Greetings!
 Daddy-God communicates daily with His children! He sends us encouraging words, answers to questions and signs that He is well pleased with us. Along our Christian walk, we wonder if we are ministering exactly where and doing what He wants us to do.
We wonder if our work in His great Kingdom is "Spirit-led" or "Self-Driven".

WORDS OF TESTIMONY
Hey Dr. Lewis, Sister, Sister, Sister..............I tell you the Lord is really using you in a mighty way as far as I am concerned! I have been in a fight all week end long with my health and then you send me this!!!! WOW!!!! God is so good and I keep telling you that He is using you to be a blessing to me. Thanks for letting Him use you and keep on letting Him do it! haha I also wanted to say a verse that helps me a lot: 2Chronicles 20:15 (NKJ) And he said, "Listen, all you of Judah and you inhabitants of Jerusalem, and you, King Jehoshaphat! Thus says the Lord to you: Do not be afraid nor dismayed because of this great multitude, for the battle is not yours, but God's! That says it for me, I know the Lord God is fighting for me and He is helping me to fight and to stand strong in the battle. Thank you again for the GREAT Word of God. AMEN! Love you much!! Evangelist V. L.
Fight, Fight, Fight, which I have since the beginning of this year. Thank you for the love and support. The Lord gave me renewel strength when I grew weary. When I went to Him He refreshed my heart and soul. The best time I needed was to devote more time to God. May God Continue to Bless You, V. C.
I have enjoyed the times when I have attended Dr. Lewis' class on Sunday evenings! I now look forward to coming and hearing a great inspiring Word from the Lord! Thank you, Dr. Lewis! G. E.
Thank you my dear sister,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,be bless---C. E. from Ark.
Hey DR.TL you will always be a part of my heart-thanks you for the talks. God has been so good and some times we don't see it. T. P.
Hi Dr. Lewis, Thanks for sharing the your newsletter - very encouraging. Be blessed and let God continue to use you. Warm regards, Lady T. H.
Dr. Lewis, This is N. (Dover, DE). I just wanted to let you know that I am truly grateful for how God is using you to minister to me even from California. Your messages are very inspiring, encouraging and today's message Fight! Fight! Fight! is right on time! I still have your message CDC! Commitment, Discipline and Consistency posted on the wall above my desk. I didn't want to let another day go by without telling you that I love you, I miss you and that your labor is not in vain. Be Blessed, Stay Encouraged, N.
Thank you so much for everything! I can't tell you the joy I felt when I saw my name on this prayer list & God turned right around & answered those prayers. However, I ask that you would keep my family upliftedas we are torn into pieces after the loss of my cousin on Friday. His name is Officer Julius Moore in St. Louis, Mo. The media has granted us no privacy, so the news of his accident was all over the various outlets. We know God has a master plan in taking this young man, a brother to me, & He'll guide us in His way. R. G.

Don't Ignore the Signs!
Ministering is not position-related; but a mandate for all Christians. We see persons who are powerfully used in the Kingdom and say wow if only we could be as effective as they!
But, we are just as powerful and effective! If we "Don't Ignore the Signs" which are the witnesses which Daddy-God sends our way, they will truly encourage and affirm our hearts.  "You blessed me", "God spoke to me through you", "I thank God for your ministry", "Your word or song was right on time and just what I needed", "We need your fellowship".

Don't Ignore the Signs!
Instead of receiving those words, we reject them and tell persons to give the glory to God. Yes, all glory definitely goes to God and persons whom He uses should definitely direct the glory to Him!!
But also, Daddy-God knows that we are seeking to please and serve Him! Therefore He sends encouragement along our way. This is why He shares those times of word-blessings with us; for there are so many other times God uses us to minister and bless others that we don't hear or know about. Therefore, we must learn to receive the signs of  affirmation and appreciation which Daddy-God sends to encourage our hearts that our living in not in vain. (Click Here)

Don't Ignore the Signs!
We must learn to say praise the Lord during those times. Also in the same breath, we must celebrate with them how good and loving Daddy-God was to share with us His children; our blessing of being the one He used and them being the one who received the blessing. 
Celebrate with the Spirit of God as He celebrates us through the signs! Stop, look and listen to Daddy-God's affirmations assuring us to continue doing what we are doing. Remember that whatever we do to enrich, encourage and bless other people's lives is ministry.
Daddy-God wants us to serve Him for the rest of our lives; so He gives us signs along the way to let us know we are on the right track.

Matthew 5:8, Blessed is the pure in heart for they shall see God. D.G.
I just wanted you to know that I miss ya, I miss seeing you; but in the absence of those facts the subscription to your site has kept me going, kept me inspired and always has just the right nuggets of encouragement and songs that I need for what I call the toughest and darkest time of my life. What you produce is simply AWESOME! and I so appreciate it, looking forward to what is coming next. I love you, may God continue to richly bless you and your ministry, such a help to help others .Because of Calvary, love you much. Lady L.
Hello Dr. Lewis, I especially liked 1 Timothy 6:12-We have confessed before others that God will fight for us therefore we must show this to be true with ourselves by living our confession. P. E.
All of the quotes spoke to my heart and spirit. In times such as these, with so many people hurting due to so much violence, corruption, and sin. Each of us must do as Galatians 6:2 states - "Bear one another's burdens, and so fulfill the law of Christ". We cannot stand by and do nothing. Our Lord has not given us a spirit of fear, and each one of us can make a difference. There is great joy and victory in doing what the Lord commands. Blessings J. P.
Hi Dr. Tonya-Thank's so much for the e-mail-it lets me know its not over. It still amazes me what a song, a kind word, a smile or a good deed will do for someone's day. You did it for me today that's why I love you sister in Christ. Stay blessed and keep on building up his kingdom-Sister T. W.
Love you with the love of the Lord--Thanks--A. W.
What an excellent, powerful, appropriate, anointed on time WORD!!! U R SO RIGHT,RIGHT, RIGHT!!! Pastor P. B.
Deuteronomy 20:3 This is my verse that stands out to me the most, cause I have times of panic, but the Lord is always there to let me know that He is with me no matter what is going on in my life, as a matter of fact I am His and My life is hidden in Him. So, God keeps me on my toes, and makes sure I keep fighting the good fight! L. V.

Hi Dr. Lewis, First, I have to say thank you so much for the weekly emails. I always look forward to reading them. It is amazing how God works. Just the other day while I was at home getting ready for work...I had stopped what I was doing, turned off everything and had a little talk with Him, (Daddy-God). I wanted Him to know how thankful I am for what He has done and what He will do. Also, I asked Him if He could give me strength, because there are times I am weak and scared. As I was talking to Him I started to cry and I knew instantly that He had heard me. I Love Him and I wouldn't have it no other way...nothing can take my feelings and joy from Him. Here are the scriptures that stands out to me that's tells us to fight! Deuteronomy 20:1 -"When you go out to fight your enemies and you face horses and chariots and an army greater than your own, do not be afraid. The LORD your God, who brought you safely out of Egypt, is with you! Exodus 14:14-The LORD himself will fight for you. You won't have to lift a finger in your defense!"Enjoy the rest of your week and I can't wait to read the next Nuggets for your soul !!!!! Thanks Ms. Lewis, Much Love F. =)
I enjoyed the videos very much. My soul was truly blessed. Hazel Ortega
Good morning,.... Thank you for sharing the message. I read all of your emails "nuggets for the soul". Then I pass it to others to read, so they too can be blessed with spiritual food.. Thank you, lt was nice sitting next to you In church, see you the following Sunday.. Have a blessed week.. Love you much!!!! M. G.
Thank you Dr. Lewis. I thank God for you... Although I have the tears sometimes. I still stay Knowing Daddy God is in control.. That is my focus,, Day in and day out.. God Bless you.. I will be in touch, Thank you Dr. Lewis, for all your prayers.. I feel the strength of the Lord, in me and I truly grateful for the covering of his blood. J. J.
Dr. Tee, this reminds me as to what I was trying to convey on last Sunday in the Overcomers' class. There comes a time when we as Christians have to rely solely on God to fight the battle for us, but we have to execute His word in a dangerous situation. For example, when we know that we know that we are in close proximity with the criminal elements, we can call on God to raise His right hand against the Devil and his co-horts where the elements are residing. (Lam. 2)...11 Chron.20:14-15). The Scripture reminds us also that signs do follow His Word as God performs it. Dr. Tee, I rejoice every morning when I wake up because I believe I receive in my heart that God performs His Word each time I speak it, especially that area where Satan and his co-horts are failing miserably in carrying out their evil schemes. I believe. Thank you, again, Dr. Tee, for reminding me about walking in love. I shall speak to Satan's co-horts but not get involved in conversations with them. Love B. H.
Dr.Lewis, thank you as always and how have you been? Miss seeing you for a while now. R. K.

Scriptural Reading ( NLT)
Matthew 25:31 "But when the Son of Man comes in his glory, and all the angels with him, then he will sit upon his glorious throne.
v. 32-the nations will be gathered in his presence, and he will separate them as a shepherd separates the sheep from the goats.
v. 33-He will place the sheep at his right hand and the goats at his left.
v. 34-Then the King will say to those on the right, `Come, you who are blessed by my Father, inherit the Kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world.
v. 35-For I was hungry, and you fed me. I was thirsty, and you gave me a drink. I was a stranger, and you invited me into your home.
v.36-I was naked, and you gave me clothing. I was sick, and you cared for me. I was in prison, and you visited me.'
v. 37-"Then these righteous ones will reply, `Lord, when did we ever see you hungry and feed you? Or thirsty and give you something to drink?
v.38-Or a stranger and show you hospitality? Or naked and give you clothing?
v.39-When did we ever see you sick or in prison, and visit you?'
v.40-And the King will tell them, `I assure you, when you did it to one of the least of these my brothers and sisters, you were doing it to me!'
v. 41-"Then the King will turn to those on the left and say, `Away with you, you cursed ones, into the eternal fire prepared for the Devil and his demons!
v. 42-For I was hungry, and you didn't feed me. I was thirsty, and you didn't give me anything to drink.
v. 43-I was a stranger, and you didn't invite me into your home. I was naked, and you gave me no clothing. I was sick and in prison, and you didn't visit me.'
v. 44-"Then they will reply, `Lord, when did we ever see you hungry or thirsty or a stranger or naked or sick or in prison, and not help you?'
v.45-And he will answer, `I assure you, when you refused to help the least of these my brothers and sisters, you were refusing to help me.'
v. 46-And they will go away into eternal punishment, but the righteous will go into eternal life." |
