Testimony Continued :

In 1997 I transferred to Corry Station in Pensacola, Fl for  a Navy school, while there I wanted attend the Brownsville Revival. I am glad I did, it changed my life!

When I first went to the Brownsville Revival, also known as the Pensacola Outpouring, I felt such a heavy guilt about the sinful life that I was leading that as soon as Evangelist Steven Hill started to speak I knew that he was talking to me, Charity James started to sing "Mercy Seat" and I had to run to the alter. I gave everything to Jesus and I felt such a peace and power come through me. I knew that the Lord was calling me to get re-baptized as an act of obedience to God. I did and I cannot begin to describe how my life changed after that. Obedience is better than sacrifice!

After attending the Revival for almost 2 years, I received orders to the USS Kitty Hawk (CV-63) that was being moved to Yokosuka, Japan, from San Diago.  I knew  that I was being called overseas to be a Missionary Evangelist.. Before transferring I asked Rev. Steve Hill, and Rev. Carey Robertson to  pray for me and during this I was told that there is going to be a great outpouring in Japan and I will be a part of it.  I was given 3 words from God, 1) Find the Pentecostal Chaplain on the Kitty Hawk, 2) Find the Men's Ministry on the Kitty Hawk, and 3) Revival is coming and I would be a part of itWell to put a long story short I thought that he missed this because in 10 years in the Navy I had never seen a Pentecostal minister in the Navy, as soon as I got to the ship I met the Chaplin and then I found out that there was a Men's ministry just starting and the other one has just started to happen but they all came true.  God was moving in an awesome and mighty way and I was so humbled and fired up to be being used in this.

While the Kitty Hawk battle group was in the Arabian Gulf doing Operation Southern Watch, God really moved! On the USS Kitty Hawk, there were over 100 souls saved, or who returned to Christ during that deployment. God allowed me my first opportunity to teach and preach on that deployment. It was an awesome experience.

Early in 1999, I started praying, asking where the Lord wanted this ministry to go.  The Lord showed me that the Internet is a wide open ministry, and I am to claim it for Christ!  After about a year of this I felt that God had told me to expand this ministry, so in September 2000, God had me found For This Time Ministries.  This ministry is commissioned for the purpose of evangelizing the lost, helping the hurt and delivering and restoring the spiritually oppressed, and as always, going after "Whosoever will" accept Jesus Christ as Lord.
