child, I am having a blessing with the Lord in my whole life I knew the God of the Bible but now I know the one who comes to me all the time even during classes. God you are Good my Lord, you are too good to me, Thank you for RBI and thank you for Pastor Rodney and the whole Church Lord…..Devotha M.

Before I came to R.B.I. I did ministry with my family in Canada but I knew I needed the fire of God in my life every day to bring in the harvest.  I tried to go to other Bible schools but they were just either too flaky or there was no fruit.  But this school is my joy!  I can’t thank you enough. I would pay for it a thousand times!  I’m obviously crying right now…..I see the Fruit, the Word and the Fire and Passion of Christ.

In the first week God gave me a revelation of the cross.  He told me that I had no idea what He had done on the cross and the price that He had already paid for my sins, other people’s sins, healings, and miracles.  An overwhelming peace hit me and everything I tried to bring up, like hurts or fears, couldn’t stay.  Instead I felt this total heavy weight of peace.  At the same time I knew God wanted me on the phones so I left the service and went to the phone center.  I was only on the phones a short time but every person that I prayed for said they felt the peace of God come on them.  I was so amazed as I had said nothing to anyone about what had happened to me.

Back in the service that night Pastor Eric was preaching on facing our giants. Actually my giant had been the phones.  I had been afraid and felt inadequate, like I didn’t have enough fire.  God showed me that my problems were like a speck of dust. But he dealt with me in love and peace. The peace was so overwhelming.

In two weeks at Bible school I’ve gotten 34 people saved.  Before coming to Bible school I have only gotten about that many saved over my whole lifetime.  Glory to God!  It wasn’t like a fire, really it was like God was having me focus on what He was focused on; His people. It was like a drive to get souls saved.  I’m surprised at the boldness God is giving me.  Coming to R.B.I. is the best thing that has ever happened to me….Stephanie L.

All I kept telling her was ‘’ Mom I don’t know how GOD is going to do what he’s going to do  but I know he’s going to do it, and he knows Janezzia has to start school. He knows what I need. I don’t have to worry. I’m doing what he tells me to do  and  I’m being obedient.’’ Well on my birthday SEPT. 2, 2011 which was on a Friday after school I was sitting in the sanctuary with my eyes closed talking with GOD. A little bit of worry began to come in so I was just asking him if there was something else he wanted me to do that I had not done I was starting to not understand some things.

Then I heard  pastor David say excuse me I opened my eyes looked at him said hello and he say’s’’ I would like to talk with you for a second, You know we heard that you had a need.  I just started crying. I felt that warm liquid pour all over me again. Like wow! I got blessed with the exact money I needed and Got an apt. 10 minutes from work and from church. All within two days from my move date. GOD rearranged everything else. Now to me the amazing thing is not that GOD gave me the money I needed. But I know without a shadow of a doubt that GOD”S WORD is true! JESUS is alive! I have developed a closer relationship with JESUS. Learning  how  to have an intimate one with him. My faith has been activated. I know that GOD really loves me. But I don’t fully understand how much. But I know I’m going to comprehend very soon I can feel it. Love really does conquer all.

These past three weeks have really changed my life all around.  I know that God is building me up like

building blocks  which I believe started in Mobile, AL and thus continues here but as I thought about the process of rebuilding something new It has to start with removing the old and building on a  new foundation. God is  tearing down the old and starting from the beginning with a more solid,  strong, unbreakable, unmovable, non-waivering foundation built on the word of God inside and out.  I know without a shadow of  a doubt that this is the process I’m going throught right now.  Once God is finished tearing down the old he will start building up the new.

During the first week and a half I for the very first time ever in my life received the spirit of Joy.  It was during the time  Pastor Todd Holmes ministered on the Holy Spirit and then he layed hands on everyone that day.  I the woman that’s very laid back, shy don’t like to cause a sceen, prefer to be in the background and  unseen;  I started laughing uncontrollably and loud.  I was so shocked but I didn’t care it was AWESOME.

The spirit of joy  has changed my pass, present and future because I was a victim of child molestation by family members and when I would think (pass)about that little 7 year old  girl, afraid, hurt, confused, not able to fight back, lonely, I felt worthless, I felt so ugly,sad, unable to express feelings of happiness, sadness or joy but since that day the spirit of joy came in I now can  look at that little girl staring in the mirror and I know longer see her crying but I see her laughing (present).  I see her becoming who God created her to be.  That God loves me and he has a wonderful plan for my life(present and future).

My life is not about me but it is All About HIM for I  put my life in the palm of the Masters Hands. Still a work in Progress.

In 2009 Pastors Eric and Jennifer ministered at a campmeeting where I answered the call of God. When I got prayed for, the presence of God came so strong on me like I had never experienced before. I wept and wept from my guts as I literally felt things lifting off me like birds flying away. That week I was also delivered from a spirit of fear that had tormented me almost my whole life. After those meetings I started watching the Anointing series and revival.com, and God began to set me free in my mind from strongholds and superstitions, and stir a greater hunger in me. I had been searching for the truth and the presence of God and I knew I finally found what I was looking for! The Lord had never been so real to me in my life.

A year later Pastor Rodney held meetings in my area and I felt the Lord telling me to come to Bible school to prepare for what’s coming. Even the very first week of school God touched my life in such an incredible way. Every class felt like I was on God’s operating table as He has been doing a work in my heart and changing me. Right from the very first soul winning day God began to give me boldness to witness, where before I would shrink back. He has also been expanding the love of God in my heart for people more and more. This whole year He has been breaking off layers of fear and condemnation. I’ve experienced the love of God tangibly like I never had before. God has set me free in my mind more and more through the truth of the Word that has been preached in the classes and services. The Lord has also been doing a wonderful work in my family and restoring my relationship with my parents.

There’s so much more I can’t even put adequately into words, I’m so overwhelmed with God’s goodness and so thankful He brought me to RBI……….Victoria D.

I was in Tuesday night’s service and the power of God hit me hard. I was so elated with laughter. I hadn’t laughed hard in a while, so as you can see I feel like I got a second wind of energy to do what God has called me to do and that is to GO and tell the world about Jesus! In the meetings I can see joy returning to God’s people. I can see the power of God moving and changing this nation. When I watched on the video clips and I see the people from around the world share their testimony about how our telecast is touching and changing their life I am even more encouraged. One of my highlight was on Thursday when I served in the Call Center.

I love praying for people and so I was excited about this opportunity. I had back to back calls from hungry men and women of God who were watching the program and wanted the Fire of God in their life. As I prayed with each and every one of them I could feel anointing and power come upon myself and them. The best part of it is when you finished praying and they thank you profusely for praying for them and how they feel the weight come off of them. It is such an honor to serve the Lord and His people. I am very excited about what God is doing and about what is about to take place in the lives of many around the world. -Clover W

It has been a wonderful week of meetings. The way that God was moving freely in the meeting, as the Pastor was speaking the Word of God the power of the Holy Spirit was falling. As I looked around, you could see the ones that he was touching first. Some were crying and some were laughing. One by one Pastor was calling them out to the front as the ushers brought the person out and stood him or her up in front of the Pastor, and all Pastor had to do is to say Fire!

Or Jesus! He spoke with boldness and authority to point people knew that he was being use by the Holy Spirit. He was move back and forth as pass you can feel the strong presences of God it just overwhelms you. He continues on with the massage about the Holy Spirit and the fire. As you seat back in your seat you could hear the laughter spreading likes a wave as he walking back and forth.

The oil of the heavenly Joy was stirring up from within the inside. It felt like as something was rushing out of me. The more the people laugh the more the Lord pour out his new wine upon us. At the close to the end of service Pastor called for a salvation alter call and told them to come up Man! The people that stood up and made their way to the front for the prayer, it brought tear to my eyes as they stood there saying the prayer of salvation. Boy enjoyed it very much. Thank you, Pastor. -Jessie V.

I have been so blessed to participate in the call center, taking the incoming calls of the Great Awakening broadcast. It is wonderful to hear the people asking for the fire of God and wanting to be soul winners. The new soul winners are very excited about how the script actually works. Most of them are in awe of how simple the script is yet seeing great results.

The callers are themselves crying when they tell of reading the script to someone who did accept Jesus and then that person either broke down crying themselves or were so filled with joy that everyone around them could see the change on their face.  I have had callers who have asked for a list of the Soul Saving Stations because they took the script to their Pastor, who said they could use it individually, however the church was not going to participate. Also the Pastors have told them they didn’t want to hear about the fire or the Holy Spirit.

So…..these church members are so on fire for God that they are planning to leave their current church and move to a church on fire for Jesus, one that wins souls and wants the power and presence of the Holy Spirit. Those churches on board with what the Holy Spirit is doing are going to grow and walk in power. Those that don’t………well….  Sounds like a revolution to me!  -Lauren P.
