The Christmas festivities continue- on Saturday, the "Ladies of Calvary" enjoyed their annual Christmas Tea, complete with the table decorating contest. Among this year's entries were a Coca-Cola themed table and a country farm theme- the sponsor of THAT one got so carried away, she decorated herself! That just happened to be our own Pastor Vicki, who really got into it, by gittin into a pair of overalls! The ladies enjoyed a luncheon of a variety of soups and salads, teas & hot chocolate.
Sunday morning, Pastor Cheek continued the series "The Authority of the Anointing". This particular installment dealt with Anointing Prophets- not an easy one to preach, Pastor said. The life of a TRUE Prophet is not easy. The "Prophets" we see today don't resemble the Prophets of old very much. Instead of wealth, fame, and scores of adoring followers, genuine Prophets of God were basically the opposite. Pastor Cheek meticulously described the attributes of true Prophets of God, and also those of false and/or self proclaimed ones.
Seven responsibilities of a true Prophet that he highlighted were:
1. Proclaim the message of God
2. Foretell future events
3. Intercede for people
4. Anoint leaders
5. Perform miracles (not all Prophets)
6. Provide guidance and council
7. Rebuke sin and injustice

JOY to the world,
The Lord has come!
Let Earth receive her King!
