Just like David thirst for the well of Bethlehem at the gate while it was encamped by the enemy (2 Samuel 23:15-17) I thirst for the river of God while being in the presence of my enemy. “Though the waters therof roar and be troubled, though the mountains shake with the swelling therof.  Selah.  There is a river, the streams whereof make glad the city of God, the holy place of the tabernacles of the most High.  God is in the midst of her; she shall not be moved:  God shall help her, and that right early.” Psalms 46:3-5 KJV “And he shewed me a pure river of water of life, c ..read more

Hi, I’m Beverly Gray a joyful member of the family of God.  God moved me and my family back to Monroe county back in May of this year.  We joined with the members at the Amory Church of God.  Our goal is to win Amory (those who aren’t already won) for Jesus!  I am really loving what God has been doing (at least my spiritual side does) and I know that there is soooooo much more!  It has been a while since He woke me up at 2am this morning.  There have been times a baby has woke me up and I feed that youngun’ and went right back to sleep, after the burp of course ..read more

Matthew 5:13-16 13.  Ye are the salt of the Earth:  but if the salt have lost his savour, wherewith shall it be salted?  it is thenceforth good for nothing, but to be cast out, and to be trodden under foot of men.  14. Ye are the light of the world.  A city that is set on a hill cannot be hid.  15. Neither do men light a candle, and put it under a bushel, but on a candlestick; and it giveth light unto all that are in the house.  16.  Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in Heaven. Salt i ..read more

So, there is this song that used to be my least favorite song.  Not because I didn’t like the words or the beat.  It was a great song, as long as someone else was singing it, or playing it.  Due to high demand, some few years back, I gradually started imputing it into my set list every now and again.  The name of it is Freedom. Now.  This past Sunday when I was praying, and seeking God about the set list for the service, this song came to mind along with other songs about Freedom, so, I made the chord charts, and got the songs ready.  As I arrived at the church ..read more

In Christ, victory is assured; why? Because He has already won it! He has defeated the enemy, as well as death, hell and the grave. He tasted death for every man and disarmed principalities and powers, making a spectical of them, openly, in His triumphant resurrection. Now, as a Christian, we get to pick up where He left off-and He left us in a pretty wonderful place! This is a place in the Spirit, a place of newness of Life, of peace, joy and confidence in His presence; a place of sonship and relationship with God….a place called DONE. Jesus told His disciples to be of good cheer, even in t ..read more

I wonder what Mary was thinking. I wonder, as she watched her son who was miraculously concieved die, was she thinking of the night that the angel visited her and told her that she was carrying the promised Messiah? Did in her mind, she reminisce of when she traveled to see Elizabeth and the moment that she greeted her John the Baptist leaped in Elizabeths womb? Did she think about the night that he was born in a stable, and she swaddled him and laid him in a manager and Wise Men came and brought gifts to them? Did she think about when they traveled to the city and he stayed behind, and was f ..read more

1 Corinthians 12:12-20 12. For as the body is one, and hath many members of that one body, being many, are one body: so also is Christ. 13. For by one Spirit are we all baptized into one body, whether we be Jews or Gentiles, whether we be bond or free; and have been all made to drink into one Spriit. 14. For the body is not one member, but many. 15. If the foot shall say, Because I am not the hand, I am not of the body; is it therefore not of the body? 16. And if the ear shall say, Because I am not the eye, I am not of the body; is it therefore not of the body? 17. If the whole body were an e ..read more

This whole new way of doing church has turned my world upside down!!! It’s taught me a lot too. It’s been a real revelation of who the church is, and the fact that it’s so much more than the building we meet in weekly. It’s who we are!! I’ve learned (as a worship leader) what real worship is. And it not just the songs we sing or the music we play. It’s the lives we live, and we are commissioned. Commissioned to win the lost, and live a life that is Christ like!! I’m sad that so many people are suffering from this sickness, but I am forever grateful for what the Lord has shown me through this ..read more
