We painted all morning yesterday. The whole third floor got two coats of primer. Thanks to Pastor Dan and Bro. Parvis for staying still it was finished! The ladies and girls almost got the finish coat on everything to.

I flew down to Virginia in the afternoon. It was a great joy to preach and charter the new church. The God of Heaven stirred in the meeting. We got out around 10. Pastor Dave and Pastor Wiley also shared a charge.

We fly back this morning and Lord willing should be back by lunch. I will change clothes and be at church all day working. I can't wait till church tonight to see what God is going to do in our midst.

This morning we have no power and were on the generater. Its beautiful and in the fifties. Feels like a fall day.

I worked all morning on the sound booth. I have just a little bit more to do and then it will be done.

I took off in the plane around 11 to go get Mrs. Amy. She had driven with Elisabeth down to CT to drop her off at school. It was a bitter sweet moment. We love her and are so proud of her. The Lord gave Grace and we cried and hugged necks and got in the plane and flew home. We will see her in a few weeks at a conference there. Praise the Lord for having such a good school so close.

In the evening I spent time with the family.

Today I'm working at the church and around the house. I'm also in my study early this morning preparing for tomorrow.

Today is an exciting day because we get to go to church tonight. I can't wait to see what God is going to do in the meeting. Pray that the Power of God will be our portion and the liberty of the Spirit of God will be evident in the meeting tonight.

We got a lot accomplished on yesterday. More sheet rock went up, our two back doors went in, the church crew painted more in the sanctuary and a lot of other things were finished. Please pray for my wife and I. It gets very taxing day in and day out and we need the prayers of God's people.

Today I'm putting up the molding in the church and sheetrocking the sound booth. Others will be touching up some painting. It's going to be a wonderful day. This afternoon I'm studying and maybe find time to a play a few holes of golf.

The other team of painters painted the sanctuary. It's a blessing to see so much getting accomplished.

Today we sheetrock, paint, and clean up everything. We are working feverishly to meet our dead line.

The word I got yesterday on the flooring is that it will be right at 23,000 to finish all of it. Please pray for the needed funds to finish this "great work".

Philippians 4:19

But my God shall supply all your need according to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus.

This is the wonderful promise that was given to the Philippian church after they had taken care of the Apostle Paul. When you love missionaries and do right by God in this area of missions God blesses you.

We as a local church are experiencing that even now. Our church has not been stingy with their money. We as a church are reaching out to around 30 missionaries each month and giving away right at 4,000 dollars a month to missions. We know God is going to meet each and every need.

Right now some pressing needs are......

1) Sheetrock 25,650
2) Paint 5,000
3) Carpet and vinyl 18,000
4) Sprinklers 10,000
5) 110 more chairs for sanctuary 5500 Well Glory we need more chairs
6) Kitchen set up 10,000
7) Etc.......

God knows and He said he would supply! What a mighty God we serve!

Today we work in the insulation a little bit. And then wait on contractors to get finished.

It's exciting to see it all come together.

Oh yeah our service last night was blessed of God. The Lord moved in power and glory on the meeting! We had a shouting time praising the Lord for He alone is worthy. Psalms 34 was a blessing to study!

Psalms 107:31 Oh that men would praise the LORD for his goodness, and for his wonderful works to the children of men!

Can you be counted as one of these men the scripture is speaking about in this text? What a ministry and what a joy to praise the LORD for His goodness. What a great delight to praise the LORD for His wonderful works to each of us. The sweet Psalmist of Israel is looking for someone who will do this. Will he find that someone in you?


My my what a day we had on yesterday. So much was accomplished at the building site. We are going wide open on several fronts and it's so exciting to see things getting finished.

Our sprinklers passed inspection yesterday. Today the sheet rock starts. The insulation is complete. The ceiling in the church is complete. The sound booth will be built today. The screen is moved in front of the pulpit. I could go on and on. I love it!

Today we get to go to church tonight. What a great joy it's going to be! I'm excited about it right now as I type this blog out.

Also tonight we have another missionary with us to Maine. We welcome Chestor Ammons.

Tonight also we will be voting to charter the Blue Stone Independent Baptist Church in Clarksville Va. They are requesting that we be their mother church. It's going to be great!

August 16th 2011 5:57 a.m. "A Great Work"

Greetings in the Powerful and Precious Name of the Lord Jesus Christ

Nehemiah 6:3 And I sent messengers unto them, saying, I am doing a great work, so that I cannot come down: why should the work cease whilst I leave it, and come down to you?

Nehemiah had been commissioned by the God of Heaven to go and build the walls of Jerusalem. All through the process he was tempted on every side to give up what God had called him to do. Here in this text we find an exciting truth that we all need to grasp. The truth is that the work is to great to come down from what God has called us to do.

Brethren, what has God put in your heart to do? Do it with all your might and don't come down and compromise with the enemy. Stay the coarse and you will never regret it.

God has called me to a building ministry. My family has been building churches in Maine since 1996. I can't even imagine how many times the enemy has come to me and said come down and let's talk about this building program. I simply say, the work is to great to come down and talk to you. Why should I stop working and come down and talk with you. May the God of Glory help us all to be faithful and keep building in this day in which we live.

Wow did we get a lot done yesterday. The insulation crew is almost finished. The electric is almost finished in the sanctuary. The ceiling was put back up yesterday in the church. A lot of little things was finished on yesterday. The plumbing made great progress yesterday now headed to the second floor today. It's almost two much to list. What a great day.

Were hoping for the same kind of day today! We will be working like crazy to see us get into this building by September 1st! Well Glory!

Personal Revival
Psalms 51
It’s my desire as a missionary to the Northeast to see the God of Heaven move in power and glory. What I mean is that my prayer is that revival will sweep through every city, town, village, and community. I personally am willing by God’s good grace to do whatever it may take to see this happen. But, if God so wills not to move in revival blessings on a community be assured that there is hope. The answer I believe is personal revival. God is able in a very personal way to bring back to life that which is at the point of death. He’s able to rejuvenate the individual in such an extant that they will be on fire for Him. I’ve heard one preacher of ole say, “God will send the Holy Ghost to give you spiritual CPR if He has to so you don’t die out on Him.” Oh that He would do this for me and for those that are reading this devotional. I really do want to be filled with the Power of the Holy Spirit and experience personal revival each and every day of my life. God knows that I don’t want to be a dead Christian, dried up, with no life. God knows that I don’t want to be part of a church that ends up being a glorified social gathering. “Oh Lord send the power just now, oh Lord send the power just now,” is how the song goes. In our text before us today we see that David experienced this thing called personal revival. He no doubt needed it after all the sin that he found himself committing. You cannot help but notice God working with this man just from a simple reading of this text. In the next few devotionals we will look at some of the components that are a part of personal revival. We will see the things that David wanted through this time in his life. Verse one teaches us he wanted mercy, “Have mercy upon me, O God,.” David knew that if he got justice it wouldn’t be pretty. He had sinned and was begging God for mercy. Mercy is a prerequisite for personal revival. We are simply asking God to have pity and compassion on us. Will you not ask God for the same today? Join with me today as I personally ask God to have mercy on me. May God bless you until tomorrow.

I was blessed of the Lord yesterday to be able to bring all my tools home from the work site and organize them a little. We are nearing a place in the building process of wait and see. We are waiting now on the sprinkler guys to finish there work. Next week on Friday the insulation starts. After then it's the sheetrock. It's exciting to see it all coming together but also it's very nerve racking. "Casting all your care upon Him for He careth for you." Well Glory! Theirs the key.

Today Lord willing I'm going to Jackman to go soul-winning. Pray that God would give us souls and good flying weather!
