Empowering Int’l Ministries’ 20th Anniversary is Today!
It’s Empowering International Ministries’ 20th Anniversary! Twenty years ago today, EIM was founded, December 21, 2001. It’s hard to believe it has been twenty years. God has amazed me. I have lived a life led by the Holy Spirit and what an adventure! Many people have been saved, baptized, delivered, healed, restored, and baptized in the Holy Spirit, and launched out into their calling. Many have their own ministries today, to God be all the glory and honor. This ministry is all about Jesus and Him being exalted everywhere I go. I am so grateful for every person who has crossed my path and those who have helped me build the Kingdom of God! You have no idea the lives that have been touched. All glory and honor be to King Jesus! I am looking forward to the adventures set before me in the coming years. I thank God for my health, strength, and endurance to serve Him and others like you. Ministry is all about serving others! I am blessed to do what I was created to do!
I like to think of Daddy God, as Jehovah Sneak-a-roo at times, He will just sneak up behind you, and BAM! Changes everything! I never dreamed I would be in the ministry. I felt led to start a Book Club in 2001 while I was working full-time selling real estate. I chose a secular book, ‘Get Out of Your Own Way!’ Prophetic I’d say. Every week we talked about a different chapter and suddenly out of nowhere each would begin sharing, many times through tears. We would all gather around the person and pray for them. Many times, healing and deliverance took place, by the end of 2001 I was feeling the call of God to launch out into the deep, and by faith I did. My grandparents were my Pastors growing up and just prior to their death, they passed their mantle to me. I didn’t feel a thing for ten years! Today the ministry looks nothing like it did in the beginning. I know God has called me to pull people up, push them out, and position them for their calling.
It seems God takes joy in stretching this little girl who grew up on a dirt road in the country in Bald Knob, Arkansas with very humble beginnings. Whatever door God has opened I walk through it! My motto has always been for myself, ‘Do it afraid!’ I trust God with every fiber of my being so if He says, do something, ‘I obey!’ The scripture I stand on is (Matthew 19:26) With God All Things Are Possible! I just believe God is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that works in us. (Ephesians 3:20) I have been so blessed to walk in the anointing with miracles, signs, and wonders following me. (Mark 16:17-18) It is an amazing gift from God to see the fruit everywhere I go. Only God could do such wonders and miracles, and I give Him ALL the praise, honor, and glory!
Everything from the beginning has always been birthed in prayer. Prayer and time with the Father, and in the Word are of utmost importance to what I do. In March 2007, the Holy Spirit led me to begin writing Daily Devotionals five days a week, to my surprise almost fifteen years later I still feel the anointing to write them. The reason I do what I do is I am passionate about seeing God changes lives by the power of the Holy Spirit. The greatest gift God has given me personally has been to teach me by Jesus’ example how-to walk-in love, and how to love the unlovable. I am deeply thankful for that. My deepest desire is to please my Heavenly Father! I want every person whom I have met on this wonderful challenging faith walk to know I love you with all my heart and it is my honor to pray for you. I am humbled and thankful for the last 20 beautiful years to serve! I want to thank each of you who have partnered with me financially to help me build the Kingdom of God and I ask God to pour out from His abundant resource’s great blessings to you. Get ready, the best is yet to come!
