TRUST HIM - OBEY HIM
I am a Chicago Firefighter and member of New Joy Divine Full Gospel Church, in Chicago, Founded and Pastored by Apostle Aaron L. Royster and Prophetess Mable L. Royster. I am an Ordained Minister facilitating the church’s Men Servants Ministry and publishes the weekly e-mail newsletter
“CONNECTIONS” that has announcements, news, recommendations, articles, and other information helpful to men in their spiritual growth. He is a member of the Trustee Board and plays guitar in the Anointed Voices of Praise Band.
New Joy Divine has been the church home for my wife Linda and I since 1997. Linda served as the president of the Usher Board for a few years and is an ordained minister as well. I am an active Advisor for the Oak Lawn Lighthouse of Aglow International, an interdenominational organization of Christian women in 137 nations around the world.
I have a heart for Men’s Ministry and believes that until men come to a full understanding of their spiritual role in the household, their family’s true potential will never be realized. To that end, I founded “Path Of Life Ministries”, a Web Ministry with articles and links to resources to help put men on the Path Of Life.
Now all of this sounds fine & good now. But where did I come from?
From a "bottom" in 1990, God took me on a journey to learn how to trust and obey Him.
I don't have a "rags to riches" testimony. God did not perform a miracle healing in my body, nor did He speak to me in an audible voice. I can tell you this; God saved my marriage from my infidelity. God delivered me from nearly losing everything as a "functional alcoholic." Two years after a corporate "down-sizing" God spared my family the pain of foreclosure with an "11th hour-59th minute" financial miracle. God moved hearts and minds to finance two vehicles in the midst of bad credit with the finance officers stating that they didn't know why they approved us. God is a good God!
There are many more "acts of a God kind" that I could recite, but, there is a message: God requires only two things from us TRUST HIM and OBEY HIM. That's the simple version, we can play around with the details all we want but, that's my bottom line.
God Bless You!
