Update about the Ministry


I know you guys have been wondering what is going on with the Ministry. The weather here has been very hot and humid and so the two weeks the people have stopped  coming because of the hot heat wave we have been having here and I can’t blame them. Now I’ve been there sitting under a several trees with a blanket so if anyone did show up they can cool off. And than I began asking myself Lord is the reason the people stopped coming is because of the heat? Needless to say I did not get a respond from God on that, He said you be there, regardless. Talk about a direct order from God. And so I go sit under my trees with water and a blanket and you know what. I not once felt the heat wave on me I did not once sweat or anything. It was if God put a cloud over me to keep me cool until the study was over. And I used that time talking to God and still having my lesson even though it was just Jesus and I. There was a few people who would running during their exercises they must have thought to themselves why is this woman talking to her self?

I still don’t know what ALL JESUS has in store for this Ministry but one thing I keep hearing clearly and that is you be faithful and obedient. Some people might look at this and say “if the people stop coming because of the heat than you should stop but see that is what the enemy would love for me to do is stop. Did you not know that the elements of the weather we are having does not control God, God controls it. This is my verse I am standing on Romans 8:30 And those he predestined, he also called; those he called, he also justified; those he justified, he also glorified.

Yesterday I was in the bank and was talking to the teller letting her know I hold a bible study in baker park and she said really? I did not know that, I informed her I also purchase bibles and give them out to those who don’t  have a bible and she said,” wow that is good. I asked her does she have a bible and she said yes, but you know what? I said what, she said I don’t read my bible like I ought to, and so I said than today will be a good day for you to start and she said , you are right I will. And I will also come on my days off and tell others about your bible study.

Now here is the blessing as I was talking to her standing right next to me was a business man who listen intently and then the rest of the tellers stopped what they was doing and listen to what I was telling the teller clerk who was helping me.

When I finished my transaction  I said goodbye and called her by her name she smiled and said have a great day Desiray. Now imagine if you would the seeds that I planted in that bank? Gave the teller encouragement to get back into the word of God and a business man who listen and not sure what he even thought or what was going through his mind. But God had me there for a reason.

  1. Your obedience to God’s call is inspirational to me. I love the story about the bank teller. All we can do is keep planting seeds, God will make them grow!! Thanks for the uplift today

  2. Hi Desiray… Evangelising with a passion..
    I love your testimonies and what makes it authentic is that you are a living testimony!
    Blessings.

    • thank you Paul I do appreciate your heart felt comments about what I am doing for the Lord Evangelism is not easy as you probably know..but it’s must be done and glad enjoyed my testimony because I do my best to be real with what ever I do…amen..

  3. Hi Desiray; Looks like you are making good on planting seeds…Enjoy’d reading your update.. May God continue to Bless you sister… Bro Pat.

    • I am doing my best Bro. Pat.

      • Sister Desiray; When you’ve done your best, and you know that you’ve done your best , than thats all that you can do. “God will do the rest”… Blessings My Friend.

      • thank you bro. Pat I appreciate those words. I know I’ve done my best but I know there is more that I can do…and that is why I am doing this because it aches to see people reject Jesus. I know how my life was without Him and it could of been to late for me you know? I know Jesus does not want them to let it be too late for them either…His arms are not short that He can’t reach down and get them..but they have got to open their mouths and accept Him, I can’t make them but what I can do is pray for my city and state and get other churches to join in with me..

      • Amen sister.. I believe that you are right where God wants you. And He knows your heart. You used a very powerful word in your last comment.. “PRAY”… I believe that you are planting a lot of seeds.. Now… God will send down the rain… Can you say “PRAISE THE LORD”…. Bro Pat.

  4. Keep goin’ Desiray! God honors faith!

  5. I’m glad you’re being faithful to God’s word to you. I can imagine the pressure you must be facing with so many rational excuses coming to mind for why obedience of this kind does not really make any sense and therefore (we think) could not have a benefit.

    The verse you said you’re standing on piqued my interest. I couldn’t quite understand it or how you might be applying it to your situation, but that made me read it over a few times. When I did, I was struck by the fact that God has this whole process going on with you and I–predestining us, calling us, justifying us and glorifying us–He’s doing it all and no one can get in His way. It doesn’t matter if people think what’s going on with us is strange or not–their thoughts can’t rob us of the glory God’s going to work on us. Praise God!

    I pray God teaches you many excellent lessons through this time. :)

    • Thank you my friend and you just blessed me when you took the time out to find out what that verse I am standing on means..God is so good, I wrote it and He spoke to you to get an understanding of it.. And yes no one knows the struggles I go through and the things I have to endure…it gets hard and often times I find myself weeping sometimes I wish Jesus did not give me a heart of flesh where I can feel these things but He did and I can’t keep my mouth shut I am always telling somebody about the goodness of God…Thanks again and I hope you come back again…because your words really blessed my soul this morning…God always know who to send to give us that word in which we need and that was a Rhema Word for me…thank you.

  6. God bless you, Minister Desiray

    His positioning and timing are perfect ;-) As you said, you never know what will come of this . Praying lives will be changed to the glory of His name!

    Blessings
