Introduction
This book is a true story, dedicated to all evangelists past and present, chosen and ordained to proclaim the Word of God. These are only a few of the experiences that I had obeying God as an evangelist, prophet and apostle. There are different molds, tests and trials for each office. In each office there is a different pressure and situations in which one is confronted, to become a true servant of God. Jesus said that He would never leave us or forsake us. While God may lead us into the wilderness to be tempted of the devil, He also promises to supply all our needs, according to His riches in Glory by Christ Jesus! Jesus never tells us what we will go through for our needs to be met, but He does promise to meet our needs. I hope and pray you will be encouraged an enlightened through this book.
Go Down Moses
This story begins on November 4, 1948 when Moses Mason Sr. took his wife Carrie, to Herrick Memorial Hospital in Berkeley, California to have their baby.
The couple relocated from Mississippi to California because they felt they could live a better life there. They bought a new home in Parchester Village, not far from San Pablo and joined a storefront church named Greater El Bethel Baptist. This church was located in a small plaza.
I remember so vividly my mother Carrie wrapping dimes, nickels and some pennies in a handkerchief, tying it in a knot, and telling me, This is NOT for candy. It is for Sunday school
. But, of course, every now and then, I would sneak to Chins store in the plaza to make a purchase. Mr. Chin would always watch closely to see if any of the children were stealing candy. But we knew better than to try. I knew my Dad would make me feel the power
of a nice country whipping if I were to even think about stealing any candy.
