Mr.Obama visits Portland Maine

One of our ministry's team members informed me that Obama was coming to Maine, we didn't have the details till the day before but we prepared by purchasing Obama Bills. On April Fools Day Obama came, we were amazed at the crowds! Over 2000 people were lined up waiting to see him and well over 400 protesters were there as well.

Within 30 minutes we handed out the 800 + tracts we had and did some open air and witnessed to folks.

I was amazed at the diversity of the protesters. There was one man who stood with his huge signs with scripture and one saying Jesus is Lord, he stood quietly and I could tell he was praying. No anger on him, no malice, just a real concern for Obama's soul. We ended up standing with him and one of my twins held her Bible up high when Obama came through in his limo.

I realized more than ever that this was not a political issue but a spiritual issue. Obama does not know the Lord and therefore he walks according to the patterns of this world as well as his followers. More than ever we need to be praying for thr Gospel to go forth in power and that souls would be saved..only then will we see real change in America and all over the world. So let's go and preach the Gospel!

Here's pictures of this event.

Praise the LORD! Someone else seems to get it! I was so blessed by your comments regarding the reality that these things are not political issues, but spiritual. While everyone is passing on hateful emails about the President, and boycotting this & that, I have always vocalized that it is only by Gospel proclamation and prayer that this country will change, and people look at me like I have four heads. After reading your post, for once I didn't feel like I had four heads!

Thank you, Brother, and keep posting!

ALL for HIS Kingdom,
