The Philadelphia Fellowship Consecration For 2015 The Philadelphia Fellowship 31 Day Consecration is pivotal and enhancing personally, scripturally and congregationally. Here is why: Personally, it is evident in Rev. 3:7-13 our Lord is quite knowledgeable of each of our personal activity within our church as He says in verse 8, 'I know thy works'. This intimate knowledge provides the thrust of His assessment. Your personal works provide this personal knowledge. Scripturally, we are out of His Mouth after we were in His Mind and we exist because He spoke us into existence. June, 2000 we became His Congregation, biblically 'we became His People' and Congregationally we are known as The Philadelphia Fellowship (Baptist). We are the people and church set as His Open Door for many. For 15 years we have been 'His people' and 'His congregation' without entrance into our own House. The reason, we have had too 'little strength' v.8 to make that happen. But, as 'The Angel' of the Church, I declare and decree, 'fullness of time' has arrived and in this year of 2015, our 'little strength' shall be assisted by 'keeping His word' and 'no denial of His Name', they are going to make us first partakers of that Open Door! Please review Luke 4:1-13 to grasp the details of the consecration Jesus, our example, went through as He prepared to begin His earthly ministry. Surely we are not Jesus, but we do have His Spirit and His dialogue with satan outlined before us. Defeat the normal diet you are presently engaged in for the remainder of this month. Make this consecration pilgrimage through Him, ask for His help and 'keep His Word' and 'don't deny His Name'! For your own spiritual growth and nurture, do this In His Name. Do You Love Him? Remember the theme of the Year ~ I Corinthians 2:9 ~ If you Love Him there is a promise to be fulfilled for you in 2015. Let's come out of this 31 Days Seeing What We Have Longed To See, Hearing What We Have Longed to Hear, Having Our Hearts Conditioned by His Heart and Realizing What He Has Prepared For Us who love Him! Educationally, we will be using 2 Books this Month. To help us with our Fast/Consecration, we will use J.J. Smith's10 Day Green Smoothie Cleanse. This is a #1 national bestseller. J.J.

"While the call of God is personal, the Initial Sermon presentation doesn't necessarily have to be. The special nature surrounding these four young men at one time being celebrated, has to do with all four revelations came within simultaneous time frames. Their approaches made me a bit overwhelmed, and even now I feel very pastorally pregnant at this time of my 37th year of ministry." Pastor Ronnie D. Joyner, D.Min .
