About the author Dr. Nia:
Unconventional, unorthodox, and unapologetically me when it comes to ministry.
She believes the Word of God as stated in Hebrews 13:8 “Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever.” However, she knows that the changes in society and time mean that we must change how we convey the Word of God to this new generation. Nia’s ministry is to the downtrodden, the outcasts, and to those the church has given up on. She has a strong love and compassion for these types of people; she understands that deep feeling of rejection all too well. At one point, it was her. Her mission is to engage millennials with uncommon practices in inistry— practices that actually appeal to them. She then equips them with the Word of the God and all the necessary armor that they need for today’s battles. Finally, she sends them forth, empowered that they may bring others into the Kingdom of God.

I
want to tell you about my life story in how I overcame and survived sarcoidosis. In 2002 I married my best friend Jernel Cross and we had no idea about what we wanted in life but as happy as we were life was about to change for us. It took us no time thinking of starting a family together and my husband wanted to start right away. One year after being married, we decided to have a baby and what a bundle of joy God had blessed us with and it did not matter the gender, all we knew was that we wanted a healthy baby and God blessed us with a healthy baby boy named Kamron Jernel Cross (aka) KJ. Let me take you back a little before KJ was born. During my pregnancy my former pastor, Dr. Eugene Releford of New Testament Holiness Church of Cave City Ark. called in all night pray and fasting meet that took place for months and months even after KJ was born. I knew I wanted to be a part of it as well but being pregnant I knew I had to be careful. I wanted to part take in the prayer and fasting and get close to God for myself. I knew at that time God was preparing me for something but I didn’t know what that was and how he knew how strong I could be, you see sometimes life brings about changes and you have to roll with the punches even when you can’t see the blessings and power of what you are about to face. I continued to fast and pray even when I got home from all night prayer I would stay up and read my bible and pray. My husband worried about me and I
Untold Chronicles | 10
would always tell him to not to worry that God got it all under control. It’s funny that when I think back that God never left my side even when my faith got a little weak at times. After KJ was born in 2003, life was good and as a family we were enjoying every minute of our life together and couldn’t have asked God for nothing more. We had bought a house, gotten a car, had good jobs and was on the right track. Our one blessing that God had given us (KJ) was growing every minute, hour, day, month and year before our eyes and life was about to change again for us in this time for the bad. At the age of 25 years old, I went blind for two weeks and at that time I didn’t know what was happening to me. I went to in ophthalmologist in Batesville Ark and he didn’t know what was going on, he said Mrs. Cross this is something I have not seen before and I need to send you to a specialist right away. Dr. Davis sent me to Baptist Health in Little Rock Ark to Dr. Matlock. It took no time for me to get in with the issue that was taking place with my eyesight. I felt at that time that I would never see my beautiful 2-year-old son again due to what I was facing in life, no one was telling me nor my family anything we needed and wanted to hear. I was put on steroid eye drops and was sent home until my next appointment and things started to change with my eyesight and the steroid eye drops was helping and I was getting my eyesight back. Day after day there was progress in my vision,

“Weeks past and I started to have the different symptoms, like not being able to breathe, lesions on my legs and spots on my lungs. My life changed so fast and I went from wearing a size 7 to a size 18 ...” and I could see again. One day I woke up to start my every day routine in looked in the mirror and there on the left side of my neck was a knot, I called my husband to look at it as well to make sure of what I was looking at was there, I so wanted it to be NOT TRUE but I thought to myself “NOT AGAIN” I had just got my eye sight back and now no more than 3 weeks ago and now this. I went to see my PCP (Primary Care Physician) Dr. Roulier and she took in X-Ray of my neck and chest in sent me back too Little Rock to Dr. Matlock and he sent me to UAMS to see another doctor to get things checked out. The result was to have a biopsy done and have it sent off. I had the surgery done and on my next appointment to see what the diagnosis was and what the next step was for me. My mom was with me to get the results. We were sitting in this room waiting on the doctor to come in was the longest time ever because I really wanted to know what was going on. A knock on the room door came and the doctor came in and said, “How are you Mrs. Cross” and I stated I am fine. I just wanted him to hurry and let me know but as usual they had to check my heart beat, blood pressure and breathing etc. Then he set-down and said Mrs. Cross I hate to tell you this but
you have “CANCER”. The room was silent for a few seconds and I looked at my mom and she teared up and I teared up and a little fear came over my body, but I took control of my outer appearance and shock it off and said ok thank you so much. The doctor stated that he wanted to see me back in a few weeks never telling me what kind of cancer it was. I went home and told my husband and my pastor. Now let me tell you how fast my God is working in my favor. Within weeks of my appointment time God had moved in and placed a miracle on my life just that fast. I went to my appointment and the doctor came in and said Mrs. Cross I don’t know what happened, but you don’t have CANCER, but you do have Sarcoidosis. I had not ever heard of this sickness I asked the doctor what it was. He stated it is respiratory diseases that affect the eyes, lungs, thyroids, and immune systems. Weeks past and I started to have the different symptoms, like not being able to breathe, lesions on my legs and spots on my lungs. My life changed so fast and I went from wearing a size 7 to a size 18 in cloths due to the steroids and different medicine I was taking. I had never been sick in my life beside a small cold. Days, weeks, months and years pasted that I was back in Untold Chronicles | 13
“My life changed so much with fighting this disease and God gave me another chance to live one more time. I want to make the best of it and encourage people to never give up on themselves or their dreams in life. � forth to doctor appointments, in and out of the hospital from the sarcoidosis, inhalers, pulmonary function test, infections after infections, back spasms, sores on the bottom of my foot, loses and gaining weight, getting boils on my body and if anyone that had a runny nose or cold around me, I got. My immune systems were really messed up and I could catch anything floating in the air. When I said I married my best friend I truly did because my husband never left my side. One time I got really sick that I had to stay in the hospital for a whole week and my husband had to work because bills was still coming in from being in the hospital and take care of our one blessing KJ and our household. God knew the king I needed, and Jernel Cross was that for me, but I cried like a baby that whole week I stayed in the hospital by myself. We lived two hours from UAMS hospital in Little Rock Ark, but my husband prayed and worried about me, but we knew that God was in control of it all. We wanted to have another baby but with all the medicine I was on and how my health was at the time they told me that my baby was at a high risk of something being wrong with its health and well-being. My faith was all leaning and depending on God, but my husband and I Untold Chronicles | 14
made the decision to get my tubed tied. Years past and I went from testing every few weeks to every few months to every few years and finally they kicked me out and told me that the sarcoidosis has burned itself away and just to make sure to get a chest x-ray once a year just in case. Then, the time came the doctors said Mrs. Cross you do not have to come see us again, the joy I had and the relief that came over me was indescribable. God had healed me completely. I look back over the years that I was surviving Sarcoidosis. I say that my husband never left my side but GOD never left my side either. I want to let all of my Sarcoidosis survivors and the ones that are fighting this disease to never give up on God and never give up fighting. Keep wake up every day saying today is another day to take control over this disease and that I am an overcomer. My life changed so much with fighting this disease and God gave me another chance to live one more time. I want to make the best of it and encourage people to never give up on themselves or their dreams in life. We must never walk with our heads down. People always say that the sky is the limit but in my world the heavens is the limit. Until that day we reach there we have another chance to make every day our last.

“For 9 years I went through what felt like hell on earth being tormented in my mind. I lived in deep dark fear and a demonic realm ...” Most people will look at me and never be able to see the crushing that I had to go through to get to the point that I’m at today. And for that I am thankful for in my case it is true what they say you don’t look like what you’ve been through. This is my story of the redeemed. My name is Jenny Weaver most of you know me from singing the scriptures. Today I want to tell you how I got to that point. I remember as a teenage girl around 14 the 1st time that I cut my wrist. I’m not exactly sure why I did it or if I had heard of others doing it but it was something I felt compelled to do it to release the pain of my life at that point. I grew up in an abusive home my mom and dad were always splitting up and fighting. I grew up in a home where you weren’t told that you did well.
The words I love you were very rarely said. The struggle to know who I was was very real to me. I went through a number of different things in life trying to see if that would fulfill my life and give me a sense of purpose. Cutting my wrist, being homeless, experimenting with drugs, living a bisexual lifestyle, engaging in criminal activity, practicing witchcraft by spells and rituals, getting into physical fights with people and staying up all night day after day was my life. For 9 years I went through what felt like hell on earth being tormented in my mind. I lived in deep dark fear and a demonic realm that most people have not encountered. The one day I hit rock bottom and had nowhere to go, no friends and no one to turn to. I was hungry, thirsty and on top Untold Chronicles | 19
of everything I was pregnant and trying to still get high. Outside it began to rain and I dropped to my knees and I screamed as loud as I possibly could “God help me!” I felt a peace that I just knew everything was going to be ok. I don’t know how but I had an assurance. In a few days I found myself being rescued from the drugs and from myself. I was being put in a place where I could no longer get access to that life. I began to detox and in the rehab I began to surrender one thing at a time to Jesus. I’m not going lie and tell you that it was easy. It was one of the hardest things I’d ever walked through. It was the process of fleshly self-dyi n g and getting healing f o r deep wounds that had occurred over my life. After years of being in rehab and me having my beautiful daughter I got out and began to play the guitar and worship the Lord in my home. Out of that worship flowed a song from the Lord a spontaneous prophetic song. I had never heard anyone sing a prophetic song or a spontaneous song before so it surprised me that it was flowing out of me. I began to study this style of worship. During my healing process I had many encounters with Jesus and heaven Untold Chronicles | 20
that have shaped me and made me a sold out daughter of the most high King. I’m healed from rejection, healed from abandonment, healed from an orphan spirit, healed from anger, hatred, witchcraft and every manner of sin you could think of. I am a true testimony of who the son has sets free is truly freed indeed so for the rest of my days all of my life I will tell the world of his love and I will sing the song of the redeemed.

Relationship in Business By: Omekia McNeal
Relationships can make, break and or hinder the mission/vision of a business. It is vital to build long-lasting, strong and solid interactions when it comes to effectively being able to reach your intended goal. Covenant relationships a matter of fact is the way to go. This type is not one sided, not pretentious and does not have a hidden agenda. Let us be honest, it is already hard enough to find loyal and dedicated help then we have to be even more frank about the difficulty of getting to know others. Never-the-less it is something that can not be ignored or overlooked if you want to have a chance at running a successful business. Healthy relationships take time, energy and maintenance and cannot be neglected once they have been formed. It is just like a marriage or a courtship, the two involved have to have some things in common, have an attraction to each other and or they have to mutually agree to spend time together. Now if they do not continue to nurture and feed their encounters then eventually, they grow apart and break up. It is no different in building relationships in business we have to be attentive and mindful of what others are doing, need and what they project. Relationships should always have a mutual benefit meaning all involved should expect and or receive the same treatment. Everyone should be encouraging, straightforward and all that other stuff that makes sense. Now will it play out like this all the time, absolutely not so the reality of it is do not let it discourage or waiver you in what you are doing. Continue to be you, keep a close eye on your surroundings and never let others take you away from what you have set out to accomplish. Untold Chronicles | 25

M
y husband and I were manipulated, but I didn’t think I was going to recover from it. We were befriended by a prophetess in the church and we became very close friends. In fact, our children would sleepover at each other’s homes and we would have Sunday dinner almost every week. She also showered our family with all kinds of gifts. I believed her to be a mighty woman of God who would always pour into me spiritually. Because I was so vulnerable and wanted so much to please God in everything I did. I was very trusting, and I opened myself up to all that she would tell me.
no good and in the end they would be exposed. My life would soon change, one evening while meeting with the first lady of the church we were attending. For some reason while sitting there just taking everything in, I began to ask her about false prophets. She looked at me with a look of wow she knows. She began to tell me what the Word of the Lord says about them. I then told her how I’d been having dreams of cats and wolves and how I did not understand the dreams. My head fell to my lap and I began to cry out to God as revelation was beginning to come to light of who and what I had been exposed to. The co-pastor and another elder who was present with me at this meeting began to pray over me. They prayed for God to cleanse me, to purify me of all unrighteousness and for God to heal my hurts and to restore me. They also prayed that God would help me to forgive myself. I can honestly say it was a divine appointment. The devil thought he had me, but Jesus came and grabbed me. I thank you Lord that the enemy was exposed. The next day the prophet was trying to call me, but I would not answer the phone. I just did not want to talk to anyone who meant my household harm spiritually. The good thing was we were getting ready to move to our next assignment.
One night I had a dream while I was sleep in the bed and a black cat was walking on my bed towards my face and I grabbed it, choked it and threw it across the room hitting my bedroom wall. At the time I did not know what the dream meant, and I did not receive an answer from the Lord. God revealed it to me at a later time. However, I began to have this dream constantly. So of course, instead of waiting on God, I asked the prophet of the church what she believed was the interpretation. She said that I needed to be careful of people who tend to be sneaky and up to no good. She also said the cat was a representation of the copastor/1st lady of the church. I kept in contact with our former leaders and we told them about the dream I had been having. The wife responded there The prophet’s husband came by our was someone around me who meant us empty home and stated that the prophUntold Chronicles | 30

et was trying to reach me and that he was wanting to take us out to dinner before we would leave to our next military assignment. We went with him to be friendly because we were not seeing him as being used by the enemy just the wife (prophet). But where there is a Jezebel there is usually an Ahab. He then said he needed to stop by his house and asked if we could come inside his home. While there, his phone rang, and it was his wife (the prophet) who wanted to speak to me on the phone. I prayed a short prayer as I was handed the phone and said hello. She then said, “Hello Tonia… oh I miss you so much and oh I just wish I was there to see you all off at the airport.” And then immediately she said, “Something feels different.” She recognized she no longer had a hold on me. She then proceeded by saying that she and her husband had a conversation and they have decided to leave the church. At that point I was a little taken back, but then I realized the enemy knew he had been exposed. I told her I had to go and to take care. In the days to come, God opened my eyes more and more. I began to ask God questions like; why am I just finding out about this person? Why did the first lady not tell me how this prophet was operating? Why did I have to go through a year of receiving poison? My spirit was so crushed. Before leaving I told God thank you for allowing me to complete our assignment and for giving me a better understanding of the dark world. On our way
to our new assignment; we made a vacation stop to Portsmouth, Virginia to visit my husband’s family. We were so exhausted from everything we had given mentally, physically and psychologically to the ministry; we needed much rest. I remember my husband and I going to a Christian books store and while there, I was going through the aisles looking for a good read. The Lord had my attention because I was drawn to a book called, “The Prophetic Ministry” by Rick Joyner. Immediately, the Lord told me to get this book; and I did just that. I felt an unction in my spirit to call our former leaders who were on vacation at that time. The wife informed us that the Lord had told her and her husband to get to their vacation home, someone you have not seen in a long time will be coming to see you. We told them we had to see them, and she said to come on down. When we got there, I was very quiet, sad, crying out in my spirit and they embraced our family with much love. We sat on their chair after a brief tour of her beautiful vacation home while our daughters would then proceed to another room. I began to apologize to them and how I had changed and was slowly disconnecting myself from them. Despite it all, her arms were opened to receive me. It was like the prodigal son in the Word of God. It was more of a celebration of welcome back. Little did we know that we would be going through a deliverance meeting, but we thank God for it. She and I laid out on her living Untold Chronicles | 33
room floor and I began to cry out to God, and she was crying out to God on my behalf. Tears flowed down my face over and over and would not stop. I had a lot of rooted issues, hurts, bitterness, fear and unforgiveness in my heart. I felt like a soldier who had gone out to battle who was wounded and needed my wounds to be dressed and healed. I knew I had to give it over to God so I could go forth in the things that God had called me to do. After praying, she said she heard in her spirit, “Psalm 91.” The prayer of protection.
had some questions about this continuous dream I had about a black cat. In this dream, I would be in my bed asleep and this black cat would jump onto my bed and climb over me to where its head would be towards my face and I would grab it by the neck, choke it and then throw it against the wall. I know to some people you may say it’s just a dream, but for me I knew there was a meaning and I wanted an interpretation. It would not be for another year later that I was speaking to a pastor’s wife of the church we had attended on the phone. She told me that she had prayed that God would show me the truth of what was happening at that time. I told her how I still wanted the understanding.
Remember healing only takes place when you are connected to true ministries of Jesus Christ. Don’t let anyone tell you that there’s no help for whatever’s afflicting you or your soul. Deliverance is real and is needed to be effective in the things of God, which is why so many false prophets and leaders are out God did just that! there preventing true healing. Don’t Ignore Warning Signs Unlike man, God will give you a new start, and I’m definitely one that God has given a new beginning. The next morning my husband and I got on the road and headed to visit his family in Virginia. While on the road, my husband told me that he heard the Lord say, “New beginnings, and that the spirit of excellence had just been imparted.” I was praising God for that word, but I Untold Chronicles | 34
The same night while sleeping, I was in a deep dream. I was sleep, but my spiritual eyes were opened. It was as if it was the same dream before when I was having the dream about the black cat, but this time I was in my bedroom in my new home at another military base. While lying there in my bed, yet still asleep, I saw the prophetess wearing a black mini dress walking back and forth at the foot of my bed. I could see that she was saying something, but I could not tell what she was saying. I then saw the pastor’s
wife walking back and forth at the foot of my bed, but she was praying to the Lord saying, “Lord I thank you that they are righteous, Lord I thank you that they are righteous.” She kept repeating this over and over. As she would pray this over and over, the prophetess would be yelling at her saying, “No, stop saying they are righteous, stop it.” It was as if this was going on for about 30 minutes back and forth. I then sat up from my bed and I said to the prophetess, “What do you mean stop saying they are righteous?” I then grabbed her by the neck and choked her (remember it’s not flesh and blood that we are fighting against but against rulers, powers, principalities and spiritual wickedness in high places). I was praying and warring in my prayer language. As I was still choking her, she began to fall on my bed, and I threw her body against the wall and she then turned into a snake and slithered away. I woke up from the dream like I had been in a fight. I was overwhelmed, emotional and I started crying hysterically just from the thought of it. I woke my husband up and told him what happened. He looked at me kind of puzzled, but he grabbed and held me close to him and comforted me saying, “Everything was going to be okay”. I then rolled over from him and fell back to sleep. I fell again into a deep sleep yet again into another dream. This time
I saw many of the women the prophetess would minister to and invite over to dinner at her house and I would be there also. As I said before, she was always giving gifts to people. So, I did not find this strange because I came from a ministry of giving and sowing seeds to be a blessing to someone. But in this dream, I saw these women opening one box at a time. The first box was opened, and it contained a white plate and the woman would raise it up out of the box but inscribed on the front of the plate was multicolored words written backwards going all around in a circle. When they would open the second box, they pulled out gothic wine glasses and on the rim of the glasses was an inscribed multicolored message written backwards. I had no idea what this message was, but I knew it was a curse. After this I remember waking up from my dream frantically. I started crying again emotionally to my husband waking him up to tell him what had happened. While being comforted by my husband, I heard the Lord tell me to get rid of everything she has ever given you. Utterly destroy! I did just that. I felt a freedom like never before. Glory be to God!

Your Attitude Equals Your Altitude By: Gerald B. Colson Your Attitude Equals Your Altitude. I heard a great message on this taught by my First Lady Dr. Marjanita L. Ripley at church one Sunday. She talks about how too many people complain about where their life is at now and what they don’t have. She went on to say that you have to examine your own attitude and that can be the cause of your current situation or status in life. Too often we want to blame others for our on short comings and not take responsibility ourselves. Your attitude tells a lot about you, your character, your thinking and your maturity level. People may think just because their chronological age that you are mature, sadly that is not the case. Your altitude in life is really dependent on your attitude. The bible tells us “For as he thinketh in his heart, so is he” Proverbs 23:7. So what do you have to say to God about that? We all need to check our attitudes from time to time I know I do. We can so easily get offended because someone didn’t speak to us or say something nice about what you have on. My Pastor Dr. Joseph M. Ripley, Sr. has a saying that I try to live by “When you find an excuse don’t pick it up”. Sadly, far too often people pickup those excuses causing them to become weighed down. All this extra weight starts to affect your attitude. Unfortunately many times those effects are negative effects giving you the “Glass is half empty perspective”. So what do you do? In my opinion and yours may be different. I go to what the Word of God says “You, dear children, are from God and have overcome them, because the one who is in you is greater than the one who is in the world.” 1 John 4:4 NIV. The one living in you is the Holy Ghost who gives us power over him (the devil) who lives in the world. Jesus said in John 10:10 KJV “The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full.” What having life to the full means is having success in your life, achieving you dreams and desires as long as the line up with God says. If you are not a Christian and not a follower of Jesus then you’re going to have to work that out then. I’m a Christian and my faith is important to me as it is to many. I’m asking Jesus to help me change my attitude because I want to change my altitude. “YOU WILL NEVER SOAR WITH EAGLES HANGING WITH CHICKENS”. Simply put change your change your thinking you will change your life. Stay Encouraged & Be Blessed I’ll See You On The Road to Success. Untold Chronicles | 39
