R 3 U á{éñ TÇà{ÉÇç ga cxäà Helping People Shine & Soar to the Glory of God Mission Statement: The Mission of Radiant Living Worship Center is to advance the cause of Christ through informative preaching, inspiring ministry, and innovative soul winning. To be a place where the anointing of God flows freely and causes all believers to be radiant, radical, and righteous and to shine and soar to the Glory of God. We Have To Get Out the Bowl If you've ever had a goldfish, you know just what happens to them. You put them in a little goldfish bowl and they just keep swimming and swimming trying to get out of the bowl. Then about three days later you have to put them in the other bowl. They live such short lives. The crazy thing is that when a goldfish is put in that little bowl, it starts to produce an enzyme that keeps it from growing. When you take it out of the bowl and put it in a big pond, it starts to grow and grow into everything it could possibly become. If only it could get out of that goldfish bowl. Are you in a spiritual goldfish bowl? If you get out now, God has so much more for you than you ve ever experienced before. He wants to introduce you to the big pond you were made for. God s people are restless to move out of the confinement of a spiritual goldfish bowl. Though you may believe all the right beliefs, go to all the right meetings, and do the right things, maybe you feel that there's something more. There is still a big pond out there God has prepared for you. He wants to do something amazing through you. He is asking you to be a rescuer of others who are in need of a life-changing relationship with Jesus Christ. Radiant we are bigger than our bowl. Deerfield is our stream. Broward is our river. Florida is our ocean that will unleash us unto the world. We are not meant to live and be flushed, but to Shine and Soar. As we celebrate the resurrection of our Lord, we must get out the bowl of cowardice, complacency, and conformity and tell a dying world that God has bigger for them.

These plans do not include evil (Jeremiah 29:11). Anointed and regressive, not; anointed and overlooked, not; you might be anointed and ignored, but sooner or later what s on you will surface.

In 2014 um coming forth and um not coming empty handed in spite of. The moment you begin to make progress, obstacles and challenges come. Progress, Success, and Obstacles go together.

2 Page 2 The GATHERING 2014 More what he gave you is not all he has Bishop Neil C. Ellis IN SPITE OF Mark 16:1-4; Matthew 28:1-5 God has planned a productive and progressive life for us; He has equipped and anointed us for the fulfillment of those plans. These plans do not include evil (Jeremiah 29:11). Anointed and regressive, not; anointed and overlooked, not; you might be anointed and ignored, but sooner or later what s on you will surface. Progressive even with our issues, pains, and struggles. Keep on pressing for the mark of the high calling (Philippians 3:14) People are waiting for the Kingdom minded to come forth and bring forth. In 2014 um coming forth and um not coming empty handed in spite of. The moment you begin to make progress, obstacles and challenges come. Progress, Success, and Obstacles go together. "A faith that cannot be tested is a faith that cannot be trusted". The women were discouraged, dismayed and disappointed; but not faithless. OF they faithless Obstacles: STONE, SEAL, GUARDS. IN SPITE OF, bought spices to anoint the body. MOVE IN THE DIRECTION DIRECTION OF YOUR OBSTACLES - you can't wait for others to help you, it s not their assignment it's yours. Stay focus: WALK AND TALK - while discussing the removal of their obstacles, they kept walking closer to their assignment. They looked up and saw what they were worried about wasn't even there. Some things that have you stagnant aren't even real (imagined, assumed). Matthew 28:2 And, behold, there was a great earthquake: for the angel of the Lord descended from heaven, and came and rolled back the stone from the door, and sat upon it. 28:4 and for fear of him the keepers did shake, and became as dead men. Those responsible for keeping obstacles in your way, and coming against you will be of no effect. This is the Season in your life where you don't fight pastors. Get in position Bishop, the time is now. I dare you to step out in faith take the risk and do it now. Anybody with a problem will be like dead men; they want to be big, but small got em. NOW no opportunity wasted Johnathon Zeigler QUIT TRYING TO DIE 1 Kings 17:12 God is going to give you favor in the midst of the famine. Don't allow your mouth to separate your life from God speaking Death to your destiny and Doom to your future. Widow, single parent, boy child w/o a father, living in the middle of a famine. Her position is so bad so she internalizes that what happened to everybody else is going to happen to her. No one to encourage her with scripture and bible passages. 3.5 years of no rain, Escapism sets in. She s only able to see based on what has happened in her past. Devine favor (kind to you) going beyond the natural rules. Nobody but God (Sarah having a baby at 99 and names him laughter). This is my year for the open door. Before it all started she probably had "girl power", but then all that became all doom and gloom, she became depressed. The devil is not fighting where you are, he is fighting where you are going. If you weren't going anywhere he wouldn't be fighting you. In the next 9 months, God is gonna do some things that will make you shout can't nobody do me like Jesus. Bad things happens to Holy Ghost filled people (intended to immobilize you to get you to stop seeing things through Gods lens). "Late in the midnight hour, God's gonna turn it around its gonna work in my favor". All I got is goodness and mercy. You're not giving your last you're giving the more. CDs available
