    E-Edition July 20, 2010


    Woodruff Church of God
    172 Poole St. Ext., PO Box 275
    Woodruff, SC 29388

    Pastor’s Page
    “There’s Power in prayer if you'll believe, He's standing right there for you to receive;
    for the problems you face, He's all that you need, there’s power in prayer. He's the God that
    can’t fail when friends let you down, so cast all your cares on Him ‘cause I've found; He can
    take the heart ache and turn it around, there’s power in prayer.” Well, that’s the song that has
    been on my mind since the prayer service on Sunday night. WOW! What a time we had! I’m
    convinced that the enemy of our soul has devised an evil scheme against the people of God by
    oppressing them with a “spirit of infirmity”. As I declared Sunday night, “IT’S TIME FOR
    THAT SPIRIT TO GO!” I am believing that the spirit of infirmity was broken and the Holy
    Spirit of God was released to impact and control the lives of His people. DO NO ALLOW THE
    ENEMY TO TAKE AWAY WHAT THE LORD DID FOR YOU SUNDAY NIGHT!!!!! Stand
    your ground and believe the report of the Lord!!!! I am waiting for the testimonies from those of
    you that were touched and ministered to by the Lord. You are made over-comers by the word of
    your testimony…..

    This coming Sunday morning will be the last of the messages


    from the sermon series “LOST”. We’ve talked about how America had “Lost Her Way”, “Lost
    In Sin” “Un-Lost” and this week I’ll be dealing with being “Lost in Him”. Please be in the
    House of God Sunday as I believe we are going to encounter God in a most powerful way. I
    want to be Lost in Him….. How about you?

    Baby/Parent Dedication will be this Sunday morning. As I have mentioned


    before, the act of dedication is more than just a cute thing we do so the baby will have a
    certificate for the baby book and nice pictures. Baby dedication is an act of presenting the baby
    to the Lord with the understanding that the one’s presenting the baby will be responsible for the
    spiritual nurturing and upbringing of the baby. For that to happen, the people bringing the child
    to the Lord need to be believer’s themselves (or at least one of them). I hope you understand.
    This is a spiritual thing…. It has spiritual significance…. As a matter of fact, you are making a
    covenant with the Lord. That, my friends, is very spiritual! Please take spiritual examination of
    yourself and make sure you meet the criteria. If so, we’d love to dedicate your child to the Lord.
    If you would like to have grandparents, etc. to be the spiritual support for the child, that would
    work as well. Once you know that the spiritual side is covered, make sure you’ve given the
    proper information to our secretary (476-2977).

    Sunday is also church membership day. If you would like to join with our church, either by
    transfer or new membership, please call the office and give that information to our church
    secretary (476-2977). Then meet with Pastor Terry at 9:30 Sunday morning in the CLC across
    from the Church. Come in the door marked “Staff” and go straight into the long room. In
    advance, let me say “WELCOME”!!!!!

    Sunday is the deadline to turn in your Christian Education Evaluation Sheets. It is imperative
    that we get those so we know who is returning as teachers and who is not. CAREFULLY and
    PRAYERFULLY consider what you decide to do. Make sure that you are in the absolute will of
    God. Sunday School is a vital ministry of our church in which we teach and instruct form the
    Word of God. It also provides excellent small group opportunities. Should you have a desire to
    teach and you meet the qualifications, please let Jonathan Atkins or Pastor Terry know. You
    must be saved, sanctified and filled with the Holy Ghost with the evidence in speaking with
    tongues, faithful in your support of the church in attendance and a member in good standing,
    faithful in tithes and offerings.

    Next week, the 73rd General Assembly of the Church of God


    will convene in Orlando, Florida. The General Assembly is the official business meeting for our
    denomination and meets every two years. Please pray for our safety as we travel and pray that
    the Lord’s will be done in the selection of leaders and the business that is conducted. I don’t
    have a link address for the live streaming of the services, but it should be found on the Church of
    God website at: www.churchofgod.org. Watch the services on Wednesday, Thursday and
    Friday. Franklin Graham will be preaching on Wednesday, Tim Hill on Thursday and Raymond
    Culpepper on Friday.

    Mark you calendar: August 13th…. STREET GOSPEL SINGING


    Main street will be blocked off and there will be Gospel singing by the following groups:
    “Delivered”, “Kaitlin Hosea”, “The Centurions”, and “The Epps Family”. Bring your lawn
    chairs…. Time is 7:00 PM. Singing is free but a love offering will be received. Let’s all turn out
    and show those who think we will be silent that we will not…. We stand for the gospel of Christ,
    for the Cross of Christ and for the Blood of Christ. Can I count on you to be present? There will
    be a flyer at the end of the bulletin material. Print if off…make copies….distribute it…. Get the
    word out!!!!!!!
    Prayer Focus: Purity of Heart and Motive

    Prayer: “Lord, may our motives be only to please you. May we not seek to make a name for
    ourselves. May we not touch your glory. May nothing be done for vainglory or human praise.
    Stop, we ask, expose those who would preach for personal gain and profit, who would use the
    gospel as means to personal fame and power. Give us humble hearts. Purify our motives.
    Cleanse our hands and our hearts. May even the world praise us as having noble purposes.”

    Daily Prayer Points:


    • MONDAY - Without holiness, no man will see the Lord – in heaven, or on earth (Heb. 12:14).
    Witness demands credibility in our life. God, make me holy.

    • TUESDAY - Pray that all we do all for “His Glory!” That we will join the company of the
    anonymous (II Cor. 4:6, 15).

    • WEDNESDAY - Pray that our motives will be pure – our lifted hands holy (I Tim. 2:8), and our
    hearts unpolluted (Psa. 24:4).

    • THURSDAY - Stop – and ask yourself the hard questions! Is it really well with your soul?
    (Psa. 26:2; Lam. 3:40)

    • FRIDAY – Genuine freedom and liberty in Christ, is the freedom to live guilt free and love
    rich. Practice spiritual liberty today. Love liberally. Laugh. Smile. Let others see the joy of the
    Lord – live only for Him (Phil. 4:4-6).

    Window on the World: According to the World Christian Encyclopedia, from A.D. 33 to 1914,
    24 million Christians died for their faith. Since A.D.1915, an additional 45 million Christians
    have died for their faith. This
    means that more Christians were martyred in the last century than all the previous centuries
    combined.

    Harvest Notes: He is no fool who gives what he cannot keep to gain that which he cannot lose.
    Jim Elliot

    Bible Insights:
    Psalm 24:3-5 - Who may ascend into the hill of the LORD? Or who may stand in His holy place?
    He who has clean hands and a pure heart, Who has not lifted up his soul to an idol, nor sworn
    deceitfully. He shall receive blessing from the LORD, And righteousness from the God of his
    salvation. Psalms 66:18 - If I regard iniquity in my heart, The Lord will not hear.

    Consider This: In Buenos Aires, 550 believers met in a train depot at rush hour. They began
    softly singing “hallelujah!” The atmosphere of the station was dramatically changed. They
    boarded trains and fanned out into the city. They touched 7000 people in one evening. 6736
    wanted prayer.
    Prayer Principle: Quit playing, start praying. Quit feasting, start fasting. Talk less with men,
    talk more with God. Listen less to men, listen to the words of God. Skip travel, start travail.
    Leonard Ravenhill.

    Action Idea:
    Do something good, really special, for at least two people, something that is costly in some way
    – time, resources, pride, money. And do so anonymously. Leave only a note or a clue. Let it be
    done for the glory of God. Choose one person that you know – a family member, a fellow
    Christian, a missionary. Choose another that you do not know in a personal way or with whom
    you have had some disconnect. They may be at odds with you or distant in some way. They may
    be only an acquaintance. Do good to them and for them with no intention of personal gain.

    PRAYER LIST:

    Larry Laster Diane Phillips SCHOOL WILL BEGIN SOON and
