DESCRIPTION
DEC NEWSLETTER 2013 PIPGM, INCTRANSCRIPT
I get very excited this time of year! I am thankful all year round for all that God has
done for me, but when we go into the Christmas season right after Thanksgiving, I am
overjoyed because of the “celebration of the birth of Christ.” Just the fact that Jesus
came to earth to die for me is so very special to me and so many others all over the
world. He wrapped Himself up in sinful flesh, was born in a manger and laid in some
hay, which, to me, represents “humility” in the highest form. He did not come to the
earth on chariots of fire, announce Himself and sit on a throne; He came into the
world as a precious baby and lived a human life for over 33 years. During that time,
He made no reputation for Himself, yet we are always looking for ways to pump
ourselves up to the world but, not Jesus. Jesus really displayed through His natural life down here how He wanted us to live on
this earth, but we have gotten so far away from “humility” until it is a “foreign” word.
Jesus is my role model and I love the fact that I can celebrate His birth around the
Christmas season. He humbled himself and died a horrible death, and all He asked us
to do was live a clean, peaceable life and die daily to our flesh... His character and the
way He lived while He was on earth is the best example that we have as Christians.
During this time of year, I want to get the lights out and all the Christmas decorations,
celebrate and think on Him and His supernatural birth; not just His birth, but really
why He came to the earth. Jesus is the reason for the season; so, if you do not have
any money to buy gifts for all your family members, just remember who we are
celebrating. Pull out your old decorations, put up your lights and whatever, celebrate
Jesus and think on what He did at Calvary for you. Make this celebration personal.
Just think on how He has changed your life and who you are now opposed to who
you were. That right there is enough for you to celebrate until this time next year.
Christmas is a celebration of life. Jesus came to this world, brought life to a dying
world, and because He came we now live! So, let’s celebrate Jesus in a special way
this Christmas season.
Our Mission The Mission of

GUEST SPEAKER
Special Third Saturday Evening
Presentation:
The Lord spoke to me in March of 2008 and
told me that He wanted bishops on the prayer
line. I thought to myself, “Wow, that is great
Lord”, but I did not know how I was going to
do it. I went to work and one of our bishops
sent me an email about a website that he was
going to have for another country, and that was
my opening. I stated that was great, told him
what God told me to do, asked him if he would
be one of my guests, and he said yes.
Evangelist Cynthia Green and I contacted some
other bishops, Third Saturday Presentations
began, and we have been doing them every
month. We invite different bishops, pastors,
and evangelists to be speakers for each month.
We have invited other laymen that we are
instructed to invite by the Holy Spirit. This has
been a very successful part of our ministry for
over five years.

Wilderness, as defined in
Webster’s Dictionary, is a “wild
and uncultivated region”.
Wilderness, as it relates to our
lives, is specific areas of weak-
nesses that the Lord is trying to
perfect. It is a place, if we allow
it, to mold us and make us for the
purpose God has intended for our
lives. I am reminded of the children
of Israel; even though they were
disobedient, the Lord still loved them
with an unconditional love. He loves
us just like that, unconditionally.
Although sometimes we have been
disobedient, He still makes a way of
escape to save us.
Disobedience and lack of trust kept
the children of Israel wandering in
the wilderness until that generation
had died out. Only Joshua and Caleb
were left. What should have been an
11- day journey ended up being 40
long years. Murmuring and
complaining also caused them to
wander much too long. Murmuring
does not change the situation, it just
makes your test longer. You become
miserable and if you are not careful,
you will become bitter. Our wilder-
ness experiences should make us
better and not bitter.
Deliverance will come in time,
God’s time.
When the children of Israel were
released from captivity, they did
not leave Egypt empty handed.
God granted them favor and they
left with much wealth. God led
them by way of the wilderness to
save their lives. If He would have
let them go by way of the
Philistines, they would have gone
back to Egypt. We are going
somewhere; every child of God
must keep heaven in view. We
must not let our dry places
obscure our vision of our ultimate
destination. We are going by way
of the wilderness, and there is no
getting around it. Psalm 30:5
declares, “Weeping may endure
for a night but joy cometh in the
morning.”

Testimony of: Minister Dee P. Watson
“. . . and by the word of their testimony; . . .” Revelation 12:11
“6
But this I say, He which soweth sparingly shall reap also
sparingly; and he which soweth bountifully shall reap also
bountifully. 7Every man according as he purposeth in his heart, so let
him give; not grudgingly, or of necessity: for God loveth a cheerful giver.” II Corinthians 9:6-7
I have asked the Lord to manifest the above two verses in my life. Last month, I wanted
thirteen hundred dollars and I prayed to the LORD with a heart of thanksgiving. “I thank you
for Your Word; Your Word says, I can ‘cast all my cares upon you for you care for me’ (I
Peter 5:7). I humble myself under your Mighty Hand, O God. I need thirteen hundred dollars
to purchase a ticket to Qatar. I have three hundred dollars of it now. I only need one thousand
dollars. I don’t know how it will be done, BUT I have confidence in You that You have
already done it for me in the spiritual realm. Lord, You knew before the foundation of this
earth that this would be one of my wants and not a necessity. You are Omniscient. Now I am
asking in Jesus’ Name that You grant me this amount of money (one thousand dollars) in Your
earth realm. Lord, I am standing on Your Word, if I sow bountifully, I shall reap bountifully.
I have sown bountifully into Your Kingdom and into Your servants with a cheerful heart. I
thank You for the bountiful blessings in Jesus’ Name. You said in John 14:1, ‘If ye shall ask
any thing in My Name, I will do it’; and in John 16:23, ‘. . . Whatsoever ye shall ask the Father
in my Name, He will give it you’. Amen.”
That same morning of my prayer, a family member called me and said, “I have already spoken
to the Lord that I am blessing you with an early Christmas gift of thirteen hundred dollars. I
reaped the full amount of thirteen hundred dollars from Jesus the same day. He just blew my
mind. Amen. God hears our prayers and He answers them on time. Hallelujah!!! I will
praise the Lord with my whole heart. The next day, I received in the mail a check for $155.69.
This was a co-payment reimbursed to me from the hospital that I was not expecting. If we are
obedient to the Word of God, He will perform His Word in our life. I thank Him for His Word,
“. . . and he which soweth bountifully shall reap also bountifully.” “Now unto Him that is able
to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think. . .” Ephesians 3:20.
“God Loveth A Cheerful Giver.” Hallelujah!!!

TESTIMONIAL
S
HISTORY Submitted By: Sister Vareda Allen
Oscar Devereaux Micheaux (January 2, 1884 – March 25, 1951) was an
American author, film director and independent producer of more than 44 films. Although
the short-lived Lincoln Motion Picture Company produced some films, he is regarded as the
first major African-American feature filmmaker, the most successful African-American
filmmaker of the first half of the twentieth century and the most prominent producer of race
films. He produced both silent films and "talkies" after the industry changed to incorporate
speaking actors.
Micheaux sought to create films that would counter white portrayals of African Americans,
which tended to emphasize inferior stereotypes. He created complex characters of different
classes, and was never interested in simplicity. His own life experiences were the basis for
much of his work. Growing up in southern Illinois, which had long been influenced by
Southern migrants and culture, he learned about some relationships between African
Americans and whites, and their misunderstandings.
Micheaux died on March 25, 1951 in Charlotte, North Carolina of heart failure. He is buried
in Great Bend Cemetery in Great Bend, Kansas, the home of his youth. His gravestone
reads: "A man ahead of his time".
Legacy and honors:
The Oscar Micheaux Award for excellence was established. The Oscar Micheaux Society at
Duke University continues to honor his work and educate about his legacy. 1987 Micheaux
was recognized with a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. 1989 the Directors Guild of
America honored Micheaux with a Golden Jubilee Special Award. The Producers Guild of
America created an annual award in his name. 1989 the Black Filmmakers Hall of Fame
gave him a posthumous award. Gregory, South Dakota holds an annual Oscar Micheaux
Film Festival. 2002, scholar Molefi Kete Asante included Oscar Micheaux on his list of 100
Greatest African Americans. On June 22, 2010 the U.S. Postal Service issued a 44-cent,
Oscar Micheaux commemorative stamp.

After researching, Vareda Allen found Oscar Devereaux Micheaux to be her ancestor.

Excerpt #5, December, 2013 –
Peace of Mind
“To have peace of mind, keep your
mind on Me” (Journal, 14) “Keep your mind on heavenly things.” (Journal, 16) “Thou will keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on Thee: because he trusteth in Thee.” (Isaiah 26:3 with Philippians 4:7, 8, 9)
-LEADERSHIP-
: Do others look to you for leadership? Do you face a major task or shoulder heavy responsibilities? Do you want to take your leadership skills to a higher level?
When Nehemiah confronted the task of rebuilding Jerusalem's wall, he was heartbroken by the damage he saw and nearly overwhelmed by the task that lay before him. Yet through the application of timeless leadership principles, Nehemiah completed this nearly impossible project, and laid a pattern for success which is just as valid for us today. Charles Swindoll brings his sensible and straight forward style to offer a deeply spiritual approach to the role of leader. Whatever the context, secular or ministerial, he demonstrates how
to size up a task, organize and motivate a team, and respond to inevitable obstacles such as
these: •Unforeseen setbacks
•Unrelenting deadlines
•Criticism and outside resistance
•Personality conflicts
•Financial pressures and temptations The insights that Swindoll draws from Nehemiah's wise administration will change your approach to leadership forever.
